The funeral service for Nick Jones was held today and our founder have been laid to his final resting place. Since PHPFusion was somewhat of a lovechild of his, we wish to inform our users that we will continue to develop and support PHPFusion for as long as we possibly can. And we'll develop it in his spirit, to keep it simple, lightweight, yet very customizable for our users. It may seem as an impossible task, but we will build on the solid foundation that he was the founder and major contributor of, all of the recent license changes has been approved of by Nick and he was really keen on getting things moving ahead when he so sadly and suddenly left us. Procedures may take us a while to get going, but we'll get there and we hope for your active participation and also your patience. Progress sometimes is painstakingly slow, we have merged our sites into one big site in order to better serve our community, we've arranged for a multiple license deal, all of which Nick embraced and looked forward to. After consulting with his family, it is perfectly clear that it was his wish, and also that of his family, that we all continue with our community and software development. So be it... Philip will continue as our Project Manager, Hans will be our Development Team leader, I'll try to sort out all of the license applications that have piled up as soon as I possibly can and those of you who wish to take part of development and/or support, please contact Philip, Homdax or Starefossen, (Hans). We're also looking into different solutions with dedicated support, support tickets system etc, in short, we'll do everything within our power to carry on with the development of this fine piece of software according to the standards set by Nick Jones.

The latest update to PHPFusion v7.01 is now available for download. A lot of bugs and stability issues have been fixed.

The latest update to PHPFusion v7.01 is now available for download. Download v7.01.02 Upgrade package Download v7.01.02 Complete package Thanks to the various members at the PHPFusion Development Site for helping with spotting bugs, and providing fixes and testing this version! IMPORTANT: You have to upgrade your language files before uploading and installing this upgrade. Please check with your locale support site for updated locale files. A complete list of changes in the locale is available from here. This update fixes many small bugs and errors in the system and hard-coded locales which has now been localised for better usability. We have also introduced a new server offset setting to correct the time on your site for both registered users and guests which we think people will find useful. Be sure to check it out from Administration -> Settings -> Time and Date.

PHPFusion decided quite a while ago to check out the interest for commercial licenses for our software, core and Addons, and after a long journey, Management Team have decided to launch our multilicense plan on October 18th. We hope it will please those who wish to develop websites based on PHPFusion for commercial purposes, as well as giving Addon Developers, meaning Themes, Infusions etc, a healthy, gentle and competitive push, so that we will have more of unique, innovative and totally far out Addons for the future. At best multiple license options will give back to our Open Source Community what we currently lack, some vigour, energy and sparkling creativity. AGPL will still be our main license of choice, we'll always develop Open Source firsthand, but multiple licenses gives the individual Developer out there something to base commercial solutions on. Further information is being drawn up and planned, there's some logistics involved as well, our deadline for release of these licenses is, as stated above, Monday October 18th. Please check back next Monday for more information! And, since this is a somewhat complicated matter, if need be, have patience if you find any snags or nuicances regarding this matter, most likely there will be the odd question which we haven't yet covered or documented, so bear with us. And, have fun coding! Edit: Suggestion and licenses on display for crew, I'll give them a couple of hours to read up on this and if no major flaws are detected, y'all get to read them very soon. I'm sorry for the delay, then again, it was a short one! Edit 2: You can get a preview of the licenses here. The license application system is currently under construction. So, it may be unavailable from time to time. This is a test site only, do not apply! (Philip)

Besides a few minor problems and false starts, the recent release of v7.01 was a welcome and much needed upgrade and it's that momentum that we want to keep going. We're now at v7.01.01 and work is ongoing. As you can see from the news item below the Dev site is now open to the public and you can participate in v7.02, codename; "The Essential" where the features submission is now open for business. The management structure has also undergone some changes. Following on from the recent Management Team meeting, it has been decided to create the post of Project Manager whose job will be to oversee the project as a whole and to keep it on track. Admittedly, we fell seriously behind in development over the last year or so and we're now hoping to get things moving again. Update The staging site for the testing and configuration of the new merge site is now up and running and can be viewed here.

To coincide with the release of v7.01.00 , we would also like to announce that from today we will no longer be supporting v6. It was a great version in it's time, used and loved by many many people. But, it's now time to move on and look to the future. The v6 forums will be left open for an as yet to be decided period of time for reference only and are closed to new posts. If you require assistance in upgrading your site to the latest version, post your request here.

