 I would definitely consider taking up Guardian on this great offer.  He's got a lot of great scripts on sale and is cooking up even more (new scripts) in the near future!  montego

Should have done this a long time ago: PHP-Nuke is a dead project, has been for a very long time, and its time to stop trying to write and support scripts for it.  Its original author created its own demise by his own unwillingness to work with the community especially in the realm of security patches!  Others had to always pick up the slack, whether through the great work of NukeResources and its original owner Chatserv for security patches, or through NukeScripts and Raven PHP Scripts through its wonderful NukeSentinel(tm) product.  All other PHP-Nuke "sins" of the past will just be left in the past...

No more is Montego Scripts going to write scripts, hacks, etc. which support the old PHP-Nuke CMS.  Go forward, ALL development and on-going support will only be for the RavenNuke(tm) CMS, a far superior product in all aspects.  The very first of TegoNuke(tm) line of products to be released under the banner of RN-Only! will be ShortLinks version 1.3.0, which is due out shortly, followed by TegoNuke(tm)/NSN Downloads 1.1.0!

In addition, as already stated many times, only PHP 5.2 and above will be supported as well.  PHP4 is also dead and its time to stick the fork in it for good!  No looking back...

Best Regards to the Community as always,

Yes, it is true.  I, montego, officially retired from the RavenNuke(tm) Team on April 30 of 2010.  I have had a great run on this Team and with the Project.  I still believe wholeheartedly in the project and will continue to support the community of RN'ers in the forums as well as in getting back to my "roots" of caring and feeding of certain *nuke modules, blocks, hacks, etc. via  Montego Scripts.  I have new versions of NSN Group Downloads, HTML Newsletter and other scripts in the works to bring to the community.

It has been a wonderful time with the project and various team members.  I have made some really great on-line friends while on the team and have even met Raven and kguske personally in 2009!  I wish that I could have met more of the Team along the way!  I have learned a lot since joining the on-line world back in 2005, when I first met with PHP-Nuke and then Raven PHP Scripts.  Never been the same since!  LOL. 

I plan on using what little time I have for this hobby to support my growing list of non-profit (and non-paying) clients with a little left over for the above mentioned caring and feeding.  While no longer a RN Team member and admin on RPS, I will forever have RN, RPS, and the team running through my veins...

Best Regards and NOT Goodbye,
montego

I have been wanting to do this for quite some time and finally decided to open it up.  My original plan was to modify the Project Tracking module to pull its data from my external Mantis issue tracker tool.  But, I have finally come to my senses and reality has set in that I just don't the time to write such a thing.  I also so not have time to *nukify Mantis to work as a module.

I will be adding specific links to specific projects within my Project Forge pages, but for now, you may simply use the link called Issue Tracker under my Projects section of my site navigation on the left.  You may have to click on the "Login Anonymously" link to get in.  From there, you can choose the view you wish to see (I default it to the Project News page), from an issues list, the Road Map, Change Log, etc.  Also, in the upper right-hand corner of the page you can pick the project you are interested in seeing.

Access will remain read-only.  Therefore, ALL bug reports and enhancement request are still to be made within the respective forums.  I have, however, opened up a new Forum to capture any specific issues or requests regarding anything about the bug tracking tool or the data within. 

I hope the community will find this useful,

montego

I just cannot believe how long it has been since I wrote my last news article on the picking up of NSN Group Downloads development again.  February of 2009?  Oh my.  Well, I have picked it up again as I am anxious to get a decent downloads module back in shape and targetted for RavenNuke(tm).  (Not to mention really wanting to close out this branch in my subversion repository!  LOL.)  Hopefully this time around things go better.

The Nuke Optimized Staff is ready to release the Modified Project. It is a PHPBB3 Base package with over 30 modifications that will make any webmaster's job easier when installing and running a web based forum. You can find the modifications list by following this link. You can also find the preview images for the project by following this link Some extras include over 30 bbcodes pre-installed. See the list by visiting the following link.  I have also included 8 categories of avatars that equal to about 270 avatars of 120 X 120 So please visit the project website and join to try the project that will be released on Friday. Visit www.nukeoptimized.com.

I know that I have said this before, but its time to pick up NSN Group Downloads again.  There are some issues with integration into the latest RavenNuke(tm) releases, some bugs, some enhancements folks have been asking for, and there just aren't any other active projects out there it seems for this type of thing (if I am wrong, do please submit links to active projects and do so in my forums). Here are a few things that I am planning to work on:

• Complete XHTML compliance
• Improved performance
• Complete review again of code security
• Leach protection
• Support for RavenNuke(tm), including its captcha
• Support for nukeWYSIWYG editor
• And more...

I am going to keep the initial re-lease rather small in scope, but do please submit enhancement ideas within the forums here or over at RavenPHPScripts.

The RavenNuke™ Team is pleased to announce the availability of RavenNuke™ 2.3.0. RavenNuke™ 2.3.0 raises the standard for Nuke-based Content Management Systems with over 100 new, improved, upgraded modules, themes and other add-ons and fixes that take RavenNuke™ to the next level of functionality, performance, ease-of-use, stability, security, and, of course, first-class support. RavenNuke™ uses the GPL license, has been tested on many hosting environments and has commonly-installed dependencies. The 2.3.0 release continues the RavenNuke™ tradition of combining functional enhancements, performance and security improvements and simplified ease-of-use for both users and administrators into a single package.

Major additions in RavenNuke™ 2.3.0 include:

• RavenNuke™ Your Account (RNYA) (see details below)
• Legal Documents (see details below)
• Content Plus (addon) (see details below)
• Spanish language translation
• CT_RN theme
• RavenIce theme (CSS)
• Advanced error handling
• Advanced installer with environment check

What the heck is a "SuperUser Trap"?  I had no idea what to call it, so I came up with that lame excuse for a title.  The bottom line is that I wanted to announce that I've started to blog again.  I figured that I just need to get with it and write on things that I run into throughout the week.  This particular blog article is about how one can turn an administration "applet" such as Messages into a "module" to where permissions may be given to an admin to manage Messages, but without having to give them Super User access.  Come see just how easy this is to do.

As many of you know, more and more web hosting companies are shutting down access to the PHP mail() function and instead requiring the use of authenticated SMTP from your scripts.  Core PHP-Nuke, and therefore, RavenNuke as well, has traditionally made heavy use of the mail() function; even the forums and messaging features use mail() unless you configure your Forums to use SMTP through its separate administration tool.

PHPNukeMailer from Slaytanic has been an excellent compromise, using PHPMailer under the covers for the actual mailer and then putting an administration tool on top.  I looked at NukeEvolution too and it was using Swift Mailer.  After reviewing both mailers, I am convinced that Swift Mailer is much more robust.  Therefore, since I liked the administration idea from PHPNukeMailer and the core mailer implementation of Swift Mailer, I decided to create Introducing TegoNuke(tm) Mailer, and combine the two ideas together.

I am building this solution for the upcoming RavenNuke 2.20.00 release.  Once it is complete and well tested, I will most likely package it up as a separate download for the regular PHP-Nuke folks.  Stay tuned...

Note: 

Forgot to mention that although this will originally be released in PHP4 form, it will work also on PHP5.  After the February PHP5 deadline, I will only package this up using the PHP5-only version of Swift Mailer.  My intent is to use its more advanced features in support of the next version of the HTML Newsletter.
