For those of you who didn’t know, Expression Engine 1.5 has been released. If you’re running the Linklist module, this should be a seamless update, I encountered no problems with the new version.
Some features I’ll highlight for you that are pretty nice:
- New Simple Commerce Module. I know plenty of folks have been totally waiting for this. You can now interface directly with paypal. It’s pretty exciting!
- Template Preferences Manager. This is definitely a great feature. Now you can mass change options for your templates, even if they’re in different template groups!
- HTTP Authentication to templates. This is pretty cool. Just remember though that passwords are passed through in clear text using this method unless you’re using a secure connection!
There are plenty more changes and fixes in this version, just check out all the changes at the Change Log.
