news around LEPTON

NEW Release LEPTON 4.5.0.

Please note: you need PHP 7.2.x to run this update because Twig 3.x needs 7.2 as a minimum (PHP 7.1.x is not supported since 11/2019)

This is a maintaining release of LEPTON which also introduces new Backend-Theme Talgos, a reworked Algos theme that bases on Twig Template Engine (Twig 3.0.0).

The Algos theme (outdated template engine) is set deprecated and will be removed in the next releases. Therefore all Algos users are automatically switched to LEPSem theme and keep in mind, that login url is now LEPTON_URL/backend!

You can switch to Talgos theme using backend function in the /options

LEPTON CMS now requires PHP 7.2 as a minimum, please see PHP page for supported versions.

Furthermore 4.5.0 got some bugfixes and updated addons.

You should read the list of deprecated functions/methods/files in the docs.

If you use deprecated functions/methods/files please rework your addons to make them run with next LEPTON release!
