  • Double Manager Display Performance in MODx Revolution 2.0.7

    We were on track for the next release to be 2.1 but due to an incredibly wonderful proposal by one of our community members, Andchir to dramatically improve the page refresh and performance of the manager; we just couldn’t help but sharing this significant performance increase with everyone.

    Here are the highlights of Revolution 2.0.7:

    • Reduced load times of manager pages by 50% with tree loading improvements
    • Fixed issues with Image/File TVs and custom paths
    • Various Form Customization fixes due to default values, the content field, and template overriding
    • Fixed rare issue in Extended fields for User

    As always, MODx depends on community members and users asking for new features or improvements, and submitting patches and language updates. Please continue to help make Revolution better by submitting to: bugs.modx.com (bookmark and use it often.)

    Revolution gets better with every release, so download it now to try it or upgrade your existing Revolution sites.
