Yet Another Content Generator

Since we are lazy greedy bastards, the content generation part of [YACG] has been neglected for quite some time, but not anymore. [YACG] 3.5 brings a big overhaul to the hooks, in fact no file in the hooks folder was left untouched. We’ve fixed and made better all the old hooks and brought in some new.

Here is an overview of all the changes we’ve made:

• New clickbank hook
• Simplepie RSS parsing library is now included by default(and powers some of the hooks)
• fetch function now supports post requests and redirects(if your host supports them)
• New add_keyword function, which you can use in any of your hooks(i hope you’ve guessed what it does)
• Fixed Peakclick and UMAX hooks
• Sitemap is now paginated
• Improved the bookmarking hook(easier to use and much prettier now)
• New video hook. Supports vimeo, flickr, bliptv, viddler and youtube
• ‘renamethisfolder’ is ‘rootfolder’ now(name was kinda inconvenient to refer to)
• Url structure now is more wordpress-like
• New wordpress-like archives(by month)
• Now almost every hook has $bare option(if set to true hook will return it’s content as an array, so you can blend it in your template however you want)
• New Photobucket hook
• New blogsearch hook
• Fixed bug with sitemap redirecting to sitemap.xml on GoDaddy(and some other hosts)

As a side note – [YACG] does some pretty heavy scraping to generate it’s content(as, for example, new uber-cool blogsearch hook), so don’t forget to turn on Caching or at least use cache hook to make your sites faster.
