Well, I suddenly realised yesterday that I hadn't posted for a "few weeks". Turns out a few weeks is actually closer to two months but there we go.
In two months ALOT has happened, first point of which is a forum which me and Ricky purchased. We are now the proud owners of one of the largest web design communities on the net! www.WebDesignForums.net.
We have already put a new design online, re-ordered the forums and purchased a new logo and mascot, which will probably be going live when Ricky has got back from sunning himself in Florida with his family! (Jealous!)
So yeah check it out and let me know what you think, we've got some more plans for it still but we need to build on these before anything will happen.

The other point I wanted to post about was the beta releases of a new Wolf CMS plugin which will get an official release sometime this weekend. I've been busy working away on mbForms, a Form Builder. After seeing people getting excited when other developers promised one coming soon but never appearing, I thought it was time this void was filled!
You can download it from the Wolf CMS thread here. I've linked to that as there is also a bug in the default Email helper which you'll need to fix before mbForms will work.

I'll try not to leave two months before the next update this time. Not promising anything though....

Yo,

Just a few quick updates to mbBlog, mbMenu and mbContact.
mbMenu I've fixed an issue relating to the 'Menu Item Parent' drop down.

With mbBlog I've fixed a small issue with the dispatcher routes, will look into review how these work soon and may change them round a bit so keep posted on that. Also edited the setLayout() function to reference 'Wolf' instead of 'wolf'. Some servers have an issue with case-sensitivity.

With mbContact I fixed the same issue with regards to the setLayout() function.

With regards to mbBlog and mbContact, if you're using them you may find that the plugin doesn't pull the correct layout. If you are having this issue, load up the Controller for that plugin and in the construct function look for the follow line of code.

Change 'wolf' to whatever your layout name is.

In the near future I'm going to look at automating this but currently as these both work from dispatcher routes and don't have a set 'page' there is no set layout for them to pull from the database.
Anyway keep an eye out for this updates, I may end up replacing mbContact soon anyway for a 'form builder' plugin which I've been contemplating for a while! I'll keep you all informed on this as I decide what I'm going to do exactly with this.
