Flux CMS DevBlog

We plan soon to upgrade all Freeflux.net accounts to the 1.3 branch and with that to the new admin look&feel. Before it hits the masses, it should be tested a little bit more. Whoever likes to do that, drops us a note, either here in the comments or via the contact form.

You can either open a new Freeflux account specifically for this tests or we just upgrade your existing account already now to the 1.3 branch. The upgrade should be painless and if something nevertheless goes wrong, we do have backups :)

If you start testing and hit some bugs or have other suggestions for improvements, just post them to the forum.

Some other features relevant for the common Freeflux user we added to the 1.3 branch are:

- Blog: Improved spam checker (check against XBL, works with "default" DNS servers) (more)
- Blog: Tags for entries (more)
- Blog: Added geolocation properties (more)
- Blog: Added bookmarklet code (JustBlogIt compatible) (more)
- Editors: liveSave for oneform editor added (more)
- Editors: Updated Kupu-Code to latest release (more)
- dbforms2: Replacement for very old dbforms code (more)

BTW, the dbforms2 layout will change a little until the official update.

Thanks for your help.
