Just put out version 4.20 and it's just the kind of release I like: lot's
of little enhancements that extend BoltWire and make it smarter, without
requiring big bug-prone rewrites of core functions.
One bug fix involved a rewrite of the BOLTexecute and BOLTcommand
functions--but it seems to be working fine... Keep an eye on your forms.
And there was a change to how indexing rules are formed significantly
improving performance. Now rather than using search criteria to
include/exclude pages, you must use conditionals. The default "site" index
rule looks like the following:
site: mode=text if='! inlist {p1}
action,code,group,site,template,member,group,index && ! inlist {page}
{zones} case=false'
Be sure to update your index rules with this upgrade... (Let me know if you
have questions)
All the rest are brand new features... Nice embellishments. Should be a
good release. As far as I'm concerned--this is pretty much the feature set
of 5.xx. I'll still wait a bit to see if any additional bugs surface, or if
there are additional features requests/ideas--but we're close!
Cheers,
Dan
>From the Changelog:
* Small fix in auto login function involving the nextpage parameter.
* Improved comment markup to avoid conflicts with bold/italics combination.
* Added a hook for a custom myBOLTskinSettings.
* Code zones (like style sheets) are now processed after page zones (rather
than before) to allow for easier site customization.
* Added a BOLTcssPrefix variable which can be used to modify skin settings
on the fly.
* Added an optional nextpage argument to the warn command to forward the
form to a specified error page.
* Improved reset command to get it to work with post values and passdata.
* Revised the info function for faster performance, and added new
BOLTinfoPeek and BOLTinfoPoke utilities for developers. All under the hood.
* Added a mode=info parameter to savedata to allow you to save multiple
fields as info instead of data.
* The sum info processor can now take a part parameter to sum up one
"column" of an info page.
* Found a bug in the BOLTexecute function (which handles form processing)
involving the nextpage command. Required a bit of a rewrite--but seems to
be working now with no side effects...
* Another very cool feature--can now add id, class, and style attributes to
the messages markup.ie: [messages style='color:red']
* Inpage conditional can now scan page data as well as page content by
adding data=true as a parameter.
* Revised how indexing rules work. Now must use a conditional to limit
pages, rather than search criteria. So instead of group=forum, do if='equal
{p1} forum'. It will require you to rewrite your index rules, but it is
dramatically faster.
