Rize Nexus BETA Update V1.1

We are happy to announce that we currently have the first stage of the BETA update under development! There will be a total of five stages in this update, after which we will be officially launching our product.

So without delay, here are some of the main features that will be coming shortly:

fConnect

All websites will give the user an option to sign in with their facebook details instead of having to create fresh account details. Profile attributes will be made to match as many as your facebook details as possible.

Snippets Module

This module will allow you to add plain text html or javascript in a separate module so it can be re-used in multiple pages. Some examples of what this may be used for are: Facebook social tools, Twitter, mIRC, challonge and much more! This process is much cleaner and causes fewer problems than using the WYSIWYG which other companies use.

Xbox Live Tag plug-in

This is an add-on for our integrated phpBB forums, allowing users to display their tags in their profiles and posts.

WYSIWYG Additions

There will be three dropdown menus added to the WYSIWYG, including game icons, flags and emotions, making it easier to customise your news posts.

Google Analytics

The ability to add your own Google Analytics account in the control panel will now be available, enabling you to keep track of all of your site statistics for sponsors or just for your own curiosity! Google, Bing and Yahoo validation keys will also be available for the user to input.

Nexus feeds

We will be incorporating our own Twitter and Facebook feeds into the control panel dashboard in place of the login log, which we will use to keep you updated with all the news on themes and updates.
