Pumpin'! has a new layout! Like, three weeks ago or whatever, I kind of forgot. I don't really remember a lot of things that aren't muscles and manga, but I like this layout, because it's creatively the best thing I've made in two years (note: this is a terrible thing, shame on you for disagreeing with me!).

Listing Admin has also seen two bugfixes, the most recent one just being released fifteen minutes ago. Of course, the download link is the same as usual, and you need a member status and to be logged in to download it. Speaking of downloading! I've seen this thing quite a bit over the past three lifetimes I've left people hanging few months, and the thing that I'm kind of evading like I evade discussions of being a real adult: not registering at Pumpin'! but somehow getting a copy of Listing Admin. Don't do that, dudes; I know, I'm really shy, to the point that it hinders me and it's kind of a medical condition, who knows, but that's not cool. I know it's frustrating to have to jump through two loops and points C and F to get back to point A, but it's not hard, and if you don't want to register, I can always sent it via e-mail. Please don't get it from other sources, as they might not have the latest version. It's for your script protection, like the MIB! KIM Admin 1.2 is being released later this week; this may or may not be related to what I just said.

This latest LA bugfix will also be the last, and the next release of Listing Admin will be version 2.4, because I'm a little shit when it comes to being consistent. If anybody has any feature suggestions, or something they want to see more of, shout it out loud!

It took me a long time to come up with a way to say, "OH HAI I HATE MY OWN SCRIPT, LET'S PRETEND THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN", but I've often played around with the idea of letting Listing Admin go (of course, this would be with support + bugfixes). It's quickly spiraled from something fun and hip (for me, as a nerd, to create, to manage, and to code) to something morbid that I put off for ages, because I didn't want to deal with it. While it's made me feel all gooey and fluffy inside to know I've made people happy, the process of managing Listing Admin for other people is no longer making me happy.

I never thought I'd feel that way about something I created with my own two hands (figuratively, anyway!), something that means the absolute world to me, and I hate that. I hate that feeling, I hate it so much, because once my toe has been stepped into something, I'm there for life and I'm not backing the fuck down. It took me ages to to come up with a solution to something that I felt was hopeless, because I was feeling so despondent of Listing Admin, who still is and always will be my baby. It was only until recently (AKA THIS WEEK) that I entertained the idea of putting Listing Admin back under the 'member' status again, so it's not available to everyone who registers.

So, hello 2012, year of hopefully better things: Listing Admin is back to only being available to those with a 'member' status. If you're using Listing Admin and have a 'reader' status, you can comment on this post and I'll change it over in a jiffy. Any new registers from tonight, 8PM EST forward will be upgraded at my discretion, and with a very loud disclaimer of "IF YOU DOWNLOAD, YOU WILL CRY. TEARS OF BLOOD.".

Still in Listing Admin's corner, I'm listing some key things below for you guys before I release a bugfix this weekend. I posted some of these things to Pumpin'!'s Twitter » (which I update rarely, but it's still worth it to follow if you want to see me bumble after myself all the time), but some are new. Try them before e-mailing/commenting, and if they don't work, I'll send you over a quick bugfix via e-mail. :D

And before I run down a lit of million and one files — and because I didn't mention it before — a huge shoutout to Mayumi » and Saya », who were instrumental in getting Listing Admin 2.3 Alpha up and running. They were — unintentionally, I might add! — the best fucking beta testers for Listing Admin 2.3 Beta, and I owe them my first born sons, because they rock so fucking much. Hella: HELLA.

If you're still experiencing errors and need them fixed ASAP — especially if you're avoiding the Troubles lists at TFL and TAFL — shoot me an e-mail, and I'll get back on the fly.

But whatever, fuck that, 2.3 is here, and everyone can crosslist their shit. IT'S ALL GOOD.

Just go on to the Downloads page, and if registered, it'll be open for grabs for all users; make sure to replace all files in your admin panel with all the files in the .zip file, and edit rats.inc.php. It fixes a lot of things I won't list out of sheer laziness, but crosslisting, converting to and from scripts, and upgrading from 2.1.9, 2.2, and 2.3 Beta are the key features. Check out the « Documentation tomorrow for a full changelog on 2.2 to 2.3.

Note: For those of you waiting/have been waiting on an e-mail from me — expect one sometime tomorrow when caffeine is a little more on the brain!

Just head over to the Downloads » page and download the file (while logged in, of course)! ♥

Note: Keep in mind favourite fields are currently not included in the files; I'll be updating the file this Monday to include favourite fields.

