New Ode release is available (1.2.2)

Ode 1.2.2 is available to download now from ode-is-simple.com/home/.

What's changed?

This release is nothing but a bug fix correcting a silly mistake introduced in version 1.2.1. Except that 1.2.2 works properly, it is identical to version 1.2.1 that preceded it.

Fixed a problem introduced in version 1.2.1 that resulted in the the first post on any page returned being repeated in the place of every subsequent post.

So, for example, given a request like:

http://sample.net/cgi-bin/ode.cgi?first_post=3&num_posts=23

The 3rd post (in post sorted order) would be repeated 20 times on the resulting page, and none of the other 19 posts would appear at all.

Though it might seem that this is the result of failing to increment a counter or something similar, the actual cause was a shuffling of variable names related to the relative paths in themes introduced with version 1.2.1.
