This section also provides detailed help on how to create applications on social networks for authorization. Total for this moment Six social networks are supported: Vkontakte, Odnoklassniki, Facebook, Yandex, Mail.ru, Google. Thus, your visitors can quickly log in to your site using their login and password on social networks, without having to go through the registration procedure with entering captchas, confirming E-mail, and so on.

Instead, a more convenient selection of the server time zone in which the script will work has been added. Using time zones is more convenient because... Daylight savings will be automatically switched to winter time(for example, if the server is located in Europe and you have set the Moscow time zone, then you do not need to make settings twice a year). The correct time zone of your server will also be broadcast in RSS.

6. Added the possibility of personal selection each registered user of the time zone in which he is located. This opportunity allows site visitors to see for themselves the correct time of publication of articles and comments.

8. Added possibility for polls, added to publications, display them not only when viewing full news, but also when viewing short news. To do this, in the short news template (shortstory.tpl) you can use tag (poll). The survey itself is also designed in the poll.tpl template

9. For short news output templates (shortstory.tpl) added the ability to use banner tags added in managing advertising materials in the admin panel. Thus, you can very flexibly display banners on the pages of your site together with tags (banner_x) and independently determine after which news on the page you want to display advertising.

10. For templates for displaying short and full news (shortstory.tpl and fullstory.tpl) new tags added text, which display text in them in the form of a link to add news to bookmarks on the site, and tags are also added text, which display the text in them in the form of a link to delete news from bookmarks on the site. These tags will allow you to more flexibly customize the design of your site, for those who want to abandon the general tag (favorites), which displays only one pre-programmed picture for the given action.

11. Added new global tags for templates: text, which display the text contained in them if the site is viewed using a smartphone, as well as tags text, which display the text enclosed in them if the site is viewed by the visitor not from a smartphone.

14. Added the ability to specify static pages template files located not only in the root folder of the template, but also files located in subfolders of the template.

15. Added a feature in the cross-reference module assign for each keyword how many replacements of this word should be made on the page.

For full-text search on the site, a logical search mode has been added, which allows you to significantly improve the search on the site and the relevance of the information found on search query. This innovation allows you to show the visitor the most suitable news, comments or static pages that match his request.

17. Improved processing algorithm already existing links on the page when replacing keywords from the cross-referencing module. Mandatory absences are no longer required HTML tags inside links, replacement will not be made regardless of this.

To display additional profile fields, exactly the same tags are used as in profile templates (userinfo.tpl) and comment templates (comments.tpl).

22. The stationary ICQ field has been removed from the user profile database. This decision was made because this messenger has lost its relevance and the use of this field is insignificant, despite the fact that it takes up space in the database. In this case, if necessary, you can create this field as an additional field for your profile and use it if necessary on the site.

23. Added indication of the page number being viewed full news, in the meta title tag, if the news was divided into several pages.

24. Added the ability to the script settings purpose of the separator symbol for the "speedbar" module (breadcrumbs).

33. When adding and editing categories in the script admin panel, added control of reserved CNC link names for categories so that users do not add names that are reserved in DLE for other needs. For example, you won't be able to add a root category named "catalog" because that name is used to organize directories on the site, but you can use that name for a subcategory where that name is no longer reserved, etc.

34. Added more convenient selection of categories when creating or editing additional news fields in the script control panel. 35. Added the ability to specify the number of days in the script settings, during which it is necessary to store script logs for the module “List of all actions performed in the script admin panel”.

41. Problem fixed, in which if the search is repeated, and the user was not on the first page of the search results, he could receive an empty page if fewer news items were found in the new results. Now new search returns the user to the first page of search results.

42. Problem fixed, in which the "speedbar" module (breadcrumbs) displayed the user's nested location on a static page, while in fact he was on home page site, if in the script settings the display of a static page by default for the main page of the site was enabled.

43. Problem fixed, in which if the user edited a news item that was awaiting moderation on the site, he could not manage the pictures uploaded to this news, and if, while editing the news, he re-uploaded the pictures, they were not assigned to this news.

