A new command-line script "move_assets_to_dated_folders.php" is available in the "scripts" folder which can be used to move assets under a specified parent and asset type under a dated folder structure. Folders are created for each applicable year, month and day. Assets are moved to these folders depending on their 'created' or 'published' dates.
Asset-based keywords such as %event_start_date% for Single Calendar Events are now evaluated and indexed by Search Manager when used as Metadata Field values. Previously these keywords were not evaluated and were indexed as the keyword without reserved characters (eg; %event_start_date% was indexed as "eventstartdate" instead of the evaluated date content).
Global Keywords can now be specified as search terms in a Search Page query. For example, a query containing %globals_asset_name% from a Search Page will be modified when searching to replace the keyword with the name of the Search Page.
The editing interface for Metadata Hierarachy fields has been modified to provide a "Drill-Down" Display Type. Values can be added from the hierarchy by clicking the "Add" button next to each level.
Three new Paint Layout options are now available in Nested Content Design Areas. These design areas can now use either the default Paint Layout, no Paint Layout, or an arbitrary Paint Layout.
Customisable formats are now available to configure E-Commerce receipts. This functionality works similar to Asset Listing in that there are "Receipt Format" and "Receipt Contents" bodycopies. Custom keywords are available to show attributes such as price, tax and other fees. The %customised_receipt% keyword is available for use in the email contents of the default delivery method, as well as certain bodycopies of the checkout asset.
New functionality has been added to Send Email Trigger to allow email messages to be sent to shadow assets (ie; LDAP Users). LDAP Users can be added individually in the "General Options" section, or included when associated with User Groups or Roles.
