We’re working on a solution that should hopefully please everyone… stay tuned!

On my website, I have a domain and sub-domain for Staging i.e. pre-production.

I would only be seriously using the CMS for real production use on the main domain. So swapping the CMS from the staging sub-domain to the main domain wouldn’t work as I would need it on the Staging domain for testing.

Maybe allow for one sub-domain with the Studio license and increase the cost if more than one sub-domain?

Yup, we hear you

Sorry for the silly question, but I haven’t been following this topic much and would like to understand better… is the “CMS Online Editor” already available, at least the free one?
Is the “CMS Online Editor” a series of components you have to purchase, or how does it work?

Elements CMS v2 — coming soon!

Hi all, As you may already be aware, Elements CMS v2 is launching soon, and there’s so many amazing updates and new features that I can’t help myself but share some sneak peeks with you. Here’s the main updates coming in v2: Online Editor — browser-based WYSIWYG editing for your CMS content. Free for everyone. The single biggest addition in v2. New components — Comments (with an approval workflow) and Search (live full-text, no external service). Both free. A rewritten core — much clea…

Sorry if this question has already been resolved…

If your website needs two CMS Blogs (one being a traditional blog and the second a portfolio), would the best solution be the “Solo”?

Exactly, you’d have one CMS online editor install, and just add both content folders to the admin area.

You’ll be able to try it out shortly

So you have to buy Studio if you want to use the CMS on a single sub-domain as well as on
your main domain?

[Pegasus]

Yes. Unfortunately, you have to buy a STUDIO license to use ECMS on subdomains as well.

I bought the SINGLE license and would have liked to test ECMS 2.0 on my preview subdomain beforehand. That way, I could have discovered earlier that ECMS 2.0 is not yet usable for the live version.

Instead, I only noticed this after going live and now have to perform a rollback.

Maybe something will still change regarding subdomains for the Single license in the future. That would be nice.

[dan]

Yes, just to confirm, the Studio license allows you to have unlimited sub domains.

Here’s a breakdown of the features for each version:

If you’d like to switch to the Studio version just let us know and we can issue a refund on your Solo purchase.

The Studio license is definitely the one to go for, especially as it has the MCP support that is mind-blowingly good
