Announcing eZ Publish Basic: Revitalizing a Classic Open-Source CMS with Full PHP 8 Compatibility

Wednesday 01 January 2025 1:24:20 am

Introduction

We are thrilled to announce a new project to breathe new life into eZ Publish 2.x, the community-supported CMS that served users for nearly a decade. With PHP’s evolution over the years, the original eZ Publish has faced compatibility issues. But now, 7x is leading an open-source initiative to bring eZ Publish 2 into 2025 with full PHP 8 support.

Introducing: eZ Publish Basic (Version 2.4.0.0-preview1).

“eZ Publish Basic” marks the first step in our mission to modernize this reliable content management system. Our goal is to retain its core functionality while updating the codebase to work seamlessly with PHP 8. By addressing major changes, such as replacing the outdated “register globals” setting, we aim to ensure that developers and community sites can continue to use and customize eZ Publish Basic with confidence.
