  • Server Problems and More

    Published Wednesday 21st of September 2011

    You may have noticed the site's been down a few days (weeks even perhaps) and because I've been a bit lazy it's taken me 'til today to fix it.

    Me and a couple of mates have had our own VPS for a while now but a while back it suddenly went down and because there's really nothing crucial on it no one's been in the mood to sort it out.

    Today I set up my own brand new server and will start using that for future projects. I've also spent the evening backing up data from the old server.

    When doing the DB-dumps I noticed that one of my sites (one I've completely stopped working on ages ago) had gone from a 300kb dump to a 30mb dump in a matter of weeks. Which is most likely the root of our problems.

    I was using a modified version of Jonathan Snook's spam checker and apparently the damn bots have now found a way around that too. Luckily it has yet to affect any of my other sites using the same spam tool.

    Anyway, I got into the cleaning up spirit and decided to drop quite a few of my sites. In fact I deleted all my personal projects except for this site and will be moving a couple of other projects away from the server (and aFramework) soon as well.

    The reason I've taken down a-framework.org (along with the demo and bugtracker) is that I've started work on the new version of the framework; SleekPHP.

    My plan for the future is:

    • Move all sites off the old server
    • Archive aFramework and all of its sites
    • Convert andreaslagerkvist.com to SleekPHP
    • Remove old server, have only andreaslagerkvist.com and sleekphp.com on new server (both running SleekPHP)

    The biggest problem is converting this site to SleekPHP. SleekPHP's engine is pretty much finished but I haven't built any of the many sites that come with aFramework yet (like aCMS and aBlog etc). In fact, I haven't even set up the DB-stuff in SleekPHP yet.

    I'm not sure yet whether I should try to create at least something basic to put on this domain before I remove the old server or if I might just let andreaslagerkvist.com rest for a while and then reboot in a few months with the new framework (and most likely a new design as well). I guess I'll lose all my Google ranking in that time but wtf all that leads to is bug reports on jQuery plugins anyway :P

  • Sleek 1.0 and a New Design

    Published Friday 11th of March 2011

    I've started sketching out ideas for a new version of Sleek. Sleek 0.1 really didn't get very far although the foundation is pretty solid.

    Version 1.0 will follow the same structure as aFramework has since the first version.

  • Sleek/aFramework and Drupal

    Published Monday 26th of April 2010

    I've never really checked out Drupal properly before (or any other framework for that matter) but tonight (16/4) I spent a few hours reading the docs.

    It's almost scary how many things are similar, and in some cases completely identical, to aFramework/Sleek.

  • aFramework 4.0 a.k.a. SleekPHP

    Published Wednesday 21st of April 2010

    As usual when I've finished building 5 or 6 sites and ~80 modules for one version of aFramework I want to start the next, non-backwards-compatible, version of it :P

    SleekPHP

    This year is no different and I've begun development on aFramework 4.0 or Sleek 0.1.

  • How to Build an aFramework Module

    Published Friday 16th of April 2010

    As a follow up to "How aFramework Works" I thought I'd explain how to build your own modules for aFramework.

    It's actually very simple. Of course you'll need to know the languages you'll be writing but I assume you do. The simplest modules consist of nothing but HTML.

  • How aFramework Works

    Published Saturday 10th of April 2010

    aFramework is my home made PHP web dev framework that I run almost all my projects on.

    Today I thought I'd exaplain how aFramework goes from a requested URL to a rendered page.

  • New aFramework Site; aBugTracker, along with bugtracker.a-framework.org

    Published Monday 29th of March 2010

    My old todo.txt was seriously starting to get out of hand so I decided it was time I structure all my tasks for all my projects in a little more organized manner.

    I've also been wanting to show the public what's in store for aFramework (and its sister sites) for some time now and with the new bugtracker.a-framework.org I've done just that.

    I don't really work in sprints but I thought it was fun to build the sprint backlog thingy anyway so I did.

    It's also pretty nice to quickly get an overlook of the tasks I should be focusing on atm.

    I'm sure most people have no use for a bug tracker but I was so fed up with that old txt-file I just had to do something about it :P

  • aFramework 3.2

    Published Monday 15th of March 2010

    Last week I put the latest version of aFramework up for download on the official site.

    So What's New?

    Well as usual there's been plenty of bug fixes, optimizations, tweaks and enhancements but to mention some of the bigger stuff...

  • New OurFuture.eu - Running on aFramework

    Published Monday 22nd of February 2010

    I've mentioned before that I've been semi-busy (I still find time to snorkel :) with freelance.

    A few days ago we went live with the new site (OurFuture.eu) and I'm pleased with how it all worked out.

  • Sidkritik.se - Få konstruktiv kritik på din hemsida

    Published Monday 15th of February 2010

    Många forum har en avdelning för kritik på hemsidor och de är ofta rätt aktiva. Jag har däremot aldrig sett en sida helt dedikerad till just hemsiderecensioner så jag bestämde mig för att bygga en.

  • aFramework Release

    Published Monday 28th of December 2009

    I've put it up for too long now but I've finally made a (beta) release of aFramework to the public.

    I've had some freelance the last couple of months (a new version of "Our Life as Elderly") which has meant that I've had to fix certain things with aFramework like brushing up all the admins and fixing a couple of bugs.

    The main thing though is that aFramework now natively supports more than one language on the same site. Each language gets its own URL like: mysite.com (default language), mysite.com/sv/ (swedish), mysite.com/es/ (spanish) etc.

    I've also made tons of other fixes, tweaks and optimizations. If you check the svn commits you'll see plenty of them the last few months.

    Anyway, as it all started to shape up quite nicely I figured it was time to release it to the public so I put together a super-simple one-page-style and a zip with the latest code and put it all on a-framework.org (everything else was taken :/).

    There's a demo too where you can check out most of the features as well as try out the admin.

  • Bug Fixin'

    Published Wednesday 24th of June 2009

    My evening was kind of free today and I felt like coding so I took the time to sort out some annoying bugs I've been having with aFramework v3, and hence AndreasLagerkvist.com as well.

    Here's a list of the updates:

    • I've solved the case of the missing RSS-feed.
    • I had a bug where line-breaks weren't allowed in comments - pretty bad, but fixed now.
    • Removed previous-link from first page recent-comments.
    • Now sorting the plugins by name.
    • Now the date of a comment links to the comment, the author's name links to his/hers website.
    • Fixed broken pagination for search-results.

    + some more, even less interesting fixes.

    Stay tuned for real articles :)
