Now you can upload new image or files, without leaving the article editing page. The trick is by using iframe for uploading, as shown in this blog article.

Major enhancements added for article editing.

• Allow user to upload images/files for composing new articles.
• integrated Tinymce, a rich text editor, while still maintain the ability to edit content in plain html.
• Preview new article/discussion is done in ajax call, instead of a new page load.
• Added navigation bar to profile page, and made nav bar more prominent.

Subdomained URL

Before each group name is something like
http://groups.wuyasea.com/group/xyz
now group name is subdomain based:
http://xyz.groups.wuyasea.com

Pretty URL

Before, article's url is something like
/blog/5/articles/11
To make the URL more user friendly, new URL added title:
/articles/added-tagging-support/11

Now combining both changes, typical full article URL example is like
http://making.groups.wuyasea.com/articles/added-tagging-support/11

Language

Started to offer language support, first with Chinese. However, translation so far only is for static pages, dynamic errors are not translated yet, but coming.

HTML editing

Now html editting supports hightlighted text. So for example, if you want to link "http://groups.wuyasea.com", you can just highlight that, and click the link button, the url is automatically inserted into href attribute.

Goodwill links

If you like to support your or your friends' website, you can insert the links in the goodwill widget, on the right side of your profile.

de-ajaxing

In group and user profile page, most of the widgets was getting the the content remotely by using ajax, it's convenient and keeps code clean, but the problem is search engine (SE) don't see the remotely loaded content, it only see a bunch of empty boxes. So to make SE friendly, I have to do do it in traditional way, so the site can get higher ranking.

Made Be_taggable plugin, and integrated into Groups app, so finally we all can tag our articles.
