Announcing CMS Made Simple 1.2.1


It’s that time again. This is a maintenance release with no security fixes, so use your judgement for upgrading (just backup, please!).
Thanks go out to RonnyK, hExDj, reneh, and fransman for testing this one!

Version 1.2.1 "Bridgetown"
-----------------

- New versions of News, Search, Tiny, and FileManager modules
- see the documentation for each module to [...]

It appears that this upgrade causes problems for anyone with UDTs.

it's also a very large DIFF file.. 1219 files; due to several new module versions. (compare to 1824 files in the full 1.2.0 archive). i was surprised to even see a diff considering the amount of "new" modules.


from the 1.2 announcement:

    * We intend this to be the last version of the 1.x series unless there are critical bugs or security issues that pop up

what happened to that? its nice to see some additional work being done on 1.2, as it will be the last php4 version (regardless of php's EOL of php4, many hosts and hosting customers WILL be slow to migrate to php5), but it was entirely unexpected -- was expecting fixes only -- there were only a couple of crucial fixes to get out, neither of them security related.. all these new modules and tricks, this is more like a 1.3, not 1.2.1

perhaps those daily snapshots need to start back up so interim releases like this can get some additional exposure... had there been one of 1.2.1, the issues people are having with it now (news, tags) probably would have been spotted before release.

Only my {count} code don't work anymore.

Can anyone fix this code for me please

global $gCms;

$db = &$gCms->db;

// Get number of comments
$q = "SELECT * FROM ".cms_db_prefix()."module_comments WHERE  page_id =".$params['theid'];
$dbresult = $db->Execute( $q );
if( !$dbresult )
{
    echo 'DB error: '. $db->ErrorMsg()."";
}
$num_rows = $dbresult->RecordCount();
echo $num_rows;

the cms_date_format modifier was the culprit (though I don't quite understand why yet).  Anyways, it seems to be fixed in svn and I'm just waiting on some testing.
