All about the development of Exponential (CMS) by Graham Brookins, 7x (formerly Brookins Consulting) and our think tank kracker.org.
7x is excited once again as we have officially released Exponential 6.0.10 GPL Stable Rebranded CMS + Web Development Framework for download.
This release removes from general use the eZ Publish Trademark text phrase in text, source code and used binaries, a new collapsed by default (reducing page scrolling issues in general by default) debug output tool bar initial implementation markup, CSS classes and JavaScript within the debug class which is also further override-able via extension (classes) as a kernel override class extension, this release also offers minor improvements and bug-fixes to continue to deliver the best cms possible to everyone.
Looking for a WordPress alternative that is a compelling case for better organized software platforms in general? Try Exponential it will certainly open up your eyes to continued possibilities not dead ends. Give Exponential a try today!
Enjoy Everyone!
Cheers!
I am very excited to announce the release of eZ Publish 6.0.9 which includes the new PHP 8.4 support to the kernel.
The headless cms crud rest apis were released originally as ezprestapi extension which replaces the ezprestapiprovider extension.
This is the first which we are bundling this extension (enabled by default installation) but not enabled via configuration settings to ensure a secure default installation. That said it's very easy to get started by configuring it for use and accessing the REST APIs.
My first attempt was to enable this package for use on digg.one to allow for remote content publishing apis to use to create stories nodes remotely in eZ. It works perfectly and it's very secure by design.
I would like to write an article with example source code showing how to consume and create content using this extensions HTTP APIs for rest calls.
There are very minimal booting changes from the previous release which require PHP 8.1 support. This means as of 6.0.8 PHP 7 Support is Deprecated and You must use PHP 8.1 or greater from now on. This is best for security reasons related to PHP support of older releases being minimal at best.
This means with eZ Publish 6.0.9 you can use the new PHP 8.4 support on your existing eZ Publish website with a simple backup and upgrade.
If you must continue to use PHP7 you can use the latest release from the 6.0.7 branch / release for the foreseeable future.
I am very excited to announce the release of eZ Publish Basic 2.4.0.0 which includes the new PHP 8.3 support to the kernel.
eZ Publish Basic is based upon an eZ Publish 2.x module based kernel now reorganized and refactored to use the main directory named 'kernel/' to hold all of the eZ Publish Basic Modules (presently, including your custom modules (refactor to operate within the eZ Publish Basic Kernel Layout)).
eZ Publish Basic comes with a strong recommendation to use mod_rewrite provided by Apache and many other similar web servers to route all requests through our main front index.php file. Same for admin virtual host based website administration.
eZ Publish Basic is the same cms as originally introduced as eZ Publish 1.0 to 2.2.9 (last version; surprisingly minimal changes in this time) with regards to base features provided and supported, yet eZ Publish Basic goes further with the integration of eZ Region from (Brookins Consulting; 2001) and many features developed to refine the e-commerce store integration not seen in years or ever. This makes eZ PB a more usable solution for USA based users. More feature expansion is expected in future releases as we release more code over time.
This means with eZ Publish Basic 2.4.0.0 you can use the new PHP 8.3 support on your existing eZ Publish 2 website(s) with a simple backup and upgrade. Note: eZ PB DB Schema is more improved than changed with few differences other than bugfixes.
Pull your older eZ Publish 2 code out of your hard drive records and take a walk down memory lane and upgrade today! Some development may be required.
7x plans to continue to support and develop eZ Publish Basic for the foreseeable future. Contact me if you are interested in buying 7x Paid Support to Hire me to help you reach your goals faster than alone.

7x Releases eZ Publish 6.0.7 On Valantines Day With New Copy Tree Feature for the eZ Administration!

Hello again, thank you for reading my blog. We at 7x stay small and nimble in our work to ensure a strong focus on quality control.
Have a quick look at the new eZ Publish 6 Project Home Page. This was just recently updated content under a new simpler to remember URL.
Here we will use this website to attract end users to our software and hopefully they will stay to join with our community of like minded website builders.
Have a look and consider joining our community today at any level you can, just speak up in the forums or chat channel.
