The HG Downloads System was updated during the blog’s downtime. Here’s the changelog:

  • BUG – Fixed a possible XSS vulnerability
  • NEW – User Profile: Added link to view all comments by the user
  • NEW – User Profile: Added ability to view file and review/comment statistics for the user even if a forum account is not found. This is a backward-compatibility fix for sites that was converted from the Blacksmith system
  • NEW – Comments: Authors are now notified via email when a user comments on their file
  • NEW – Comments: You can now view the latest comments in any file category via a link from the main page, or from the New Comments link in the categories navigation box on the left.
  • NEW – Administration: You can now run rudimentary IP check on users
  • NEW – Comments & Reviews: They are now searchable.
  • CHANGED – Updated the URL encoding scheme for filenames. It was still using the old s/ /+/ trick which doesn’t do it for other special characters that needs to be encoded.
