The final AutoTheme 1.7 has been released!

AutoTheme is the premier HTML Theme System for ALL of the Nukes! An extensive and simple Extras (plug-in) architecture is in place and being made us of in 1.7.

This release squashes all known bugs and is compatible with PHP 5.x.

AutoTheme 1.7 has been tested with the latest versions of MD-Pro, PostNuke, PHP-Nuke and CPG-Nuke. eNvo support is for the GPL versions of eNvo (if anyone is still using this CMS).

This final release provides an online HTML editor, full page caching to speed your site up to 10 times, plus much more!

As a bonus, after purchasing, email me and I will send you the new AutoConvert module that converts any PostNuke or PHP-Nuke theme into an HTML AutoTheme. Yes, PHP-Nuke themes also!

Read on to see the many Extras that come with AutoTheme 1.7, and there are many more coming this month only for 1.7 users! These Extras replace many modules and do many things that were until now, not provided by any module or hack! Some in the works are Group specific themes and a mainteneance mode page...

Get it, read about it, see screen shots HERE!

Themes on a Date
This Extra allows you to set dates for when specific themes are displayed. The most recent date that has already occurred is used.

Theme Time
This Extra allows you to set times of day for when specific themes are displayed. The most recent time that has already occurred is used.

Theme Information
This Extra allows you to enter information about the theme and optionally have it included in the HTML source of all pages that use this theme.

Head Content
This Extra allows you to specify a title, meta keywords and meta description for each page on your site, thus improving search engine indexing and rankings. The current CMSs normally use the same title, keywords and description for each page.

AutoPrint
This Extra allows you to set a theme that will be used for a printer friendly page. A sample AutoPrint theme is included. You can display a link to the printer friendly page by including in your template.

AutoURLs
This Extra requires the Apache web server with mod_rewrite enabled and one of the included .htaccess files present in your CMS root directory. AutoURLs converts URLs on your site into shorter URLs that are friendlier and search engine optimized.

Block Titles
This Extra when enabled, will automatically include images to use as block titles and allows you to use language defines as titles for blocks.
If you have used a language define as the block title and you have defined that in a language file, then the translation will be used.

Entry Page
This Extra allows you to use a template and set an entry that the designated types of visitors will see on their initial visit. The template will first be looked for in “themes/YOURTHEME/templates/” and then if not found it will use the one in “modules/AutoTheme/templates/”.

AutoTheme Admin Bar
This Extra displays an Administration Bar at the top of your site, viewable only to Administrators. This bar has links to display different AutoTheme configuration settings and edit the current configuration and template.

RTL Languages
For now, this area lets you define what languages should cause the theme to display Right-To-Left (RTL). Some languages, Arabic, Farsi and Hebrew (that are already added here) read from right to left, and AutoTheme will adjust the theme accordingly when the site language or the user’s selected language is one of these. The text is printed RTL and other objects (tables, images, form inputs, etc.) are aligned to the right and all controls including the scroll bar are positioned on the left.

Shortcut Icon
This Extra automatically includes a shortcut or favorite icon for your site. This icon must be a 16x16 favicon.ico file of type .ico located in your CMS root directory.

Module Styles
This Extra wraps the module’s output in a div tag with the following class and id that can be used in your style sheets to style the output:


Render Time
This Extra adds to the footer of each page, the time that it took to render the page in seconds.

Style Fixes
For now, this Extra adds styles that help the pages display the same in most browsers. This Extra may go away and it is advisable to use styles in your style sheets instead.
