1.4, the most impressive update yet!

We are *extremely happy* to announce that we’ve launched version 1.4 (beta 1), with a bunch of new features (as promised). This release was mostly possible due to Ștefan Petre’s involvement, which I can’t thank enough! :)

As promised, we present you a few new cool items:

1. You can translate jobberBase UI through a single .ini file

The file is _includes/translations.ini and it should contain all the text strings in the site. You would only need to edit a few images (‘post job’ button and logo) to have a complete translation.

2. Static pages can now be created/edited/deleted from admin

We’ve moved most of the static pages in the database, to make it easier for you to edit their content. You can also create other pages and link to them. The system is pretty straightforward!

3. Change categories from admin

No need to get your hands dirty in phpmyadmin or other db administration tool. Categories can be created/edited/deleted from admin, now. You can also reorder them, through drag and drop!

4. Change admin password

Another missing feature in 1.3 was the ability to change your admin password from the admin panel. Now you can.

5. Bug fixes

Most had to do with the search engine. Thanks to all who posted fixes on the community forum! :)

Well, that’s it. Go ahead and download jobberBase 1.4 beta 1!

Your feedback is always very precious, so please don’t hesitate :) . The final version 1.4 will be launched after we make sure there aren’t any bad bugs out there.

    Fatal error: Call to a member function fetch_assoc() on a non-object in /var/www/vhosts/xxxxx.xx/httpdocs/tecno/_includes/functions.php on line 26

    HI,
    First of all, thanks so much for an awsome app!!

    I just installed the new 1.4b.
    Been changing the categories and get this error on the front-end:
    Notice: Undefined index: title_part1 in /usr/home/itkarria/public_html/medicalrec/page_category.php on line 50

    I guess it has something to do with the changing of the default links.
    How do i fix this?

    Thanks so much

  11. Daniel says:

    And how can i make the URL´s work with special characters like åöä?
    I tried to html encode them before i posted them in admin “Categories”.

    Thanks

  12. Filip says:

    Hi, Daniel,
    Please check out our forums — you’ll find some answers there :) .

    The thing with categories is this: *name* is the displayed text (on the buttons), while *varname* is the URL text.

  13. Evsion says:

    db structure/categorization remain the same? if i delete 1.3 and upload 1.4, can i use the db of my existing install/1.3 using import?

    thanks
