Hi everyone,

We've just released v2.05 beta 1 (beta list members will get an email with a download link shortly).

The major new feature is a "view" mode for records, so you can examine a record without editing it.

We've also added the ability to specify a default value for list fields, as well as letting you restrict the depth of Category Menus. There have also been various little fixes and improvements. There are more details in changelog.txt in the ZIP file.

If you're not already on the beta tester email list and you'd like to help beta test (you must own at least 1 CMSB license) please email dave@interactivetools.com to be added to the list.

Please post any feedback, questions or bugs you find! Thanks!

Thanks! :)
All the best,
Chris

Hi Chris,

I have an error message with the option View :
Couldn't find field class file: ../lib/fieldtypes/textField.php

Thanks,
Djulia

Hi Chris,

I also have the error can't find class file "lib/fieldtypes/textfield.php". It appears that there is a typo. The actual file is called "textField.php" and if you look at the error the system is looking for a lowercase "f" so it is looking for "textfield.php". I haven't tried to change the name yet to see if it will work, but I will in a little bit and let you know.

Thanks

Chris,

just changed the file name from "textField.php" to "textfield.php" with a lowercase "f" and re-uploaded and it worked so this just appears to be a typo in the code.

Thanks

That also functions for me. :)

Thanks for the report and the fix!

Yes, please rename lib/fieldtypes/textField.php to lib/fieldtypes/textfield.php for the time being if you'd like to try out this beta. This will be fixed in the next beta. :)

P.S. If you have trouble renaming the file, I've found that sometimes you may need to rename it to something completely different first (e.g. textField.php -> foo.php, then foo.php -> textfield.php). I think I've run into this with an FTP client that did a case-insensitive comparison and incorrectly reasoned that both the old and new names were the same, thereby skipping sending the rename command.
All the best,
Chris

Hi Chris,

Think I found a bug. When you save from a single record section editor the blue success message does not appear at the top of the page like it does in the previous versions or like it does from the multi record section editors.

Let me know if you need a jing video of this.

Thanks

Hi Mike,

Great catch, thanks! I'm not able to reproduce it here though, can I take you up on that jing video -- or, better yet, login info (via PM, not here!) please so I can try it myself? :D
All the best,
Chris

Hi flamerz,

Good catch! Thanks, I've fixed this in our dev branch and the next beta will properly evaluate PHP tags on view pages.
All the best,
Chris
