Dolphin 7 (Hookie). Alpha Build 17. Downloadable 

Meet the new Hookie Alpha Build 17 today. The most interesting and important features of this build are the new design and functionality of the Administration panel.

Let's look what changes and features we have overall in this Build.

- New Admin design and functionality. Administration panel with all its modules are rewritten completely.

- Administrator is now a regular user with admin privileges.

- Tags section is added to the main menu, so now you may browse tags.

- Cron jobs system. You can now manage them through the Admin panel.

- Files sharing module is added.

- Store module is added.

- Ajax chat module is added. You can chat with people from the member toolbar while browsing the site.

- New Ajax Shoutbox module is added replacing the old Flash one.

- Polls module is completely rewritten.

- Events module is improved. Browse through each event to see the participants, photos and videos of the venue.

- Forum module is integrated into Events and Store, so every particular event or store can be discussed in it's own area.

Browse Source and Install. Starting from today you are free to download the development version of Dolphin 7 (Hookie) Alpha from public SVN.

BUT, since it turned out that the download from SVN is a little bit complicated for usual users we prepared a separate archive of the latest revision (revision date 12.06.09) from SVN.

Therefore, you can take advantage of this and install it to try out the Administration panel. Before you install it, we have some important recommendations and notes for you:

1) DO NOT INSTALL OR UPGRADE YOUR LIVE SITES WITH THIS VERSION. NO FURTHER IN-BETWEEN UPGRADES OF THIS VERSION WILL BE AVAILABLE.

2) It is a development version. Therefore, there can be errors during the installation process or some modules are completely non-operational, etc.

3) SVN is updated on a regular basis several times a day. So, if there are errors in your installation you may wait and download a newer version some hours later.

4) There is no development and therefore no SVN updates during weekends.

Overall, much to see and touch here and there in this build.


UPD: This Dolphin 7 Hookie Alpha is for general preview of the Administration panel only.

Bug reports are not accepted at the moment. We will accept bug reports when the Beta version is out.

I would love to download and install this Alpha, but it is not in my stars right now, since I am currently working on three Dolphin sites for clients.

Will this be made available online in a public server so we can all test it?

OR, is there anyone who would let me poke around their install? Preferably one that has RMS enabled? I would truly love to get in and look. No need to tinker right now.

Thanks!

ok, has anyone installed yet? I am finding that when following the install.txt file for permission changes that files are not found that are included in the chmod text, also chmod text does not include all the files that need to be changed... Anyone from boonex here that would care to comment, and or provide the correct perms changes required for ssh

For those that bare interested here are the perms that need to be set for the install, using ssh

Perms Change:

chmod -v 777 ./backup ./cache ./cache_public ./inc ./langs ./groups/gallery ./media/app ./media/images ./media/images/banners ./media/images/blog ./media/images/classifieds ./media/images/membership ./media/images/profile ./media/images/profile_bg ./media/images/promo ./media/images/promo/original ./media/images/sharingImages ./tmp ./groups/orca/classes ./groups/orca/layout ./groups/orca/log ./groups/orca/js ./groups/orca/cachejs ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/CSS ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/HTML ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/Test ./plugins/htmlpurifier/HTMLPurifier/DefinitionCache/Serializer/URI ./flash/modules/board/files ./flash/modules/chat/files ./flash/modules/photo/files ./flash/modules/im/files ./flash/modules/mp3/files ./flash/modules/video/files ./flash/modules/video_comments/files ./flash/modules/global/app/ffmpeg.exe

Perms Reversal:

chmod -v 755 ./inc

Some errors are being experienced and we should expect that, I will post more information as it comes to hand.

Ok I love the new admin panel... But would it be possible to get temp license codes, or let our current one register the flash apps? Or am I the only one having this particular problem? Did i miss something?

Cool :-)
I came home from work, clicked a few times, added a bit of text to my profile, kept on smiling. Went into the admin panel clicked a few times then installed quickly :-) the modules.

Smooth!

Thanks a lot!

Very cool :))
Install was a breeze and everything seems to be working well so far.
The navigation menu builder goes allll the way across my browser lol but looking at everything else.

@superbus the ffmpeg.exe should not be the only file needed for permission sets as i use hostgator on a resellers account.
You will run into some permission issues when installing modules.

Awsome job on the redesign of the admin panel...so easy to navigate and long lists are now collapsible which is nice.
