We are excited to announce the launch of Halogy 1.1 which includes some cool new features and full CodeIgniter 2.0 support.

CodeIgniter 2.0

You can now use Halogy on CodeIgniter 2.0 and we've made installation/upgrade a breeze. Simply replace your Halogy folder with the new one and that's it! There are no database schema changes to make. CodeIgniter 2.0 makes Halogy faster, and more secure.

Run in a Folder

We often got requests for the ability to run Halogy inside a folder, or to at least be able to run it from the default 'index.php' setup that CodeIgniter comes with. Previously this was not possible in Halogy 1.0, but now with Halogy 1.1 you can run from any path you want, just specify it in your config.

Nested Pages Within Nested Pages

Want a third level of navigation and pages? Done. Simply select a nested page as the new page's parent and you will benefit from a third tier of pages. We made some of the UI for adding pages and selecting parents a bit slicker too.

Bug Fixes and Speed Enhancements

We've fixed a load of bugs since version 1.0 and have sped things up a lot. You'll notice improved results when enabling gzip compression (from config.php) which is a native CodeIgniter function that now works nicely with Halogy.

License Changes

We've made a few changes to the license, most importantly we've made the Pro version a lot more affordable, starting at just $79 for the Shop, Email Campaigns and Forums modules. The Multi-site Manager has also come down in price to just $299 which also includes the Pro modules. You can now use Halogy on unlimited websites without having to buy multiple licenses and the Multi-site Manager helps you control all of these websites really easily.

To get hold of the latest version of Halogy 1.1 you can either follow our repository on BitBucket or you can just download from our website here. Feel free to submit bugs using BitBucket's Issue Tracker or on our Forums.

We really hope you enjoy using Halogy 1.1!

Please note: users of Halogy Core 1.1 can only use Halogy for 'personal use' such as a personal website, or blog. Using Halogy for commercial use requires the purchase of Pro. For more on this read our license.
