Sat, 26 Feb 2011 01:28:22 +0000 Brian Neal Adding a script I had to write on the fly to filter out posts from the posts csv file that had no parent topics. MyISAM let me get away with that, but InnoDB won't.

Tue, 22 Feb 2011 02:11:26 +0000 Brian Neal Modified the implementation of the avatar tag to look for an attribute 'user_profile' on the user object. If present, this is assumed to be the profile. This improves the performance of the member list and some forum views.
Sun, 20 Feb 2011 22:12:06 +0000 Brian Neal Adjusting the auto-complete to only require 1 character minimum before querying, and return 15 results instead of 10.

Sat, 12 Feb 2011 21:37:17 +0000 Brian Neal Fix #148; Django now requires AJAX posts to present the CSRF token. Added code suggested by Django docs to shoutbox.js. Since shoutbox.js is on every page, it should cover all cases.

Sat, 05 Feb 2011 21:46:52 +0000 Brian Neal Fix a bug where you'd get an error when trying to delete a forum thread (topic does not exist). Apparently when you call topic.delete() the posts would get deleted, but the signal handler for each one would run, and it would try to update the topic's post count or something, but the topic was gone? Reworked the code a bit and explicitly delete the posts first. I also added a sync() call on the parent forum since post counts were not getting adjusted.
Wed, 02 Feb 2011 20:37:17 +0000 Brian Neal Updating home page text for #147. Several other minor tweaks; adding favicon.ico.

Thu, 14 Oct 2010 02:39:35 +0000 Brian Neal This is a first rough commit for #95, adding the ability to embed YouTube videos in forum posts. Some more polish and testing needs to happen at this point. I wanted to get all these changes off my hard drive and into the repository.
