I’m guessing that I am not the only one wondering about this - so here goes:  what’s the word on ecommerce?  Will there be a module ready for 2.0 when it debuts?

Very impressive! You can see there’s a huge amount of effort and attention to detail going into it. Accessories sounds really cool - that opens lots of avenues.

here’s to sneak preview 2!

Rick my friend, what software did you use for the screencast? (that highlighting thingie is sexy)

Its a combo of ScreenFlow and Mousepose.

I just bought Mousepose after seeing your screencast. It will be very helpful for tutorial screencasts for my clients.

With the new sections at the bottom of the new CP I can embed my client tutorials. I’m so very happy about this as I was building individual pages into the client site before but now it makes life easier. Especially with member group handling!

I use iShowU for my screencasts but I might look into ScreenFlow based on some of the features it has over iShowU.

PS. Great screencast and well done on the jQuery effects!

One question I’d love to know is, will EE 2 support multiple field groups per weblog?

Well… is there any way to see this preview under Windows XP?  I tried five different browsers and so far no lack. Is there any link to download this preview or should I buy MAC to see it?  raspberry

You need Quicktime or a Quicktime plugin for your browser to view it.

@alex7 - There’s a right-click to save to desktop link underneath the video on the video pop-up.

The video wouldn’t play for me in Firefox on a Mac btw so I had to download it.

That is a GREAT preview! Nice job. I’m so pleased with all the interface improvements - and they look like BIG improvements on the current control panel.

I’ve got them and don’t have any problems. Cannot see only this particular preview.

Ya…there’s some subtle little things going on in there that weren’t just by happenstance, they had to be planned and thought out in advance. Very well done. The best you’ve done so far. Congrats!!!

Edit-add: Do you really need Mousepose if you are using ScreenFlow?

I’ve only just begun using ScreenFlow, so I’m not yet familiar with its keyframe highlighting features.  Mousepose is perfect for live recordings, though, as it’s a single keypress while I’m narrating to help make sure you’re looking where I want you to look. :-D

Absolutely stunning. Can’t wait to see the secret goodies. I’m stilling hoping for a true Event-Calendar and true multilingual content support. Yes Yes, I know, everyone needs something else wink

But for the rest, excellent job you did there. Accessories and jquery effects are very useful enhancements. Love the revamped CP panel, especially the full screen editing mode. Kudos to Veerle Peters for the new cp template.

Ok, I guess I will try this again.

The new control panel is great, I think most of us agree.  But I also know that a lot of us have been waiting with baited breath for 2.0, not for a new control panel, but because (we hope) it will come with a full scale ecommerce module.  This has to be the most requested feature, at least from what I’ve seen.  Will there be a module ready for 2.0 when it comes out?

I’m a bit surprised too that no one else has mentioned this in the various 2.0-related threads I’ve read through this week. Given the number of threads about a full e-commerce module (and e-commerce alternatives while we wait), I would agree that it’s the most requested feature… Even Rick mentioned it in this thread:

If I could magically make a commerce system appear I would.  It’s been the single most requested item, and one that I believe will be very successful for us.

That said, given EL’s history/policy on answering “when” questions, I don’t necessarily expect a definite answer, but there’s no inkling of it whatsoever from the community.

Actually, it was mentioned during the SXSW preview panel, as alluded to here.
