Announcing CMS Made Simple 1.6.1 - Canala
Posted: Thu Jul 23, 2009 4:44 pm
The latest and greatest release of your favorite content management system... CMSMS version 1.6.1 "Canala" is ready to roll. This is a bugfix only release.
Again, the members of the development team have donated many hours to testing, fixing, and re-testing the package, to make sure that what we fix, is infact fixed, and everybody should give a big thanks to them.
We've fixed the known outstanding php4 issues (thank god we won't have to worry about php4 when 1.7 comes out), and a few issues with permissions, and email addresses, etc.
Important: we have fixed a longstanding problem with having multiple module calls within the default. content area. The fix to this was essentially to dramatically change the 'module id' mechanism from a simple count, to a unique hash for each module call. Therefore any of you that are doing styling, or funky smarty tricks relying on specific module id's like m6_ or m7_ will have upgrade problems. There was no way around it.
Hopefully this will be the last release in the 1.6 series, and we can move forward with development on CMSMS 1.7, which will be a php5 only release.
Note: Just to remind everybody out there... as of this release, we can only support CMSMS 1.6, and 1.6.1... therefore please refrain from asking questions or reporting bugs until you've successfully upgraded.
Here's a more detailed list of what's changed:
- Fixes of several bugs:
- #3138 A bug of counting modules in page
---
Note: This bugfix WILL break any sites that use incorrectly hacked templates with
hardcoded module id's like m6 and m7, etc.
---
- #3582 (CMS 1.6) Fatal Error in contentoperations.inc.php
- #3589 Missing "Forgot Password?" on default template
- #3591 Default group "Editor" has no permission to edit a page
- #3601 Creating new user fails, doesn't accept "-" in email address
- #3606 Cannot remove additional editors from page
- #3608 Edit icon of pages is shown even if no permissions to edit that page
- #3612 {content} passes params to Module -> results in errormessage
- #3626 Fixes issue with php 4.x in multicontent
- #3636 Global Settings -> Advanced Setup -> Basic Properties
- #3768 Email validation when add user
- #3680 Big problem with group permissions
- Fixes issue with php 5.0.5 in content operations
- More minor bug fixes.
- Fixes to default content on new installs
