Announcing CMSMS 2.0.1 - Adelaide

Posted October 3, 2015 by mr101010
Category: General, Releases

We knew that shortly after releasing 2.0, regardless of how many months we were in beta, we would be creating bug-fix releases. This is because the number of users who actually use the system increase when you remove the 'beta' or 'release candidate' suffixes. Therefore, more issues are reported that need to be fixed. CMSMS 2.0.1 - Adelaide is the first of those bug fix releases.

Where Are The Templates?

Often I find topics on the forum where people inquire about finding professional templates specifically made for CMS Made Simple. Almost as often there are also critical voices, usually amongst the replies to those topics, saying that CMSMS needs more templates, both freely and commercially available. In my point of view CMSMS has the largest repository of templates in the internet.

As I sit writing this article, I’m thinking about the jobs that I have on at the moment. There are quite a few. I can honestly say that around 50% of them would not be mine (or at least not in the way they are being done) without previous GeekMoots. In those previous GeekMoots I have found customers, forged and solidified relationships with suppliers, plus I have learned a great deal about CMSMS on the way. Oh, and I joined the Dev team!

Geekmoot is a fun weekend attended by serious people. For most attendees it will at least mean travelling over one border. For many it will mean a long journey through sea and air to get to Ghent. People don’t come to GeekMoot on a whim. People come to get something serious out of it.

• - An entire re-think as to how templates and stylesheets are managed (DesignManager)
• - A new module for building navigations (Navigator)
