Version 7.6.12:

I’m excited to say that later today WebGUI 7.6 will finally be shedding it’s beta label. And there are a few secret projects for 7.6 I’ve been working on that I can finally share with you!

The first project is that we have built an iPhone app that will allow you to upload pictures from your iPhone directly to your favorite WebGUI photo gallery! You can either upload photos from your camera roll, or take a new one and upload it right after taking it. This should be great for those taking pictures on site at live events. And best of all, we’re releasing it free. It’s sitting in the App Store approval process right now, and I hope it will be out for you to start using this week.

The second project is a plugin for iPhoto on your mac. With this plugin you can upload a whole album of photos directly to your WebGUI site without leaving iPhoto. We’re also investigating building a Google Picasa plugin so that Windows users will have the same functionality available to them. For these plugins we’re charging a nominal $10 fee to help cover the cost of development. The iPhoto plugin is available in the bazaar now!

But 7.6 isn’t all about special projects. It has tons of new features right in WebGUI. We implemented well over 100 community suggested RFEs in this release. In addition, we added some new major features:

• We rewrote the Survey from the ground up. It’s now all Ajax, so it’s much faster to build out surveys and take surveys. And the survey engine is much more flexible, so it can now tackle even more complex surveys quickly and easily.
• We rewrote the Matrix from the ground up as well. As you probably know WebGUI’s Matrix asset powers CMSMatrix.org, the world’s number one stop for evaluating content products, as well as a host of other matrix sites. The new matrix is ​​much faster, uses WebGUI’s new comment system, has lots of new helpful features like stickies, and each listing in the matrix gets it’s own search engine friendly URL.
• There’s also a new admin bar, which is ultra configurable, and has categories under the new content menu. This configurability goes far beyond the admin bar though, you can also use it to rename fields and tabs in all your assets, or even get rid of certain tabs that aren’t useful to your users, and create new ones that are.
• Probably the biggest new feature is the rewrite of account management. In this you get a new speedy interface to WebGUI’s inbox, a new user-friendly way to manage friends and other social networking features, and the whole thing is both configurable and pluggable so you can add your own account components to your own sites.

There are lots of other things WebGUI 7.6 brings to the table, and I’m sure you’ll discover them as soon as 7.6 is released. It will be coming out later today, and both the beta and demo servers will be updated to run it so you can play around.

But wait! There’s more! Over the next month you’ll also see an updated WRE, for WebGUI 7.6 so that when you install new sites you won’t have to add the extra Perl modules 7.6 requires, and there’s a new version of the Content Manager’s Guide on it’s way for WebGUI 7.6 as well.
