their results, as opposed to having them return their view back
upstream. This is a little more code in every controller, but it's
much less magical and more consistent.
Look up the active_theme and active_admin_theme inside the view
itself, no need to do that in the controllers. This makes view
initialization easier in the controllers.
Track a set of rules in Graphics_Rule_Model which specify how we turn
original images into thumbnails and resizes. There's one set of rules
that applies to every image in the Gallery.
Track the state of thumbs and resizes with a "dirty" bit. The new
graphics helper manages the rules and can rebuild the thumbs and
resizes for any images that are considered "dirty".
Introduce the concept of an "album cover" which is an item that an
album points to. We'll use that item as the source for the album's
thumbnail/resize.
Conflated with this change (sorry!) I also changed the Var table to
use module_name instead of module_id. This may be marginally less
efficient, but it's much easier to follow in the database.
Each module now has a "module.info" file that has information about
the module, including the core. We can display the installed version,
and the version in the code.
Also take a first shot at a modules admin page.
the various modules. In the process, rename xxx_menu::site_navigation() to just
xxx_menu::site(). And add xxx_menu::admin().
The menus are the same as before, but I changed the HTML to be
consistent with the way that we do it in the regular site, and this
broke the superfish styles. I don't know how to fix this.. help me
Chad!
