General question upgrade to v.0.8

Post by Jr Prod »

Hi, I've just upgraded from S9Y 0.7.3 to the latest version. I had some problems, but now everything seems to work correctly. But I've got 3 questions :

1) Calendar - the calendar is too big now, because it shows 3 letters for each day. Is it possible to reduce it, as it was before ?

2) Themes : I'm using the Serendipity v2.3 from Tom Sommer. It's great, but it is not optimized for the 0.8. I saw that you've bundled a newer version : RTL-Languages v0.1 also from Tom Sommer. But it makes me some strange things. Everything is aligned to the right. Texts, smileys, images...
If you write "hello ! :-)" it becomes ":-) ! Hello". My two menus ale also interverted - the right one is on the left side and the left one is on the right side. (See on my blog http://www.fosenbauer.com/blog the calendar is on the right side. When I use the RTL-Languages v0.1, it's on the left side...).

3) In the administrators panel, what's the "frontpage" for ? It shows me only "Bienvenue, Pavel". Is that correct ?

Thanks for your answers, and thanks for this new version : great job !

1.) You can reduce the calendar issue by editing the plugin_calendar.tpl file. Just replace this:

Code: Select all

{$dow.date|@formatTime:"%a":false}
with this:

Code: Select all

{$dow.date|@formatTime:"%a":false|truncate:2:'':true}
This will truncate the string after 2 characters

2.) RTL languages means "Right to left languages". So don't use it for Left-To-Right languages. The default templates in fact is suitable for 0.8.

3.) Yes, that is currently correct. In the future or serendipity 0.9 (or some plugins) there will be an overview panel.

Great you enjoy the new version! :)

Rgeards,
