Icy Phoenix

Hi all,
here is the second beta release of Icy Phoenix.

Click here to have some general info about Icy Phoenix.
Click here for some extra info about the beta testing phase.

Since latest beta many bugs have been fixed thanks to your contribution. Unfortunately, due to lack of time I didn't keep track of all the changes, because when I have free time I prefer to code instead of writing docs which are not so important after all.

This package includes also some new features and some improvements on the CMS system which will be the core of Icy Phoenix.

Some new implementations...

• BBCodes and smileys boxes reorganized for easy and better integration among all the site (now all editing windows should have the same layout).
  
• Some CMS blocks have been improved and now most of the blocks work fine even if included multiple times.
  
• CMS section improved to facilitate user access and understanding on how the CMS works.
  
• Some mods and functions updated for security reasons and code optimizations.
  
• Page Header rewritten from scratch and code optimized: now page loading should be faster.
  
• Some extra switches added in ACP.

What needs to be completed is:

• CMS permission level
  
• Dynamic menu (possibility to create menu and menu items in the CMS section)
  
• Ice Template

As usual... Even if this package is quite stable I would suggest you to install it on live environments only if you are quite good PHP and phpBB. During the beta testing period only a limited support (focused exclusively on fixing bugs) will be given on Icy Phoenix. If you are trying to upgrade your existing sites to this release you should consider that the final release may not contain upgrading instructions from this beta. Remember also that the old upgrading instructions won't work fine because the structure of the package has been changed... You have been warned... :wink:

Thank you for your cooperation and a big thank you to the whole Staff.

EDIT 2007/03/08 00.45 CET

Added some small modifications and fixes:

• Fixed album auth
  
• Fixed KB images in ACP

• Other small fixes

è stato modificato qualcosa nel db o no? cioè io ho la 1.5.5, con tutte le tabelle a posto

se io (dopo aver salavato il forum ed il db) trasferissi in blocco tramite filezilla la 1.9.9 (insomma l'ultima fatta oggi) al posto della 1.5.5, succederebbe qualcosa al forum oppure no? o le tabelle coinciderebbero e non devo fare altre cose? oltre ad un trasferimento di cartelle... grazie

It is not the first time, and I'm not the only one who warned you.

Next time you post in Italian you'll get a yellow card.

WOW! ;) Nice work and good surprise Luca... I'm waiting for italian language for online testing. In the meanwhile I will test it in local! ;)

If you are not going to offer support to the update from 1.0.5.5 to 1.0.9.9… Could you recover the 10.5.5 download for which we have updated our site to Icy Phoenix? :cry:
