I used on my blog system-wide images located in a static directory (for instance the XML button). With the redirection to subdomains these images have vanished.
The old code has been
< img src="/static/xmlbutton.gif" width="36" border="0" alt="xml version of this page" height="14" / >
Could you tell me where the image (or the static directory) has moved to?

A bit confusing is now (I think its a bug) the location of the proper layout skins. In the section Default skins -> Site Layout you find the "Main page" skin. This is (now) the old default antville "Main page" skin although I changed that skin to my needs before. The changed "Main skin" is now found at "Modified skins" what makes sense. But there are two of them. Altogether there are 3 "Main skins" now. Which is valid? Some modified skins are shown in the section "Modified skins", others also in "Default skins". all a bit confusing now.

The author of the story isn't linked to the email address or URL that is entered in the preferences. He/Her is linked to a members section of the blog. Why?

Please give some brief explanation of the new tag features. What's new?

Further, logged in as a site admin the first line after the "Tags:" word reads now "[deprecated]", What does it mean?

Also inside the story editor the tag section begins with "[deprecated]"

Please give a brief description of new features of typolis:

How and where do you add a favicon (your blog's icon) to the rss skin to make it appear in a rss news reader?

again? Was a nice idea to merge all issues on social and cooperative web project, including the promotion of your own stuff.

How can you tweak your typolis blog to show more than three-day's stories on the frontpage?
I'd like to show the stories of a full week on the frontpage.

(As I know from different antville installations this setting is done in the blog's preferences, but -- seemingly -- disabled in favour of a default setting of 3 days.)

By default, this menu has six links: »Members«, »Preferences«, »Layouts«, »Modules«, »Referrers« and »Most Read Stories«.

This menu appears only for the admins of the specific blog. Upgrade the status of a blogmember in the members section.

»Preferences«, »Layouts« and »Modules« is for advanced users only. You can damage your whole blog with just one stupid click. So be carfeful and THINK before you CLICK.
If you ever clicked before you've thought and your blog doesn't work anymore send us a mail: trouble@typolis.net.

»Referrers« and »Most Read Stories« is the statistics section of you blog. OK, we must admit, it's not as cool as Google Analytics, it's more likely kind of »first steps in web statistics«.

For your personal second step in web statistics read our How to Integrate Google Analytics.

Advanced Users: Change the Menu in -->Layouts --> Skins --> Site Layout --> Navigation --> ...

By default, there are only the two links »Home« and »Tags« in the Menu for users.

These two links appear in every Blog, no matter if its your own one or not.
With »Home« you get to the homepage of the blog, e.g. typolis.net/yoursite.
With »Tags« you get to the overview of tags that have been used in this single blog. Explore the blog this way by tag.

Advanced Users: Change the Menu in -->Layouts --> Skins --> Site Layout --> Navigation --> ...

By default, this menu has four links: »Add a Story«, »Manage Stories«, »Manage Images« and »Manage Files«.

This menu appears only for contributors of the specific blog. As admin, upgrade the status of a blogmember in the members section of your menu.

Within the »Manage« sections are lists of your contributed stories, images and files. Edit, delete and rename your stuff here. If you forgot the <% link %> to your image oder file you'll find it here.

Advanced Users: Change the Menu in -->Layouts --> Skins --> Site Layout --> Navigation --> ...

You know where to login? And you know where to register your blog? These are the two most important things. The rest is really easy.

Your blog has (for you as admin) three separated menus: on top the »menu for users«, next the »menu for contributors« and on bottom the »menu for admins«.

From these three menus you can administrate the whole weblog.