44. Problem fixed related to incorrect work text tags, when used in a custom tag news output (custom...)

The following changes were prepared and implemented:

1. The distribution includes three completely new templates. These templates are created using HTML5 standards. They are fully adaptive, both for desktop browsers and for tablets and smartphones. Also, vector graphics are actively used in the layout of the templates, which ensures their high-quality display on HiDPI (Retina) displays.

2. Added a new type of additional fields for publications: “Downloadable image”. With this type of field, the user is prompted to upload a picture for this news, which will be displayed later when the news is displayed on the site. For this type of field, you can set parameters such as restrictions on the weight and size of the image, whether you need to create a small copy for it, the size of the small copy, and whether to put a watermark on it. Thus, using this type of field makes the process of writing news easier; for example, you can create various types of pictures (posters, screenshots, etc.) and arrange their output in a template, and when adding news, all you have to do is download them in one click.

3. Added a new type of additional fields for publications: “Downloadable file”. With this field type, the user is prompted to upload a file for this news, which will then be downloaded as an attachment. In the settings of this field, you can set file extensions that are allowed for this field when uploading, as well as the maximum weight of the uploaded file. Thus, using this type of field makes the process of writing news easier; for example, you can create various types of files, including pictures directly for downloading (wallpapers in different resolutions) and format their output in a template, and when adding news, all that remains is to download them in one click.

4. Added a new type of additional fields for publications: “Switch “Yes” or “No””. When writing news this type fields are displayed as a “Yes” or “No” switch (Enabled or Disabled). This field displays “Yes” or “No” as a value, depending on what was set when writing the news. However, the main purpose of this field is to manage tags and . If the switch was turned on, then the tags text will display the corresponding text and tags text will remove it, and vice versa. Thus, using these additional fields, you can easily manage the information displayed on the site in templates, in relation to each specific news. For example, enable or disable the display of any tabs with a description on the page, or organize the display of galleries with screenshots or posters, etc.

5. For additional news fields that have the “List” field type, added the ability to create separate values ​​that are displayed in the list when adding a publication, and those that are displayed on the site after the user selects them as values. To do this, when adding a field, you need to use the separator "|" in a list of values, for example: Yes|Yes. When writing news, the user will be given the option Yes to select, and the field value will be displayed on the site as Yes.

6. For additional user profile fields that have the “List” field type, also added the ability to create individual values ​​that are displayed in the list when editing a profile, and those that are displayed on the site after the user selects them as values. To do this, when adding a field, you must also use the separator "|" in a list of values, for example Yes|Yes. When editing a profile, the user will be given the Yes option to select, and the field value will be displayed on the site as Yes.

7. The “Use as cross hyperlinks” mode has been significantly redesigned and improved. for additional news fields. If the field has this option, then the search for news by the field value is based on the complete match of this value in other news, as well as the match of this particular field. For example, if you previously created the “Year of Release” field and set the value to 2015, and at the same time you had another field in which, for example, a picture was loaded, which also had 2015 in its path, then old system displayed both news, because the search was carried out exclusively based on the occurrence of the search word. Which led to the fact that news that was not quite expected was shown. Now, only those news will be shown for which the “Year of Issue” field will have the value 2015. No other fields and their values ​​will be taken into account anymore, which allows for a more extensive use of additional fields to organize cross-linking with each other. For example, by year of release, actors, directors, etc. The new search type is automatically applied only to newly added news. If you want old existing news to participate in this search, then you will need to start rebuilding news in the admin panel, in the “Rebuilding Publications” section, and this will create an index of field values ​​for old existing news.

8. For the main template (main.tpl) the ability has been added displaying additional news fields in it when viewing the full news on the site. To do this, in this template you can use the same tags as for displaying additional fields in the short and full news templates. These are the tags: text, text And

9. For templates that support displaying additional news fields, added support for new tags Text, which display the text enclosed in them if the value of the additional field matches the specified one. And also added the ability to use tags Text, which will output text if the field value does not match the specified one. Where tagname this is the name of the additional field, and tagvalue this is its meaning. For example, Male, this tag will display the text "Male gender", if the field value test will be installed "m" when writing a publication. This opens up great opportunities for creating different template designs depending on the field values ​​set when writing these publications. For example, by creating a field with the “list” type, you can apply different designs depending on the selected item.

