Defensio is an anti-spam service very similar to Akismet, except that they provide in depth spam statistics for your website.

I've just written a basic Defensio plugin for Bluetrait 2 and am giving it a test.

It looks pretty cool!

Massive

To enable php:

1. open terminal
2. cd /etc/
3. sudo cp php.ini.default php.ini
4. cd /private/etc/apache2/
5. sudo nano httpd.conf
6. uncomment the two modules: php5_module and fastcgi_module. They were at line 114 and 115 for me.
7. Use ctrl and o to save
8. reload apache (can be done from system preferences).

I just purchased myself an Apple G4 Cube!

The file server got an upgrade today. It now has 4x300gb HDDs in Raid 5 (about 900gb storage). The Raid controller works well, we were able to increase the size without any issues. Awesome.

After hacking my ipod, I installed Apache and PHP. I was successfully able to install the sqlite version of Bluetrait 2 onto my ipod!

There were some small bugs, I haven't yet pin-pointed them down yet but I believe it may have been due to the setup of PHP.

So yeah that was pretty cool, pointless but cool :)

damn, they were quick. I've disabled commenting.

I'll need to go and clear out the database tonight.

Sorry about the spam!

I got my ipod today and it's the only thing I've found that doesn't work with Vista 64bit.

Why does it need a 32bit version of windows?! itunes runs fine :|

The error message isn't even right, iPhone?!

Just a quick development update.

The following is a list of the major changes that have happened since Code Example 1:

• Commenting Support
• Future Posting Support (via cron)
• Cron Support
• Basic Adding Post Support (with Categories)
• RSS Comments on Posts (with user detail support)
• Database Session Support (all sessions are stored in the database)
• Jquery
• SQLite database support now mostly works
• Contact Form (will be a default plugin) + Mailer Class
• Improvements to custom content

There are a couple of things that need doing before I can upgrade this site to Bluetrait 2:

• Spam Filtering
• Search
• Content Support (for my projects page etc)
• Admin Page (yes I haven't started on it yet!)
• Migration Script (to upgrade database)

The cron support is pretty cool and really easy to use. It will be used in future to handle update notifications, session garbage collection and "monthly database maintenance".

On another note this site is now accessible via IPv6 (2001:388:c021::20), which has already seen traffic!

 

Looks awesome, my old ipod died a while ago, so I'm going to get myself one of these. Woo!
