We are starting the new year with a new release of both clearFusionCMS and clearFusionSHOP, this brings a host of improvements for both users and developers.

Three key improvements across clearFusionCMS and it's modules are the support for multiple CSS frameworks, support for CloudFlare CDN and a new drag and drop editor.

Developers will be delighted to find out that out of the box clearFusionCMS is now aware of fusionCSS 2, Bootstrap 3 and Foundation 5 CSS frameworks, allowing you to build sites for your clients using the framework that you are most comfortable with.

End users with high traffic websites will gain from the support for CloudFlare Content Distribution Network, right from within the manager you can purge the cache of individual files from their network. clearFusionCMS is also smart enough to purge assets from CloudFlare for you so that there's no waiting for caches to expire, performance without pain. This new functionality compliments the recent updates to our web hosting platform allowing one click install of CloudFlare on all hosting packages.

We now include a new editor in clearFusionCMS Pro which allows you to drag layouts into the edit area, now anyone can create expertly formatted pages, need three column block of text or an image with text next to it, just drag the appropriate layouts to the editor and start typing.

Your clients will love the freedom this gives them without the need to learn HTML, CSS or a CSS framework no matter where they are writing content, pages, store products or blogs.
