What is Craft ?

Craft is A very versatile content management system designed to run on PHP and MySQL setups, ideal for creating custom structured websites .

Craft is a relatively new CMS built on top of popular PHP technologies like the Yii framework and the Twig templating engine.The entire Craft CMS was developed to help programmers with projects that don’t follow classic website patterns and need to provide an administrative backend for their tools.Craft enables them to use a combination of fields, globals and assets to build a custom data type to manage content with.This gives them complete control over that data type (the equivalent of a custom post type from WordPress), allowing them to manage everything from news, to portfolio items, to images and so on.Besides the basic Craft system that comes with the download, pre-built Craft setup packages for various scenarios are also available for various fees. Check them out on Craft’s packages page.

This is changelog for Craft version 2.4.2684 / 3.0.2663 Developer Preview :

  • Relational fields’ Selection Label settings can now be translated using Craft’s static translation support.
  • Fixed a bug that broke non-query-string-based pagination links.
  • Fixed a bug that resulted in some assets losing their file content.
  • Fixed an error that occurred when using the {% includecss %}, {% includehirescss %}, and {% includejs %} tags as tag pairs could result in a Twig error when used outside of {% block %} tags.