ETA (10/10/2011): Uploaded the .zip file to include favourite fields for importing and exporting, as well as a bug for exporting Enthusiast members; if you exported a Enthusiast members list, download the file again, loves! ♥

So, new location! I wasn't able to renew the domain, so I moved it on over to Wyngs with a new layout I was planning. Errors, there will be those, and probably lots of them – I'm totally on it, but everything should be in working order in concerns to browsing and downloading scripts. :D

More news on Listing Admin, new scripts, old scripts and oldoldold articles coming soon! /smooches

I've been working on Listing Admin 2.3 steadfastly for the past seven months; I know I've pulled a ton of excuses out, but I promise you: I'm working on it. I've been going through a lot in my real life, and I just haven't had the time to devote to it as much as I like. Also, I blame written porn for... being written. And being there at all, really.

I've uploaded 2.3 Beta (which is not currently for download) to my two fanlisting collectives, so the development of the 2.3 release is about 75% complete. I was testing the forms when I came across an update form bug that doesn't encrypt the member's password into the database. I strongly and enthusiastically urge you to download « the fix (make sure you're logged in!), and to urge members who've updated their information to reset their passwords and then update their passwords again. I also want to apologise for taking this long with realising this bug, and for causing a lot of fits with the forms!

While we're on the subject of bugs: several users of Listing Admin have noticed errors in the comments, downloads and contact forms, and all of these issues should be fixed. I know Pumpin'! is a mess right now, but within the next week or so, this should all clear up! :D

1. The bugfix that prompted « this entry that erased a user's password. If you haven't downloaded the fix yet, now is the opportunity. ;)
2. Affiliate conversion that kept collective affiliates from being added!
3. Favourite field conversion! This was actually fixed in 2.2, but I thought I'd mention it to those who may have not overwrote the file. :D
4. Some little minor changes here and there (i.e.: I forgot, but it's important enough to include).

The 2.2 .zip file has been updated, and a bugfix .zip for current users is also available.

As a note, I'd like to thank Martina » for finding the solution to a problem that was plaguing some users! If you were unable to add affiliates to any of your listings, simply run the upgrade file for 2.1.9 to 2.2 – it came with the .zip file, but you are more than free to re-download the .zip for it.

(This should also tell you that a) I'm spastic, and without Martina, it probably would've gone forever unsolved and b) I really need to use .txt files. Yay me! :P)

I've already updated the .zip of Listing Admin to fix the bug and you can also download the options page .zip (to avoid downloading (and shuffling through)the endless amounts of files in the .zip) at my fanlisting collective » to make it easier.

I strongly recommend you download the bugfix. *nod*

ETA: The register URL error has been fixed – muchas gracias to Petyr for the heads up! :D

Next: I'm calling for beta testers to test Listing Admin 2.3, so I can drag the script out of beta mode. I'm looking for around ten people, but the more I can get, the better! The beta testing will be from July 7^th to July 28^th, and an admin panel will be provided (think Oh!No) for bug reports and feature suggestions.

You can go « to this sign-up form to sign up for being a beta tester; make sure you read the rules thoroughly (at least before committing to it) – everything will be explained there. :D You can also use the form to sign-up to provide feature suggestions, just make sure to explain in the comments field.

Since I am tired, I'll give you a quick rundown:

1. New design for Listing Admin! It looks like an ate-too-much vintage-turning-modern dinosaur, you've been farewarned.
2. I meant "crosslisting affiliates" as in "crosslisting affiliates from enthusiast", so... I kind of just threw both in there. (The crosslisting affiliates together was actually in the original draft of Listing Admin, have no idea why I took it out!)
3. Bugfixes taken care of, including converting favourite fields, affiliates and CodeSort. Overwrite all the files (including the convert files), it's that simple.
4. "Newest Members" now added to listing statistics, simply add {newest}.
5. "Password hint" now added for those who forgot their password – please use this wisely. Don't forget your password every time your cookie expires, this is a worst case scenario type thing, nothing concrete.
6. Favourite fields! And they update each member for the listing, so that the favourite fields aren't left in the database. :D Spiffy!

...and yeah, that's about it. I wanted to pack in more features, but I didn't have the time, so I'll save that 2.2.1! Documentation will also be updated tomorrow, and overwrite every file besides rats.inc.php.

Most of these errors were reported by the lovely Jessica » and Martina » (my fellow developers! Soooo-ooo-oo crazy cool!), and the mountains of e-mails I have (rather guiltily) not answered. I'm a bit on the sleepy side, so if I missed anything, feel free to smack me around. :D

Affiliates

1. FEATURE SUGGESTION: Crosslisting affiliates! Thoughts, opinions, complaints?
2. Deleting an affiliate is impossible by way of an cleanUpt() error.