Battle cruiser operational! Oh... The final release of PHPFusion v7.01 is now available. It's already been installed on our main site and no errors occurred so far, although we gave it quite some stress. It's been a long effort due to many changes we decided to integrate based on user and staff suggestions, code and query optimizations and other fine tuning. The first thing you'll see is the changed Admin panel. All settings have been centralized in a new admin page, where you can fine tune your core. Just so you know, the maintenance mode is now placed in the Admin Panel -> Settings -> Security. This information will help you to put your site back online after your upgrade from v7.00.x. As announced, PHPFusion v6 is no longer supported, which means we are not providing an upgrade script from our latest v6 release to v7.01. Unless you completely fell in love with v6, it's about time to kiss it goodbye and move to v7.00.07, then v7.01. We assure you it will be worth the trouble. Just stop by and tell us about your experience with the upgrade. The readme file is in the package and make sure you read it and strictly follow all the instructions step by step, as mentioned. Do it exactly as we tell you to and you will have a new ans shiny PHPFusion v7.01 online. That's it. You can grab the new core from SourceForge.net: > PHPFusion v7.01 [2.7 MB] The package has been updated as of August 2nd, 06:27 GMT. No database changes, just file changes. For details, click 'Read More'. This is the final package update. Any other issues will be fixed in what will be v7.01.01. Note: due to locales being present in v7.01 that were not in v7.00, you need to upload the locale folder in addition to the upgrade.php script before you upgrade. After you have completed the upgrade, you can upload all other files.

I would like to announce the immediate availability of PHPFusion v7.01 RC5. This is a release candidate and is not fit for production use. You can use this release to test the upcoming v7.01 release. If you find any bugs, please report them in the appropriate forum. Thank you in advance for your help with testing! Download PHPFusion v7.01 RC5 (2.7M As you may notice, we have skipped RC4. Shortly after RC4 was tagged and packaged, we noticed a major bug which rendered it quite useless. We then decided not to release it to the public as a package. You may of course, if you're interested, still pull it from Subversion (tags/7.01-rc4).

Hello all! First of all, let me apologise for the delay in the release of v7.01. Due to unforeseen circumstances in the number of developers and the absence of the active ones, the development of v7.01 got delayed. Fortunately, we have great news for you! On August 1st, 2010, PHPFusion v7.01 is going to be released! We are nearly finished with testing, so expect a solid release on August 1st. With the release of v7.01, however, we are dropping support for PHPFusion v6. PHPFusion v6 is currently quite old and we see no reason so continue to support it. From v7.01 on, we will support each major release for one full cycle. This means that v7.00 will be supported until the release of v8.00, v7.01 will be support until the release of v8.01, and so on. After the release of v7.01, we will be looking ahead to v7.02 and v8.00. You can expect more news about that in the future. For now, I hope you all look forward to v7.01 and would like to see you here on August 1st, to download it! Note: for those who don't know yet, I was formerly known as mistermartin75. I lead the development of PHPFusion together with Starefossen.

After a tough week of intensive testing and bug-fixing the upcoming PHPFusion 7.01 version we are now ready with the next (and hopefully last) Release Candidate version. All bugs and errors should now be fixed but we are still looking for more to be absolutely certain that the final version is as good and flawless as possible. Important: The new Release Candidate version requires a database upgrade which is located in db_updates/db_update 10-06-09.txt. This should be copied into a Custom Page and be previewed, not saved in order to upgrade your database correctly. Please remember that Release Candidate versions are for developers and experienced users who want to help testing the new version. Use it at your own risk. We want everyone who is testing the RC3 version to focus on testing the setup and upgrade from PHPFusion v7.00.xx and PHPFusion v6.01.xx to make sure the upgrade scripts are working correctly. Download PHPFusion v7.01 RC3 - [2.7 MB] - Post any bugs or suspected errors in this thread. Read more for changes from RC2 here.

Hello, everyone! After a lot of work, testing and bug fixing, we present you PHPFusion v7.01 Release Candidate 2. This package is only meant for people willing to help us with the final inspection of v7.01, which we plan to release as soon as possible, and considering everyone is expecting the final result you should aim for a maximum of two weeks of testing. Just to be safe, do not use this package on a production website unless you backup everything before and you are willing to take responsibility for fixing anything going wrong after the update.
