The password is hashed and salted and no longer printed naked in config file - using bcrypt. Is now as strong as the server and difficult to hack. * New settings page - control all from settings. No longer need to edit config.php when install just upload and go to /admin/ (password is "demo"). If want to edit on the code level championcore > storage > config.json / but shouldn't be needed. Config.php is just needed for the initial login. * Latest Redactor I added with video button. Will move to II or III soon. * Redactor II added. Sharp and sleek icons in the toolbar and more plugin compatibility and bug fixes in the editor * Forgot password added. Sends email to user registered in settings. * Customise login stylesheet added in admin / admin.css so designers can easily style the login page * 2 step authentication added - this is **_cool_** - so can lock down with smartphone verification for extra security with a secret key.

German and English currently but all baked in soon * Easy to flip front end home page from home > blog - if want to land on blog * Can flip admin landing page to dashboard, blog, stats etc for more customised login * Can use Redactor Editor on Pages or just HTML. No longer client scary! * New user editor added. This user cannot see settings page and only edit content. Good for client user. Designer (admin) can change their password (which is also hashed) and add 2 step authentication. This also includes secure forgot password emailing backup. * Designer can also restrict what pages / blocks editor can edit. For example, just want to create a blog for a client, you can do that now. Or We definitely do not want editors going into the pages section. They already find it hard to understand the concept. * Form now has SMTP settings in the settings page * Themes chooser - you can add more themes in the template folder in sub-folders and select them from settings dropdown for easy template changing on the site. * Themes can also be set per page too for multi-theme sites. * Blog now has tags in the META drawer, which can be seen on the front end too and when clicked show all posts in that tag. Blogs posts have the list of tags at the end of the post e.g. "#tag1 #tag2". If no tags are selected then the tag list at the end of the blog post does not appear. * There is a tag widget for editing tags! * Each blog post now has individual title + description meta tags - different to the blog page also which has it's own (SEO upgrade). * Sitemaps auto-generated and placed in root as sitemap.xml including blog posts (thanks to Tim again for the idea!) * New page or block creation now has a radio button for "page" or "folder" and auto adds .txt to pages and blocks so more user-friendly. * Embed individual blocks on pages like Champion v3. Embed URLs are now included for blog, blocks and galleries to add to non Champion template pages that are in the same folder (gives the option of template driven like in v4 and non-template like v3). Two options: relative & site specific - to cover both use cases. So you can also embed on same site other sites so in effect, controlling many sites from 1 Champion install is also possible! * Security fix - https://cxsecurity.com/issue/WLB-2016020228 * Markdown now in Blocks * Various RSS & Blog error fixes * Error reporting is now always on for developers * Added "MORE" to Redactor toolbar * htaccess/index.php sanitisation for private directories and turning off access to private urls. Adding rules to the .htaccess to block access too. * Custom post types added and a new Champion tag. The idea is that a site selling books (for example) would have fields for ISBN, cover image, date published, price, availability etc. These can be created and managed from the settings panel. Then using the new tag, for example {{custom_post_type:book/hercules}} the custom post data will appear on the front end. Useful for listing data or create e-commerce sites. * Upload images can now be resampled or original quality. Good for creating an upload repository for photographers for example. * Gallery outline bug fixed * New Feature - Drag and drop navigation UI found under settings. Much easier to create navigation over sb_nav.txt for users who don't want to edit HTML links. * Bug fix - Text position focus moves when doing a "save" * RSS now works with http or https + tag content now appears in rss.php * Champion tags now work when website is located in a sub folder * Top referrers in Stats links now fixed * Link to switch to a textarea (and back) for the case where low-level edits are needed on a per block basis (not just in settings) - works pages and blog entries too * New tag to add One Time Password to any page on front-end - not just password plugin using: {{sb_login:test:1234567890:testblock}} * Latest Redactor Editor includes many bug fixes, better mobile use, support for powerful codemirror in HTML mode, classes/ids on images for things like animation or lightboxes, added snippets (such as "more" for blog posts), can paste as plain text automatically and many more... * Ordered lists and un-ordered lists now appear in editor * Draft blog feature! Add "draft-" before blog file name to put it in draft mode so "draft-1.txt" etc. Delete "draft-" to put it live! * Migrate / Import blog feature! Import your Wordpress, Tumblr, Blogger, RapidWeaver or any blog using an RSS / atom feed and migrate to Champion without manually porting it over! Text, videos and images included. * Blog import even more in-depth and powerful! Options added for the page extension name and max number of pages for a deeper and wider RSS crawl. It's now a more flexible approach to different kinds of sources and will loop through even long and heavy WordPress blogs over multiple pages with 100s of blog posts! * Default timezone now JP baby! * Reqs information now included in admin/install.php for easier server checking after uploading (diag.php now install.php) * Recommend in most cases run the admin/install.php page firstly to auto-set the path, no need to set it and will run super smoothly! * Anyone still using less than PHP 5.6 gets redirected to install.php to make them realise they have to upgrade - even PHP 5.3 ended security support in August 2014!

Just add {{justforms}} to any page followed by options for form ID and form height and you can easily embed your forms e.g {{justforms:formid:height}} so {{justforms:1:300}} / Requires a Champion Cloud subscription to make forms * Gorgeous new default theme! Colourful, bright and simple - shows the power of Champion and finally modernises the default site.

This user cannot see settings page and only edit content. Good for client user. Designer (admin) can change their password (which is also hashed) and add 2 step authentication. This also includes secure forgot password emailing functionality. Designer can also restrict what pages / blocks editor can edit. For example, just want to create a blog for a client, you can do that now. Or we definitely do not want editors going into the pages section. They already find it hard to understand the concept.

Drop the Zip into settings then start using the Tag in your blocks and pages! The number of Tag variables (for developers) is now 6 CUSTOM POST TYPES Custom post types added and a new Champion tag.
