I'm happy to announce the release of version 2.0 of our add on product Mobile Kit Pro. This update adds support for unclickable pages that just expand when clicked instead of navigating, and also includes a new skin i7MEDIA-mobile1 provided by our friends at i7MEDIA. 

A lot of people don't realize that mobile skins using Mobile Kit Pro can be styled any way you like just like normal skins. Really the most important feature of Mobile Kit Pro is its MobileMenu control which by default is styled using jQueryUI styles but can be styled using any CSS and CSS classes. The new i7MEDIA skin now included in Mobile Kit Pro provides a good example of this flexibility. If you're not a web designer yourself but would like to have a custom mobile design you should contact i7MEDIA. They have done numerous custom mobile skins for their clients using Mobile Kit Pro and they are experts in all aspects of mojoPortal.

This is a free update for existing customers who already purchased Mobile Kit Pro. Just login to this site using the account that you used to purchase Mobile Kit Pro and you can always download the latest version from your purchase history under the "My Account" link at the top of the page. If you haven't already purchased Mobile Kit Pro now is a good time to make your site mobile phone friendly with Mobile Kit Pro.

I'm happy to announce the availability of our new add on product, Page Manager Pro, available now in the mojoPortal Store starting at $49 for a Single Installation License. If you have a large site hierarchy with hundreds or thousands of pages you may find that the built in PageTree.aspx included in mojoPortal becomes unwieldy, Page Manager Pro is a drop in replacement for PageTree.aspx  designed to address that problem with an easier drag and drop solution for moving pages around in the site hierarchy. We developed this add on based on requests from some of our customers who have very large sites and we have received  a lot of positive feedback so far. You can try it out on our demo site to decide if you like it better than the built in PageTree.

I'm happy to announce the release of mojoPortal 2.4.0.3, available now on our download page.

I'm happy to announce the release of mojoPortal 2.4.0.2, available now on our download page. This is primarily a maintenance release with new versions of the editors and bug fixes, but probably the coolest thing in this release is the ability to drag and drop images into the editors. The images will be resized according to the default reiszing config settings and by default the resized image will link to the full size image. Of course if you need better control over the resizing, you can still use the image toolbar item to open the dialog where you can set the resize options before upoloading.
