Revised example of jQuery UILayout Integration

A while ago I wrote on my blog a short post describing how to use the jQuery's UILayout plugin along with HomePortals. That was written for the early beta of HomePortals 3.1, and since then a lot has changed so the example given no longer works. I have updated the blog post and the code examples, along with the included zip file so that it works with the most recent HomePortals version.

Version 3.1.570 Released

Last night I uploaded to the site the latest upload of the HomePortals framework. Current release is 3.1.570. This release mostly contains bug fixes and some enhancements, but it also includes some interesting new features such as smart default, context object and the new 'text' content renderer.

Also this will be the last release on the 3.1 branch (unless any critical bugs appear), as I will start now working on version 3.2. So if anyone has some ideas, requests, or any other comments as to the direction of HomePortals please let me know on the comments or even better by joining the Google Groups mailing list.

Wiki Moved and Trac Site Open

The HomePortals Wiki has been moved to the HomePortals Trac site. The previous CodeX-based wiki is no longer available. The reason for the move was to consolidate HomePortals resources, and provide a single place to deal with documentation (wiki), ticket/issue tracking and source code browsing.

The URL for the Trac site is: http://wencho.svnrepository.com/homePortals/trac.cgi

Building The HomePortals Wiki

One of the weakest points in the HomePortals project is the lack of documentation still. However to address that issue I have been working on setting up a wiki for HomePortals to provide developers with information about the framework, where everything is, and how to develop applications for it.

The new wiki is located at http://wiki.homeportals.net and is powered by the promising CodexWiki from Luis Majano and Mark Mandel. So far I have only been able to complete a few pages on the wiki but work is in progress and hopefully it will be more complete very soon.

Feel free to checkout the wiki and if you have suggestion of topics that you would like to see there please let me know by leaving a comment here.