10. Improved display of additional fields when quickly editing publications on the site, additional helper classes CSS for the edit form, which can be used to style fields for quick editing.

11. When using authorization on the site using social networks, added the ability for users to set their personal login for the site, which will be used in the future. The login request is carried out only at the time of the first authorization on the site using a social network and will be used automatically in the future. This innovation will be useful for visitors to your website who do not want to use data received automatically from a social network, for example, when the user’s first and last name is used as a login.

12. Added support for emoticons for HiDPI (Retina) monitors. To do this, two copies of emoticons are used, in normal resolution and in high quality. If the monitor has a normal pixel density, then a regular smiley is displayed on it; if the monitor has a HiDPI (Retina) density, then a high-quality copy of it is displayed. The detection and use of emoticons occurs automatically. To do this, you need to place two copies of the emoticon in the folder with emoticons, for example, with the name smile.gif for a regular emoticon and [email protected] for HiDPI (Retina) emoticon. If a copy of the smiley is in high resolution is missing, then the output of a regular smiley will be used in all cases.

13. The distribution includes 60 new emoticons. All of them have support for HiDPI (Retina) displays.

14. Added automatic support for emoticons in .png format. Support is also provided automatically. To do this, you just need to copy the files to the folder with emoticons with the extension .png and specify the name of the emoticon in the script settings.

15. New added global tag:

(customcomments id="1,2,5-8" category="2,3,5-8" author="x" days="x" template="custom" available="global" from="0" limit ="10" order="date" sort="desc" cache="yes") which allows you to display comments anywhere on the site in a custom format. This tag is an auxiliary additional output of comments, and can, for example, be used to display the latest comments on the main page of the site in a block, etc.

This tag can accept the following parameters:

id- the list of comment IDs that you want to display is separated by commas without spaces. You can also indicate a range of comment IDs using a dash. For example, 1,4-8,11 will display comments with ID 1, comments with ID 4 to 8, and also with ID 11.

category- list of news category IDs from which to select comments, separated by commas without spaces. You can also indicate a range of categories using a dash. For example, 1,4-8,11 will display comments from category 1, categories with id 4 to 8, and also from category 11.

16. For comment output templates (comments.tpl) (comment limit="X"), which displays the text of the comment without HTML formatting, while the comment text itself is reduced to the specified "x" number of characters. In this case, the text is shortened to the last logical word, and does not break off the text in the middle of the word. This tag will be useful when using custom comment output using the tag (customcomments...), when you need to display not the entire comment, but only its announcement.

17. For comment output templates (comments.tpl) added support for new tag (newslink), which displays the URL of the news story to which this comment belongs. This tag will be useful when using custom comment display and when showing the latest comments.

19. Added the ability to specify whether, which categories are prohibited for this user group to view. This new setting is an addition to the existing one where you list the categories allowed for viewing. If earlier, in order to prohibit, for example, just one category from big list categories, you had to select all available categories, with the exception of just one prohibited category, now you can simply select one prohibited category and list, and that’s it. The previous setting in the admin panel has also been saved, so you can choose what is more convenient for you, you can select either a list of available categories or simply specify a list of unavailable ones.

20. Added the ability to promote users from one group to another, after a certain number of days have passed from the moment of registration on the site.

To do this, a corresponding setting has been added to the group settings, where you can specify how many comments you need to have and to which group to move the user for a given number of comments. Comments undergoing moderation are not taken into account. Thus, you can provide users who have earned a certain trust with any additional rights and preferences.

23. Added the ability to promote users from one group to another when they gain a certain rating for their publications on the site. To do this, a corresponding setting has been added to the group settings, where you can specify what total rating they need to score, and which group to move the user to when they receive this rating.

