Bluetrait 2 development update

Michael Dale

I've been doing a fair bit of Bluetrait 2 coding since my last post about it, so I thought I'd post an update of where I am up to.

Category support is now working. Which is awesome, because it includes full breadcrumb support:

I will expand this to include browsing through the full breadcrumb. This will improve navigation throughout the site.

Other features that I have been working on include:

• Full 404 handling support with custom styles


• Plugin support that can add custom content types


• Customizable peramlink formats


• Overriding site details with a settings file (i.e. domain name etc)


• Pluggable functions


• MySQL and SQLite support


• RSS support


• Templating Tags


• UTF-8 support


• Theme support


• Graceful error handling (i.e on database failure generate an email to the site admin)


• Event Logging

So there is a stack of stuff that has been done. I can't wait until enough has been done so that I can upgrade this site!

Subversion access can be found here (please note it isn't ready to be used on any website yet).
