The Coppermine dev team announces the release of cpg1.4.9.

Upgrade instructions are included in the package (refer to the index file inside the docs folder).
Languages:The new package contains all language files that existed up till now:
Albanian, Basque, Brazilian Portuguese, Bulgarian, Chinese (Big5 and GB), Czech, Danish, Dutch, English (US and GB), Finnish, French, Galician, Georgian, German (informal "Du" and formal "Sie"), Greek, Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Persian, Polish, Portuguese, Russian, Slovak, Slovenian, Spanish, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian

http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/coppermine/cpg1.4.9.zip?downloadScope:The maintenance release cpg1.4.9 of course contains all previous fixes of the 1.4.x-series as well as several minor issues that have been reported on the bugs board. Please review the changelog that comes with the package for details.
Deprecated versions:For those running 1.3.x galleries, you are strongly recommended to upgrade to 1.4.9. The documentation clearly describes the upgrade from 1.3.x to 1.4.9 (
link), including converting any custom 1.3 themes to the improved 1.4 theme system. Most of the popular themes have already been converted and are browseable in the
demo. Many of the mods for 1.3 have been rewritten for 1.4, with some of them being rewritten into plugins. The new plugins system allows you to modify Coppermine without hacking the core scripts, so upgrades are very easy.
We remind you that the Coppermine 1.3 series will soon go *unsupported* and only security vulnerabilities will be addressed in this series.
Once again, please consider upgrading. The dev team and all the supporters and contributors are working hard to make sure the latest Coppermine version is the greatest one and at the same time is completely comfortable for 1.3 users. Test drive the current version in the
demo and take the time to upgrade your 1.3.x gallery.
Asking for support:Please do not clutter this announcement thread with individual support requests or similar, only replies that deal with the actual
release are allowed - all unrelated replies will be deleted without further notice.
If you have issues with upgrading your coppermine install, post on the
cpg1.4.x upgrading sub-board (
after having read the
docs and after having
searched the board).
All announcement threads have been cluttered with individual support requests in the past and I'm not going to tolerate this any longer, so make sure that you have really understood my point before replying here: all
individual support requests that get posted as a reply to this thread will be deleted and the user who posted it will be banned.
