Announcing CMS Made Simple 1.1.1
August 26th, 2007 by Robert CampbellIt’s been a while since 1.1 came out, and we have taken the time to fix as many of the issues that came up as we could. This release should solve many of the problems people encountered with the 1.1 release, namely:
- The News module permission
- News module pagination issues
- Various issues with TinyMCE
- Some over zealous input parameter cleaning
- Fixes to the umask test and global umask settings
- Fixes for postgres installs
- Rationalization to the order of the submit/apply/cancel buttons
- Lots of other little stuff.
The files are available from the download page, along with diff releases to allow you to upgrade your 1.1 site easily.

Nice
Diff update done. Wasn’t a very big deal, done in a few minutes on a site I manage.
Not any obvious changes experienced yet, but it runs stable as it seems, even with some modifications in various modules and the admin area.
I wonder… are there any security related updates done? Because it’s not mentioned in the changelog explicitly. Or are security related issues always mentioned?
Can’t wait for the next release

Yes, updates are always mentioned.
However, I’m curious how can be news module pagination issues solved as there is no module folder in the diff package. Maybe mistakenly omitted…?

Sweet! Lots of other little stuff too huh? Cant wait to see!

Just to confirm: neither the .zip nor the .gz diff package contain a “modules” folder.
Cheers,
Alex

Have upgraded from 1.1 to 1.1.1 by downloading the full release file (not diff) and then FTP’ing over existing site.
Then did chmod on config.php and ran upgrade/install.php and this all worked fine.
BUT… No news.
The old news has disappeared (only two news items were actually present anyway as this is a fairly new site)
and also if I now add new news stories then it seems to work BUT they never appear either on the site or in the
Admin Content ->News ->Article list.
News Module is 2.3.0.2. Logging in using Admin (all permissions checked). Looking at cms_module_news (and the categories and the seq tables), I see my 4 news items as I added them.
Do I post this as a bug or is there something else I should be doing ?.

Re: 1.1 -> 1.1.1 upgrade. The SQL syntax changes for Postgres have upset my older MySQL installation. Easy to patch around. See my forum entry on this.

Judging by what I see above, I guess I’ll wait till 1.1.2 comes out. I’ve been burned once with 1.1
