Cut myself ’cause I can’t see the beauty
Feel myself ’cause I can’t see the light
Tell myself that I do not deserve this
Tell myself that I do not deserve this
I’m just a simple man
But I’m just a simple man
Tell myself the bad things are
Safe in a place where they’ll do no harm
It’s easier to see when I open my eyes
That all the bad things, that all the bad things are
In my mind
Are in my mind
But I’m just a simple man
I’m just a simple man
I’ve just completed an important update on the site, and I’m rather happy for the result.
First of all I’ve removed the old Xpress 2.0.5 module, that is WordPress for Xoops, which was not being updated since years ago and contained a very old version of WordPress. I was using this module to manage the News and Articles section.
Yesterday I discovered a new module developed by a japanese guy, which is named XpressME. This module seems to be an evolution of the previous one, and it’s rather updated, considering it contains WordPress 2.7, the latest version available.
This allows me to use all the most recent WP plugins, and particularly it helped me achieving Facebook Connect integration, something that I’ve been wanting to do for some time.
With Facebook Connect users can comment news and articles with no need to register on the portal, but rather using their Facebook account. When a user authenticates through Connect, his/her name and profile picture are automatically recognized and appended, and his/her comment is made visible on Facebook’s newsfeed to be visible to his/her friends on social network. Furtherly it’s possible to invite Facebook friends to join discussions on the site.
As soon as I’m done with testing, I will add same functions to UnixPortal.
