I could pile on more projects, but doesn't help because we have 1 person bus count on this.

Since we rely so heavily on database and needing mysql, we should be super clean about ONLY using sql IMO. I changed on config and borked scale! So, I had to fire up a stupid commandline client and enter this: update aiki_config SET config_data='a:8:{s:4:"site";s:7:"default";s:3:"url";s:24:"http://scalejournal.org/";s:13:"default_chmod";s:4:"0775";s:11:"pretty_urls";s:1:"1";s:16:"default_language";s:7:"english";s:19:"default_time_format";s:9:"d - m - Y";s:8:"site_dir";s:3:"ltr";s:19:"language_short_name";s:2:"en";}' WHERE config_id=1 AND config_type='global_settings'; That is insane because I had to hand edit and count the characters of the string. Databases are used to store data, not have a data structure inside a storage system. This is a high necessary fix. If anything, we should provide easy access to creating proper fields on the db. _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~aikiframework.admins Post to : aikiframework.admins@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~aikiframework.admins More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
