Keith Killilea: News / Wiccle Community Builder 2.0 Released

Keith Killilea: News / Wiccle Community Builder 2.0 Released:
The New Wiccle Community Builder has arrived at version 2.0!

Packed with everything you need to build Community Websites, Social Network Websites, Dating Websites, Friendship Websites, Music Websites, Video Websites, Photo Websites, Forum Websites, Group Websites, Audio & Video Chat Websites and much more.

By arriving at the 2.0 stage and everything we packed into this version, you now can get a taste of what Wiccle is really all about. It has taken a long road with many twists and turns during this journey but now we have completed the polished stage of the current foundation design. The following updates to be released during this 2.x stage will include plenty of eye-candy add-ons, major core improvements and new features never seen before in any other system or website.


So what's in this new version? I will list the key new add-ons below but not everything as thousands of code files have been updated with small updates to major features.

Wiccle Community Builder 2.0 Highlights



  • Added Forums, Chat, Notebox, Audio, Polls and Downloads modules

  • Added Video Uploader System

  • Added Audio / Video Chat System

  • Added IM System

  • Added Facebook Connect Module

  • Added Banner Ads Module

  • Updated templating system

  • Core improvements

  • Added IRC Chat System

  • Added Payment Usergroups and controls

  • Updated Members Module & Members Profile Features

  • Added RSS Player

  • Updated Wiccle Builder

  • Added New Builder Formats & Image pop-up viewer

  • Added Wiccle Media Server based on Flex

  • Added Mass Mailer / Newsletter

  • Updated Main Menu Builder with sub-menus & new buttons

  • Added Main Menu control system

  • Updated Newsfeeds

  • Updated License Banner System

  • Removed misc functions & non-working features.

In total there is now 17 Modules in Wiccle Community Builder. The License Banner system has changed, we have removed the 15 day trial period before you need a Free License - you do not need a Free License any more for WCB to work. However you can still grab a Free License which will give you extra benefits and joining our community here at Fusion on Wiccle.com!

We want you to focus on building your website with WCB, so when you log in as Admin you will no longer see the Wiccle Ads Banner. This will give you the freedom to make sure your designs & new website looks the business before you launch it. If you want to remove the banner ads, simply buy the life-time license at only $99 Dollars and get even more benefits to boot!

The Audio Video Chat Module does require a Media Server, we will shortly release the Wiccle Media Server for download where you can host it on your own servers. You will need a VPS package from your hosting company for this media server but for members who are on shared-hosting we will be setting up a limited free Wiccle Media Server that you can use. We will also be working with our Hosting Partners to give Wiccle members the best deals on VPS servers or Hosted Media Servers in the coming weeks.

You will notice alot of small changes in Wiccle from the front end builders to Admin CP to the code base. We have now completed the final cross-over of Wiccle Web Builder modules to Wiccle Community Builder as well.

The Future of WCB 2.x


As mentioned above, we are now moving forward with future updates of WCB in the 2.x stages to bring you lots of goodies, improvements across modules + Core and give you advantages over your competitors. This is our foundation version, now we enter our development phases of taking WCB to new heights of featured packed modules, full HTML5, new template system, improved modular system, improved SEO Engine, new community modules, social media add-ons & API's, supporting Mobile Apps, supporting widgets, one click site wizards, improved builders, full touch screen controls, complete cross-platform support, improved database stuctures & supporting other databases, and plenty of add-ons! This all within the 2.x generation of WCB + more.



Thank You Wiccle Team!


I would like to say a big thank you to the programmers of Wiccle who both have done great work on this 2.0 version but for the two main guys, please give them your kudos.

Lead Programmer - Troy Martin & System Programmer - Leszek Kozlowski.

With this special release of moving from 1.x generation to 2.x generation, I also want to give a big shout out and thanks to all the Wiccle staff in their various roles in the company, you guys rule. However I need to say a thank you for the man who helped to bring the 1.x generations around in the first place in their prototype format, great work, inspired visions, crunch master, and all around talent, who is Markus Loponen.



We are now here at 2.0, download it, install it and play with it. If you want to test it out before downloading, then in the coming days we will have a new demo site where you can check it all out in the same fashion as the Wiccle Web Builder demo over at: demo.wiccle.com

Prepare for future updates of WCB 2.x, we will be raising the bar far beyond anything that has been done before and by all others. Enjoy this new release and I hope it serves you & your members well for a long time.

CEO
