ExpressionEngine updates to 1.6 27Jun07

Just when you think EE couldn’t get any better, Ellislab releases ExpressionEngine 1.6. And during my vacation I might add, so I had some catching up to do, which is fine .

Cool new features off course such as the Multiple Sites Manager and the integrated Pages module, you can read about those here.

The Multiple Sites Manager is a super addition to EE, can’t wait to use it on a new project. The Pages module I have to check out soon to implement it in this site. Using Mark’s version on a site recently has proven to be an excellent experience, although it is a little hard to understand it at first (this article helps). I hope the new module is as good as Mark’s, or is it the exact same module as Mark’s? I dunno…

There is still a bug in EE 1.6, which was also in 1.5.2. Paul fixed a security issue a couple of weeks ago but that update is not working well for me, I cannot upload pictures since. I get a message stating my uploaded file has invalid content for it’s MIME type. I fixed the problem in 1.5.2 by putting back the old core.upload.php file but now that we have 1.6 I want to resolve the issue.

Let’s see what the forums say about this problem…
