| Horizon QCMS 3.5 almost ready! |
| Horizon QCMS is a Quick Content Management System for creative minds.
With Horizon QCMS, you don't need to be a whizz kid to maintain your site. You don't need to know PHP or HTML because Horizon QCMS does the work for you. Best of all: Horizon QCMS is open-source software. |
| We are currently working on Horizon QCMS 3.5.
What's new: |
| * Facebook plug in *
|
|
|
We realize that more people are using social media nowadays so we decided to create a Facebook plug-in.
All you need to do is register your site on Facebook via the JavaScript SDK. You will get an App ID from Facebook.
Horizon will add all the necessary code for you in your website, and that's it.

| Improved page editor
|
|
|
| With the improved page editor it's very easy to edit your existing articles and to add new Youtube
movies or other multimedia content. |

| Youtube movies are now stored in the text area.

| With Horizon QCMS 3.5 you can add, edit or remove users. It's also a lot easier to remove existing articles due to the
interactive dashboard. Users with user level 5 can remove articles, use the navigation management, add new users and only the main user can remove and reset passwords for other users. The main user cannot be removed off course. Click here for more information. |
| We are also working on a check-for-update function so that you can check if updates are available
and version 3.5 will have a "Magic Quotes Patch." Some hosts have Magic Quotes enabled, and this will give unexpected results with Horizon QCMS. What is Magic Quotes anyway? When on, all ' (single), " (double quote), (backslash) and NULL characters are escaped with a backslash automatically. This is identical to what addslashes does. This feature has been DEPRECATED as of PHP 5.3.0. Relying on this feature is highly discouraged. So if your host enables Magic Quotes, then Horizon QCMS won't work well in version 3.4 and earlier. You really need to ask your host to turn this feature, of since we use the addslashes feature in Horizon QCMS. That means that each slash will have an extra slash, and that means that images won't be displayed in your web page thanks to the not very reliable magic quotes. |
