Announcement

Zikula Core 1.4 Release Candidate 4 is available as of today, 9 July, 2015.

Immediate testing is encouraged. You may download the RC from our links at zikula.org. Release testing guidelines may be found in the Core wiki. Installation and upgrade documentation can be found in the /docs directory.

Our Quality Assurance cycle, explained also in the Core wiki, will be followed in order to achieve our General Release. Please register your vote on the promotion of this build in the promotion ticket.

Zikula Core 1.4.0 is intended as a transition release between the very popular 1.3.x series and Zikula Core 2.0.0. While maintaining nearly 100% backward-compatibility, 1.4.0 lays the foundations of Symfony, Doctrine, Bootstrap, Font-Awesome, jQuery and Twig which will be the basis of future development. A new namespaced module structure is established that will be the new standard for 2.0.0 extensions as well as providing many new tools and features to make your site exceptional.
