1. CMS Builder 3.14 - new HTML5 uploader |
CMS Builder 3.14 has been released (version requires: PHP 5.6+ and MySQL 5.5+).
Some of the new features:
- File Uploader: We've implemented a new HTML5 uploader for easier multi-file uploading. This replaces the old defunct Flash uploader that was no longer working in modern browsers.
- Security: In this release, we've made several notable security updates.
- Added a new option for using SSL with MySQL. This can be used to secure MySQL connections when working with a remote database. Note that the database server must be configured to accept SSL connections.
- Added a new option for automatic data encryption, allowing selected field data to be encrypted in the database with the AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) algorithm.
- The CMSB data folder can now be stored outside of the web root to further secure sensitive data, such as backups and schema information.
- Backup & Restore: Restore operations are now performed incrementally and will reload the browser to avoid timeouts with large backups.

3. Dave's Skyscraper Jump Fundraiser |
Hello friends!
In two weeks I'm jumping off a Vancouver skyscraper... to raise money for children with disabilities, and I need your help!
I've never rock climbed or rappeled before, and I don't really like heights, so this is pretty scary, and it's going to be uncomfortable, but I'm willing to take action in the face of that, if there's a chance it will inspire you to take action as well!
We all know how good we have it, and how hard it can be for others. It's so easy to do nothing, but it's also easy to do something, and that's what I'm asking you to do. Please click the link below and make a donation. My goal is to raise $2,000 in the next two weeks.
This is all through Easter Seals, a trusted charity since 1952, that is helping local children with disabilities.
Thank you for joining me in this. Let's make a difference together! https://eastersealsbcy.akaraisin.com/dropzone/daveedis
