Features that we have added so far:
- Completely new Default theme with sidebar, Joomla! module positions, new icons, and more!
- Added new global group for project members
- Added new global access level for project members
- Added import existing Joomla! users from the Users section
- Added option to add people to a project via drop-down menu
- Added option to assign multiple persons to the same task
- Added "Home" menu button when hiding the Joomla! template
- Added "Logout" menu button when hiding the Joomla! template
- Changed URL/mechanics to hide the Joomla! template
- Added "Edit" button to all panels
- Added option to overwrite the panel title
- Added new section "Time Tracking" (still very raw and unfinished)
- Added option to use Content Editor for comments
- Added version info at the bottom of the page
- Added ability to browse all project pages (tasks etc.) even when not logged in if the project is set to public
- Projectfork core optimizations
- And a few more things that I can't remember right now :)
Note: Themes will need to be updated for 2.1, since we've optimized all layouts. We'll be updating the ProjectPraise and Goggles themes, and working on some brand new ones.
Beta participation
This is a public beta and everyone is welcome to participate. All you have to do is download the package and install it on Joomla testing site (a site that is just for testing Projectfork). We would like you take a few notes on:
- Things that you like very much and what you think is improved over 2.0
- Design issues
- Bugs, broken functions
PF Community
We're also putting together a PF Community site where everyone will be to find Projectfork programmers, post jobs, share tactics, and more!
You can leave your notes here by posting a comment, or by posting in the 2.1 beta forum (preferred).
What's next?
While we solve 2.1 bugs, we're planning lots of great new Projectfork extensions to make project management in Joomla! even better! We're also putting together a support offering, and an extension package that will include all our PF extensions.
