This is a question for anyone working on the Preview and Beta programs.

Are there any new developments on the blog for the upcoming X5 Professional version?

If so can you tell me what exactly?

Thanks, Nigel.

Hello Nigel,


You can keep track of this yourself, but better yet, join the beta program to be able to help out in new functions.

The blog update:

Blog

  • The UI has been re-organized as far as the blog customization is concerned. On Step 1, the Blog section is available, while on Step 3 you can find two Special pages, namely Blog and Blog: Page Article.

Thanks Andre.

I was just looking to see if there were any developments of the blog along the lines of making it similar to pages where one can add columns/rows/objects, etc. as we do on the normal web pages.  I need this type of flexibility.

I just wanted to know so I could decide whether to continue with using the blog function or not.  Does it look as though this is the case?  The description isn't clear enough for me to understand - in bold text.

What are the "Special Pages" and Blog; Page Article?  

Thanks

Nigel

The update is not very big, if it is for you a reason to continue is something i cannot decide.

The special pages are found way below in step2.

Why not try it yourself? It's free, your own project's won't be harmend and you can help devolopping.

Thanks.  I don't want to use the beta version.  I think the blog won't have changed much so I have decided not to continue with the blog.  

Thanks Andre for your assistance.

Sorry, it's step3

That's also fine, it's for me difficult to know exactly what you want, so keep track of the change log, once you see something you think you like test it out, or wait untill the real version comes out and check then.

The PREVIEW version works distinctly from your stable version 2019.3, you can keep both on your PC, one does not create problems on the other.
