Well yeah, I haven't fixed everything in the bug reports yet, only those items that were reflected in the changelog which is posted at my site. I do have them in my TODO file though, so no worries

Thanks!

Regarding the short form PHP tags... I would much rather see this in a view file:

<?=$something;?>

rather than this:

<? echo $something;?>

or

<?=anchor("blah", "Blah");?>

than

<? echo anchor("blah", "Blah");?>

I don't know, I just think echo statements in view files are ugly. Certain things like foreach() are unavoidable unless you use the CI short syntax form of that as well, but I don't see much of a benefit from it.

I agree - it might be worthwhile to create a "settings" area where people can dynamically convert short-tags to the full-version tags. The code is already there in CI, you just need to make is user accessible via your control panel.

D13: I tend to agree on <?= vs <?php echo but <? gets highlighted as xml in some editors. Must be my lasyness than and not an actual problem.

About the template bug, I just want to say my appologies. I didn't RTFM...

Nice work Developer13!
I have only one suggestion - how about using utf8 for output, DB collation and DB connection charset. So, people like me who are using cyrillic charset should have no problems

InkType Alpha 2007.12.23.0 has been released. See the initial post in this thread for more info.

Excellent. I'll take this for a spin and see how things go.

I'll edit this post periodically when I find more issues with InkType.

Hmmm, post/page URL titles aren't being handled properly. For example, instead of showing a 404 page when I enter the URL title to something that doesn't exist, InkType gets freaky.

Nonexistent posts look like this:

http://localhost/inkType/index.php/blog/post
Posted in http://localhost/inkType/index.php/blog/category by on

While nonexistent Pages don't show at all, just the rest of the template.

When validation of a new post fails, InkType does not reselect the categories chosen upon submission.
