I’ve just taken the new beta site of Emo Today. It may not look any different but it’s a massive change – I’ve basically re-written the site this evening.
In terms of asphetics and what you can actually see changed, there is now a margin at the bottom of the page, the words lyrics has been removed from end of each line on the track listings for an album, it will no longer display the track listings box if there are no lyrics and the lyrics page has a slightly different title. Other than that I don’t think anything has changed.
Behind the scenes though – first of all, the old MySQL stuff has gone, replaced by my database class. All the main template code has been moved into header and footer includes. The news database connection now only kicks in on the news page. There is more SQL validation to stop attacks. Loads of stuff has changed.
It’s also worth loading that there is a fresh load of new content including biographies and album reviews to check out. Some new genres to categorise the stuff into as well.
Don't have time to check my blog? Get a weekly email with all the new posts. This is my personal blog, so obviously it is 100% spam free.
