Multi-site capabilities now intact

**new multi-site functionality and update to django source from subversion repo**

i have managed to get through three of my 4 TODOs from my last post, which was enough to set up our first paying client, and thus test the production environment and its new functionality for managing multiple websites using the same project source. as i documented the process for the others in the team to deploy a website using bodhi, i realised how many steps were involved, most of which will be automated over the coming releases. one thing is for certain, we will not be able to host these services in a plesk environment. we will need a separate server dedicated to the bodhi service. in addition, i updated the django source code from the djangoproject subversion repo. there was just recently a new official release of Django, 0.95, and the subversion repo is even more up to date. one of the most exciting changes is the addition of full user management through the admin panel, which means that you can create a new user with a password and verification of password, where before you had to supply your own SHA1 encrypted password. totally lame. anyway, now the auth system is pretty much complete, with the lamentable exception of being able to extend the user model. but i hear they are working on that. 0 Comments, 0 trackbacks (Trackback URL)
