[7 issues]

In addition to the bug fixes, the new release replaces the venerable FCKeditor with the much improved CKEditor. This means a much better editing experience in the admin pages, as well as a huge decrease in page loading time on editor pages. CKEditor also allows tighter  integration with other modules, such as the planned File Manager replacement (not in this release, but in testing now).

Additionally, the included templates AABox and Compromise have both been updated to match the feature set of the default Fallback template. This simply means that all the features and functions available in the Fallback template are now also available in the other templates.

v2.1 Development Update

There has been a lot of activity with the next major release of osCMax. Big changes are coming that I think you will be very pleased with. We are currently finalizing the expected feature set, but are already well on our way with development. Some highlights already completed are the Phone Order system allowing administrators to use their site as a customer service point of sale and the improved SEO categories menu. On the admin side of things, the entire interface is being completely redesigned. We are using jquery to bring the usability to a new level and allow you to squeeze much more productivity out of your time. The final UI has not been decided but to give you an idea of the amount of changes already done, here are a couple screen shots:

As more progress is made, I will be posting more sneak peeks at the new version. Look for release announcement for osCmax v2.0.25 later this week.
