Hey All,

We have a first beta of CMS Builder v2.12, beta list members will get a download link shortly.

This version is a maintenance release that also adds the ability to open text links in an inline iframe.
For programmers there are new plugin hooks to modify list pages and a new getRecordsCustom() function.


Here is the changelog:

MINOR CHANGES
- Text Link Sections: Added new option to open links in "inline iframe"
- Plugins: Added new filters: listHeader_checkAll and listPage_footer
- Programmers: Added new viewer function getRecordsCustom() for getting records with custom SQL queries
- Compatibility: Fixed document root check to deal with restrictive open_basedirs

BUG FIXES
- Input Validation: "Max Length" no longer counts <br/> tag length towards character limit for textboxes
- Accounts: Changing your password no longer logs you out when password encryption is on
- Plugins: "Developer's Plugin Hook List" list no longer excludes hooks called in double-quoted strings
- Code Generator: Single Record Sections now automatically ignore search queries (caused errors when using includes)
- Misc Code and other minor improvements

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.

Thanks,
Robin

Would someone be willing to post a super simple demo on how to use these plugin hooks? I would like to try these and see how they work, but I am not sure how to get started.

Hi Chris,

a couple years ago Chris at IT built a "related records" function plugin as a precursor to making it part of the CMSB core code. Did the full inclusion of his code make it into the release versions? If so, which one did it start with? If not, then is it going to? Thanks!

Terry, do you have a link to the code you are talking about? We have something called Related Records, but I think it may not be the same thing.

Hi Terry,

No, the was experimental and isn't going into CMSB, but we're continuing to try out different ways of making those sorts of things easy. Still haven't found one that we're totally happy with yet.
