I’ve added multiple-user support to Rollator; now to add functionality to the system beyond basic authentication.

Currently proposed ideas for administration: ‘Edit/Add’ permissions, file administration, ‘specific area administration’, such as only allowing data entry into the ‘diary’ subset, only able to edit their own entries, et al.

I’m also contemplating the ability to generate RSS based upon user entry – this might make things kind of messy, though for people who lack the ability or knowledge to configure Apache’s mod_rewrite.

Right now, I’m thinking of a simplistic enhancement into the RSS backend: Posting either a search term, or a username with a fallthrough to nullify if the terms are invalid or return no result.

Right now, the proper way to generate a feed is to call /path/to/rollator.php?op=backend. An addition might look like: /path/to/rollator.php?op=backend&name=shawn, or /path/to/rollator.php?op=backend&search=rollator

You can test a fairly-current revision available on my SourceForge installation. So, any thoughts, peeps? ;)

Also, unrelated, I’d like to thank zhixel for pointing out that my background image set in my CSS for the body was probably what was making Mozilla based browsers ‘scroll too goddamned slow’. As it’s rather un-necessary with my semi-static pinstripe image, I’ve since changed it to scroll. ;)
