CiviCRM is helping us serve member-based community organizing groups across the
U.S. to keep better track of their events, fundraising, and membership data. It's helping our community to aim higher in terms of what kind of questions they should be asking and what kind of data they should be collecting. We chose CiviCRM because it's the best all-around tool to do what our groups need, AND because it's open source.

Fuzion

CiviCRM has one of the most active and friendliest communities I have come across. From initial tentative forum posts I was encouraged into engaging more actively through IRC and directly with other groups & individuals and am now happy to count many community members as friends. I recently found an article on the web that said if you post a question about CiviCRM anywhere on the web Lobo will post an answer within a few hours. It often feels like that is true.

One of the most valuable way in which the community supports me is by allowing me to bounce my ideas around and often someone is able to suggest an approach which is better than mine.

BackOfficeThinking

CiviCRM allows us to bring all benefits and capabilities of a large commercial CRM and
donor management system to medium and large non-profits at a fraction of the cost. CiviCRM also allows smaller non-profits to benefit from an integrated solution for donor management, events, bulk email, etc. substantially increasing their effectiveness as compared to managing a variety of nonintegrated software and spreadsheets. Thanks to a strong CiviCRM community, CiviCRM’s functionality continues to advance and CiviCRM’s market continues to grow rapidly.

Hi there

Hi there

 

Sounds great release but did I do something wrong as this is what I am getting on a fresh install:

Strict warning: Non-static method CRM_Core_Block::setTemplateValues() should not be called statically in CRM_Core_Block::setTemplateValues() (line 587 of /var/www/drupal/sites/all/modules/civicrm/CRM/Core/Block.php).

 

Cheers

Civi includes some code that

Permalink Submitted by totten on January 6, 2013 - 12:58

Civi includes some code that originated with older versions of PHP. Although the code still works in newer versions of PHP, new PHP installs may (by default) report warnings about old code. To reduce warnings, some have found one or both of these steps help:

1. In php.ini, set "error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_DEPRECATED & ~E_STRICT".

2. Avoid PHP 5.4 with Civi <=4.2. (The upcoming Civi 4.3 is being actively tested/developed with PHP 5.4.)
