The XOOPS China Community is pleased to announce the release of XoopsLifeType 1.0.2 RC!

XoopsLifeType is a XOOPS module integrating LifeType (http://www.lifetype.net) 1.2.5, which is an open-source blogging platform with support for multiple blogs and users in a single installation.

Download
--------------------
You can download XoopsLifeType from xoopschina@sourceforge:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=120014


Features
--------------------
1. Integrated user acount system of XOOPS and LifeType;
2. Integrated LifeType's installation system into XOOPS, so you can install/upgrade/uninstall LifeType directly in XOOPS's admin panel;
3. Added some XOOPS' blocks, such as Latest blogs and integrated XOOPS' search. (Note: we've changed LifeType's original /templates/ to /themes/, and the /templates/ contained XOOPS's templates only);
4. Added XOOPS Frameworks' CAPTCHA to anti spam-comments;
5. Supported none UTF-8 encoding, such as gb2312, big5.


TODO
--------------------
1. Moving writable folders out of lifetype (cache, tmp and gallery)


System requirements

1. XOOPS 2.0.X (Note: We've tested XoopsLifeType under XOOPS 2.0.x, but not XOOPS 2.2.x);
2. Frameworks 1.20+ (Download: http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=120014).


Installing
--------------------
1. Upload XoopsLifeType to your server's ROOT/modules/, and ensure the structure is ROOT/modules/lifetype/XOOPS_version.php;
2. Ensure "ROOT/modules/lifetype/tmp/" and "ROOT/modules/lifetype/gallery/" are writable by the webserver (chmod 777);
3. Click XoopsLifeType's Install button in the Control Panel "System/modules";
4. After installing XoopsLifeType, you can create a default blog simply by visiting "www.yourwebsite.com/modules/lifetype/index.php".
