New Release CakePHP Geotargeting Helper
Do you need to find out geological information out about users that use your web app? Look no further! This helper utilizes IPInfoDB's geolocation tools to find out geographical information about your users from their IP address.
Migrate Your Wordpress Blog To Croogo
I just saw this on Twitter while doing a search for Croogo related news. It looks like Matt Curry has released a plugin that will migrate your Wordpress blog over to Croogo. I would give this a shot but I'm currently not running any Wordpress sites. This is great news for any CakePHP developer running a Wordpress blog looking to switch over to the CakePHP based Croogo.
Right now it looks like it migrates most data, but I would test it on a development server before you migrate your production blog.
Croogo 1.2 Released
Fahad, the lead developer followed through with his promise of delivering Croogo 1.2 before the end of the month. The new release packs a handful of new features that extend Croogo's functionality. A few of my favourites include the new hook and plugin system and custom helpers for themes.
I plan on upgrading this weekend to 1.2 and I'm excited to see what the future holds for the next release.
