I would like to take a moment to recognize someone who we all owe a big round of applause to.  I was deeply concerned when the development of RavenNuke stopped. But then one day someone came along and picked it back up, brushed it off, and  jump started the development once again. It's amazing what this guy has done with it. RavenNuke is back with the release of 2.52 PHP7 version and we all owe a big thanks to neralex for his dedication to this project.  I am now seeing a lot of old timers coming back to the forums and showing a renewed interest.  I'm sure with time RavenNuke CMS will be hot once again.

It's been a while, but we haven't stopped looking for ways to help websites expand their reach and operate more efficiently.  Since member management continues to be a challenge, especially with the continued onslaught of spammers, the current focus for nukeSEO is on these areas.

Your feedback in the forums will help determine priorities.  Please add comments here, where you'll also find more detailed discussion on these topics.

Currently, we're looking to:

• RNYA 
  • Replace the grid, search and maintenance functions with the DataTables class used in nukeSPAM
  • Add functions to delete users without notification and add domain / subdomain to the blocked mail domains list
  • Share blocked mail domains list across sites
  • Add tools for removing members who never logged in, identifying members from blocked domains
• nukeSPAM
  • Integrate nukeSPAM with RNYA for simplified domain blocking (e.g. add this domain / subdomain to the blocked domains list)
  • Integrate nukeSPAM with additional blocking tools for:
    • Email validation services
    • Disposable Email Address lists / services
  • Auto-block domains / subdomains with multiple offenders

Please let us know what you think at RavenPHPScripts.com.

You may have seen my news story earlier about RavenNuke(tm) banners. Well, after messing around with phpBB3 and losing all of the themes I had for display and download there (I have Backups) I have decided to leave that piece of OpenSource alone and use RN exclusively.

I set up the downloads area and have loaded the RN banners and the Renewal series of themes. I have 2 more categories of themes to upload then I will be able to design some more themes.

Please visit my website at http://www.papamikecreations.net to view and/or download a banner or theme. I do apologize to the people who had registered through BB3 when I was using it and hope that they will register again and take advantage of all the things I will have for download and numerous other things.

Whether you download one of my banners, use one of Raven's buttons or design your own, please display it on your website and let everyone see who you support.

The guys who work on the most secure CMS on the Internet deserve our support for all of their hard work and Then for letting all of us download RavenNuke(tm) for free. It's a deal that can't be beat!

Thanks,

Have a nice day!

I have been around the technology field for 30+ years as a Network Engineer. I retired in 1996 and started a hobby on the web. Since that time I had several different web host.

Recently I was hosted on a server running a unmanaged VPS. One day out of the blue all of the websites I manage were down. I was told that the servers drive was corrupt and that the data was lost permanently. I had backups of all my data but the aggravation it caused me was too much.

So I started the process of searching for a new host when I thought of Raven's Web Hosting. I contacted Raven and in just a small amount of time I had a new host. He was great in getting me ready to go on-line. Professional courteous service has won me over. The fact that I felt I was taking care of the folks who depend on me while at the same time supporting the community. Look around, when you are truly a member of Raven's community he has everything to offer all members. Need good web hosting, it's there, how 'bout knowledgeable friendly people to answer your questions on a forum that covers just about everything. Want to keep informed on the important news about things that affect the security of applications, it's here too.

Excellent prices, good relationships with his clients and members has won me over. I can safely say that I will be a client for the long haul.

Let's all support the community that gives us so much. To design and code a secure feature rich CMS is a daunting task, but the talented RavenNuke(tm) team is highly qualified to reach their goals.

Thanks for taking the time to read this.
