One of the new features in Geeklog 1.3.10 are the so-called autolinks which provide new tags (called autotags) to link to objects under a plugin's control. For example,

[staticpage:cvs Learn all about the Geeklog CVS]

will be displayed as this link: Learn all about the Geeklog CVS

But the full potential of this new form of links has yet to be explored. For example, autolinks could provide a solution to the often requested ability to let normal users upload images with their stories. If you have Gallery installed and allow image upload for your users there, a plugin could provide an autotag that not only links to the image in Gallery but also displays the preview in the story. Another example would be a request from a client I had who asked for attachments to stories (just like attachments in an email), which could be done by adding autotags to the File Management plugin.

The third (and, hopefully, final) Release Candidate for Geeklog 1.3.10 is now available for download. It fixes problems with the "clickable links" (and images) in plain text posts, problems with personal events, and a few other issues. Also included are updated language files for some languages.

For those updating from 1.3.10rc2, a list of the changed files can be found in docs/changed-files.

The second Release Candidate for Geeklog 1.3.10 is now available for download. It fixes are variety of (mostly minor) bugs in rc1 and also addresses the email problems some users were having (the complete list of changes since rc1 can be found in docs/history).

Please give it a try, but keep in mind that it's still not the final version yet. To upgrade from 1.3.10rc1, please see the enclosed list of changed files in docs/changed-files. There were no database changes, so you only have to replace the files that have changed.

We'll give this Release Candidate a bit more time now so as to find the remaining problems and also give the translators a chance to catch up.
