From version 0.94-0.98.1 to 0.98.3

Run scripts/fix-unfiled-tags.php to fix old bookmarks that miss the system:unfiled tags.

From version 0.97 to 0.98

Database updates

Apply data/schema/6.sql

ALTER TABLE sc_users ADD privateKey VARCHAR(33) NULL; CREATE UNIQUE INDEX privateKey ON sc_users (privateKey);

From version 0.96 to 0.97

No database changes necessary.

From version 0.95 to 0.96

API

The method signatures of addBookmark() and updateBookmark() changed due to the addition of the $short parameter.

We got complaints about the changed file structure, and people told us that they just cannot set the document root to www/, because they are not admins on their HTTP server. This is a valid point, and with 0.96.0 you can easily change it. See INSTALL.txt for more information about moving www/.

From version 0.94 to 0.95

The file structure completely changed in 0.95.0 compared to previous versions. We recommend that you start with a fresh installation, just copying over your config.php file. Set your web server document root directory to www/.

Yes, we kind of lost the ability to run SemanticScuttle in a subdirectory of a hostname. This functionality will be back in one of the next releases, but for now, you have to live with it.

Update your database

Apply data/schema/4.sql.

Currently, only MySQL can be used as database backend. All other DBMS (database management systems) have not been tested except for PostgreSQL, and SemanticScuttle fails there.

Translation

The de_AT translation has been re-added. This is because de_AT provides a rather ugly "official German" style, while the normal de_DE is friendlier. Choose what you like.

From version 0.93 to 0.94

Nothing changed except for the default configuration file. It is recommended to start with a fresh config file, but not neccesary. Old config files still work.
If you used translation de_AT, please switch to de_DE. de_AT was moved to de_DE and de_AT has been removed.

From version 0.92 to 0.93

Backup your database
Make a copy from your SemanticScuttle Web directory

Upgrade your current configuration file (config.inc.php) with respect to config.inc.php.example

$footerMessage      = ''; #HTML message appearing at the bottom of the page (just above SemanticScuttle credits)
$sidebarTopMessage  = ''; #HTML message appearing at the top of the sidebar
$sidebarBottomMessage = ''; #HTML message appearing at the bottom of the sidebar
$adminsCanModifyBookmarksFromOtherUsers = true;  # 'true' if admin users can edit or delete bookmarks belonging to other users. Else 'false'.
$adminsAreAdvisedTagsFromOtherAdmins = false;  # 'true' if tags from other admins are proposed to each admin (in add/edit a bookmark page). Else 'false'.
$defaultPerPageForAdmins = 20; # default number of bookmarks per page for admins (-1 means no limit)

From version 0.91 to 0.92

Message: this version modifies the database to UTF-8 charset. The idea is to convert the content (through BLOB type) and then to change the tables' charsets.
