GRS-Bug-Fix-540x179

We are happy to announce the release of our new GEO Radius Search 2.5.1 

With so many pending deadlines and urgency from clients we ended up pushing out our GEO Radius Search 2.5.0 release in a bit of haste and were not able to fully test this as we would have liked. This meant there were a couple unexpected bugs that unfortunately were found by you our customers (Something we prefer not to happen).

Then on top of this Joomla 3.2 came out and it added additional complexity to just adding a quick fix to bugs or issues we found. We are truly sorry this happened and appreciate your patience. However this is really coming together as a powerful engine for Radius Search.

One of the big challenges we discovered with our name change (lables and variables) and rebranding was that the code changes in the new version or GEO Radius Search did not give our customers a clean migration path from ZOOradius to GEO Radius Search. This forced us to release an interim zooradius package with some of the new feature requests we pushed out in the new GEO Radius Search. We will not be supporting the zooradius version moving forward but we will be making this migration script one of our top priorities in the coming weeks to allow for smooth transitions on site upgrades and migrations. We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Version 2.5.1 supports Joomla 2.5 through the latest Joomla 3.2, we fixed all known bugs and added features to support a recent client request. See the list below for highlights.

We want to thank you for your patience and now with this behind us we can focus support for using radius search with JomSocial and perhaps other community related or event driven tools.

GRS-V2.5

GEO Radius Search 2.5 for ZOO is finally here! GEO Radius Search v2.5 is a remarkable solution for delivering dynamic geo mapping, content filtering and search navigation strategies. http://www.georadiussearch.com 

Since our acquisition of the Joomlajob.de portal and ZOO Radius Search project two months ago we have been busy trying to identify how to best serve the Joomla community with new features and improved user experience for the ZOO Radius extension built for Joomla, ZOO and potentially, other 3rd party extensions. We have made great strides in the past to months bringing together the ideas from a great new team.The resuts can be seen at many levels;

  • The leadership of Stefan Brettschneider as program manager and Han Tran as the lead developer have allowed us to transform the code in a way that will better accomodate future development of this tool suite over time.
  • Our QA and Support specialist Erico Lopez have brought new ideas and better ongoing support for the user community.
  • Our branding specialist and creative director Fred Sarhadi have helped us evolve our identity into a fresh and inviting design.

Much thought went into coming up with unified name that better reflects and strengthens our identity while opening the door for future development.  To accomodate this we have changed the name to GEO Radius Search (Formerly ZOO Radius Search found on joomlajob.de) and centralized the core portal and content on a new domain; www.georadoussearch.com

  • Our development process has evolved to use the github system so we can better collaborate on development and offer more flexability for custom cleitn development off of our base code.
  • Our support system is not managed over at www.getjoomlasupport.com so we can best track and manage support requests from our entire team.
  • We have consolidated code from several custom client projects adding over 15 new features. This not only offeres them back to everyone but also reduces maintinance costs for several of our existing clients.

Feature Highlights

If you are a current ZOO Radius customer or new to our GEO Radius Search extension, the most noticable change will be that we have added the capability to Publish and Subscribe modules. You can now configure a Map module or Filter Module and have them display in a Results module. You can have multiple filters associated with on or more results modules accessing them from the same menu ites thus creating dashboards for sorting large collections of content. This new approach allows you much more flexability in leveraging layout positions in your temaplates for unlimited design options. To view a live demo of this feature go http://georadiussearch.com/geo-radius-search/publish-subscribe-feature.

GRS-V2.5C

Another notable feature is the ability to display your results in a paginated responsive grid. This makes it so much better looking right out of the box and if you wish to configure the CSS you can do amazing things with your design.

One of the biggest challenges for us was adding the capability for multiple catagory selection in the filter and search engine. This capability was tested and implimented successfully for an enterprise level client where they have over 600 thousand ZOO items to be sorted.

Over the past few months supporting many hosting providers around the world we discoverd that some ISP's by nature of their configurations do not respond consistantly with Google. Perhaps thans to spamers and hackers but either way we wanted to make sure we cold offer a solution for all of our customers regardless of where they host. To do this we added the ability to chose which api you want to use so even though you will be using the google map you can search coordinace through Mapquest (US Only) or other services. Sometimes you might need our support team to assist you in these cases so we have also added an installation support option to make sure you can be successful with creatng dynamic maps with Radius Search.

We thank you for your business and hope you will enjoy the many new features and enhancments our latest release of GEO Radius Search for ZOO extension.

JOOMLABDAY 8-english-thumbJoomla! has yet another birthday - 8 Years with happiness in the millions.

If you already use Joomla, you know how powerful, cost effective and flexible it is for delivering content online. However, if your new or on the fence it is time to take notice and get excited because Joomla is really growing up and "coming of age" with their new 3.x series of the software.

Before founding CNP Integrations in 2006, I was fortunate to get involved with using Joomla just as it was being spun off of the Mambo project. It is so exciting to see how this whole Joomla community has exploded to build such fascinating technology for so many to grow their businesses and present their messages online. The passion and determination of "Joomies" around the world have come together to build more than just great software though. They have built an entire ecosystem which has become the lively hoods for so many businesses and individuals, been the inspirations of so many great web sites and attracted one of the largest communities of talented developers. This just continues to make a win win for everyone and it also keeps it fun to be part of.

Like any ecosystem that thrives there has to be a need and a demand in the marketplace. The Joomla! project has seemingly struck the right nerve in this matter to the tune of 3.3% of all web sites online with 44.9 million downloads worldwide. Note: In just the last year this marketshare stat is an increase of total web sites online from 2.8% to 3.3%. Given the fact Joomla has achieved so many successes with the entire Joomla organization as completely volunteer driven, I think makes it one of the most unique business models in the history of open source software development. Joomla remains among the top three open source CMS systems and continues to be at the core of so many great online initiatives. These are some fantastic achievements but personally having a little of an inside scoop, I can tell you there are many more groovy things on the way from this bunch.

We are proud to be a part of the Joomla movement and thankful for the opportunities that it has brought our company as well as the great friendships and relationships we have built with so many throughout the Joomla community. This info-graphic is our small gift to Joomla! as it celebrates 8 years of innovation and resilience in a highly competitive marketplace. We hope you will share this and tell the world how great it is to be a part of something that is changing lives, fueling businesses and making a difference in the world for so many.

On behalf of our entire CNP Integrations team we wish Joomla! a Happy B Day, give a big shout out to all our friends and thanks to our many great customers for using Joomla! We are here because of you.

ZOO Radius Search-screenHey folks, we have some exciting news to share with you!

Today, CNP Integrations launched our commercial extensions division through the acquasition deal with the German based Digitologie.de. We are now the proud owners and managers of the ZOO Radius Search extension found at the www.joomlajob.de web site in addition to many other powerful Joomla Extensions. You can learn more about the specifics of our new acquasition by reviewing this press release issued today:  http://www.prweb.com/releases/2013/7/prweb10974870.htm

Let me tell you flat out the ZOO Radius Search is a fantastic extension for geo mapping and search filtering for any ZOO site. It is by far the very best extension of its kind in the marketplace and we are proud to take this on. 

This all started by coincidence when were customizing the ZOO Radius search for use on a couple of our client sites. In the process of implementing these installations we were approached by Digitologie to take over the project. Our team has many great ideas for this extension's roadmap and are planning a new release with some exciting features for early September. Since we are engaging the original developer to join our team as well, we now have the in house expertise to offer custom geo mapping application development for any type of need.
