The Tool-Box custom s9y pack

The Tool-Box custom s9y pack contains various modifications done to plugins as well as the Toolbox theme that I made for use with this website. All files ending with 'copy' are original versions of the files. Unzip the whole thing and copy the files to the appropriate s9y folders. Simple folder replacing in Finder may delete all other files in the folder so beware.

Korean Support in Full Gear!

Alright, good news for all those who wanted Korean support on my website.
After wasting a whole day, I have created an up-to-date Korean support for the s9y blog system. It seems to be working okay, although there are a couple of labels that look weird (it's not fixable from my end so I've reported this to the creator of s9y). There is also now a language support drop box on the right. You'll be able to see the site in Korean and read Korean versions of the articles (not all that much atm).

Creating Korean language pack

s9y's Korean language pack is outdated and needs to be rewritten from scratch. The website will be gradually getting changes as I update it string by string.

Use the darn UTF-8 encoding....

How is it that the English setting is defaulting to ISO-8859-1 encoding...
This corrupts any Korean entries... not good for multilingualism.

As a workaround I simply switched the encoding field in the English language data to UTF-8.
Seems like this is the way to go if the menus are to remain English and have Korean entries intact.

Anyways, I think this should help mark the first successful Korean blog entry.

Use Mac as a Web Server (Appendix)

[Related to: Use Mac as a Web Server]

After setting up a domain name for your website, you might want to change the domain name setting for phpBB and s9y so you can administer them from anywhere.

phpBB

Login to phpBB and click Go to Administration Panel. Re-authenticate and you'll be at the admin page. Click Configuration under General Admin. The first setting should read Domain Name. Enter your domain name here instead of 127.0.0.1 or whatever IP address it had before. Scroll down and press Submit to complete.

s9y

Login via Blog Administration. On the admin page, click Configuration under Administration. Open up Path and find URL to blog. Enter http://domain_name/serendipity/ where domain_name is your domain name and serendipity is the folder where your s9y files are in.
