XOOPS 2.3，XOOPS史上最好的版本之一， 世界上最领先的CMS解决方案之一，已经很接近最终版本发行。

XOOPS 开发团队很荣幸宣布发布 XOOPS 2.3.0 RC3.

XOOPS 2.3版本的目标是合并2.0和2.2两个现有的分支，并为我们下一代系统XOOPS 3.0建立桥梁。

我们非常重视在先前版本发布后收到的所有反馈，据此这个发行候选版带来了一些修正。

我们相信XOOPS 2.3已经“特性齐全”，准备好最终发布。我们只需要消除所有潜在的漏洞，在此需要您的大力协助。

通过XOOPS 2.3版本发布，用户将能够了解在XOOPS 3.0中将提供的某些新功能，同时开发者可以更好地了解XOOPS发展的方向，设计师可以了解未来将支持哪些功能。
将尽可能保证向前和向后的兼容性。为2.0.*和2.2.*编写的模块将能在2.3上工作；为2.3开发的程序将自动与XOOPS 3.0兼容。
鼓励开发者在其应用模块中编写XOOPS 2.3，以便能够加入一些新特性，并确保到XOOPS 3.0的轻松迁移。

RC（发行候选）版本仅仅是锁定此版本的主要特性，并在此特定版本中引入了一些小改进。

请记住：此发行版仅用于测试！请不要在生产网站上使用。如果要在之前的测试安装上安装，请先备份！
请注意，为先前XOOPS版本所作的一些修改可能不会与此版本兼容：在安装前进行测试总是好的选择。

What's New for Developers ----------------------------------- 1 Improved XOOPS ORM by enabling extensible persistable object handler: - The improved persistable object handler supports almost all common methods for database access and data treatment, so that developers do not need to write their own classes or methods; - Custom handler is supported. Developers can add their own handler if they want more functionality or to replace XOOPS native handlers. 2 Improved text sanitizer: - Custom extension is supported. Developers can add new filters or methods to sanitizer based on their specific needs. - Built-in extensions, which can be disabled or enabled (e.g. for Flash, YouTube, images, Wiki, syntax highlight, text filter, etc.) - Combined with improved persistable object handler (see above), text input from users will be filtered automatically for security considerations. 3 Custom Frameworks support: - Module developers can add their own library or frameworks (located in XOOPS_ROOT_PATH/Frameworks) which can be shared by other modules. - PEAR, Geshi have been provided as custom libraries in Frameworks. - Once the code inside Frameworks is proven stable and valuable, they will be adopted by XOOPS core and moved into XOOPS core package. This way we can build a standard, efficient channel for third-party developers to contribute. 4 XOOPS editor packages are now supported officially: - A XoopsEditor handler is built to accept third-party editors; - Three editors, including Textarea, Dhtmltextarea, and Extended Dhtmltextarea are provided in XOOPS core. FCKeditor, TinyMCE, Koivi are now provided as third-party add-ons. 5 XOOPS CAPTCHA is built into XOOPS core: - CAPTCHA has been added to registration and comment forms. - Module developers can add CAPTCHA very easily to their applications. 6 XOOPS Control Panel GUI is introduced: - Old administration interface has been kept as legacy - A new interface is designed, although very rough at this stage - Custom interfaces are allowed, ThAdmin by MusS and Kris is the first one introduced 7 XOOPS file and folder engine is added, based on CakePHP. 8 XOOPS Cache engine is built based on CakePHP. 9 Some other improvements and new resources: - XoopsLocal for localization; - XoopsLoad emulating SPL autoload in PHP5; - XoopsUtility as a collection for miscellaneous methods used by XOOPS; - Block clone feature is activated to save module developers' efforts; - Enabled character set and collation support for MySQL 4.1+; - Upgraded Smarty to 2.6.19; - Upgraded phpmailer to 2.0.0; - Added XOOPS data and library folders for forward compatibility with XOOPS 3.0; - Added XOOPS_TRUST_PATH for compatibility with some modules, e.g. protector 10 For more changes, please check changelog.txt What's New for Theme/Template developers ----------------------------------- 1 Rel attribute for anchors is now supported. Developers/designers are encouraged to use (X)HTML compliant "rel" attribute instead of "target". 2 Control Panel GUI handler is introduced thus designers now get the power to make beautiful backend interfaces. What's New for Users ----------------------------------- Some of the new features that might interest users: - Default character set encoding has been changed to UTF-8; - Enabled "auto login" or "remember me"; - CAPTCHA is enabled for registration and comment system; - Block clone enabled so that webmasters have more flexibility; - XOOPS editor package is provided and most visual editors are avilable, e.g. FCKeditor, TinyMCE, etc.; - Side-wide editor; - Mask is added for start page; - Implemented new installer with user experience improvement experiments; - Permissions for access to user profile page is configurable. - Extensible Profile module - Private Messages Module - Extended DHTML as default, with inline preview enabled - EXM Admin GUI as an option System requirements ----------------------------------- PHP: Any PHP version >= 4.3 (PHP 4.2.x may work but is not officially supported, PHP 5.0+ is strongly recommended) MySQL: MySQL server 3.23+ (MySQL 5.0+ is strongly recommended) Web server: Any server supporting the required PHP version (Apache highly recommended) Downloading XOOPS 2.3 RC3 ----------------------------------- Your can get this release package from the sourceforge.net file repository.