24. For templates for displaying comments and personal messages (comments.tpl and pm.tpl) added support for formatted output of the number of user comments and publications. For example, when displaying the number of comments 252501, 252,501 will be displayed. This makes large numbers easier to understand.

25. For user profile display templates (userinfo.tpl and profile_popup.tpl) added support for formatted output of numerical ratings. For example, when displaying the overall user rating +252501, +252,501 will be displayed. This makes large numbers easier to understand.

29. Changes have been made to the feedback on the site, if an unregistered user writes on the site. If the user is not registered, then no check is made to check whether the login he entered matches those already registered on the site. Instead, the prefix "Unregistered User" is added to the entered name. Thus, the administration or recipient of a letter from the site will easily see that the letter was sent to him by an unregistered visitor to the site. And for the site visitor himself there will be no inconvenient obligation to come up with another name if the name he wrote is occupied by a registered user.

36. In the admin panel, in the user management section, a new option "Exact login match" has been added when searching for users by login. If this option is checked, the search will be based on an exact match of the login with the one specified in the search. This makes it easier to find the right user with a short login if a large number of users are registered on the site.

“Dark horses” come across not only among people, but also among CMS. One of these “horses” is DLE.

While there is a lot of information about other PHP engines on the Internet, you can only find a few decent materials about this CMS. Let's make this article worthy by telling readers how to install a template on DLE:

Known about unknown CMS

This engine is not as popular on the world Internet as WordPress or Joomla. It is the creation of Russian programmers. Therefore, you can most often stumble upon a site running on this CMS and template for DLE in RuNet.

CMS DLE is positioned by its creators as the basis for the deployment of information portals and blogs. The internal engine system is adapted to heavy loads and has a high degree of fault tolerance:


Like most engines, DLE (DataLife Engine) runs on php based and MySQL. The main disadvantage of this content management system is that it is paid. Despite this, DLE ranks fourth in terms of prevalence among resources located in the ru zone. Although most of them (59 thousand sites) use pirated versions engine.

A license for a basic CMS package for a period of 1 year costs RUB 2,190. Its extension for the second year (and subsequent ones) will cost 1,490 rubles. The price of the extended version is 2790 rubles.

Except paid versions there is also a free one. This version of the CMS is presented by the manufacturer as a trial version of the engine and the basis for creating your first website:


The main disadvantage of DLE is its poor security. Back in 2008, experts criticized CMS for low security its internal system when working with requests. Most likely, this problem has not been eliminated today.

According to Yandex analytical data for 2011, sites that work specifically on the basis of CMS DLE are most often infected. Latest issue The engine is currently version 10.3. It was released in September 2014.

Features of the template for DLE

Templates for DLE websites have a number of features that fundamentally distinguish this CMS from other content management systems:

  • The engine template structure is built on the basis of TPL files. This greatly simplifies the process of layout and adaptation of the template design;
  • The main structure file is main.tpl. All additional elements template ( menu, sidebar) are also specified using TPL files;
  • Style decisions are written in two files: styles for the software part are specified in engine.css, and everything else is specified in style.css:

Before you install DLE template, download its installation package and place it in the templates folder:

Then you need to go to the site’s control panel (file admin.php). After that, in the menu on the left side, select “ Script settings», « System settings»:


Below in the section " General settings»go to item « Default site template" Select from the drop-down list required template. After making changes, do not forget to click the “Save" button:


After this, the new template will be activated and the site will change its appearance. But before you put the template on DLE, do not forget to unzip it.

IN CMS DLE unlike others popular systems content management, the installation of the template does not occur from the archive.


Unfortunately, most of the templates for DLE, like the engine itself, are paid. But if you search hard, you can find a couple of decent resources on the RuNet where you can download templates for free. Here are a few of them:

  • dle-shablony.net – here for free download There are about 50 different templates. But they are all “lumped” in one general section without sorting by category. Although among them you can find very “strawberry” specimens:


  • newtemplates.ru – the site presents a large collection of paid and free templates. All of them are conveniently sorted by thematic headings. But even among the paid ones you can find samples costing $5-10 and with a circulation of only 5 copies. And this will provide the resource with a design with a fairly high degree of uniqueness!


