bbsengine is a modular, object-oriented
application framework that implements and manages
templates, permissions, membership, database
access, etc. It currently includes modules that
allow for news, forums, links, and so forth.
Information regarding Project Releases and Project Resources. Note that the information here is a quote from Freecode.com page, and the downloads themselves may not be hosted on OSDN.
Template usage has been improved, making it less likely that the Webmaster needs to know PHP in order to make changes to the system. Several bugs were fixed in the code, including one in the sig module that would cause data loss when editing. CAPTCHA protection has been added to article comments and sig posts.
Use of the Smarty Template engine was improved,
and the way the forums work was redesigned. The
potential for SQL-injection type attacks has been
mitigated. Please note that this is a beta-quality
release.
This release added a new "rssfeed.php" module and a
helper application written in Python for polling websites for
their RSS feeds. The code was cleaned up by removing
unused functions and database tables. This release is
much more tightly integrated with PEAR's DB module and
should perform slightly better.
This release contains code cleanups, minor security fixes, minor feature enhancements, and relies upon PostgreSQL 7.3.x. There is now a sourceforge project called 'eros' used to track bugs, feature requests, downloads, mailing lists, etc.
