Updates

Posted on: 29th November 2011

Hi,

I have updated ldir (1.7.7), nothing major though it's just an update to the URL where it checks for the latest version number. It's now stored in a central place where other software I have developed checks it's version.

Over the christmas period, I am planning on finalising the Helpdesk system Wonderful Help 2 and releasing it for public use; as well as looking at the ldir code to see how it can be improved as it's a long time since it has had any major work developed for it.

The media library program is developing slowly with more features being planned. There are some optimisation issues at the moment but these will be addressed prior to release.

ldir roadmap – Update

Posted on: 19th July 2011

Here's a quick update on where ldir is headed in the near future.

  • 1.7.0 - Allow _GET parameters to be passed to the links generated.
  • 1.8.0 - Pass-Thru download action, to allow access to non web dirs.

Current version: 1.7.6
So the next major update will include a download pass-thru.
I also have a couple of optimisations to write in.

I've had fun writing ldir and hope to continue to support it after version 1.8.0 but I do not personally see anything past this version.

In other news, I have

  • Updated gg-sim.co.uk's download system.
  • progressed with whelp v2
  • and finally, kept up my average of 75% on my MSc with just my final project left.

Progress

Posted on: 28th June 2011

Progress has been slow, I've decided to take a few days break from working.

Wonderful Help2 (Whelp2) has not got a simple XML GET API for users and tickets, viewing tickets, deleting tickets and its replies and a simple control section.

There will be more development soon so keep checking back.

Today…

Posted on: 9th June 2011

Well today, I released an update to ldir, nothing major; the biggest change is the refresh link, which now doesn't refresh the icon cache.

I have also made headway on the development of whelp2.

whelp or WonderfulHelp is my helpdesk system that I wrote for Uni, well I'm now re-developing it to be more robust and useful.

This will then become part of my dissertation system nAdmin; the development of whelp will be recorded as part of my dissertation project.

Just a short and sweet post and dont forget to checkout ldir.
