It's been a while since the last update, with some progress on 2.0.2 but mainly have let 2.0.1 settle. Work has been started back up, there will be a slight delay with needing some initial brainstorming and the next version of AdaptCMS will be a minor update with a more major version coming soon after that.

As of now the most significant aspects of 2.0.2 is the phpBB integration and tagging. Even though tagging has been in the system, more importance will be put into it other than simply being a field you can use when adding content in the ACP. As well the social features of AdaptCMS will get some work, mainly in the bug fixing area but also some additions such as group images and an enhanced template.

Stay tuned for a blog to detail the changes/additions in the next version.

Insane Visions is excited to announce the next release, AdaptCMS 2.0.1 now available for download.

Despite being a "minor version", this release still packs quite a bit more than we originally planned. The biggest part is a whole lot of bugs fixed, from the mod_rewrite to the plugins being fixed and in many other areas. Another part was the security was enhanced, not just improving it in the social area of the site but a newly implemented "SALT" method. This makes it extremely difficult for anyone to hack your website and gain entry as the salt password is randomly generated for each Adapt website and unless they gain access to your MySQL backend, they can't get password hashes. The third part is of course the features!

One new feature is the plugins feature was worked on and along with it is new plugins to 2.0 "Sitemap", "TinyURL" and "Affiliates". These let you generate a sitemap on your website automatically for search engines, tinyurl simply gives you short URL's for any link you wish and affiliates is a link manager of sorts, letting you keep a list of affiliates which you can also track traffic out. Administration for the Social feature of Adapt is also now in, letting staff manage user blogs as well as upload new avatars that can be used or delete ones users have uploaded. 

There are also many minor features such as being able to select an author when managing content, now being able to leave comments on static pages, new main ACP page (matches version, shows latest news and notes), forgot password feature, two different date formats (june 9, 11 or 5 mins ago), timzone selector and much more.

With a short release period expect to see the next version, AdaptCMS 2.0.2, in the next month-month and a half.

Insane Visions is relieved and happy to announce the beta relelase of AdaptCMS 2.0.0! The process continues as 2.0.0 Beta is an open process, open to anybody to try out - no registration required.

AdaptCMS 2.0.0 Beta Download

The new beta is the very first release of the AdaptCMS 2.x line and if you have used AdaptCMS before, some things will seem familiar but overall is a different experience. Being the first version in the line, even with a private beta, it is noted that the chance of bugs is decently high - if you have a big successful site, don't run the beta on it.

If you are an AdaptCMS user or new to it, checkout the pages here at AdaptCMS.com to get some information as well as pictures and we hope you enjoy the beta. Be sure to not only stay tuned to InsaneVisions.com, but also on your beta "File Releases" page (website > acp/login > click "Upgrade AdaptCMS!") as you can directly update your beta files from there.

To reflect the total focus on the recently released beta of AdaptCMS 2.0 and in the near future, final version, AdaptCMS.com has been re-launched with the frontend design featured in the script and is also running on the latest version of AdaptCMS 2.0.

There is still a little work left to do, but it is functioning. Some work on the pages is upcoming closer to release of the final version of AdaptCMS 2.0, as well the news will end up being fed right through Insane Visions. Stay tuned for updates.

The new updating scheme will be starting soon - much more frequent then in any other Insane Visions product before and it will start with AdaptCMS 2.0.1 Beta. The idea is to push out bug fixes often with incremental changes and then the 2.x versions become moreso features than bugs/fixes.

This will help the activity look better - as it is, it looks like since 1.5 AdaptCMS has been dead and if not for then, it would look like no progress had been done between 2.0 and 2.1 in a 3 month or so period. This will also get bugs fixed quickly - which we've already done and is still the best to use the File Manager, but for the general public they also have an avenue.

Already there have been numerous content bugs fixed - mostly relation bugs when linking articles together in certain situations as well as linking to media. Look for a possible release in the next 1-2 weeks.

Insane Visions is pleased to announce a new beta for AdaptCMS 2.0 - AdaptCMS 2.0.1 Beta. This new version includes all the core files along with the newest files, which 2.0.0 users can just get through there admin control panel.

This is not a major upgrade and it only includes a few new features, but a lot of bugs fixed - including some major ones.

• Share - You can now create an IV account to use with the feature right from your ACP! As well the login issues should be fixed.
• Content Preview - A new, nifty feature that lets you preview the content without posting. At the moment it's just basic fields but may be expanded.
• Content Relating - The biggest improvement with numerous bugs from linking to media, in a list data if blank would be used with an un-related item, etc.)

In the next beta expect to see more features than just bug fixes.
