XOOPS 2.5.4 RC released

The XOOPS Development Team is pleased to announce that a new version, XOOPS 2.5.4 RC, is available for download and testing. In addition to updating our libraries to their latest versions:

  • phpMailer 5.1
  • TinyMCE 3.4.6
  • jQuery 1.6.4
  • jQueryUI 1.8.16
The major focus of this release is on updating all Core modules (PM, Profile, Protector) to our new ModuleAdmin GUI, so all of them have a consistent "look & feel": 
 
XOOPS Module GUI
 
The new Module GUI will be the official GUI for all modules supported by XOOPS, and  will drive:
  • Increased productivity
  • Decreased training and support costs
  • Reduced development time and costs
  • Reduced maintenance costs
  • Increased customer satisfaction
As next step, we'll be working on a "Basic Module Pack", which will contain the most popular XOOPS module in one user-friendly package, all with the new Module GUI.
