I’ve recently installed a new plugin for Dev-Scene Blogs..

This plugin generates three RSS 2.0 feeds comprising of posts, comments, and pages across all blogs on Dev-Scene Blogs..

I’ve updated to the newest release of Wordpress MU.

This release has all the security fixes from WP 2.2.2.

I’m asking for $166US by the 31rd of August 2007 to help cover hosting services.

This is a once off request and I don’t plan on asking for donations for Dev-Scene ever again.

FastCGI for PHP makes all your PHP applications run through mod_fastcgi instead of mod_phpsusexec. This eliminates the overhead of loading the PHP interpretor on every hit. Since it is always in memory ready for the next hit, the responses will be generated faster.

This service has been recently installed and enabled for the public by my webhost and as of last night.. fastCGI is GO!

I have really noticed an huge improvement in the speed - The Dev-Scene front page is being rendered twice as fast on average in my benchmarks.

and alot of other extentions/mods and hacks I’ve installed onto these PHP applications

I’ve updated to the newest release of Wordpress MU.

This release has all the security fixes from WP 2.2.1.

I’ve upgraded the wordpress MU release to 1.2.2 - The official version number has not changed (you’ll notice the version still shows 1.2.1)

With this update, I’ve installed a CAPTCHA for blog signups.. this should stop the increasing amount of spambots that continued to spam our servers.

Recently one of these bots decided to post a series of blogs with porn and other adult related links… This was caught by my webhost and trigged them to automatically suspend Dev-Scene…

I hope this should improve the service and security of the D-S wordpress blogs.. This also has the added bonus of keeping my administration down.

Bad Behavior has been installed - Activate it if you want.

I’ve recently upgraded our blogging engine from 1.1.1 to 1.2.1

Due to the “experience” I gained from the last major upgrade, it was performed without issue.

Everything should be fine and i’ve tested everything before this went live..but like normal if you have any problems with them.. message me!  

I have uploaded 66 new themes for your viewing pleasure and hopefully they should all work fine with the current setu.

MrShlee needs your help

Dev-Scene covers alot of news from the DS (and hopefully Wii) homebrew community. It’s a large, busy and exciting place with hundreds of fantastic releases. With more continuing to be released week after week, by our communities hard-working programmers, I’m running out of time to keep Dev-Scene News upto date..

Short and Simple.. Due to working a full time job and living the lifestyle I do. Dev-Scene sometime falls behind or I’ll miss some news all together.

So, I need some help with the News side of things… If you can spare some time working on the Dev-Scene Newsfeed.. I would love to teach you how to use my system and improve the speed of news from D-S.

Basic Knowledge of Mediawiki is a bonus. *Bonus Reading*
