Today we are opening the Radria web site to a small group.

To activate the full access to the beta site follow this link: http://radria.sqlfusion.com/beta.php

We need some feedback on the site before the full opening on November 8th.

We are very excited, Radria has a huge potential to improve web application development.
To unleash this potential we need a web site that can support a community of web designer and web developers.

The Radria web site is composed of a Wiki for the documentation, a blog for the news and information, a forum for support and exchanges and a Task manager to track what needs to be done to improve Radria

We also have a mailing list hosted on sourceforge: radria-general@lists.sourceforge.net

Users and contributers can work together on improving this next generation of web development tools.

Happy coding!

The new version of Radria is out.

It includes numerous bug fixes in the publishing and package management.
In this version we also have introduced a new command for the package installation: exec

The exec command allows you to execute a script in your project during the package installation.
This allows you to setup custom configurations that are not allowed by the general install commands.

Radria 0.8.2 is available for download on the radria site.

We have created a package for the great Vanilla forum application.

Its in the package repository: webapp ( Applications for your Web Site )

vanilla_forum_1.3.1 version 0.5

In the E-Commerce package repository there is a new google analytics package.

This is a very simple package that just add the google analytic javascript code in the header of all your site / application pages.

We fixed a few bugs in the following fieldtype packages:

• field_date_popup: Display a popup calendar to select a date
• field_text_suggest: Add an Ajax drop down with suggestions from sql query results (added documentation)
• field_color_picker: Show a Photoshop like color selector in javascript. (now reload the previously selected color)

You can upgrade your packages.

Also an updated version of Pagebuilder 3.7 updated to work with the new version of the color picker.

Much improved user by tag picture display.
The link from the thumbnails in the previous version was not that great and some time not working at all.

Now for each picture a request with all the available size is sent to flickr and the closed available size is put in the link with the proper static photo url.

Also created a class that manages the requested to flickr. In future versions the class will be implemented to the other Add-On scripts.

This package is available in the Package manager.

This new version of PageBuilder includes contextual syntax highlight.

This mean that you can click on any element in the page and it will display the associated source code in the bottom part. This with full syntax highlight.

The usability is not yet perfect as the “Save” icon need to be pressed to save the changes in the source code part.

Also tons of bugs where fixed in this release making it the most stable version to date.

This version of PageBuilder is available to users of Radria 0.8.1

Finished implementing the last features, we did a huge work on the documentation and it seems like we are ready to open radria to the public.

Its been 4 months since we started the new web sites and package Radria in an installable PHP application.

Radria is fare from final and the first public release will be called version 0.7.

We still have a lot of work before we can reach version 1.0.
