Aptuitiv Studio Upgrades

Recently we have introduced Tags and Tag Clouds into our Blog Add-on. This is a pretty exciting feature that we knew our Blog was lacking from some time now. Well it has finally come up in our development schedule and we think everyone will be pleased with it.

We recently updated our Blog app to make more RSS and Atom feeds available. Previously you could only get a feed on recent posts. We've quadrupled that and now… Read more...

We've recently started launching new websites at a staging URL under our generic domain "mysitestaging.com".  Using the magic of wildcard subdomains we can create a new website at… Read more...

To keep everyone in the loop here are some of the things that we are working on, or will be working on soon in Aptuitiv Studio.

We're pleased to announce another recent addition to the new social networking functionality of Aptuitiv Studio. You can now pull your Twitter feed right into your website and have full style control so that it fits beautifully into your existing design.

Aptuitiv Studio uses TinyMCE as the rich text editor and we recently upgraded it from version 3.2.6 to 3.3.4. For the most part the upgrade was smooth and from an end user perspective the way the editor works stayed fairly consistent. There was however one thing that was significantly different and that is the Paste as Plain Text functionality.

A common request for Aptuitiv Studio has been to integrate user permissions.  We had those capabilities in version 2 and have recently completed it for version 3. If you're on the Plus or higher version of Aptuitiv Studio then you now have user permissions.

The development of Aptuitiv Studio is mostly driven by the needs of our customers and recently a client had some special needs. We were working on a website for one of our partners and the section… Read more...

We recently published a new API for the Calendar that enables you to display a mini calendar grid anywhere on your website. We already have an API to display upcoming events but there wasn't any… Read more...

It's been a while since I wrote a post about the latest developments in Aptuitiv Studio.  It's not for a lack of updates.  We've been pushing out updates nearly everyday.  The large… Read more...

We've recently added support for some new tags in app content templates

When you're viewing your search reports in the Aptuitiv Studio administration you can now export the Recent and Popular search reports as a CSV file.  Simply click on the "Export" link in the upper right.

This morning we pushed out a small update that has a big impact to creating navigation items. 

In the past you had to either type in or paste in the URL for a link.  This often meant that you needed to have visited the page that you want to link to and copied the URL before creating a new navigation menu so that you would know what to link to.  There were other techniques as well, but to sum it up, it was a pain.

We've made it easier.

This morning we pushed out a small update to the Calendar app to make some RSS and Atom feeds available. You can have a feed to show recent events or you can use the feed to show recent events by category.

We recently pushed out a new update to our Forms app that is a part of the core Aptuitiv Studio system.  You can now save form submissions to view or export later.  When you create or edit a form simply set the "Save Form Submissions" value to be "Yes". From that point on all form submissions will automatically be saved in the database so that you can work with this later.

Even though it's been the holiday season lately, we've been hard at work adding new features and improvements to Aptuitiv Studio.

Ok, ok, so I guess this Social Networking stuff is here to stay huh? Correct. Now more then ever it’s important to have your company be discovered. Old marketing techniques like cold calling are going the way of the dinosaur and it’s important that your company is taking advantage of the exposure that can be gained through Social Networking.

We've been doing a lot of work on the search functionality of Aptuitiv Studio and I want to share some of the latest developments.
