There are some exciting changes occurring at ActiveCampaign. We have a number of new updates in the works, KnowledgeBuilder 3.0 is about to be released into beta testing, and we are making some changes in the way you are able to customize all ActiveCampaign products.
The ability to customize ActiveCampaign products is of great concern to us. Customizing sections of the software can be crucial for the product to fit a specific use or direction. Throughout the years we have increased options such as easy branding settings, smarty templates, central language files, a selection of unencoded files, and more. And now….
All future major updates of ActiveCampaign products will be 99% unencoded.
You will be able to modify each and every part of our product. The less than 1% of files that will be encoded only takes care of installing, upgrading, and general licensing. The need for Zend or Ioncube support will remain - but it will not hinder your customization efforts.
We hope this will assist our clients who need custom solutions and are excited to start releasing the major updates of all products with the new 99% unencoded format.
P.S. The first product to be released 99% unencoded will be KnowledgeBuilder 3.0
Sounds like you are going in the right direction, but why keep the installing/upgrading/license info encoded?
There needs to be a balance between our licensing and ability to customize. We are not licensed as open-source nor plan on going that route. With our new changes the customization options quite complete for our clients.
Thanks - thats great news
I have no problem with you keeping the license parts encoded, you need to protect your business.
It will also help us help you find bugs and improve the products.
We look forward to 1-2-all being released open
