    Episode 4

    07 Oct 2016

    Another month has passed since our last Kosmos episode and we are super excited to share a ton of hot news, interesting resources and useful links with you.

    Last week, with the release of Kirby 2.4.0 beta, Panel permissions have finally made it into Kirby. And there are tons of other new features, enhancements, and improvements to discover. We are looking forward to your help and feedback to remove any issues before the final release.

    We've also written up two new cookbook recipes (Ajax Form Validation and Ajax Load More) that make use of the new "Content Representations" feature. Try them out!

    Vote for Kirby – CMS Critic Awards

    • We are nominated for Best Small Business CMS at the CMS Critic Awards. We still need to work on the wrong label "small", but we are proud to be nominated anyway. It would be really awesome if you could vote for us. Voting is open until November 1, 2016.

    Kirby Plugins

    Regex Voodoo

    • When regular expressions make you want to pull your hair out, try out Simple Regex Language (SRL). SRL provides a clean and simple query language, and will translate your queries into the corresponding regex expressions for you.

    Themes

    • Anchor by Max Burnside is a multi-purpose Kirby theme. It features JavaScript-powered portfolio filtering and search, as well as a payment gateway via SendOwl, and MailChimp integration.

    Tools

    • Polr is an open-source URL shortening application you can host on your own server. It allows you to brand your URLs and to keep control over your data.

    Powered by Kirby

    Every month, a lot of great Kirby-powered websites are published. Like every month, we selected three, each of them very unique:
