Drukkar

The platform's main advantage is its very lightweight PHP blogging engine for easily posting new content online.

Coupled with the lack of a database and the usage of local XML files, this makes Drukkar a very fast blogging tool.

Drukkar's light user interface also makes it ideal for developers that love to build their own themes from scratch and not be impeded by already existing styles.

Drukkar may not be New York Times' choice of technology but it can easily be used by regular users to publish short stories or personal opinions online.

What is new in this release:

• Fixed empty document title when no post is specified.
• Fixed sidebar content being shifted to the right.

What is new in version 2.0.0:

• The big change this release is the introduction of theming. You can select what theme your blog is going to use with the theme setting in config.xml.
• A new default theme called flat. The old theme is still available under the name web1.0 and has been improved to accommodate the new elements (see below).
• A navbar and a sidebar have been added to the layout. (See the screenshots on the project page.)
• New blog entries' file names will include their titles. Due to this generating links with titles is obsolete and the setting entry_links_with_titles has been removed from config.xml.

What is new in version 1.10:

• Drukkar now implements caching for every dynamically generated page a visitor can see (plus opt-in search caching). Caches expire when the files used to generate them (data or code) have been updated. This should decrease the CPU usage on your server dramatically.
• files.php now includes a pretty text file viewer.
• The dynamically generated HTML code, including that of administrative pages, has been made more human-readable, with line breaks in all the right places.
• Lots of little optimizations related to string operations.
• The PHP code has also been reformatted to look better and fit the standard 80-column view.
