Thu, 15 Dec 2011 02:49:16 +0000 Brian Neal Moved the imports from the top of the file into the task function. This seemed to prevent some strange import errors that only occurred on the production server. I don't know if the problems were related to mod_wsgi or Python 2.5 or what.
Thu, 15 Dec 2011 00:59:32 +0000 Brian Neal For #194, add a celery beat task for Django & forum cleanup.
Wed, 14 Dec 2011 02:41:15 +0000 Brian Neal For #194, convert the POTD management command to a celery task.
Tue, 13 Dec 2011 02:37:50 +0000 Brian Neal Minor tweaks to base settings.
Tue, 13 Dec 2011 02:07:55 +0000 Brian Neal Using celery to send mail out of the request/response cycle.
Sun, 11 Dec 2011 21:31:10 +0000 Brian Neal Adding in Celery to the settings so we can try to get it running in production.
Sun, 11 Dec 2011 19:50:32 +0000 Brian Neal Converted production environment to a virtualenv; had to tweak some paths and the .wsgi file accordingly.
Thu, 08 Dec 2011 02:25:22 +0000 Brian Neal After creating a virtualenv (finally), adding a requirements file.
Wed, 07 Dec 2011 01:08:54 +0000 Brian Neal For #237, use Redis as the source of posts for the RSS feeds to hopefully eliminate some slow queries.
Sun, 04 Dec 2011 19:53:27 +0000 Brian Neal Created a centralized spot to get a Redis connection so that settings can be managed in one place.
Sun, 04 Dec 2011 03:05:21 +0000 Brian Neal Some users are still having problems with the pop-up login. I think they are actually getting 403s because of the CSRF protection. So I have modified the base template to always have a javascript variable called csrf_token available when they aren't logged in. The ajax_login.js script was then modified to send this value with the ajax post. Fingers crossed.
Sat, 03 Dec 2011 20:46:41 +0000 Brian Neal Added the rate_limit_clear management command, to delete IP addresses from the rate limit datastore.
Sat, 03 Dec 2011 19:13:38 +0000 Brian Neal Refactor the logic in the rate limiter decorator. Check to see if the request was ajax, as the ajax view always returns 200. Have to decode the JSON response to see if an error occurred or not.
Sat, 03 Dec 2011 16:25:15 +0000 Brian Neal Made some tweaks to the ajax login javascript.
Sat, 03 Dec 2011 15:07:01 +0000 Brian Neal Changed the lockout time on logins to 2 minutes.
Sat, 03 Dec 2011 03:25:04 +0000 Brian Neal For #240, make the login dialog a bit taller so no scroll bar appears on Firefox.
Sat, 03 Dec 2011 03:14:13 +0000 Brian Neal For #240, tweaked the Javascript to be able to submit the form when enter is typed.
Sat, 03 Dec 2011 02:48:18 +0000 Brian Neal For #240, add an "ajaxy" login via a jQuery UI pop-up dialog to streamline the login process.
Wed, 30 Nov 2011 02:41:18 +0000 Brian Neal For #236, switch to a settings package scheme.
Thu, 24 Nov 2011 21:27:07 +0000 Brian Neal Removed the warning about AT&T and sbcglobal on the registration page. Added "text" classes to the registration text widgets.
Tue, 22 Nov 2011 01:25:08 +0000 Brian Neal Adding Ariel's (DreadInBabylon) awesome new news topic icons.
Sun, 06 Nov 2011 01:14:26 +0000 Brian Neal Backout last change. Stay xhtml for now.
Sat, 05 Nov 2011 18:10:30 +0000 Brian Neal Configure jPlayer to show hours in the duration.
Sat, 05 Nov 2011 15:54:53 +0000 Brian Neal Changed to HMTL5 in base template.
Sat, 22 Oct 2011 00:48:45 +0000 Brian Neal For #235, some minor news tweaks. The submitted by text is now a link to the author's profile. Only show 1 textarea to the user when submitting a new news story. The admin can paste into the 2nd one if needed.
Sat, 22 Oct 2011 00:07:50 +0000 Brian Neal Added a custom tag to display a link to a profile. Refactored the avatar tag to optionally display a profile link around the image. Removed the width and height attributes from the avatar image tag. I think this was causing disk hits whenever those properties were not cached. The avatar tag is now an inclusion tag.
Thu, 20 Oct 2011 01:00:19 +0000 Brian Neal For #233; add social media sharing buttons to the photo of the day app.
Thu, 20 Oct 2011 00:36:37 +0000 Brian Neal For #233, switched to asynchronous loading of the social media sharing javascript. Also switched to Facebook's javascript SDK instead of using an iframe for the like/share button.
Wed, 19 Oct 2011 23:31:22 +0000 Brian Neal For #232, add some javascript to resize large images in user comments.
Wed, 19 Oct 2011 01:24:46 +0000 Brian Neal For #234, update jPlayer to 2.0.1.
