Major minor update - 22/10/2005

Within this few weeks there were a lots of small small updates which I have added to the core mambo files as well as it's component. Here are a summary of the whole update process :-

1) New security module
- added a new security module to enforce a stronger password convention and avoid lame users from registering. (e.g: weak passwords includes - 123456, qwerty, abcdef, password, zxcvbnm).

2) Yahoo Messenger + MyChub integration.
- Yahoo users will enjoy it's messenger integration to user profiles. Thus, users registering with their YahooID/password will be automatically be connected in their profile.

3) Profiles - Testimonial Section
- Updated a testimonial section with lots of nifty features. Including 10 most recent.

4) Tighter Integrity of the Profiles
- User with incomplete profiles will not be able to interact with other users unless they update it.

SQL overflow & Podcast upload issue resolved (12/10/2005)

There was an issue with the podcast server (as all php based server), which limits all web upload to only 2MB. Well, moks found 2 solution which both were implemented in our podcast server.
1) Using a remote CGI script for upload >2MB.
2) Using FTP Javaclient / FTP server for the upload.
Thus, the issue has been resolved.

There was also an issue with the testimonial in the profile section which is screwed by the short URL. This has also been resolved using the $my->id & $is_registered variable to block the SQL overflow.

Minimalist Re-Design (10/10/2005)

Revamped the outer pages to adopt a minimalist design so that all the clutters are cleared. Thus, freeing system resources and making loading faster. This will also ease new users to preview the main features of mychub.org (profiles / chat / msg board).

Registered users will still enjoy the full features of mychub plus all the perks (too many to mention here).

Best Regards
