With the release of KamihayaCMS v1.45.0, we’ve introduced three key improvements focused on:
Enhanced location-based content visualization, improved taxonomy (category) management, and strengthened security.

This version offers especially practical benefits for organizations that manage physical locations or large-scale category structures, such as retailers, media companies, and tourism-related businesses.

1. Mark content with location data directly on Google Maps

KamihayaCMS has long supported embedding Google Maps into content. With v1.45.0, we’ve expanded this functionality to allow map markers to be placed on any specified coordinates. Additionally, users can now view related content in a popup when clicking on a marker.

By enhancing visual presentation through location data, this update significantly improves both content clarity and user satisfaction.

Newly available features

• Content items with geographic coordinates can now be marked directly on Google Maps
• Clicking a marker displays related content in a popup window

Key use cases and benefits

• Retail or event location guidance: Clearly show “where it is” and “what’s there” at a glance
• Multi-branch business location maps: Maintain navigability even as the number of locations grows
• Tourism and venue guides: Deliver intuitive, visual experiences that reduce user drop-off

2. Copy taxonomy structures to streamline category management

Previously, KamihayaCMS supported duplication at the content level (e.g., pages), but not for taxonomies. This release introduces the ability to copy taxonomy structures, making category setup and reuse far more efficient.
 

Key benefits

• Easily reuse category structures with similar configurations
• Ideal for media sites or product databases with a large number of categories
• Reduce the time and effort required for setup, while minimizing human error

By streamlining taxonomy management, organizations can better structure their information—improving site navigability and user experience.

3. Security update to the EU Cookie Compliance module

We have applied a security patch to the EU Cookie Compliance module included in KamihayaCMS, following the disclosure of a known vulnerability.

Key outcomes

• Timely mitigation of potential security risks
• Improved compliance with data protection regulations
• Enhanced safety for both administrators and end users

KamihayaCMS remains committed to providing not only flexible content tools, but also a secure foundation for enterprise-level operations.

A Flexible and Sustainable CMS

KamihayaCMS reflects its core development philosophy by continually improving the product while also contributing to the open-source community.

From resolving minor bugs to enhancing system stability, KamihayaCMS takes a thoughtful and reliable approach—supporting business continuity through a sustainably evolving CMS.
