Elxis 5.0 Uranus

Elxis 5.0 Uranus introduces the fifth generation of Elxis CMS and a full modernization of it. The administration interface redesigned and became compatible to mobile devices and tablets. The new interface is faster, smarter and easier to use. Some times it is fun working with Elxis 5.x, for instance when playing with the new itemstatus form element. Elxis default installation does not use jQuery anymore. It is built on HTML5, CSS3 and pure Javascript. We are very proud of our new version and we encourage you to try it. Below you will find the full change log containing a summary of the things changed in comparison to the previous (4.6) release.
