Bloxer rocks! I'm now running it on my server.
I added some import_request_variables("P") to support newer versions of PHP that insist on _not_ importing them by default. You can download my updated version here: http://involution.com/bloxor.zip
Cool!
Let me know if you will plan to build localised versions.
Love it.
I'm looking forward to when it'll be a program.
I really like it - simple and efficient design. Any plans to complete M6 (threaded comments)? Does the move to sourceforge.net mean that you do not plan to do more and want someone else to "take over"...? Just curious... -PC
Hey Patrick
Glad you liked it.
To be honest, I lost all motivation. I am planning other projects that may be more profitable but haven't decided yet.
I know with time and dedication this could be the greatest blog reader of all times but, no money = no fuel.
Feel free to "take over" if you wish, the source is open ;-)
Thanks for answering. I wish I could "take over", but alas, I'm just a lawyer without programming or manual skills (!) so I shall continue on my sporadic quest for the elusive news reader service/software that has a clean three pane GUI with threaded comments and enables access to our feed list from anywhere!! know if it exists? :-)
how do you have different users like on the bloxor site, I want to let others use it
Any chance that Bloxor will support attachments? This is important for reading podcast feeds.
Installed it. Followed instructions. Changed database settings in dataserver.php.
But I get an error:
'Error 110: Could not connect to data server.'
I use Firefox 1.5.0.2 (latest as of now).
PS: Do you have a similar downloadable for your email XUL?
