Why I love Zikula (Reason #768)

Today I had a problem: I am working on a theme that is supposed to use AJAX. Now Zikula only offers it's own AJAX solution for modules only. And I asked on the developers' list how I can solve this problem. And I thought I get a low level do it yourself AJAX recommendation. But au contraire...

Theme Creator?

I am currently picking up work on "Noobtheme". I started two themes some months ago: Basetheme and Noobtheme. Both to help start with themes. While basetheme is a minimal theme that you can install and hang you CSS tinsel on via text editor ... [More] , Noobtheme addresses the need of newbies for a nice looking basic theme that they can customize. It was the first theme to make extensive use of themevariables. But themevariables are hidden in the administration, which made me take it to the next level. [Less]

Time to Embrace PHP 5

Out with the old and in with the new? We not quite, but since the release of PHP more than 5 years ago, it's finally time we all took the responsible action and left PHP 4. Most webhosts are using PHP 5 and those that aren't need a wake up ... [More] call.

The Zikula Project will now cease support for PHP 4 in the next major release of Zikula Core, version 1.3.0 slated for late January 2010.

This will open up many possibilities for both Core development and for 3rd party module developers. [Less]

Intraweb 2.1 available

The version 2.1 of Intraweb is available. The installation is also available in English.

To create the Intraweb no single line of the core of Zikula has been changed, but a set of modules that improve communication in communities of users ... [More] have been incorporated.

The version 2.1 is based on Zikula 1.1.2. Apart from the system modules, the Intraweb incorporates some modules extracted from the database of 3rd party and 18 modules created specially for the project that I outline below.

Open Source blessings and curses

One of the huge advantages of Open Source is that rather than re-design the egg every time, we can take advantage of code that's already been written and use it in our own project. In theory we can just drop it in and forget about it.

extDB and Gettext

I've received a lot of questions from module authors about how to get their translations onto the translation portal and how to create language packs. I'd like to take a little time to explain the systems that are now in place.

GPL - Appropriate Licensing

Open Source is all about free software, and usually community spirit around software development. In fact the open source model has even become a multi billion dollar industry. I would like to explore the licensing models the enshrine FOSS and their appropriate use. We will see, not all licenses were created equally.
