I just added a new plugin to the beta of AVBlog 1.5;

it's simply a Flickr plugin that allows to have on the side of the blog a number (defined in the configuration settings) of Flickr photos provided by a Flickr RSS Url (the url is defined into the configuration settings too).

It's pretty simple and it does nothing new compared to the tool that Flickr already allow to bloggers; anyway it's was so easy to add that i decided to implement; it's time that i do not touch the plugins system of AVBlog and i just realized how simple and fast is to implement new features using this system.

Again the biggest problem is documentation; i've almost finished an Italian Manual, now i've to find the time to start the English transalation.

For additional plugins functionality please, write to me.

The second beta of AVBlog 1.5 is near to be released.

I've fixed some problems and added these features:

- Import from BlogCFC 4.0
- Import from WordPress 1.5.2
- Wizard for importing data from DB to XML
- SES url for all links related to Posts
- SES url for pages created by the CMS plugin
- Implented a version checker.

Now it's ready, at this address:

You can see an installation of the new beta.

Unfortunately Flash Forms on this server now are not working so the link to 'Configuration Settings' is not working.

To enter in the administration simply click the link on the top of the blog and user these information:
