Krang v3.00 Release: November 20, 2007
Release Summary
Krang version 3.00 ("Kv3") is a complete rewrite of the CMS user
interface. The new UI is fully AJAX-enabled and redesigned for
greatly enhanced ease of use. In addition, dozens of functional

more robust user experience. Major changes in this release include:
* New AJAX interface and Javascript re-write.
* Completely new skin.
* "Save" button in story editor now truly saves to disk even when
editing a sub-element.
* Automatic slug-generation based on title and story type.
* Any story type may now be a category index (aka, "cover").
About Krang
Krang is an open source web publishing/content management system,
particularly well suited for high volume magazine-style web sites.
Originally developed in 2003 by Primedia, Krang is currently used by
hundreds of well-known web sites including New York Magazine, Motor
Trend, Soap Opera Digest, In-Fisherman, Guns & Ammo, Florida
Sportsman, Game & Fish, Equisearch.com, Power & Motor Yacht, and many
more.
Krang provides a powerful and easy to use story and media editing
environment for website editors, as well as a complete template
development environment for web designers. On the back-end, Perl
programmers can customize Krang to control the data entered in the
story editor and add code to drive the templates to build output.
Krang can be enhanced with add-ons containing new skins and other new
features. Krang easily handles large data sets and can manage multiple
websites in a single installation.
