We are proud to release the first version of the pre modified Mi-Dia Blog 1.1.0 which is Mi-Dia Package 1.1.0.
As you may have guessed, Mi-Dia Package is a merge of Mi-Dia Blog and Mi-Dia Forum. Allowing web master's to easily run site's rather than just blog's, without the need of manually installing Mi-Dia Forum ontop of Mi-Dia Blog.
No new feature's have been added to this package, therefore the feature's included are that of their respective script versions.
Mi-Dia Package is based on;
- Mi-Dia Blog 1.1.0
- Mi-Dia Forum 1.0.0

We are proud to announce the release of the first version of Mi-Dia Forum.
Mi-Dia Forum was originally written to be an add-on for the blog, to add more functionality and allow web master's to make more of a site than just somewhere to post content. During the development though, we decided to change the path and make the Forum a standalone system which would integrate with the blog. This now means that you can use the forum on its own, or integrate it with an existing blog.
This script contains the following;
- Built Mi-Dia Core 1.0.0 and has the same core features as the blog
- Forum Administration
- Unlimited Forums and Sub-forums
- Staff Permissions including sticky, lock, delete and move
This is the first release, future release's will include more feature's which are associated with forums.
As you can see we are unveiling the new site version and design. This version is a customised Mi-Dia Blog 1.1.0 installation with the Mi-Dia Forum 1.0.0 Modification. Although all the data was saved and restored, this site is much different from its predecessors.
Along with the new site has come a glowingly purple appearance, this was a last moment change and was a big one indeed. We feel it is much better than the design we had planned to release.
Some may be asking where the new release's are though. In short they are not online now. We intend to add the blog, core and forum within the next couple of days. View Full Entry Category: News Comments:0Tags:Site Blog Core Forum NEw
The first version of the forum has now been added to the website.
Although in its early stage, it can handle basic forum requirements but lack's some preferred features such as quoting and signatures. We hope you will enjoy using this new feature. It can be accessed through the Forum link in the header. View Full Entry Category: News Comments:0Tags:Forum
Mi-Dia website is now running on the Beta for the next version of Mi-Dia Blog, this is due to some of the feature's being needed on this site and to test it in a live environment.
As this is just the base install, it will take a few day's to touch up and install the addon's including community forums. We will keep you up to date with all changes. View Full Entry Category: News Comments:0Tags:Site Forum CMS Upgrade
Although not ideal, a phpBB 3 forum has been set up to handle support and communal discussions at http://forum.mi-dia.co.uk.
We would have liked to develope an intergrated forum but the time required to write the forum software is not available to us, hence why we have opted for phpBB. Due to lack of intergration, the forums do not share the same accounts as Mi-Dia Blog Website.
We hope to switch to an intergrated forum system in the future, but this is all we can organise in the short term. View Full Entry Category: News Comments:0Tags:Forum Support phpBB
