Bug Tracking Report - May 2007

Last week I remember that I was contacted by one person who was very interested in test driving the new SEO Website CMS, but he underlined the importance of not having too many bugs because he "hates making patches" the hard way -- by add code to this line, remove this line and etc -- so we promised him that we will shoot as many bugs as possible before releasing the beta testing version. Yepp, so that's exactly what we did.
Since the list is quite big, I'll highlight some of the most important bugs that we fixed and some that we're still working on:
- Security vulnerability for user to enter administrator level only by knowing the user-name. Status FIXED!
- Submission of listings to the Directory requires user registration. Now we made low level user which does not need to be verified and therefore makes easy submissions. Status FIXED
- Options for Listing Texts to be changed. Status IN PROGRESS
- SEKT keyword hit counter increments hits by URL not by Keyword. Status FIXED
- SEKT option for clearing old listings. Status NOT EVEN STARTED
- RSS 2.0 Feed returns "wild" characters due to encoding issues. Status PARTIALLY FIXED. Needs more work
- Manual limit on the number of news and blog listings to be published via RSS. Status FIXED.
- Per Article manual button for listing being placed on Main Page and Published via RSS. Status PARTIALLY FIXED
We have much more fixes that this but those are the main issues that I can remember....
Also I would like to add that we changed/redesigned the Administrator interface and made it quite user friendly. There are still changes that require some additional coding for the menu and etc (not to display options that are currently disabled and returning error messages, but they should be fixed easily when we have time to invest in them.
With all those changes the CMS took really professional look and its options are increasing exponentially every day. This brings me to the conclusions that this CMS will definitely rule the Web 2.0 world.
