Website progression

// January 25th, 2009 // News

The website is currently undergoing a huge re-production. Watch this post for updates. Click read more to learn more.

• User registration is now open. Click here to register.
• Forum is now open. Click here to visit or the link on the sidebar to the right
• ‘The Wall’ is up, this will be used in the same way Facebook Walls are used. Spam will be removed.
• Various feeds have been established in preparation for the coming podcast. Ignore the errors associated with it as the podcast is not quite up yet.
• The event calendar is now up. More to come to that in the future.
• Twitter is now up here. You can get text alerts to your phone as well through Twitter when items are posted.
• A share plugin has been established to share our content with friends around the world through various social networks (see the share button below for a list).
• Anti-spam filter online and working.
• SEO (search engine optimization) and Google sitemap plugins are now online and working.
• Pingpressfm plugin will now keep all the social networks in line with the main site through syndication. When a new post is added Pingpressfm will post an excerpt of that post across all the social networks used by us. In this case – Myspace and Twitter (more later).
• VipersVideo quick tagging plugin is now up and working and will make the process of posting/embeding videos easier.
• Users online will now be shown on the website near the bottom of the theme on the sidebar.
• Sidebar has now been modified into being purely widget based to allow for the users to customize the sidebar seemlessly accross all of the themes (designs) used in the future.
• Gravatar is now being used for avatars on the forum and comment section of the site. See Gravatar’s website for more information on how to get your own avatar. Note: It can take up to 10 minutes for the avatar to cache on the website. Also make sure that if you do sign up for one to use the same email that you used to sign up on this website otherwise the avatar will not display.
• WordPress stats for administrators added.

More to come later. I will keep updating this as the website progresses.
