Pinned

We have just set up a new Mastodon account. Please feel free to follow us there at indieweb.social/@textpattern #mastodon #cms #opensource #indieweb


Our pair of wobbly servers have been reconfigured and reassured. They are now behaving as intended. Thank you for your patience.


We are pleased as punch to announce the release of Textpattern CMS 4.9.0 beta.1: textpattern.com/weblog/textpat…


Announcing our intentions for Textpattern 4.9.0 and beyond: Textpattern CMS 4.9.0 will support PHP 8.4 and MySQL 8.4 textpattern.com/weblog/textpat…


PSA: Textpattern forum is offline, there is a database connection problem. Please stand by.


…*ahem*… Happy 20th birthday, us! 🎂 textpattern.com/weblog/textpat…


Our account got suspended, now it's back! All our followers were removed. All our followings were removed. It's like 2010 all over again…


…and that concludes the 1300UTC forum maintenance window. Thanks for your patience.


The Textpattern forum will be offline for maintenance from 1300UTC on Dec 13 2023.


Hey, Textpattern fam. Our new @digitalocean server needs a name. You can help us decide. The candidate list is attached as a poll. Please vote! Thank you for your interest in Textpattern… and appreciation of how important server-naming is. cf. xkcd.com/910/


We'll be following up with an article or two about how @textpattern use @digitalocean services in our project. Expect that in 2023 Q1. If there's anything specific you'd like to know, please leave a note here.


Dear @textpattern family, Please join me in thanking @digitalocean for renewing Textpattern project website hosting as part of their #opensource initiatives. As the server grease monkey, let me say this - total game-changer. [1/2] digitalocean.com/?utm_source=op… digitalocean.com/open-source?ut…


Textpattern CMS reposted

Over 1 million people have joined Mastodon since October 27. Between that and those who returned to their old accounts, the number of active users has risen to over 1.6 million today, which, for context, is over 3 times what it was just about two weeks ago!


PHP 8.2.0 is targeted for release on November 24 2022. We are working on Textpattern 4.8.9 with initial support for PHP 8.2.0, along with functional & accessibility improvements to our gutsy CMS 💛. Progress & release info here: github.com/textpattern/te…


√ Server issues resolved. √ All systems are functional. - We'll be implementing an Upptime[1] instance soon. [1] upptime.js.org


…and if you're thinking "we only hear from @textpattern when something breaks", there's perhaps some truth in that. We're working on support for the upcoming PHP 8.2, and the upcoming Textpattern 4.9 will have some really cool stuff. When that's nearly ready, we'll tell you. 💛


Thank you for your continued patience with this situation, we appreciate your understanding. Sometimes open source software can be challenging, but the advantages *vastly* outweigh the disadvantages, and there's *always* a learning experience somewhere. Learn by doing. [6/6]


Nginx 1.23.0 is compiled from source and active. Our sites are back online (for now), and if they survive past 07:00 UTC tomorrow, then we are a little closer to finding the issue. Textpattern forum topic: forum.textpattern.com/viewtopic.php?… Nginx forum topic: forum.nginx.org/read.php?2,294… [5/?]


At the moment, Nginx 1.23.1 appears to segfault (panic, if you prefer) at about 07:00 and it chews up all the CPU, which knocks some of our sites offline. This didn't happen with Nginx 1.23.0, so we're rolling back right now. [4/?]
