Yes, this blog is still alive, though the last post is about two and a half years old. It has happened a lot since then, but it can be condensed in two points: a) I moved again, this time to Bernau am Chiemsee at the “other end” of Germany, and b) I got...
If you have tried to leave a comment on my site in the last two days, you may have noticed that they weren’t accepted. Here is why: Because the rate of incoming spam decreased dramatically after I implemented the Honeypot CAPTCHA on this site, I wondered...
Brendan Tompkins released CAPTCHA for CommunityServer 2007 : I'm happy to announce that CodeBetter.Com is carrying on the legacy of CAPTCHA for Community Server . CAPTCHA for CS2007 is the next generation of CS Guru Dave Burke's most excellent...
This site has been upgraded to CommunityServer 2007 (I guess visitors to my site do know CommunityServer, and they already read the announcements .) Of all all CS MVPs, I am again late to the party The upgrade was pretty easy. I spent about 2 hours on...
Today Nick Bradbury wrote : The statistics packages offered by most popular blogging services are either limited or non-existent, leaving many bloggers struggling to get good information on traffic to their blog. Those of us who use FeedBurner have long...
I just want to announce that I added Snap Preview to my blog. But unlike Scott and J-O , I enabled them only for external links. IMHO it is useless for internal links.
I just upgraded my site to Community Server 2.1 SP1. I wouldn't post this if I did not encounter an issue, though you may experience this error only if you use my coComment support for CS . In fact, it occurs only if you use BlogThreadQuery and set ReturnFullThread...
Yesterday I upgraded my site to Community Server 2.1 RTM . I'm astonished how many additional mods I'm already using: Community Server MVP's Alabaster CSModule Package A collection of CSModules written by CS MVPs and myself. (I contributed...
I have just upgraded to Community Server 2.1 RC 1 (2.1.60804.900). Flawless as usual
As my two readers may already have noticed, my site wasn't accessible for the last 24hrs. The SQL Server hosting my Community Server database had a hard disk failure, and it took them some time to find the backup tapes Apparently they found the backup...
I just upgraded my site with Community Server 2.1 Beta 2 , which was published yesterday. The upgrade went pretty good. I only had to re-compile my custom Akismet spam rule and Ken Robertson's Qgyen.ExtendedUrlMapping module (which source code he...
Finally I managed to update my site. I already missed the last major step from 1.1 to 2.1. However, during the last few weeks the number of spams increased daily. Because CS 2.0 introduced a spam checker, I decided to bite the bullet. Of course I took...
Yesterday Jayson Knight described how to add coComment support to CommunityServer. I'm a user of coComment too, therefore I added Jayson's hack to my blog. However, I don't like how the URL to the blog post is rendered (it's the rewritten...
I wrote two weeks ago that a cyber squatter registered my domain thomasfreudenberg.com . I've contacted her, and I want to share the exchanged mails with you: Dear Sir or Madam, I'm writing to you because you have registered the domain name thomasfreudenberg...
Cyber squatters suck! Yes, they really suck! Harsh word, I know, so let me give you some details. Maybe you have visited my site before (well, before October 21st). And maybe you remember that the domain name was thomasfreudenberg.com. Now have a look...
Finally, several month after the initial release of CommunityServer I've managed to migrate from dotText. With the help from Kevin Harder 's DotText-CS-Converter and Ken Robertson 's SiteUrls Generator I was even able to preserve the old site structure...
I've disabled comments, since comment spam gets out of hands. As you see in the header of this site, there are currently 8374 comments counted. However, forget about 8000. These are all spam! Besides, I'm preparing for a migration to CommunityServer ...
As I posted , no postbacks on my site were possible. Though I'm running the same application at home and on my site, the onsubmit tag was rendered differently. At home I get <form name="Form1" method="post" action="CommentsBroken.aspx" language="javascript...
Currently it's not possible to post comments on my blog. I'm still investigating this issue. I have a copy of all files and the database running at home, but I cannot reproduce this error. Somehow the files are rendered differently on my WebHost4Life...
Remember: if you patch your blogging engine, make sure everything works properly before publishing it! And backup everything! Ok, what I'm talking about here is this: as you may know I'm using .Text as my blog backend. Instead of using the pre-compiled...