  • 10.dle-shabloni.ru is a cool resource with a huge collection of templates for DLE websites. Tags will help you find the ones you need by topic or even color. You can see how the template works using the built-in demo version or in the video played in the Youtube video player window:


Don't forget that each template was developed under certain version CMS DLE. Their compliance must be checked before downloading the selected sample.

How to edit a DLE template

Unlike other popular content management systems, DLE has a simpler template design. Thanks to this, editing them is much faster and easier. The administrative part of the engine includes an integrated code editor.

To access this instrument need to:

  • Go to the site admin panel;
  • In the menu on the left, select “ Template management", "Site templates";
  • In the drop-down list located in the " Selected template for editing"Install the desired instance and click on the "Run" button:


  • After this, the built-in code editor window will appear below. But before you edit the template, you need to select a file to edit. The template file tree is located on the left. After clicking the cursor on the desired source, its contents will be displayed in the editor window:


As you can see from the figure, the tpl file is a regular html, the structure of which is easy to understand. But before editing this code, it is strongly recommended that you familiarize yourself with the design features of the DLE engine.

Technical documentation for CMS DLE is available for review at official website manufacturer.

Headings are displayed at the very top, in front of the list of added advertising materials, in the form of folders. Within the categories themselves, you can also create additional subcategories in an unlimited number. Thus, if you have a large number of advertising materials, you can place them for ease of navigation through them in various sections and subsections.

2. Added the ability to count the number of views for advertising materials added to the script control panel. Views are recorded only for real users who accessed the site using a browser. Bots crawling the site are not counted. View counting is enabled directly for each banner, so you can count views only for the advertising materials you need. You also have the opportunity to specify whether you want to count all banner views, or only count views from unique users.

These links do not require any special design; they can lead to any addresses you need. You also have the option to specify whether you want to count all clicks on a link, or only count clicks from unique users.

6. Added for advertising materials in the admin panel ability to clear the number of views and clicks for each advertising banner.

HTML"> 7. Added the use of canonical links in page code, for all pages of the site including navigation through sections, viewing the full news, etc. This feature allows you to increase SEO optimization of sites, and also allows you to avoid duplicate pages if incorrect links to your site are published somewhere on the Internet, or if for some reason it is necessary to disable control of incorrect CNCs.

8. In the category settings in the control panel, the ability has been added set by default for a category whether it is allowed to publish news from this category on the main page of the site. These settings are in effect at the time of adding or editing a publication, and if publication on the main page is prohibited for a category, then the corresponding option is removed at the time of adding or editing a publication.

9. In the category settings in the control panel, the ability has been added set by default for a category whether comments are allowed for posts from this category. These settings are in effect at the time of adding or editing a publication, and if comments are disabled for a category, then the corresponding option is removed at the time of adding or editing a publication.

10. In the category settings in the control panel, the ability has been added set by default for a category whether ratings are allowed for publications from this category.

12. Expanded capabilities of the "Metatags" module, this module has been renamed “Headings, Descriptions, Meta Tags”. Now in this module you can set not only meta tags for pages, but also a separate title for the page and a description of the page, which you can later display anywhere in your template. For this purpose, new global tags for templates have been added: (page-title)- displays the title you specify for the page, (page-description)- displays the description you specify for the page. It is also possible to use BB and HTML tags in the page description. Thus, using this module, you can, for example, create and display titles and descriptions for the tag cloud for each tag personally, etc.

13. Added new global template text tags, which display the text enclosed in them if a title for the page being viewed was specified in the “Titles, Descriptions, Meta Tags” module. And also added opposite tags text which display the text enclosed in them if the title for the page being viewed has not been specified. Similar tags were also added for the description: text, which display the text enclosed in them if a description for the page being viewed was specified in the “Titles, Descriptions, Meta Tags” module, text which display the text enclosed in them if a description for the page being viewed has not been specified.

