iWiccle CMS Community Builder has grown again. To bring you the very best in open-source CMS software, we have syndicated a large amount of new and improved code from Wiccle Web Builder to bring iWiccle to its fourth major incarnation, version 1.3.0.

iWiccle version 1.3.0 has received a minor upgrade to fix a couple of quirks that were spotted post-release. You can download a patch upgrade bundle at the iWiccle download page.
Changes from version 1.3.0 to version 1.3.0.1:
- Multilanguage/complex script fixes in several locations.
- Uploader fix for some situations where uploader forgets caller module and misbehaves.
- Extra "a" displayed on search page results (debugging left-over) removed.
- Default color changed to white. (Change color set in Admin CP > Skin > Pro > Image / CSS folders.)
- "Video" feed added to the main landing page (Site > Home). To update the page, open up the page in the Builder, and import the new layout "wic_layout_site_home_20100926.sql". Otherwise, add a new box and choose: "Post" as content type, "Video" as the source module, "Date (newest first)" as order, "5" as Qty, "Medium" as format, and "Rounded Padded" as base, or customize as you wish.
- In Member Portal > Content page, the left column feeds have a "Global" scope, showing content from everyone. To fix, open up the page in the Builder, and import the new layout "wic_layout_members_content_20100926.sql". Otherwise, click to edit the feeds from Video, Groups and Links, and change scope to "Member"; that will accomplish the same.
- Custom profile "Privacy settings" has been renamed to "Basic Details" (as in 1.21.1) to correct the header in the member profile view. To fix, change "Header" manually at Admin CP > Users > Profile Builder > "Member Privacy" profile.
