All releases of Aardvark Topsites PHP


Release Notes: This is a very minor release. The only changes are some small bugfixes and some new translations.


Release Notes: A tool to backup database was added in the admin interface. A more secure captcha, with a link for users to get a new captcha if the user can't read the first one. The gateway page for the Fusion skin was redesigned. Sites may be banned by URL, IP address, username, or email address. An optional security question is asked on join to block spammers. By default, new members must be approved by the admin before they are listed, and changes to the title or URL of a site must be approved by the admin. A summary of overall statistics is displayed on the main page.


Release Notes: This release included a critical security fix for servers with magic_quotes_gpc disabled (most servers are not affected). Automatic deletion of inactive members is now working again. In button.php, rank calculating now ignores inactive sites. Character encodings in the installer/upgrader now work. Month names on the stats page are now translated into the default language instead of always being English. Ad breaks no longer break the page layout if they are directly below the final rank. Some minor HTML problems and a search query display glitch were fixed.


Release Notes: Version 5.1.0 used Unicode for all the translations. This caused lots of problems for people, so the translations were converted back to their old character encodings.


Release Notes: When an edit form or join form contains errors, the user is now presented with inline error messages. An RSS feed of the top 10 sites (overall and by category) is now provided by feed.php. Admin now includes topical links to the manual for confusing options on the settings page. Google-friendly links can be disabled. An option to email the admin when a new review is posted was added. Custom pages make it easy to add static content to integrate with your topsites (FAQ, rules, etc.). A profanity filter was included. Overall stats are now displayed on the main page.


Release Notes: A minor security bug was confidentially reported and fixed. This bug is more benign than the one found in 4.2.2, and is completely unrelated. It is recommended that you upgrade as soon as possible.


Release Notes: This release works with Frontpage and MySQL 5. Categories containing & are supported. Tags for average stats are functional. The site name appears in the stats page. A layout bug for categories with few members has been fixed.


Release Notes: Sanity-checks SQL modules in the installer. Uses English by default in the installer. No HTML is allowed in member info.


Release Notes: Google-friendly links in and out. Detailed stats: 10 days, weeks, and months, plus overall and highest stats. Usernames instead of ID numbers. A user control panel. Rank by either an average or just this day/week/month. New ranking period: overall. A simplified user interface. Reviews are approved in the admin interface before they are posted. You can manage reviews in the admin interface, like managing members. There are checkboxes to approve or delete multiple members or reviews easily in the admin interface.


Release Notes: In this release, the join page includes a captcha (word verification) by default. This is to prevent spamming of topsites lists. It can be disabled in the admin.
