2.2.3 Came out on 12-2-2005 and is up and running. Mary Beth is
correct when she says you should un-install and re-install when you
want to upgrade to 2.2.3 Version of YSB. The rumor is that 2.2.4 is
going to solve even more issues and make YSB even more robust. It
was rumored to be out in April but we don't know that for sure.
It is said that when 2.2.4. is out and ready for use, that those
with a good working load of 2.2.3.'s version (installed and
working), they will not have to un-install to get the upgrade. It is
also know that 2.2.1. could run in/with WIN98 but that all versions
since have to run with XP only. Even the WIN98 issues of 2.2.1. are
NOT suggested.
Since day 1 with YSB there have been many issues and needs for us to
be a user group in touch. There have been many needs for us to have
to look for workarounds and alternate solutions to many issues.
Overall, the YSB Product is good and is doing better. One example of
YSB becoming better is the way it works with Pics in version 2.2.3.
and newer. With both 2.2.1. and 2.2.2. you could not have pictures
(or jpg) files with the same names. Now in 2.2.3., you can load pic
files up with a source file on your PC and know that it will have
the related picture show up with the page it needs to be. We all
were used to pic handling with FP (Front Page), in the fact that a
file name was what it took to have and that what would show up. That
meant that albums, slide shows and catalogs or any pages made to
handle pictures could not be templates (with files by name loaded by
FTP means). In YSB you cannot expect pictures to be handled like FP
did. It just will not work. In YSB you almost always have to make a
new master template and use it to load a catalog (or update single
pictures one at a time). This is a pain on one hand and good on
another. It's good for YSB users who always want the picture
associated with the source folder (on the PC) to load the pictures
that went with it from the get go.
Auction, Store Catalogs and other albums 'just would not work' if
you were building a template and reloading only pictures for each
week (such as loading pictures only). For that process to work, we
suggest you use NVU or FP or even some other FTP loadable page
making means. YSB was not the solution at all.
Why? PNG filter and conversion parts of the YSB program. The parts
of the program are very complex and very exact. This is also why the
YSB Program should not be used to FTP a site up and back. It just
does not work correctly (and it shows if the /sitebuilder folder is
not activated). The /sitebuilder folder (is a mystery) is key to the
PNG system (like the compression in some other web loaders), and
it's usually active only when a loaded site is loaded. Bringing the
site back to a source folder set on your PC may not ever be a
process you can do.
All users of YSB products may know that only sites designed to be
using sub-domains can be brought back to a source folder. This also
means that all sites where you load at the root, could become dumps
in the upload mode only. No bringing anything back seems to be
possible. This also means that not anything you do to back up your
system accept a Yahoo level backup can be done. If you want to
reload a site you think is lost, you must load it from the source
folder (set in YSB on your PC as sites) on your computer. You may
not be able to grab part of it and then doctor it and push it back
to the web site and see it work right. Therefore creative up only on
bigger sites is usually a way things have to be done.
Note also: Unless know needs of the /folders and /sub-domain folders
are planned by design (in the first place), many sites fail to work
well at first. Once the needs and methods are understood and part of
the SOP (standard operating procedure), most web sites limp along at
half what they could be. Most YSB user built sites are not built to
meet these needs only because Yahoo does not tell you about the
complexity, the one way only issues and the need to just dump some
files up. They don't want to hide them from you, but they just don't
always let you know that it the way it is going to be.
Now many of us who use YSB as part of complex sites (to sell or
provide information) are in the know but don't have time to build
documentation for the public. We don't do it for the general public
but we know here at our web staff room, a lot more than we did when
YSB came to our tool box. We like it, we love it, we hate it, we
love to make it work better, we love to share it and we love to
watch what it has become in time. What will it be like when it's 5
or even 10 years old?
