Thanks for the hard work guys!
I have one question: what happened with the dateformat and formatpostdate functions?
And how can I get the dates back at the top of my news messages?

Thank you for making two versions of the download. I really appreciate the light version with only english.

I’m a big CMSMS fan and very appreciative of the time and resources put in by the development team. Love the direction 1.4 was going but I’m vexed with a few new developments of 1.5.1 as noted below.

>RSS is gone from news? I’m hoping this will be recognized in later versions as a bad idea . . . RSS use is going nowhere but up in the future. It’s good that there is a stack of two modules to create RSS feeds but they are of no use to me since it feeds can only be created from the summary fields which I always thought were superfluous to begin with. Relying on 2 modules for such basic functionality is disconcerting since modules have traditionally been the weak point of CMSMS.
>Image and Thumbnail fields in page edit. Why muck up CMSMS’ beautiful clean page edit with these? I really don’t get the necessity of the fields in general and especially in page edit view . . . at best they’re confusing for most users.
>Contact Form tag gone. Almost all sites have a contact form which is the reason I assume it has been included in all prior versions. Granted this is a relatively minor annoyance in the big scope of CMSMS’ virtues, but it is another example of having to install yet another module for a basic function which adds time and complexity to bring a site to basic functionality.

My feedback is offered with respect and appreciate to CMSMS . . . thanks again to all who have made it such a great cms.

Still doesn’t work. Even after clearing cache when calling
http://localhost/cms/stylesheet.php?cssid=48&mediatype=screen
All I get is
/* Start of CMSMS style sheet ” */

/* End of ” */

Thanks again for all the hard and good work, but… still installation problems.

Error message:
Test for remote URL
Outgoing http connections do not appear to work! There is a firewall or some ACL for external connections?. This will result in module manager, and potentially other functionality failing.

I contacted my provider again and got the same answer as before: they do not want to change settings for security reasons.

Can I switch off this test or leave out this function before installing?

Yippee – Module Manager on existing sites is working again too. Regarding the release of 1.5.1 – I don’t think you’ll find anyone complaining too much – I for one really appreciate all the hard work you guys put in to this. But you know you are fast running out of major release versions before reaching 2.0!!

Argh, I knew that would happen – and just when I finished updating an old 1.01 site to 1.5 mere minutes before this post

Ah well it was an easy update at least. Thanks for all the great work guys
