Changes

• Kipper 2.4: Sentinel edition

• Introducing Kipper Homepage Sentinel

  Sentinel lets you create a traditional webcomic homepage with a few hidden comment tags. Sentinel searches your image folder for the most current update, creates a clickable calendar for the current month, and includes a dropdown. Dynamic Updating hides future posts

• More navigation code fixes. You may need to adjust your CSS styles by changing the following:

  • #first a ==> #first
  • #prev a ==> #prev
  • #next a ==> #next
  • #last a ==> #last

  In any case, check to make sure your buttons are still formatting correctly.

• The buttons for Dynamic Updating have been tightened

  Previously, the next and last buttons on the last page both pointed to -- itself. Now, #next and #last become (properly) #xnext and #xlast, without any confusing linkage. Also, #next becomes #xnext on the next to the last page, leaving only the last link (as the next link is the last link; note similar behavior on the second page of the archive, where the previous button recedes in deference to the first button)

• Extensive built-in help pages

  In previous versions, you might have noticed the rollover effect in the interface headers. These headers can now be clicked for detailed information. Also, a new help button in the toolbar lists all the available help files.

2009.02.11

• Kipper 2.3: Revised birthday edition
• Major image archive upload error fixed
• Password error fixed
• Upload routine bypassed in website interface
• X update count and RSS feed count now function independently (this wasn't an error, just a needed improvement)

2009.02.10

• Kipper 2.2: Birthday edition!
• New/edit/delete post functions, enabled for TinyMCE
• Image upload (works on desktop and website)
• Much smaller icons
• Color code chart
• More interface notes and a short help document

• Encryption for username and password

  Please note that the set username and password no longer appear in the page settings; leave the fields blank to leave the username and password unchanged.

• Security image validation for "lucky charms"

2009.02.04

• Kipper 2.01: reasonably important update!

• Interface control consolidated

  Setting interface choices now affect all jobs; so if you set a particular color scheme, you don't have to keep changing it. If you change your good luck charm, it will follow you from job to job. Most importantly, Kipper security info now needs to be set only once for all jobs.

• Browser caching fixed

  Good grief, Opera was even caching the login page! Apart from that issue, though, Opera seems to handle the page content on the screen more smoothly than Firefox.

• Charm picks hold better (automatic save)

• Added %20 browser workaround for blank spaces in charm filenames
• Logout button less hidden
• Error handling improved
• Independently created logo replaces corny basketball-style logo
