Release v0.1.3 introduces tracking thread view counts, the ability to override the favicon, and some minor bug fixes.

Thread View Count:

View count is now tracked on the thread model.  Views are unique to the request session, so that refreshing the page over and over won't artificially raise the count.  The view count is displayed on the threads table in the subcategory view.

Overriding Favicon:

It is now possible to override the favicon for the forum by overriding the FAVICON in your project's settings module.

PUNKWEB_BB = {
  "FAVICON": "punkweb_bb/favicon.ico", # static files only, no absolute paths
}

Other Fixes and Improvements:
  • Show user join date instead of profile created date on threads and posts
  • Order users by username on the members list page
  • Adjust profile view styles on mobile
  • Restrict post creation on closed threads at the model level rather than the view level
  • Full test cases added for views to minimize chance of regressions
