1.2.3 Release

February 21, 2007 by Benedict Eastaugh | 13 comments

Bugs bother us, so when they’re brought to our attention, we do our best to fix them. Tarski 1.2.3 is mostly a bug-fixing release, but I’m happy to say it comes with some new features too, albeit not of our making: two new translations, into French by Matthieu Mauduit and into Danish by Henrik Buchwald. Many thanks to both of them for their hard work.

The changelog is briefer than usual, but I like to think this is a good thing: there were fewer things to fix. A couple of them could have been classified as ‘tweaks’, specifically the Internet Explorer issues, but since they broke the proper display of some elements in that browser it seemed more accurate to call them bugs.

If we receive more translations before the next major version comes out, we’d be happy to release another iteration of the 1.2.x branch. All the details, as ever, are on the localisation page. It’s great that Tarski is now available in five languages (other than English), but we’d very much like to add to that. Various feature additions and amendments are planned to improve matters still further on this front, but if you have any suggestions don’t hesitate to post them on the forum.

Thanks again to everyone who’s helped us out with Tarski, particularly those who’ve contributed translations and brought bugs to our attention, and I hope you enjoy using Tarski 1.2.3.

Bugs and suggestions should be posted on the forum.

Comments Text Localisation

February 18, 2007 by Benedict Eastaugh | Permalink

As part of our continued efforts to make Tarski completely amenable to localisation, we’ve just fixed a few lingering issues such as the comment number text and the edit links, which until now couldn’t be translated without altering the core Tarski code.

An updated POT is now up. I know this has been frustrating our translators so it’s cheering to finally have a fix. If there are any other bits of text that aren’t yet localisable, please let us know in the forum or in the comments on this post.

In addition to this, we’re still looking for more translations for 1.2.3, so if you’re able to translate Tarski into another language (that hasn’t already been covered by someone else) please get in touch.

1.2.2 Release

January 26, 2007 by Benedict Eastaugh | 23 comments

Tarski 1.2.2 contains numerous bug fixes and tweaks to improve both Tarski’s stability and its flexibility.

The changelog has all the gory details, but here’s a brief run-down of the changes. Firstly, our wonderful translation team has expanded the scope of the Swedish, Dutch and German translations currently available to cover the Tarski Options page and a few other bits of text which were missed or omitted (by me, not them) during the initial localisation work.

As always we discovered our own needs exceeded what the software was capable of, so we’ve added several more theme hooks to allow the insertion of text or objects (adverts, for example) at the end of posts and pages, as well as the ability for you to write custom 404 error messages. Instead of just linking back to your front page you could link visitors to your archives or tag page, or include a search field.

This release should also be compatible with WordPress 2.1: we’ve updated various things like links listings and the navbar code to make them work with the new functions and database schema present in 2.1. If you find any incompatibilities between this release and WordPress 2.1, or that we’ve broken anything in WP 2.0.x, please let us know so we can get a patch out quickly!

Lastly, we’ve fixed a number of bugs and tidied up the code in various places. A number of little scripts have been made into functions and can now be found in functions.php, which leaves the markup skeleton a lot tidier and easier to read and amend.

Many thanks to all our contributors, especially our tireless translation team, and I hope you enjoy using Tarski 1.2.2.

Please post any bugs or suggestions on the forum.

Managed to break some things while attempting to update our 1.2.1 release last night, so the download will be unavailable until I can get them fixed up (hopefully later today). Sorry about this, folks. 1.2 is pretty stable if you want to use that in the meantime.

Fixed now!

There’s a brief (eight paragraphs is brief for me) article up on my personal site on translations, testing and community. If you can’t be bothered to read it (and I wouldn’t blame you), the gist of it is a big thumbs-up to the people who’ve helped us out with Tarski over the last month or so. We couldn’t do it without you (quite literally, in some cases).
