timgno has announced a new module "Video by User" focused on YouTube videos.

The main feature is that you can update automatically YouTube videos from the YouTube user account, and thus keep track of the latest entries of your favorite friends, TV programs, or events. Instead of going to YouTube and check each user individually, you can update to the their latest videos directly from your XOOPS Website.

Another advantage over other similar modules is that "VideoByUser" does not store the info in a database and therefore occupies very little disk space.

Security is always the highest priority for XOOPS, and therefore we are releasing Security Updates as soon as we find a viable solution.

This is a temporary quick fix for Protector module, addressing potential local file inclusion vulnerability reported by DSRG. We hope that GIJOE, the author of Protector, will address this issue in future releases.

It is included in XOOPS 2.3.2a Security release, but if you're using Protector on XOOPS 2.0.x or 2.2.x, and your XOOPS_TRUST_PATH is located inside the Root, you are advised to upgrade to the version included in this package.

If your XOOPS_TRUST_PATH is outside of the Root (as you should!), you're not affected by this vulnerability.

For more information on how to make your XOOPS installation more secure, please read this article

XOOPS Development Team
November 28th, 2008

JahArt Studio published its list of CMS TOP 40 of 2008.

We were very pleased to see that XOOPS was listed as #6.



This is a second good news in the last two days. This month XOOPS was ranked as #24 overall project and with that the #1 CMS project hosted at SourceForge

Our "Spread XOOPS" campaign will hopefully contribute to more visibility and recognition of XOOPS. Every little mention of XOOPS helps. Every positive article about XOOPS helps. Please join us in spreading word about XOOPS.

We are looking for "Marketing Coordinators" for each country. Please contact me if you're interested.

Shoutbox is an XOOPS module that provides an interactive block and pop-up window for visitors to post and view messages. This release addresses most of the feature requests and bug reports we have received.

Features in this release include the addition of selectable guest avatars in preferences. You can also replace the avatars supplied with your own gif's if desired. Word censoring support has been added which ties directly to Word Censor Options system preferences. Refresh issues have all been resolved. Full page refresh only occurs when an incorrect captcha confirmation code entry is detected OR when Frameworks captcha class is selected. An additional option now appears in the popup window console that allows to visitor to enable/disable the Sound On New Message feature. Several minor defects were cleaned up which were causing notices to appear in the debug mode.

For download check the module repository under Communications or go to CVD ShoutBox v4.04 Download

Instant Zero has released a new commercial module to manage your newsletters on your XOOPS site: SimpleNewsletter

SimpleNewsletter allows you to easily create and send newsletters (in text or in html) to the registered users of your site (whatever their number is) and it will enable them to read the past issues from your site.

Main features of the SimpleNewsletter module:

Unlike other newsletters modules, it is capable of sending large numbers of the same newsletter to your users through one of its blocks or via a CRON (a kind a planified task).

In its administrative part, the module allows you to create as many newsletters as you want, to stop and to resume shipments, to edit and remove newsletters, to manage subscriptions (adding or removing members, adding all Members of the site), to manage the content of a welcome and goodbye email when users unsubscribe. You can also manage the welcome of the index page.

On the user side, the module can show a list of the previous newsletters and to view the content of each one.

The module is integrated to the Xoops search, it has an RSS feed and has 4 blocks :
- The list of the last subscribers
- The last newsletters
- A block allowing each user to know his state (subscribed or not)
- A dedicated bloc to send newsletters if you don't have a CRON.

The XOOPS Development Team is pleased to announce the release of XOOPS 2.3.2

This release is solely for a couple of critical security fixes, including an XSS vulnerability reported by Digital Research Group, potential local file inclusion vulnerability reported by DSG, Autologin bug reported by Dylian and a backward bug in data synchronization reported by boy0917.

All XOOPS 2.3.x users are highly recommended to upgrade to this version ASAP.

Patches for old versions might be available soon.

Download from Sourceforge repository.

In the last three weeks we had additional 5,000 downloads of the XOOPS 2.3.1.

As the chart below shows, we have a very steady interest in this new version (we've reached the 5,000 downloads mark in the first two weeks, so this is only 1 week extra for the latest 5,000). This is a good sign, as most of the time software downloads peak in the first few weeks and then go down.




We can also see the high interest in XOOPS by the download numbers of the XOOPS Uniform Server developed by Kris. In the last seven weeks it has been download over 3,200 times:

Happy XOOPSing to all!!!

Hi Xoopser,

If you have questions, you can write in my sinnedesign forum.




I hope you like the Theme.

Your Sinnedesign

Recently on an install of www.mydea.info it was noticed that something is unsantizing your environment, this is when you recieve error messages for systems that do not even exist in the process being done by the internet or coming to you from your DSL.