14. For the category menu template (categorymenu.tpl) text, which display the text enclosed in them if the category or news being viewed on the site does not belong to the category from the menu. This tag can only be used inside tags and is used, for example, to display some information (for example links) only for inactive categories from the menu.

15. Expanded capabilities for displaying publications based on the values ​​of additional fields in publications. When contacting the address http://yoursite/xfsearch/field name/field value/ publications will be displayed, as before, containing the specified value in this particular field, if the “use as cross-references” option is set for the field. When contacting the address http://yoursite/xfsearch/field value/ publications containing given value for all additional fields. When contacting the address http://yoursite/xfsearch/field name/ All publications in which this specified field is filled in will be displayed.

16. Added the ability to assign to the script settings separate page with the name 404.html at the root of your site, to display pages for which there is no content. If this setting is enabled, instead of the standard system message“Unfortunately, this page is not available to you, its address may have changed or it has been deleted.”, you can display a separate, specially prepared page with a completely separate design. This innovation will be useful for webmasters who want to create a separate design for the 404 pages of their website.

17. Added the ability to assign an HTTP header to the script settings, from where it is necessary to obtain user IP addresses. This innovation will be useful for sites that use various external proxy servers and do not have the ability to correctly reconfigure the server for them in order to obtain the correct real IP addresses of visitors. For example, when using the cloudflare service and others to protect against DDOS attacks and using a regular hosting plan without access to server settings. Now you can, in the script settings in the admin panel, tell the script where to get the IP address of site visitors from.

18. When deleting a category in the script control panel, the ability to choose what to do with publications that are in this category has been added. You can: “Remove this category from publications”, “Replace the category with another or other categories”, and also “Delete all publications in this category”. Moreover, if a category is deleted or replaced from a publication, only the category being deleted will be removed or replaced. For example, your publication is in the categories “In the world”, “News”, “Popular”, and you, for example, delete the category “In the world”, then for publications located in this category only the category “In the world” will be deleted or replaced, all other categories in the list of these publications will remain in place.

19. A new type of additional field has been added for publications: “Pure HTML and JS”. When using this field, DataLife Engine will not interfere with the text written in it and will not filter the HTML code of this text, and also allows pure javascript code to be written in it. This field will be useful when you need to insert some code into the news that does not require a security check, for example, your own player, etc. Attention, given that the script will not filter the text from this field, when creating it, be sure to set restrictions on which groups are allowed to use it. Do not allow its use by ordinary users whom you do not trust, otherwise it may pose a security risk to your site.

20. For additional fields of publications that have the option "Use as cross-references", added the ability to specify the separator for link data. You can specify either individual characters or HTML code as a delimiter. Previously, a comma was used as a list separator; now you can set your own personal separator for each field, which allows you to create your own unique output design for each field in the template.

21. Added support for Yandex Turbo technology for regular RSS channels, without using the inclusion in the settings of the RSS stream type as "Yandex news", for this, support has been added for displaying the full news tag (full-story) for any type of RSS stream. A also updated standard template/templates/rss.xml, which demonstrates what a template with full Yandex Turbo support should look like. Similarly, the ability to customize an RSS template for Yandex Zen technology is fully supported.

22. Added the ability to reply to comments when viewing all the latest comments on the site, if support for tree comments is enabled in the script settings. Thus, you can, for example, quickly respond to comments received on the site without going into each news item, due to the fact that some heavy scripts have been transferred to delayed loading and independent of page rendering. These scripts are loaded into the browser in parallel with page rendering and are launched only after the page is completed in the browser. Which visually ensures faster page display.

24. Added an option for users who are not registered on the site, send complaints to the site administration about news and comments, just as such an opportunity existed previously only for registered users.

25. Added use of schema.org micro markup to display a rating with the "Evaluation" type. The use of this micro-markup allows for full news, when displayed in search results on Google, to also display the publication rating.

