Our customer Werk Met Zin (platform of independent 'job' coaches and trainers in Flanders) use a Wordpress site as a front end and CiviCRM as their back end.

Welcome to the second in my blog series 'Performance for Guppies'. If you don't remember the first one that's OK - you're among guppies here. If you do want to refresh your memory it's here - I talked about what database indexes are and some instances when they don't get used.
We are excited to announce the release of 4.4.21 LTS and security releases 4.6.12 and 4.7.1. The latest releases of CiviCRM 4.7 and 4.6 include 2 moderately critical and a non-critical security fixes. A number of other non-security issues have also been fixed in the latest releases.
