v1.8.3 released and upcoming rounded corners!

v1.8.3 has been released. It includes bug fixes and better navigation control when browsing records.

More importantly, however, is the upcoming rounded corners in v1.8.4. Using the new border-radius CSS property, every boring rectangle in the UI will be transformed into a sleek rounded rectangle.

Staring at smooth, rounded corners is much more soothing than staring at sharp, jagged corners. This may not seem like a big deal, but you will change your mind once you begin managing your SQLite databases and notice that your mood and overall happiness have improved - all due to the pleasing effects of rounded corners.

Take a look at this magnificent feat on the demo.

phpLiteAdmin v1.8.2 released

It was only a few days ago that v1.8.1 was released, but v1.8.2 is ready for download.

No security fixes are included in this update, so it is completely optional (though, as always, recommended).

Two bugs were fixed in this version:
  • There was an issue with tables that had long columns, causing the data to be cut off, this is now fixed as a scroll bar will appear under such circumstances (fixing issue #5).
  • Logging in did not work in Internet Explorer unless the user explicitly hit the "Log in" button, otherwise when using the Enter button, the log in request would not be processed. This was fixed by adding a hidden field (fixing issue #7).

There is a minor feature addition in v1.8.2, which allows you to change the name of the cookie which contains the user password, which can be changed by modifying the $cookie_name variable near the top of phpliteadmin.php.

Thank you for all those that reported these issues to the development team, we appreciate it, and so does everyone who uses phpLiteAdmin.

If you encounter any issues with phpLiteAdmin, please feel free to create a new issue in the issue tracker.

phpLiteAdmin v1.8.1 released, please update immediately

A security issue was exposed today when investigating an issue with changing the default password (from "admin") for phpLiteAdmin, which has now been fixed in v1.8.1. It is highly recommended you update your phpliteadmin.php file immediately as all previous versions are vulnerable. A minor bug was also fixed in this version causing a warning about an undefined index.

We apologize for the inconvience this may have caused.

Index Management

In the next version (v1.8), it will be possible to manage indexes. Just as it is done in phpMyAdmin, the "Structure" tab on the table view will show all of that table's indexes and the ability to delete them and create new ones. This feature has already been implemented and can be tested in the demo.