26. Added automatic detection orientation photos when uploading them to the server, based on the metainformation contained in the graphic files. If the original photo was upside down, then when it is uploaded to the server, the script will also automatically rotate it to the desired position. This eliminates the need to additionally edit pictures on a computer if the camera was rotated when taking photographs.

27. Added automatic notification feature site administration about admission new news from users under moderation (if this is enabled in the script settings), if the news was added from the script control panel. Previously, a notification was sent only if a post was added directly from the site.

28. If the user edits a publication in the control panel, which was previously published on the site, but according to the settings of his group, he is prohibited from publishing without moderation, or is not allowed to publish in all categories, then the site administration will also be sent a corresponding email notification that this news is awaiting moderation.

29. Changes have been made to the operation of the module bread crumbs(Breadcrumbs) on the website. If news from a certain category is viewed, then for the category in which the user is directly located, this category will be displayed in the form of plain text and not a link. Only categories higher in the hierarchy will be displayed as a link, or a link to this category will appear if, for example, the user has gone further in navigating pages in this category. Thus, this innovation allows you to avoid cyclic links of pages to themselves.

30. For the "Cross-references" module in the control panel, added two new replacement areas for links. You can optionally specify a replacement only in static pages, and you can also select a replacement in static pages, news and comments.

31. For the "Search and Replace" module in the control panel, the ability to mass replace text in surveys for publications and in voting on the site has been added.

32. Added the ability to delete all publications, awaiting moderation from a specific user. To do this, in the user management section, click on the number of his publications and select the appropriate menu item.

33. Added the ability to delete all comments, awaiting moderation from a specific user. To do this, in the user management section, click on the number of his comments and select the appropriate menu item.

34. Added formatted script to the admin panel displaying the number of different counters (views, publications, comments). The output of these counters is carried out in formatted form, separated by a space of hundreds, thousands, millions, etc. Which gives a more visual representation and perception of these numbers.

35. For templates for displaying comments and adding comments (addcomments.tpl and comments.tpl) added support for new tags text- displays text in the tag if the news belongs to specified categories, as well as tags: text- displays text in the tag if the news does not belong to the specified categories. This way you can set different design displaying comments and adding comments for publications from different categories.

36. Added support for word declensions for the tag displaying the number of votes that were given for the rating of publications. For example, you can use (vote-num) review||a|s. Previously, this was not available for this tag, because... it contains HTML code, not just a number.

37. If the script settings enable the use of the site only via the HTTPS protocol, then cookies will also be sent to the server by the browser only via the HTTPS protocol and will be automatically blocked if the regular HTTP protocol is used.

38. Added control of incorrect CNC for static pages, the publication text of which is divided into several pages. If specified incorrect number page, an automatic 301 redirect will be made to the starting address of this page.

39. For RSS import of publications, support for importing pictures from the enclosure tag has been added containing an image for publication. If short description in the RSS stream is just text, and the picture is given in it as a separate tag, then when importing the short news, the picture for this publication will also be added to the very beginning.

40. Added support for redirects to receive full news when using RSS import of publications. If the link from the RSS feed is a redirect for further transition to the full text of the news on the source site, then DataLife Engine will automatically follow this redirect and take content from the final source. Thus, receiving complete news will be of higher quality than before.

41. Changes have been made to the operation of tags and. In case for specific publication It is prohibited to use and add comments, then these tags will also hide the content in them.

42. If comments are allowed for publication, but at the same time, according to other settings, the user or group of users was prohibited from publishing comments, then a message about this will not be displayed at the end of all comments, but in the place where in your template you define the display of the form for adding a comment with the tag (addcomments), thereby you can determine the location yourself of this message on your website.

43. For authorization using the Odnoklassniki social network, added feature automatic receipt The user's e-mail, provided that the application itself has received the appropriate rights from Odnoklassniki. Attention, by default Odnoklassniki does not provide rights to receive E-mail, and to obtain appropriate access you must additionally contact social media. network to allow receiving e-mail. If permission is received, DLE will also automatically import the e-mail address.
