The Release Of MODx 2.2

image Revolution 2.2 improved Manager, there were media sources, static elements and implemented a fresh look at the creation of news feeds and blog entries.

MODX Revolution 2.2 at the moment claims to be one of the biggest releases. We spent a huge amount of time on work to improve Manager and administrative interface for their aesthetics and performance has brought the pleasure of using.

Version 2.2 also brings a lot of major functionality: media sources open up the possibility of selecting a storage location of the files, including Amazon S3 or potentially something like Dropbox (requires improvement); static elements allow developers to keep the website elements in the file system; and custom resource types open up the possibility of going beyond "one-size-fits-all" documents and the creation of custom types such as blog posts, events, biography based on the type of content (?).

Even more attractive Revolution 2.2 is a powerful new addition to the blogging, publishing, news and other publishing tasks, called Articles. If you feel that a news site or a blog took too much time, Articles for Revolution 2.2 will clear away obstacles from your old ways of using familiar tools for blogging. Articles has built-in functionality of import records WordPress and Blogger, and for other services such a possibility will be implemented in the near future. Take a look at Articles or try it with MODX Revolution 2.2.
