Since this version includes security fixes, it is highly recommended to update to this version ASAP !

See the Changelog for more details.

IMPORTANT NOTE:
-----------------------------------
Due to changes related to security, it might happen that in one or two modules saving of the Permissions in Admin might not work. We are finalizing the Basic Module Pack, where all modules have been tested on XOOPS 2.5.6. Please check the News on XOOPS Website for a special announcement about the updated modules, or ask on the XOOPS Forums.
Or you can read more detailed information about how to fix it yourself in /docs folder in the file: "fixing_permissions.txt"

Please post and discuss all issues related to this release in this Forum thread

We also need help with Translations using Transifex

System requirements
-----------------------------------

Minimum PHP Version: 5.3.7

Please note: the fact that the XOOPS Core runs correctly on PHP 5.5.x, doesn't mean that all your modules will run correctly, therefore you'll need to test them first.

The recently released modules that qualify for our Basic Module Pack , are all tested on PHP 5.5.x, and they should run just fine. We're also in process of updating the Basic Module Pack specifically for XOOPS 2.5.7

If you encounter any issues, please let us know in our Support Forums, in this specific thread dedicated to XOOPS 2.5.7

Viva XOOPS!
