Frog CMS

Hi, Just a little post to let you know that FrogCMS Source Code is now on GitHub.com at: philippe/FrogCMS. I've planed to update the current version 0.9.5 with the last version I currently use for my client witch is a multilingual version of 0.9.4. ... [More] File structure has all been reorganized to fit under one folder "frog". I will keep you up to date with all that. For people that can't wait to have a official release they will be able to try the one on git. Hope you like your experience with Frog. Note: need a redesign of the backend to fit a vertical menu on the left instead of the top menu currently used. (not enough place with many plugins) [Less]

answer: YES Hello everyone, Lately, Frog CMS has been a huge slowdown in development. But today, I got fired from my job at OLA (no enough work for me anymore). This is good news in a sense, because it means I'll restart using Frog CMS and there ... [More] will be a lot of big development in the next months. For those that was asking if Frog CMS still alive, that was a answer for you too. Have a good day everyone and do not forget to always be ready for any change in your life and in your job. (Who Moved My Cheese?) Philippe Archambault PS I am a freelancer now, so open to suggestions. [Less]

Since the release of 0.9.5 (stable), this blog has been a bit quiet — the devs are away! But the community has been as active as ever. Here, for example, are four recent user-contributed plugins. They are in differing states of development, but ... [More] worth checking out if they suit your needs: Page part forms – gives designers and developers the power of “custom fields” for pages in Frog’s backend; Themr – provides a single-click theme switching facility; Leapfrog – is an events-management plugin (which is not yet in general release); and WYMeditor – adds the well-known WYSIWYM text filter for authoring in the backend. All of these plugins, and many more, can be discussed in the Frog Plugins forum. Many thanks to these plugin developers, as well as others who have done so much to enhance Frog and enrich the user community! [Less]

The Frog development team is pleased to announce that we’ve released Frog 0.9.5 stable. Some major changes went into this release which make this a significant step towards a 1.0 release. We would like to highlight some items in the changelog: ... [More] For plugin developers, it will be interesting to note that a number of API calls were added that will simplify the work of creating a plugin and should generally speed up development. These are: Plugin::isEnabled($plugin_id) (allows for basic plugin dependancies.) getSetting($var_name, $plugin_id) setSetting($var_name, $value, $plugin_id) getAllSettings($plugin_id) setAllSettings($array, $plugin_id) We also added a new core plugin called “skeleton” to help out new plugin developers by setting up a basic plugin as an example. In other news, we’ve added a translation template generator to help out translators with translating Frog core and plugins. Please see the comment & link on the right side of the Language selector in the Settings tab of the Administration section in Frog. We’ve also removed the split that existed between the frontend and backend in Frog 0.9.4. We also fixed a long standing problem with GET variables not being available in Frog’s frontend. Lastly but certainly not least, we’ve changed the license to GNU General Public License version 3 for Frog and all of its core plugins. Frog uses the GNU GPL with an exception for plugins which allows plugin developers to choose a different license for their plugin under certain conditions. Please see exception.txt in Frog’s root directory for the full text. Please see the download page. List of changes in 0.9.5 stable Added experimental Global XSS filtering, by default turned off.

Enhanced comments in config.php template Upgrading to Frog 0.9.5 Please be aware that we only support single version upgrades. That means you upgrade from 0.9.3 to 0.9.4 and only then to 0.9.5. If you’re upgrading from a pre-0.9.4 release, consider installing from scratch. Please be aware that all Frog 0.9.4 plugins except the core plugins will require some minor updates to work with Frog 0.9.5. Please check with the plugin authors for updated plugins. Upgrade steps from 0.9.4 to 0.9.5 WARNING – The split between frontend and backend in the Frog code has been removed in this version. This has led to significant code and path changes. You will need to update ALL files and directories. Please remember to MAKE BACKUPS of Frog and your DB before trying to update! The upgrade sequence described below will remove all the old files. Be sure to have a full backup! Note: consider testing this upgrade process on a local test system before upgrading your production system. PLEASE READ THROUGH ALL OF THE STEPS BEFORE STARTING THE PROCEDURE. 1. Create a FULL backup of your database. (structure and data) 2. Create a FULL backup of your all your files. (including config.php) 3. Download and unzip Frog 0.9.5 to a temporary directory. 4. Remove the following files/directories from your temporary 0.9.5 directory: – The “public” directory. – The config.php file. 5. Login to the admin section of your 0.9.4 installation and disable all plugins. (plugins generally shouldn’t remove data from the database when being disabled, so this shouldn’t be a problem.) 6. Remove ALL the files of your old Frog 0.9.4 installation EXCEPT the “public” directory. (and except any custom files you may have added of course) 7. Copy/upload ALL files from the temporary directory to your old 0.9.4 Frog installation’s directory. 8. Copy the original config.php file to your new installation. 9. Run the following SQL commands on your Frog database after adding a prefix to the table names if necessary: ### NOTE: MYSQL commands, but SQLite commands should be almost the same. CREATE TABLE `plugin_settings` ( `plugin_id` varchar(40) NOT NULL, `name` varchar(40) NOT NULL, `value` varchar(255) NOT NULL, UNIQUE KEY `plugin_setting_id` (plugin_id,name) ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8; ALTER TABLE `page` ADD `needs_login` tinyint(1) NOT NULL DEFAULT '0' COMMENT '' AFTER is_protected; ALTER TABLE `setting` MODIFY `value` text NOT NULL DEFAULT '' COMMENT '' COLLATE utf8_general_ci; 10. Enable the new htaccess file by removing the underscore. 11. Check the new htaccess file settings against your old htaccess file. 12. Lastly, you need to add some options to the config.php file that were added in Frog 0.9.5: // Should Frog check for updates on Frog itself and the installed plugins? define('CHECK_UPDATES', true); // The number of seconds before the check for a new Frog version times out in case of problems. define('CHECK_TIMEOUT', 3); 13. Re-install any old plugins that your Frog installation were using. 14. Re-enable the plugins one-by-one, each time checking your site remains working. 15. That should be it! Test out your new Frog 0.9.5 system. Remember to remove the write permissions from config.php, otherwise, Frog will complain. Troubleshooting / notes - If you don’t see your old comments in the administration area, try disabling and then re-enabling the comment plugin. - The plugin system was changed in Frog 0.9.5 so try to download and install plugins that are compatible with Frog 0.9.5. Older plugins may or may not work. - The public directory now contains a themes subdirectory in a default installation. It is advised that all themes for Frog follow the same approach as the Normal theme. - It is advised to always use the htaccess file. You can dis/enable the url rewriting by setting RewriteEngine to On/Off. - Please be very aware that this upgrade procedure DID NOT TOUCH or upgrade your “public” directory. It also DID NOT ALTER or upgrade any data in the database. This means you’re still using a pre-0.9.5 Normal theme. [Less]
