Hey, it’s been a while hasn’t it?  Five years in fact since the last update.

Well, this afternoon Ryuzine Press 1.2 and Ryuzine Reader+Rack 1.1 both dropped.

Ryuzine Press 1.2 fixes an issue when you install the Ryuzine webapp from scratch (instead of just updating it) where the unzipped folder wasn’t getting renamed properly.  This update also adds support for the ComicPost plugin.

Ryuzine Reader+Rack 1.1 updates the built-in Social Widget to remove several defunct social platforms and adds support for sharing to Threads, Bluesky, and Mastodon. Oh, and the “iScroll” add-on was removed because it has been abandoned and doesn’t work right anymore anyway. So if you enabled the “iScroll Add-on” in your installation you’ll want to disable it or you may experience a JS stop error.

For developers the other big change is that the Ryuzine projects are now in “maintenance and compatibility” status. No new features are planned, just keeping the webapp and plugin working with their current feature set. If you want to contribute fixes to the projects it’s a lot simpler now as they’ve been converted from GitHub subtrees to just FOUR monolithic repositories.