Joined

1. Editing a joined fanlisting not working by way of the error above.

Members

1. Adding favourite fields not working from the cleanUpt() error.

Conversion Files

1. Whole collective is still not converting from CodeSort.
2. Single quotations (') can't be inserted when converting affiliates.
3. Favourite fields are disaligned when converting members from Enthusiast.

You need only to comment on this blog with a bugfix that isn't listed – and feature suggestions are more than welcome!

I understand Listing Admin is very...erm, shall we say beta? I released it knowing there would be issues galore, but I want everyone to keep in mind that I am the only one testing it – nobody else, this is a one man (woman?) operation. I know it's frustrating, but bear in mind that you're talking to me, the script creator. I have feelings, too, and having them stomped on doesn't solve your issues. I don't mind the occasional shout (yes, Christina », I am talking about you), or even the 10+ comments telling me I'm wrong (you know who you are ») – but being downright nasty is uncalled for. I just want everyone to remember that things might be misconstrued, being over the Internet, and to keep others feelings in mind! *hugs all around*

I'd also like to pimp the « Listing Admin documentation; this has everything you need for installing and customising, and should (...very tentative word) answer your questions.

No that that's out of the way: a (partially) large bugfix has been released, but the version has not changed. Many, many thanks to Courtney », Holly » and Haley » for the bug reports (and to Haley for some suggestions!), and of course Mayumi » for beta testing the Listings page for me! ♥

Of course, you can download "Listing Admin 2.1.9" on the downloads page, linked below and in the sidebar! :D For those upgrading, you only need to overwrite all files other than rats.inc.php.

Just thought I'd clear those two things up – I don't think I mentioned the latter, so that was probably my fault, and I haven't been responding as diligently as I have been before, so I apologise if I seem to be ignoring you – I'm not!

Soooo-ooo-oo: Listing Admin 2.1.9 » has been released. I apologise sincerely for the almost two weeks of tardiness. Some of the features ending up being more hectic than I originally thought they'd be, and my internet died unexpectedly last week, but nonetheless, it's here!

The main feature, of course, is crosslisting to another database. It can currently connect to a different database, and if chosen, select members from an Enthusiast or phpFanBase table. Nifty! Tons and tons of bugfixes have also been implemented in this version, and I sincerely thank Donna », Melissa », Saya » and Willow » for the bugfix reports and suggestions, as well as that sassy lover of mine » for bugging me to finally, you know, crosslist. It's very beta, so I have plans to release a another version soon.

Special note: For the users who have installed Listing Admin prior to 2.1.9, please be aware you must not login before you upgrade, as it won't wok. You can view full details of the bugfixes/implementations « at the documentation!

ETA: I took out a function in Listing Admin at about midnight last night (or today?) that's giving those with hypens in their domain names an error. Many, many, many thanks to Stacey » for letting me know (and Mayumi » for telling me on MSN, as I'm horrible, and did not re-check the boards last night.)

As a finishing note, Collective Admin has also been updated to include bok.inc.php (the file that calls the path to your admin files); muchas gracias to Saya » for pointing this out (and therefore proving what an idiot I am!).

I am also: receiving your bug reports and thank you – because I'd probably be a pile of goo without you lovelies! ♥ – have received no bug reports on Icon Admin, and releasing Listing Admin 2.1.9 tomorrow, which is the biggest release yet – stay tuned, it'll be fabulousity!

I've cut the entry, as this is quite a ramble; I'd recommend reading it only for the benefit of reading "ICON ADMIN RELEASED HAR HAR", and it's fellow disclaimer.

So...ta-da! It's released! Let's pretend this is the first or something! Of course, you have to register to download it, but it's available. A few bugs have been fixed as well, so the .zip has been updated. The regular release will be released on the 18^th. The readme files are no longer included in the .zip file, and have been relocated » at the proper documentation.

Also: added a reset password form to the login page here at Pumpin'!, so if you've forgotten it, there you go, a form!

(...Oh, yeah. Proper blog post coming soon.)

1. Fixes a lot of issues, such as the pagination error in show-updates.php, comments display and show-reset.php. Some low-key ones are the affiliates page and show-join.php.
2. Listings can now be edited easier and more efficiently! Templates are also explained, so no more "guess the variable!" games.
3. Affiliates can now be searched by e-mail, subject or URL – this was a definite feature, as searching affiliates can be a bit of a pain.
4. Favourite field added to the members, with the shiny new members template (implemented in 2.1.4).
5. And so on! The changelog.txt file is perfect.

