Long overdue, we have finally managed to release the latest incarnation of the Fuel PHP framework, version 1.8.

Besides the usual improvements, bug fixes, and new functionality, one feature is important to mention straight away: PHP 7 compatibility !

It has been what can only be described as another hectic and difficult year. We've lost contact with new team member Mark for quite a while, and continuing work and health related issues for the remaining team members played havok with any plans we had. I has all meant that again, things haven't moved as fast as they should have.

Good news is that everything seems to slowly pick up a little, we're trying to spend every minute of spare time we have on a redesign of the v2 core code. We have made the descision that Fuel v2 will require PHP 7+. We hope that we can pick up the pace soon, so there is something you can work with, and give your comments on.

As always, don't forget to read on, and check the changelog before you upgrade an existing application. Be sure to checkout the v1.8 Changelog.

Long overdue, we have just released a new maintenance release, v1.7.3.

It has been what can only be described as a hectic year. We've lost a valuable team member ( sorry to see you go Frank! ), we've gained a new valuable team member ( welcome to the team, Mark! ) and lots of work and health related issues for the remaining team members. I has all meant things haven't moved as fast as they should have.

Good news is that everything seems to slowly pick up a little, and our new team member Mark will be working only on Fuel v2 code, so we hope that we can pick up the pace there as well.

This maintanancce release fixes a long list of bugs and ommissions, and added a suprising number of improvements to existing classes. Version 1.7.3. finally uses Composer as the primary means of installing packages, both for the release and the development version. No more submodules, all the core packages are no longer included but installed by Composer.

As always, don't forget to read on, and check the changelog before you upgrade an existing application. Be sure to checkout the v1.7.3 Changelog.

The first v2 alpha is finally here!

It has been quite a busy 7 months since the last release. Unfortunately not all spend on FuelPHP, due to personal circumstances. But there is good news too!

Emlyn West has been added to the core development team. Emlyn was already active working on improving the functionality of the ORM, but will focus mainly on rewriting the ORM for version 2, on Fieldsets and Validation, and on unit testing. And off course we have released a new maintenance release, version 1.7.2.

This release fixes a long list of bugs and ommissions, and added a lot of improvements to existing classes. Version 1.7.2. also introduces Composer as the primary means of installing packages. No more submodules, all the core packages are no longer included but installed by Composer.

It's been busy times lately. We've been trying to get 1.7 out of the door for quite some time, but every time new issues were reported that needed attention. Plus side of this is that all these issues have been addressed, which should make the 1.7 release the most stable yet! In this release, existing functionality has been improved or optimized, and new functionality has been added. This release also addresses two reported security issues, so we urge you to upgrade as soon as possible.

It's been a few months since you've seen something official from us, so it's about time. Here's FuelPHP version 1.6.

This release brings some big changes and improvements, so don't forget to read on, and check the changelog before you upgrade an existing application.

For 1.5, all default configuration values went into the FuelPHP core. This has caused an issue with the security settings, leaving fresh 1.5 installations without security enabled by default.

This hotfix sets the default security settings back to the way they were in 1.4, with both the URI filter and output filter enabled.

With the introduction of the Monolog composer package to replace the Log class, a bug in the autoloader was discovered that caused the autoloader to skip class initialisations after an exception.

This hotfix will fix the autoloader, and will cause the correct exception message to be displayed, instead of the dreaded "Fatal error: Exception thrown without a stack frame in line 0".
