Umbraco 4, Beta 2, Take 4 released

Friday, December 12, 2008 by Administrator

Since the last beta release (beta 2, take 3, released November 16th) we’ve continued towards getting V4 ready for a release candidate status. This means more polishing of the UI, getting rid of performance issues, doing the final tweaks on the backend and simplifying where possible.

Especially TinyMCE received a lot of love and care for this release and is now almost feature complete.
Style insert now works, better then ever. Links and media handling has been fixed, so the only thing missing from being 100% complete is the paste functionality

Version4 is now compatible with SQLServer 2000, both for new installations and for upgrades.

We’re continuing on working on getting the UI visually 100% ready. There are still areas we would like to update before a final release, but it is all related to the UI, not functionality.

    Sound really great. Looking very forward to get the latest build :-)

    So the functionality is locked now ? Which means is safe to upgrade, if we can live with some bumps in the UI.

    Keep up the good work

    I'm a little puzzled by the line "Version4 is now compatible with SQLServer 2000, both for new installations and for upgrades."

    I've been running V4 on a MSSQL 2000 for a few months

    @Simon, at some point in the development the install script was not compatible with sql 2000.So I guess you have an earlier version running.
