PHPFusion v7.01 released
Posted by kneekoo on 08/01/2010
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:

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.
