Pixaria Gallery 2.8.0 Released

I'm delighted to announce the immediate availability of Pixaria Gallery version 2.8, the first major update to Pixaria of 2010 and an important step on the path to the improved sales and e-commerce capabilities planned for this year.

This update includes a mix of new features, enhancements and bug fixes across the entire admin area that I hope will improve the user experience for everyone from admins to visitors.

The most important part of this update is an overhaul of the product administration control panel which is the first step in a series of changes leading to the implementation of new features such as support for one off or limited edition products like paintings and workshops. The work that's been done so far brings the user interface for product management into line with the rest of the admin area and includes changes to the database necessary to enable more product types. The update also adds support for rich text editing in product descriptions though this won't truly come into its own for a couple of releases yet.

Other improvements in version 2.8 include rewritten group management tools, new support for assigning permissions on a group by group basis and a completely rewritten security and authentication sub-system.

For full details of the changes in this update, be sure to check out the release notes and change log and don't forget that because there are some front end template changes in this release, it's a good idea to consult the template comparison tool before upgrading if you're using a custom theme.

As usual, registered users can get the update by e-mailing me at [email protected].
