At long last, osCMax v2.0 RC1 is ready for download! It has been a long time coming, but the day has finally arrived.

osCMax v2.0 is a major upgrade to the osCMax codebase in general. Almost every mod has been upgraded. Almost every reported bug or issue has been fixed. This new release candidate is packed with features that will make life easier for any shop owner... Some highlights :

--Finally, a crossbrowser compatible wysiwyg editor! The new FCKeditor is compatible with Netscape, FireFox, Mozilla, and IE.

--All static pages are now editable through the wysiwyg admin editor. The shipping, privacy, terms and conditions, as well as the main page content are now editable through the admin. No code to edit anymore!

--Complete admin control over product display options. No code to edit anymore!

--SEO URL's is now included - no more Search engine hostile urls.

--Infobox Admin - Complete control over all the side boxes. Turn them on or off. Switch sides, all with a mouse click. No more code to edit!

--BTS v1.5f - The latest Basic Template Structure. All security issues have been addressed. All redundant files have been removed. It has a much smaller footprint than the older BTS system, and is a lot faster now.
