Manchester Meeting 20th September (evening)

Super — Wed, 25 Jul 2007 09:32:00 GMT

Phil Winstanley has been of enormous help in arranging for a meeting in Manchester at the Digital Development Agency (http://manchester.vbug.net/LocationList.aspx?id=1).

Austin and I will be reprising our presentations from the meeting at TVP looking at Terminal Services Gateway, Core Server and Read Only Domain Controllers.

We will be starting at 6pm and heading for the pub at 9pm look forward to seeing everyone.

Please respond to this post if you are coming so we can keep everyone informed.

Added the CodeHighlight CSModule to the site

One of the strengths of Community Server is the available modules, themes etc. we can use. To that end I have added the CodeHighlight CSModule (http://communityserver.org/files/folders/csmodules/entry577311.aspx) to make it easier for people to post formatted code. Instructions are below. No PowerShell support currently although it looks fairly easy to update the Definitions.xml file supplied with the module.

In order to use the code highlighting in your posts use the tags structure [ code language="language name"] [ /code] in a post's body without the space between the opening square brackets and the code or /code text - the space is their in the example to prevent the code highlighter formating the example.

Languages supported: ASPX, C, C++, C#, COBOL, Eiffel, Fortan, Haskell, HTML, Java, Javascript, Mercury, MSIL, Pascal, Perl, PHP, Python, Ruby, SQL, Visual Basic, VBScript, VB.NET, XML.

Make sure that the code pasted in your post, has no previous formating - copy the code to notepad first and then to the post's body in order to remove formating.

We are live

Still a way to go but we are live including uploading Austin's excellent presentation from our first meeting on 5th of July.

More customisation to come including new forums specifically for the Server 2008 beta.
