Following on from BETA2, here is BETA3 and it’s ready to download fresh from your dashboards!
Here’s the run-down with lots of improvements and fixes added!
Pulse 5.2BETA3
NEW
- Added css classes to the pagination view helper so pagination links can be styled or hidden by adding a class to the Pulse template
Upgrading from Pulse 3 To Pulse 5 On Non Template Site - Reverse blog option in settings, so newest posts appear last. Useful for an events page or needing oldest first ordering
Reverse blog-function
- Added few more buttons to backend Redactor toolbar: Underline, Undo, Redo. So can now undo easily content changes!
- Added an option in Form Settings to hide the GDPR consent box in forms (for users who don’t need it)
GDPR input field on forms - Added a page cookie agree pop up tag for GDPR! {{gdpr}}
- Global Saving added to Inline Editing! So 1-click save can also clearly save all the edits to make it even easier to use
- Non-Pulse links in the Navigation can now also open in New Window
IMPROVEMENT
- Changed the {{recentposts}} link so the date is not in highlight; just the title next to it. Thanks @RHKay
- Switched off wrapping for images added via Redactor uploader, so can target
tags directly for lightboxes or anything else
How to add a single image lightbox?
Images are reduced to 50% in size - Auto generate the blog url slugs. The user can change this but by pre-filling it saves time in making a blog post with less clicks.
- {{sb_login}} tag now allows for blocks to have different passwords
- {{sb_login}} tag also now has better redirecting on Locked page if password is wrong. There’s a customisable error message and the user stays on the page. sb_login uses “Your Password is Incorrect!” for the error message from the language strings. And can also be amended in the tag:
{{sb_login:“password”:“otp”:“block_name”:“error message”}} - {{sb_login}} with an empty block name leads to locking the page instead of the block.
- Made Drag and Drop with Navigation a little more stable, especially in Chrome on PC
Adding sub-menu - Inline Editing has been improved again! Save button is now green and the color button is added to the toolbar.
Bring Back Green edit boxes - Top level Navigation link now allows for external links - not just in-site links
Problems with the frontend while i am working in the backend
FIXES
- {{recentposts}} tag now works with multi-blogs (sub-blogs). The tag takes two parameters (both optional). The first is the number of posts to show and the second is the blog to use. eg {{recentposts:“10”:“blog/another”}} for a sub blog.
- Bug fix for the image chooser in Redactor and selecting images from sub folders
Problems with the frontend while i am working in the backend - Fixed the bug also in the admin direct image upload.
- Also removed icons, branding and thumbnails from the Redactor image chooser
- Plugged in a fix for the media block on the admin dashboard page. The media block had thumbnails and the gallery file.
- Plugged in a fix for a GeoIP bug.
- JSON error in the top of the page
- Blog {{social}} is now posting complete URL on single posts
Blog {{social}} tags issue - Plugged in a fix for Blog META appearing in first line of Blog content.
- HTML bug fix for media list with bullets on the dashboard
More goodness on the way later on in Autumn!
