Notice anything different?

The cleaned version of lokorin.com has now been uploaded. The most of the changes are, just as with DFCrafters, in the code and behind the scenes, but you might notice some difference.

First and foremost the documentation and source code for lokorin.com has been uploaded. It is a bit more extensive than DFCrafter's, but the backbone is mostly the same.

Secondly I have made a rather large change to the file structure on the server, in conjunction with a new system I have been wanting to implement for quite a while. You might have noticed that all .php extension have been removed from the menu (and the site in general), that is one of the result of the change. Basically I have separated the external view of the files from the actual structure, so one file structure is used on the server while users see and use a whole different one from the outside. This is done with some mod rewrite code along with a page behind the scenes that routs all incoming calls. So when for instance someone accesses mplf/about they are actually accessing _includes/module_about.php which displays about information depending on the requested folder. The same thing is true for several generic modules and pages that are reused behind the scenes. In addition this allows me to use easier urls, I'm still to design anything that takes advantage of that though.

The rest of the changes that might be visible from the outside are mostly CSS changes and various additions to libraries. I hope that someone finds the documentation and source code useful though.

The cleaning took about as long as with DFCrafters, although I have not cleaned the entire site. I left self contained parts of the site alone, that includes the MPLF's online filter archive's moderation system along with JUpdater's PHP half. I'm a bit tired of PHP now, but I will probably have to clean JUpdater if I can't come up with another project. For now I will try to make sure that nothing broke while uploading the site. Also, please report any strange things you might encounter over the coming days, I'm bound to miss a page or two while testing.
