After rebuilding the default site layout, my browser was showing a "Notice - BIT_ROOT_PATH already defined in..." error message.

Today the error message is gone...

Well, I've downloaded the v2.0.2 zip file, used the upgrade information.

Hmmm. Got a White Screen Of Death with complaints about an unknown, but database kinda looking, object. Gak! I detest twiddling databases, but I'm committed now.

So, navigated to bitweaver.org's Schema Changelog, fired up MySQL's Query Browser (is it just me, or does using a query to issue commands seem just plain weird?), and starte…

Informal notes on getting started with upgrading bitweaver 2.0 to 2.1

I am sad seeing bitweaver loosing power and momentum in the last months. Okay, R2 is out, but still not really officially? Not much of new content on this site, forums not really active too. What is the problem?

I tried to promote bitweaver project a bit myself, however, my attempt to restore bw Wikipedia page was not successful yet. As I said in the forums, bitweaver was 95% working for me, but the 5% were almost killing it for any kind of project. Spider was talking of the necessity of an e…

Many of the SEOptimisers will get busy starting from June 1, 2008 to August 31, 2008 for optimising for the keyphrase Busby SEO Challenge and we are one of those who will get busy. Bitweaver.org is our choice because it is a very nice CMS site.

Man, was it a headache looking for a decent open source Content Management System. I knew there were some out there but only knew a local (Czech) one. I wanted to create an English site and did not want to translate the Czech one.

First I found OpenSourceCMS site where you can pretty much access frontend and backend demo installations of the listed CMSs. This is very helpful for the Joe Webmaster. One can quickly touch various scripts w…

I salute your use of phpBB for the message boards... I've been looking around at several CMS/Wiki software programs and found that if your primary need is a BB then the one in TikiWiki is just horrible. Do all phpBB mods work on bitweaver? If you are using phpBB and TikiWiki isn't how can you maintain compatability?

I have re-organized the first bitweaver ReleaseAl into directories, known as a bitweaverPackage. You can browse this reorganization at http://spidercore.steelsun.com/bonnie/ and download a tarball there. Note, this code does not work, nor is it final. It's just the first pass at the boring work of moving all the files into much more modular groupings.

Next steps will be to make all those buckets actually work, which is a whole lot of
find . -name "*tpl" -exec perl -i -wpe "s/foo…

I just got bitweaver 1.3.1 up and working and discovered there is a bitweaver 2.

I am brand new. I don't care about any of the data I put into 1.3.

I downloaded 2 unzipped it and replaced the old with then new. When I run the installer it says 1.3.1.

I opened the install.php up and it says 1.3. Any ideas what I need to do to upgrade to 2.0.

bitweaver developers wanted for some help in a project

I got to bitweaver administration after some time again. Hm, nice to see features have been added in R2. Hm, sad to see I can not (still) handle the CMS administration correctly it in the time amount I have for it. I have 2 ideas how to make bitweaver easier. Please take them as rough feature suggestions.

Administrative levels
This feature would simply allow to set my administrative skills level (beginner, advanced, freak etc.) and would hide some settings I might not need. The bitweaver…

Bitweaver ( and many projects like it ) give you one thing that commercial projects can't, don't and never will: participation. I joined the bitweaver dev-team a few months back and found out how open the team really is.

No where else have I had the opportunity to be involved in the inner-most workings of a project. In IRC I am able to both ask questions and give my input on where particular bitweaver issues are headed and have it count based on it's merit, not because I have a…
