Alpha-Fox now delivers news through Subnova using an RSS feed. The website's news page displays the 20 most recent articles, and efforts are underway to expand visibility across the site. Additionally, Alpha-Fox has created its own personalized RSS feed after some work with PHP.
An attempt to upgrade bbPress to version 1.0 and fix blank user issues in the Stargates led to unexpected problems. While the bbPress update initially seemed fine, removing WordPress integration to consolidate blog posts on Subnova caused login failures on the Alpha-Fox website. Further issues arose when the forums also became unusable. After hours of troubleshooting, the problem was traced to missing WordPress integration, which had affected login cookies. A simple fix in config.php restored functionality, serving as a reminder not to tackle too many changes at once.
The Alteran Stargate Network will officially launch version 1.0 with a release party at the Subnova Citadel on August 31, 2008. After an extensive beta phase, this milestone will be celebrated on the West Flight Deck, where a dedicated Stargate will allow attendees to arrive in style. Event details, including music and possible contests, are still being finalized. Stay tuned for updates!
The promised llTeleportAgent function for Second Life, originally expected in version 1.8 back in 2006, is still missing. This feature would be highly beneficial to the Alteran Network, as current workarounds like automap.lsl and AFTP have proven insufficient. Linden Lab is urged to prioritize this function, and users are encouraged to vote on the related PJIRA request to push for its implementation.
Zachary Carter will have limited availability for Alpha-Fox-related releases until after June 12, 2008, due to upcoming examinations. Development, including the RC1 release, will resume once those commitments are completed.
