3.0-Beta.1
Pre-release
After 2 years of developement we are proud to announce the release of our 3.0-beta.1. We want to start the Beta-Test now and hope you can help us to find the last bugs and review all of the changes we made to the software.
Some of the major enhancements:
Bootstrap integration
This is the main enhancement in this release. We have fully integrated the Bootstrap framework. Therefore all Html and CSS have been rewritten.
- easier customizing of your individual theme
- mobile layout for better integration on smartphones and pads
- modern flexible html and css layout
New Message module
Admidio contains a new module which could be used to send emails, private messages or use a simple chat module.
- emails could be send to multiple users or roles
- private messages could be send to other registered users
- a simple chat module is integrated
- emails and private messages will be saved in database
Advanced update and installation script
We have improved the installation and update prozess to make it easier and less error-prone for users to install or update Admidio.
- no separate installation folder adm_install that must be removed after installation/update. You can just update your installation and work with it.
- Configuration file will be created and saved automatically through installation prozess
- Update could be continued if it there was an error and the error could be solved.
More flexible lists and tables
We have integrated a new plugin for tables. With this plugin there are now several new features for every table / list in Admidio.
- Full text search in every table
- Sort the table after values of one or more columns ascending or descending
- Select number of records you want to see with a flexible page navigation
By the way we have new requirements for the server software. Admidio 3.0 needs the following software versions (or higher)
PHP 5.3.7 (before 5.2.0)
MySQL 5.0.3 (before 4.1.1)
Flash not required anymore ☺
A detailed list of all changes can be found here.
If you have a local test version of your installation then you can support us if you download the new version and try an update so we can check if all works fine with your configuration.
