Announcing CMS Made Simple 1.5.2

January 17th, 2009 by Robert Campbell

CMS Made Simple is now available for download. This is just a bugfix release, with little in the way of enhancements…. but a large number of bugs have been fixed…. Some of them were in the forge… some of them we found on our own or were reported by valued members.

The only real new feature in 1.5.2 is the {page_image} plugin which makes it simple to use the image and thumbnail content attributes.

Many thanks to the development team for their hundreds of hours of testing and debugging, without them, this package would be nowhere near as stable and feature rich as it is.

Diff packages are available for convenience in upgrading from 1.5.1 to 1.5.2

    Thanks for the great work on this – any critical security fixes making this a mandatory upgrade?

    The one big pain with updating the core CMS is that every time the Search module gets reset and if one has done any different formatting to has to be re-inputted manually again. Is there anyway round this or perhaps you should think of storing that info in the database. Otherwise keep up the great work as always.

    The diff from 1.5.1 to 1.5.2 has an empty install directory, can’t really upgrade? or am I just supposed to overwrite stuff without running any scripts?

    I’m having a few challenges with our site. It is not responding as it used to e.g. when u insert text into some pages you get an error message and the text does not show up on the page.
    Please advise.

    Hey Flo
    A bit late I know but in case you’re still wondering, there’s a change log in the download file, under the “doc” directory. Here it is:

    Version 1.5.2 – Caguas
    —————————–
    - Fixes of several bugs:
    – #2406 Re-order pages causes hierarchy to be incorrect (longstanding), which could be caused by:
    a) two users simultaneously re-ordering pages or,
    b) moving a second page while ajax hasn’t finished moving the first.
    – #2476 cyclic internal linking is possible and causes listcontent to time-out
    – #2709 Install and uninstall post messages not shown.
    – #2717 Text inputs too short in page-copy-mode.
    – #2739 Permission Denied user type Editor or Designer.
    – #2744 Edit prefs missing div layout bug.
    – #2789 message usertagdeleted not shown because of wrong url.
    – #2791 News Module Pagination translation label.
    – #2804 Re-ordering in Events.
    – #2805 Deleting of an UDT attached to an Event.
    – #2808 Page found by search, with “page is searchable” flag unchecked.
    – #2872 Login page showing, after deleting a template which is still in use.
    – Setting output_compression to false in config.php still sent compressed data.
    – Many fixes in html – Validations in admin side.

    - Feature requests that are included:
    – #2045 Allow search to find expired news articles.
    – #2649 Notifications when deleting Stylesheets in use by templates.
    – Showall parameter added to News, to show all news-entries, regardless of end-date.

    - Tiny
    – #2815 CMSLink don’t have ‘$config['page_extension']‘ suffix.

    - Module-API
    – Added HasCapability and GetModulesWithCapability for a more general way of checking what a module can do.

    To the developers – love your work! I’m amazed that even with a small team you’ve produced a CMS that I find so much more useful than all the big name projects. Thanks so much!

    In a few days I’ll be finishing my last uni assignment, and I can’t wait to sink my teeth into some of the new code, maybe even contribute if I’ve got anything useful :)

    The admin side is running really slow after the install.
    Even though I have eaccelerator installed. Is anybody running into the same issue ? Any recommendations ?
