Version 10.1.0

Contents

  • Thanks
  • Caution
  • Improvements
  • Repairs

This release adds support for plugins, adds more
translations, and fixes some bugs in RSS feed and blog
generation.

1  Thanks

Laurent Vallar and Greg Weber contributed patches and
suggestions! :-)

2  Caution

  • The import task has been renamed to import_rss.

  • The gen task is no longer invoked when the Rakefile
    file changes.

3  Improvements

  • Added a plugins/ directory for non-essential Rake
    tasks. You can add your own files (which provide Rake
    tasks) into this directory and load them into your
    Rakefile.

    Currently, there is a plugin that provides a Rake task
    for importing blog entries from an RSS feed.

  • Laurent Vallar translated more strings from the
    templates for the French language. I have updated the
    Telugu and other translation files accordingly.

  • Comments are now omitted when an entry is summarized,
    because you would like the reader to fully read your
    blog entry before they make comments about it. {Greg
    Weber}

  • The Chapter#[] method now raises an error when you try
    to access an unknown section by name. It also lets you
    access sections by index or range—the traditional array
    access idioms. {Greg Weber}

4  Repairs

  • Entry content was omitted from RSS feed when summary
    was not available.

  • The “read more” link was omitted for summarized entries
    in the RSS feed.

  • Greg Weber suggested that the first HTML block-level
    element should be accepted as the summary of a blog
    entry (in addition to the current scheme of accepting
    the first “paragraph” of text) because the current
    scheme makes strong assumptions about RedCloth’s
    implementation.

  • The URL for author’s e-mail (at the bottom of config/
    html.erb) was being escaped twice. {Greg Weber}

  • Laurent Vallar and Greg Weber fixed the renaming of
    Rassmalog[:url] to Rassmalog[:website]. In addition,
    Greg Weber added protection to raise an error if such
    mistakes are made in the future.

  • The index.html file was not updated when the “front
    page” file changes.

  • Redundant nested <pre> elements were not being
    collapsed by config/format.rb.