Head over to the » downloads page to grab up a whole .zip, or an upgrade .zip. I'd also like to announce that starting next Friday, the 30^th, updates will be posted every two weeks. (And some » modifications have been added, yay!)

I am available through e-mail, but I'm not taking any chances, so therefore I recommend commenting instead of e-mailing me.

Oh, and yes! I've been working tirelessly to set up a demo of Listing Admin, and » here it is! The listing portion isn't up, but the collective and admin panel is there; feel more than free to play around to your liking! You can also visit the » demo index (you'll see KIM Admin nestled in there tight).

I've also been working on the documentation », and » Listing Admin's is almost completed. Go look, it's information packed. (KIM Admin is coming soon, I promise!)

Hit the downloads », yo, and have fun!

ETA: If the version notification is still appearing, even after replacing the rats.inc.php file, and you're using MagpieRSS, please allow the feed to cache; I deleted the cached file on my server from an earlier time, and when I refreshed, it re-cached, and the notification went away.

Before I continue and shout "GO!": it's not a complete upgrade, as I have ran out of time. Have no fear! The rest of the materials (comments page, comments notification, display codes and documentation) will be up tomorrow, and this entry will be edited when I have done so. Also, no upgrade .zip has been uploaded, because this version is such a big upgrade. As rats.inc.php is edited, simply download the entire .zip file.

So, »GO!, because you can still post updates, convert them from FanUpdate and display them!

ETA: The .zip file of 2.1.4 has been re-uploaded due to a install error.

ETA 2: The FULL .zip file of 2.1.4 has been added, and as well as the documentation for Listing Admin ». Yaay!

ETA 3: Updated the .zip file to fix the simplexml_load_file() error – be sure to upload the .inc files (all start with fetch_) and the /extlib/ folder in the /admin/ folder. RE-UPLOAD the rats.inc.php and index.php files – this is important!

Current Features

Demos, etc.

1. Demos and documentations (think a big readme.txt file) will be put up, as well; by the beginning of next week all scripts will have these.

Misc

1. Conversion files: Enthusiast and FanUpdate (still debating BellaBuffs and others).
2. Member templates, yay!
3. Anti-SPAM plugin features (also featured for comments).

Updates

1. Cross-post into Dreamwidth, InsaneJournal and LiveJournal (includes username, password, link back settings for options and on the updates page includes community, tags and userpic keyword).
2. Pretty URLs for updates! Yaay! (Nooo! Gonna' be a bitch, I know it.)
3. Shit ton of options, including Gravatar options, comment options and SPAM measures for options.

And yeah! If you have any suggestions, as I said on Twitter », I am all ears! Also, downloads link has been added the footer, whether you're logged in or not, for easy access.

Speaking up next week's upgrade! The following are upcoming features, which is the biggest upgrade yet:

1. Updates
   Updates that are very much like FanUpdate, except no timezone options, the ability to post in Whole Collective and tentative pretty URLs (much like WordPress); so, FanUpdate meets my own CMS. Another thing is, of course, comments and cross-posting to Dreamwidth, InsaneJournal and LiveJournal.
2. Members Templates
   Already done, simply needs to be included with show-members.php.
3. Conversion Files
   Including affiliates from Enthusiast, BellaBuffs affiliates, codes and members and anything else I can write up.
4. Anti-SPAM Addon
   I've been writing this forever, so hopefully it can be included as well. Features for this include a math problem, a points system for join forms (and comments for Updates), forced JavaScript and a couple of random and weird checks.

Of course, if you have anything to suggest or report, » let me know! :D

1. Subcategories, and the full use for them. You can add subcategories and apply them to Listings, Joined and your Wishlist. These will (by default) NOT be displayed in the show_joined.php and show_owned.php files (but can be). Subcategories will only be displayed under their parent if there is listings/joined listed under them. Beside each parent category, the count for listings/joined in both the parent category and subcategories will be listed (so no more 0's!).
2. Little bugfix with kim.php.

That's it! If you have any feature suggestions/bug reports, be sure to comment here or at » Listing Admin's page.

Be sure before you download the .zip file for the 2.1.2 bugfix that you download the 2.1.1 bugfix if you have not done so – this is important, because not all files are in the latest bugfix .zip. Of course, you can always download the full .zip file and ignore the rats.inc.php file. » Now hit the Downloads page!