MYDEA (Media) Empowerment is a site by a collegue and friend Roy Smith, this was being worked on during the con-current processes I have found myself in my software development base.

This FC is in caution to you as it was repaired from what desantized your insanziation of the software in your own hosting provider, but remember you have the exact same copy that I am running, and yes I do zip them at the hosting local, for some reason also in this I have the old logo appear that was never even put on the internet..

The X-Center is and will remain quiet popular as I have had many enquires about the content module so I have revamped it and released it to you.

My Development Scedule after I have been released, will be the follow process:

Quote:

XOOPS:2.0.18.1

ShoutBox is an XOOPS module that provides an interactive block and pop-up window for visitors to post and view messages. In this release we redesigned the captcha feature so we are no longer employing a local copy of the captcha class. For captcha to function properly on sites with older versions of XOOPS such as 2.0.18.2, Frameworks 1.35 must also be installed. If you are running XOOPS 2.3.x and you have Frameworks 1.35 installed then you have the option of using Frameworks captcha OR core captcha selectable through module Preferences. Frameworks 1.35 download is available at http://www.xoops.org/modules/reposito ... file.php?cid=101&lid=1766

Other features in this release are the addition of wordwrap setting and enable/disable display of avatars in the ShoutBox block. These options are specifically targeted for those who are displaying the ShoutBox in a very narrow column. By adjusting the wordwrap setting you can eliminate the appearance of the horizontal scrollbar and by disabling the display of avatars you have more room for text to be displayed.

This release has been tested on XOOPS 2.0.18.2 and XOOPS 2.3.0

The download of this release is now available at Custom Virtual Designs downloads

Hi Xoopser,

Here is my travel catalog and blog portal of the top travel regions from the world.

The site build using

- xoops 2.0.18.2
- wordpress 2.0.11 from NovaSmart
- logcounterx 2.72
- protector 3.2






I have generated clean urls with XoRewrite and wordpress.
If you have any questions, feel you free and ask me.

My lovely travel destination is Italien.

In the next time i'm planning an upgrade of xoops-2.3.1.

And here is my site Reiseziele and here is my travel feed

regards, nice weekend and happy Xoopsing.

As some of you might know, the XOOPS Project has previously set a XOOPS Foundation under the name "Stichting XOOPS" in the Netherlands. Unfortunately, the "Stichting XOOPS" has been "missing in action", and our repeated calls to the former Chairman, Herko Coomans to hand over the Foundation and its assets back to the XOOPS project, didn't lead to any resolution. We have now entered into a legal conversation with Herko, still hoping that we'll resolve this issue in an "amicable way".

However, if this would not happen, we need to be prepared to initiate legal steps.

Therefore, the XOOPS Council has decided to set a "XOOPS Foundation" as a non-profit organization in the USA, which we did. This will allow us to have a legal entity that can represent and protect XOOPS interests.

The primary goal of the XOOPS Foundation is the promotion of the Open Source use and the development of the XOOPS Web Application System within the scope of the General Public License (GPL), as defined by the Free Software Foundation, and to be the legal representation of XOOPS.

Now that we have a legal entity, we can accept donations/contribution. If you like the XOOPS system, and would like to give something in return, you can make a donation to our new XOOPS Foundation! Simply use the PayPal payment system to transfer your donation to the Foundation account. Your donation will be used to promote and advance the use and development of the XOOPS.

We believe that we're have made major improvements in 2008, and thus set a strong foundation for years to come. We finally have merged the 2.0.x and 2.2.x branches into unified XOOPS version 2.3, and we're looking forward to the upcoming XOOPS 3 version.

We also enjoy an extremely strong and dedicated worldwide community, and we're looking forward to work with each and every one of you to make XOOPS the best it can be!!!

Remember: XOOPS is Powered by YOU!!!

Calling for Marketing Experts

Now that XOOPS is back on track:

* XOOPS 2.3.1 released
* 11,000 downloads in first 4 weeks
* finalist in SourceForge Community Awards in Best Project category
* finalist in Packt Publishing CMS Awards
* Board of Advisers established

we need to let the world know about it. For many years it seemed like XOOPS is the "best kept secret".

Once discovered and given a chance, the users love it. But we need more people to know about it

Interestingly enough, XOOPS members had already this idea before, but it seems like it unfortunately died. It was called the "Spread XOOPS Project"

As we hate to reinvent the wheel (that's why we've re-started the WOX (World of XOOPS) Newsletter, that was also dormant for many years), we'll be restarting now the "Spread XOOPS Project" Initiative.

So today we are calling for all Marketing/Communication/PR experts from all over the world to help us in spreading the good news about XOOPS.

Even if you're not an expert, but would like to get involved in our Marketing Team and help, please join us. We will need people who can help us in reaching to local communities, promoting XOOPS on social networks, to local schools, universities, and local governments.

As it was said almost three years ago:
