    • Update: A bug has been reported in Revolution 2.0.4 that Resource Groups do not function correctly leaving protected resources visible on the front end. This issue will only affect users who are using Resource Groups. Other sites are not affected by this issue.

      We will be releasing a patch release 2.0.4-pl2 within 4 hours.

      • We have corrected Resource Groups issue in MODx Revolution 2.0.4 and uploaded the updated version Revolution 2.0.4-pl2 . If you upgraded to Revolution 2.0.4-pl in the 12 hours since it was released we apologize for the issue but if you may require the use of Resource Groups you will need to update again. As previously mentioned this is not a serious issue if you don’t use Resource Groups in revolution and you may upgrade at your leisure.