ETA: A bugfix of KIM Admin 1.1 has been released for users using PHP 4. I know I said I wouldn't support this, but it's a simple fix, and some users can't help this. You can download this on the » downloads page.

1. Display of subcategories. You can add them and and they are displayed in categories.php, but as for show_joined.php and show_owned.php and other necessary files, they will be rather...er, shall we say messed up? Of course, this will be one of the biggest features in the next bugfix release (Friday, the 11^th).
2. FanUpdate conversion, because I am still deciding. It would be rather big and bulky, trying to implement FanUpdate, but it's not completely out of the question, and I have some ideas.

...that is it, I am sure. I want to thank Christina, Donna and Yuuhi for reporting the bugs/features you did, because it meant a lot to me (and a lot of what was suggested would have been lost on me!). Now, head over to the » Downloads to grab the .zip file! (Again, you must register and have a member status in order to download the script.)

On a unrelated note, watch out for some addons/mods coming your way soon! I have some things in store that a few visitors may like! :D

To make a feature suggestion or report a bug: comment on this post, e-mail me at theirrenegadexxx@gmail.com, comment on » Listing Admin, DM or reply to me on Twitter or use the contact form. Any and all options and accepted, of course.

ETA: Entry closed for the night! Again, you can still comment on » Listing Admin's page if there's any last-minute bugs you'd like to report. :D

ETA (Part 2): Slowing going through the list, expect a bugfix release in the next 2/3+ hours (hopefully sooner)!

2. Bugfix: display_codes.php fix of PHP snippets
3. Bugfix: Miscellany: Donated codes empty URL
4. Bugfix: wishlist.php fix
5. Feature: "Add Member" in kim.php for KIM members

2. Bugfix: make title and image optional for listings.php
3. Feature: add recent listings/joined on index.php in the admin control panel
4. Feature: convert codes from CodeSort to Listing Admin, convert joined fanlistings from Enthusiast to Listing Admin
5. Feature: display affiliates and members count, and image for listings.php
6. Possible Feature: implement FanUpdate, and make a convert file for it (Will be implemented at a later date.)

From Yuuhi

1. Bugfix: error in show_owned.php for "All Categories" link

Also, I'd like to make a small note to anybody who signs up: if I do not immediately, upon you registering, make you a member it's because a) I'm not aware of it yet or b) I don't recognise you. However, do not be afraid to ask for a status upgrade – 9 1/2 times out of 10, I'll make you a member without question. :) You can also request a status change via » contact form, if that makes you feel more comfortable.

If it does not, of course: let me know.

Please be aware before downloading that you MUST register, and that it is in open beta mode, meaning there will be bugs. I will be sending out a bugfix every Friday, starting this Friday. Be there, or be square, yo.

A FAQ has been set up » over here – you can access the link by the sitemap on the About page.

Speaking of pages: as a final word, I realised users could not update their password correctly over at Lyone », and it appears that was an error over here as well. It is now fixed, and apologies for not seeing this sooner! If you're still having problems, simply comment and I'll check it out.

ETA: the » Projects page is now up and running!

Second, Emma » was ever so gracious as to point out an error in the register form, which has been fixed. I apologise to anybody who has tried to register in the past week!

Side Note: The secret script has been revealed: Listing Admin 2.0, my own fanlisting script. So, not so secret, but it will be released on September 1^st, 2009 to users with the member status only; the script will be released on December 1^st, 2009 to users with the reader status. To view your status, be sure to visit the » user list and find out. (Quick note: I choose your status; if I know you, you will most likely be promoted to the member status.)

So what are they? First off, you might notice there's a user system – or maybe not. Whether you have or not, I recommend (though it's not at all necessary) you register here at Pumpin'! in order to get those nice treats that were promised. Most of them are script related, of course, but everybody loves new shiny things, right? The second thing is a newly revamped » Scripts section, that holds all of my own scripts, including addons/mods I've written. Check it out, it's nice. :D

Finally: KIM Admin 1.1 has been released, and any existing subscribers have been e-mailed. I highly recommend upgrading to the latest version, as there's several new features added, including a members templates (for show-members.php), and the ability to approve, update and delete multiple members. (As for the secret script, it's coming, I promise!)

Or, in the other words, I was otherwise preoccupied. So, not only has the » Projects section been revamped (it's 2.0 release was done in November 2008), but a new backend for Pumpin'! altogether. Yes, Pumpin'! is run by my shiny new "CMS" script (never mind it being completely hacked into)! :D With a RSS feed and public » KIM script released, well, Pumpin'!, you look mighty fine there.
