and this for all before 06/17/2006
http://www.phpwcms.org/release/20060717 ... _patch.zip


The 1.2.7 is nearly final but I will check some points and add templates and some other stuff which makes it more usable.


And these are the main changes in this release (I can remember at the moment):

• security fixes, the whole backend and frontend were checked
• fixed search
• some template additions (detailed documentation will follow)
• new way of handling feeds - rss.php is obsolete, use feeds.php; check feeds.ini.php in config/phpwcms; there you have the chance to define several different feeds. Support for RSS0.9, RSS1.0, RSS2.0, ATOM 0.3 and ATOM1.0
• changed feed reader should handle feeds much better (RSS and ATOM)
• new options for structure level editing - you can define the maximum of entries listed in article list mode
• when you create a new structure level the template setting of parental structure level is taken
• much better handling of visible and hidden setting for menu builder in the frontend, no template setting neccessary anymore
• make a selection of content parts for each structure level, content parts can also be sorted and grouped
• additional preview buttons for article editing too
• each user can choose favourite WYSIWYG editor - there is a new setting (select box) under profile
• old caching is diasabled - much faster editing for larger sites
• content part poll (thanks to Jens) integrated (and patched a bit)
• captcha for guestbook and form generator
• form generator can now handle custom templates including handling of validation/error
• new setting in conf.inc.php -> $phpwcms["allow_cntPHP_rt"] default is set to false, enable/disbale rendering of PHP replacement tags in main content area
• JavaScript alert when changing a content part while in editing mode
• new script switchFontSize.php in "phpwcms_template/inc_script/frontend_render including these new replacement tags [FontSize+], [FontSize=], [FontSize-] - including additional CSS files, check and you will understand - can be used to change CSS for larger or smaller fontsizes (or whatever)
• Tiny MCE removed - it is very buggy

Have fun while testing.
