CFFM 1.30 Now Available
Coldfusion File Manager

 Project Page for CFFM:  http://www.opensourcecf.com/cffm

CFFM 1.30 is now available for download
 
Compared to the previous r elease, CFFM 1.3 has been fully "ajaxified", includes lots of jQuery stuff, and some plugins like imgPreview and uploadify (a flash/javascript multi-file uploader).
 
CFFM 1.3 also can be used as a filebrowser plugin for FCKeditor 2.x and the new CKEditor 3.x, as well as TinyMCE.  If you'd like to integrate it into another file manager, please let me know.

Coldfusion file browser plugin for CKeditor

 In case you were not aware, the new version of FCKEditor is now called CKEditor.  It was just released about a week ago, and I discovered that it does not yet come with a filebrowser of any kind, but you can PURCHASE his commercial product called CKFinder.

However, with a bit of work, I've managed to make CFFM integrate nicely into the new CKEditor.  Please see the editor integration demo for more details, and view the README.TXT for installation and integration instructions.

This feature is available in CFFM 1.3 RC2.

CfinNC Registration Is Now Open!
CFinNC: A Coldfusion, Flex, and Air Conference.

 Registration for CFinNC is now open! CFinNC is a free web development conference held in Raleigh, North Carolina during the weekend of October 17th and 18th with an International line-up of speakers presenting on timely and relevant topics on web development. Thanks to the generosity of our sponsors and the creativity of the planning committee, registration for the event will be free and includes entry to the weekend event and to all presentations. 

In order to keep the event free we have removed some hard costs and some benefits you normally get from paid-registration events.   

Please be aware of the following:

 

1) You are responsible for paying for lunch for both days. We have enlisted the services of a local caterer and will be providing lunch each day for $10/day. This includes a sandwich, chips and drink. Please bring cash the day of the event! We will not be able to process credit cards! 

 

2) Limited Edition, Collectible CFinNC conference t-shirts will be available for purchase for $15 with any proceeds going to offset costs and possibly sponsor a planning committee dinner (if we sell them all). 

Lunch and shirt purchase is completely optional.  You may indicate if you would like to purchase lunch and/or a t-shirt on the registration form.

 

For more information, please check the CFinNC website at:  http://www.cfinnc.com.

CFFM 1.3 Release Candidate
Coldfusion File Manager

I've been working on making CFFM cooler, with jquery and a few plugins (imgPreview, uploadify)... It all still runs on "older" versions of CF (tested on CFMX7, 8, and 9)
It's fully ajaxified... the main document is never reloaded.

www.opensourcecf.com/cffm/demo/cffm.cfm

I haven't "released" this version yet but if you desire to put it on your own server for testing, you can get it out of subversion (http://svn.riaforge.org/cffm)
If you play on the demo, make a directory of your own and upload some files, otherwise you may experience unexpected behavior from you and someone else doing stuff to the same file =) The demo also resets its file structure every 30 minutes so if you're working in your own directory and suddenly its gone, that's why :)
I appreciate any and all feedback and suggestions for improvement.

CFFM 1.21 Releaseed

  Project Page for CFFM:  http://www.opensourcecf.com/cffm

So I sucked it up and added a few more features to CFFM last night.

  • CFFM now defaults to using CFIMAGE on Coldfusion 8 and above.  This means a couple of image manipulation features are gone since CFIMAGE doesn't seem to have the ability to flip horizontal, flip vertical, or crop an image.  Though I honestly didn't really dig that far into the cfscript options for CFIMAGE, I do know that such options were not available via the cfimage tag.  If you want to use something else like ImageCR3, or Blue Dragon's CFIMAGE, you could write your own image object that wraps the component in question.  For examples, see ImageObject_imagecfc.cfc and ImageObject_cfimage.cfc.
  • Because of the CFIMAGE integration, CFFM's image manipulation features are now enabled when using the RAM:// drive in Coldfusion 9.

Translations - If you have done a translation for CFFM, please let me know, I'd like to include it with the distribution.

CFFM 1.20 Released

 Project Page for CFFM:  http://www.opensourcecf.com/cffm

CFFM 1.2 is finally here.  I fixed all open bugs, and tested it on CF9 Beta on Windows, OpenBD 1.1 on Windows, and CF7 on Linux.

I also did a preliminary test of using the the Virtual File System (VFS) in Coldfusion 9.  It actually works for file management but since the files aren't in the web root they can't actually be accessed.  I suppose that'll have to wait until 1.21!

CFFM 2.0 - Coming Soon
Alright, it's currently vaporware. But I'm actually gonna do a new version of CFFM, very soon. It's still a damn fine file manager and I think a spot nicer than the one that comes with fckeditor. Also, someone at adobe suggested with a few changes it could be used as a file manager for the new virtual file system in Coldfusion 9. That sounds fun.

The initial release will be programmed for Coldfusion 8 and beyond. It'll make use of CFIMAGE probably so maybe I'll add a flag to disable those features if the server is not running CF8.

It also may end up using a lot of jquery. We'll see!
