Hi everybody,
We have been listening and today we bring you our first update via our beta channel. 1.5.7
From now on we will be putting the auto-updates to the test via our beta channel so folks can test and report back issues from the auto-updater. We are also working on the roadmap and feature categorization to start formalizing our build process. We have also included new build numbers to each realease as we will be moving to an automated build process soon. We will be able to identify commits and release more efficiently due to our build numbers and also for stability purposes.
We have also started work on our next major feature: i18n for the admin. I am glad to report that the resource bundle plugin is currently being updated in the core ColdBox and as of last night supports multi-file loading, unloading, customizations and soon db loading. This will allow us to offer a better language management and ability to create language packs for ContentBox. Once we have more things to show we will post them here to get them started.
Here are the release notes for 1.5.7 patch. As you will see we got to fix all the blunders of 1.5.6 and our move to a content store repository but also added a few awesome things like admin skinning. You can now have the ability to override the css/js of the admin and manipulate it at your will. From the admin in the settings section you will see the admin skin drop down now. You can build modules that implement our admin theme and register the new them upon activation thanks to Nolan from Guardly. We have also added the ability to install ContentBox via our DSN wizard onto Hypersonic Embedded SQL database if you are in Railo. This allows you to generate embedded databases for ContentBox.
