| WHAT'S NEW IN 3.0 | March 29, 2009 @ 2:50am | Hello Everyone!

Listed below the New Features as well as Bug Fixes included in this release.

- Ability to edit an existing page and save it as a new one
- Maintenance Mode with customizable message and ability to still allow certain user levels access
- New timestamp function now added to all areas of the site, allowing dates and times to reflect a site based in a different timezone than the server
- Ability to set a longer page title for use in browser titles (while not making a mess of emails, printable pages, etc)
- Ability to set browser title, meta keywords, and meta description on a per-page basis (overrides site defaults if entered)
- "Edit" link now displayed on pages the user has permission to modify
- Usernames can now be looked up by email address (emailed to user at the address on file). To accommodate this, accounts are now limited to one per email address.
- New Templates

eCommerce

- Fixed errors resulting from certain incorrect combinations of board codes
- Forum code can now be inserted around a selection in Mozilla-based browsers, instead of just at the end
- Long URLs now chopped to a reasonable length so pages aren't wildly stretched to display them (link still goes to full URL destination when clicked)

eCommerce
- Preferences dropdown for displaying actual stock had an incorrect label
Photo Gallery - Rebuild thumbnails function didn't work when the StorageLocationLocal box was empty

| Number 1 & 2 Position on Yahoo and Google | March 25, 2009 @ 3:28pm | FlexCMS is very SEO user friendly. I overtook the number 1 & 2 positons on Yahoo and Google for the keywords "Doctor of Management" in under six months with little effort.
I also have another FlexCMS website located at http://www.interstate22alliance.com that has quickly moved onto the first page of the search engines and is in the number 4 position for keywords "interstate 22" and "i-22".
I am looking forward to the upgrade.
Thanks,
Grady |

I tried a few sites and wasn't able to duplicate that. Have you made any changes anywhere? Feel free to send us your info at and we can have a look.

| Problem with the Country selection changes. | March 18, 2009 @ 5:52pm | I get this error display when I try to Manage the Countries. Do you have any ideas?
You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'limit 1' at line 1
Also the select all and deselect all does not work.
Cheers

I can't think of anything off hand that might cause that, but as you say it sounds like some security measure they've put in on their end (don't ya just love those?!). If you'd like to send your FTP and a FlexCMS site admin account to , I'm certainly happy to take a look and see if there's anything we can tweak to make it work, but I'm not optimistic about the outcome.
I used to really like ThinkHost when I first heard about them. They have a pretty good deal in terms of pricing, and the "green" aspect is a nice bonus, but they've had some pretty serious uptime issues lately (see here), which kind of kills the rest of it lol.

| PHP enabled blocks and Thinkhost | March 7, 2009 @ 7:55pm | I can get neither the news feed nor the RSS code to run using Thinkhost. I am not allowed to save blocks or pages when PHP enabled is checked or PHP is in the content area.
Has anyone else experienced this? Last time I entered a ticket on this it was a circular "non-supported" "possible bad code" response instead of a "we have set this up as a security issue" answer.
My own skills with PHP have improved since fighting this for over a year, but the problem remains and none of my tests/tricks/ranting has changed that.
Any help appreciated. I really like Thinkhost for a number of reasons, but something has to give. |

| February 19, 2009 @ 11:06am | What you asked for, I think. That code will make the printable version of pages show up in your stats.
If you're looking for a way to know that they actually printed it out, that's a technical impossibility from within a webpage.
