Notice: CMSB v2.02 Released (Multi-File Uploads & Viewer Enhancements)

We've just released v2.02 with multi-file uploading and viewer enhancements.

If you've ever had to upload multiple files you know it's typically Browse... Upload... Browse... Upload... Browse... Upload.... This is because HTML forms don't support multi-file uploads. But with the new flash upload component we're using it's easier and faster then ever before (and completely seamless to the end-user).

For viewers, you can now specify sort ordering in the url with orderBy=fieldname or fieldname DESC. This makes it very easy to sort a viewer list page multiple ways (eg: by price, product name, etc). We've written custom code to do this many times, now you can just create a link to ?orderBy=price DESC to let the user sort viewer lists the way they want.

And if you have a local development server and you've ever had to manage two or more CMSB installs of the same site (one local, one live) you know what a hassle that can be. We've now made it easy by supporting custom settings files for dev domains, such as: /data/settings.localhost.php. This let's you have different mysql details, upload paths, etc for each environment. (Tip: Always use the custom file for dev, and the default file for live, so a future domain name change doesn't break your live site).
