UPGRADING FROM PREVIOUS RELEASES ----------------------------- This archive includes a script that can migrate an Enano 1.0.x installation to -Enano 1.1. Before running the migration script, you should always be sure to -upgrade to the latest version of Enano 1.0.x (1.0.4 "Ellyyllon" at the time of -this writing). Migration is NOT REVERSIBLE. This is alpha-quality code. DO NOT +Enano 1.2. Before running the migration script, you should always be sure to +upgrade to the latest version of Enano 1.0.x (1.0.7 "FIXME" at the time of +this writing). Migration is NOT REVERSIBLE. This is beta-quality code. DO NOT UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES UPGRADE A PRODUCTION SITE. -As of Enano 1.1.2, upgrades from previous 1.1.x versions are supported. The API -is considered fairly stable as of 1.1.4, but the interface is still a work in -progress except for the installer UI core, which is quite close to final. +Upgrades from any 1.1.x version are fully supported and generally more stable +than upgrades from 1.0 because of all the API changes. If you experience +trouble upgrading from a 1.0 version to 1.2, try upgrading first to version +1.1.6 or so. TRANSLATING ENANO ----------------------------- -This is the only the fifth formal release of Enano that is localized. Right -now since this is an alpha, you probably don't want to do any translation -because you'll be doing a TON more strings at every release. HOWEVER, we're -looking for people to sign up and volunteer for translation efforts later on. -If you have a native or very good knowledge of a language, drop us an e-mail -and we'll get you onto the translator list and eventually onto a mailing list -specifically for l10n. +There have been quite a few changes to strings in the 1.2 series. Since this +is a beta, you probably don't want to do a lot of translation because you'll +be doing a TON more strings at every release. HOWEVER, we're looking for +people to sign up and volunteer for translation efforts later on. If you have +a native or very good knowledge of a language, drop us an e-mail and we'll get +you onto the translator list and eventually onto a mailing list specifically +for l10n if that effort becomes big enough. -EXPANDING YOUR SITE'S CAPABILITIES +PLUG-INS ----------------------------- -There is a gallery of plugins for Enano at -. It's not very full right now because -not every plugin has a page on the website yet, and some plugins still have -yet to be ported to work with some of the newer API changes. Being an alpha -release you'll probably need to look in the Mercurial repositories at - for the latest versions of plugins that are designed -to work under both 1.0.x and 1.1.x. +Most Enano features you see are actually the work of plugins. You can see a +gallery of plugins at . Most of the +plugins there work under Enano 1.2, but some don't. Plugins with known +compatibility problems are marked; if you don't see any notes to the +contrary, it's probably compatible with Enano 1.2. -GIVING YOUR SITE A NEW LOOK +THEMES ----------------------------- You can find more themes for Enano at . -Again, we're still working on packaging up themes and creating pages for them, -so try to be patient. We have quite a few themes in the works. You can create -your own themes too; for more information, see Chapter V of the Enano -Administrator's handbook, at . Unless -specifically marked, themes on the Enano website are compatible with 1.0.x. -While you can use 1.0.x themes under 1.1.x, some features (namely viewing IPs -on comments and the default "Inherit" option in the ACL editor) will be missing -unless you copy over comment.tpl and acledit.tpl respectively from Oxygen or -one of the other themes included with this 1.1.x package. +We're not doing too great with developing themes, and what we have developed +often doesn't make it up to the website. :) So your choices on the website +look a little bit more limited than they really are. + +Unlike plugins, themes are generally very easy to port from 1.0 to 1.2. Copy +over acledit.tpl, comment.tpl, and toolbar.tpl from a 1.2 theme and remove +the
