Icy Phoenix 2.0
-----------------------------------
Hi all,
I'm glad to announce that Icy Phoenix 2.0 first stable release is available for downloads.

[size=12][color=#dd2222][b]What's New Respect To Latest Stable Release[/b][/color][/size]

[list][*][b]CMS[/b] recoded with many AJAX features
[*][b]Plugins System[/b] with ACP modules and specific permissions that could be managed through CMS
[*][b]Cache Functions[/b] ported from phpBB 3
[*][b]DB Class[/b] ported from phpBB 3
[*][b]User Class[/b] ported from phpBB 3
[*][b]Auth System[/b] ported from phpBB 3 and integrated into CMS and Plugins
[*]Many [b]Core Functions[/b] ported from phpBB 3
[*]Almost all core [b]SQL[/b] checked and rewritten
[*][b]New classes[/b] coded to improve useability and simplify coding and modding
[*]Optimized [b]templates[/b] parsing
[*]New [b]Mobile[/b] style (automatically detected)
[*]Improved [b]SEO[/b] functions
[*]Revamped [b]AJAX Chat[/b] with Private Rooms
[*]Brand new [b]Tags[/b], [b]Share[/b] and [b]Likes[/b] features
[*]Custom [b]BBCodes[/b] in ACP
[*][b]Multiple Vote Polls[/b]
[*][b]Many smaller updates and features... install the latest version to enjoy them all![/b][/list]

[color=#880000][b]Old templates[/b]: please note that the template system has been totally revamped, so templates designed for Icy Phoenix 1.3.0.53 or below won't work at all with this version. Update versions for all styles will be available very soon here: [url=http://www.icyphoenix.com/styles/]Icy Phoenix Styles. Also you may want to keep monitored styles on GIT: [url=https://github.com/MightyGorgon/icy_phoenix_styles]Icy Phoenix Styles @ GIT.[/color]


[color=#006600][b]Translations[/b]: please note that lang packs for Icy Phoenix 1.3.0.53 won't work with this version. Lang packs need to be updated before you can use them on your site. I will update all lang files in download section as soon as translators will send me their latest release. You can find latest development translations here: [url=https://github.com/MightyGorgon/icy_phoenix_langs]Icy Phoenix Languages @ GIT.[/color]


[color=#880088][b]Customizations And Mods[/b]: please note that this version has many core code differences from the previous one, so it is really unlikely that old customizations and mods will work on this beta release. If you currently have some mods installed and you cannot update them on your own, you should be aware that you will not able to use those old mods until someone is going to update them.[/color]


[size=12][color=#dd22dd][b]Requirements[/b][/color][/size]
Before trying to install Icy Phoenix make sure you have the following [b]STRICTLY NEEDED[/b] requirements:
[list][*]At least 40 MB of free space in the folder you would like to install the package
[*]Web server with PHP (5.2 or higher) installed and running (works best on Linux + Apache)
[*]MySQL (5 or higher) database with at least 5MB of free space (of course the space needed depends on how big your site will be... 5MB is enough for a basic empty setup)
[*]Ability to set CHMOD permissions[/list]
These other requirements (even if not strictly needed) are suggested for optimal performance of Icy Phoenix:
[list][*]Webserver with .htaccess capability
[*]Apache Rewrite Mod installed and running
[*]GD Libraries (at least 2.0.28) installed and running
[*]Register Globals set to OFF[/list]
