Software Update: Nucleus CMS 3.0

Nucleus CMS is a content management system that runs on an environment with PHP 4+ and MySQL 3.23.x+. With this package of scripts you can easily keep track of weblogs or journals. The development team has recently released version 3.0 with the following changes:

Added:

• class attributes on textareas that allow skins/templates to be edited (karma)

Changes:

• Admin area style power up (Radek)
• Took out the HTTP Authentication part for now (it has no real use yet, and caused problems when Nucleus is installed in a protected directory)

Fixes:

• When adding a weblog, select globally defined default skin by default (TeRanEX)
• CSS conflict in default skin (moraes)
• ADMIN.php no-cache after doctype added to support dynamic content for plugins in admin area (rADo2)
• vars4.1.0.php fixed a strange bug for some PHP installs having empty $_REQUEST[] (rADo2)
• globalfunctions.php – added a flag preventing include of vars…php twice for custom install (rADo2)
• install.php – added a flag preventing include of vars…php twice for custom install (rADo2)
• install.php – installCustomSkins skinbackup.xml renamed (rADo2)
• install.php – installCustomPlugs now correctly syncs plugin events (rADo2)
• Forcing focus on add/edit window after closing media library (nakahara21)
• Documentation and errors now tell to chmod config.php to 444 instead of 644 (hcgtv)
• Install script used $PHP_SELF, which is not available when register_globals is off (nakahara21)
• Skin import failed if there were CDATA sections (Nucleus Japan)
• undoMagic choked on array variables (Nucleus Japan)
• htmlspecialchars causes broken url like “&” (Nucleus Japan)
• PostAddCategory event was never called (Nucleus Japan)
• PostAddCategory event was not called when creating a new weblog (Nucleus Japan)
• problem on category lists (nakahara21)
• When the ‘Allow login edit’ option was disabled, the e-mail address was not checked for validity when a user edited his/her settings. This would cause an email with new password to be sent out to an invalid address. (Frankenstein)
• Some PHP files were missing the closing ?&g;t tag (ikeizer)
• Plugins were enabled to delete options (leonbloy)
• XML-RPC: metaWeblog.newPost fails when an empty array is passed as list of categories (caused problems with Ecto)
