Pligg CMS 1.1.2 Released
This update includes a number of bug fixes and general improvements to make Pligg CMS compatible with the latest version of the EVB module as well as the new Karma module. There has been at least one security fix applied to this version of Pligg, so it is highly advised that all users make the upgrade in an appropriate amount of time
The Karma module will allow sites to update member karma values as users perform actions such as logging in, submitting stories, or adding a comment to an article. Previously karma was only being calculated when websites would manually set up a crontab on their web server, telling the server to crawl a karma update script every X number of hours. Now all of the updates are generated on the fly, making user karma counts up to date at all times and requiring no additional thought from the site administrator to set it up. Administrators will however have the option to manually configure karma values, by setting up how many points they want to give users for performing actions like submitting stories and comments, or voting on articles.
