v1.3.11-beta2

The bundled external libraries have been updated, and a few more bugs have been fixed in this second beta.

2.0.0 Alpha 7

This Alpha 7 comes more or less a month after alpha6, and quite a few changes have been implemented now.

• caching for objects is now available
• we now use a more flexible filesystem
• the old and obsolete FCKEditor was removed
• we cleaned up our code files on some points (more to come in the future)

In order to run this version, you will need

• an Apache web server (2.4) with mod_rewrite enabled
• PHP 5.6+, we recommend PHP 7.1 - the 7.2 issues should be resolved, but more tests are needed (anyone?)
• composer installed on the machine

How to install:

• Unzip in a folder above your htdocs folder (ImpressCMS now places many files outside of the htdocs folder that is acessible from the internet, for security reasons.
• run 'composer update' in the htdocs folder
• go to your htdocs folder, and start the installation program.
