MySource Matrix Changelog - 3.24.1 to 3.24.2

Featured Changes

Context-aware Metadata

Metadata Field Values and defaults now honour the Context System (ie; are "context-aware").

Set Metadata and Metadata Date Trigger Action modifications

These Trigger Actions now have a option to set the Context in which the value is set. If this is not specified, the active Context at the time the Trigger was fired will be used.

Note on Asset cloning operations

When cloning an asset, Metadata is regenerated in any Context where the parent asset may have Metadata set.

Edit and Regenerate Metadata HIPO modifications

Metadata can now be edited and regenerated in batches for one or more selected Contexts. This is performed from the "Metadata" screen of the target asset.

Search Re-index and Replace Tool HIPO modifications

Modifications have been made to ensure that the destination Context is acknowledged when run either from the browser or Squiz Server.

Non-contextable Metadata

Non-contextable Metadata is required for fields which must maintain their assigned values across all contexts. For example, a field which may be holding something numeric, or otherwise important - product quantities and prices etc. - may require this to be set.

When marked "non-contextable", default values will only save to the Default Context, and this is what will be shown to the interface in all Contexts.

Context Support for Paint Layouts

The current Context is now used instead of the Default Context when Paint Layouts are rendered. This allows content to be customised per Context, which can, for example, provide text in alternate languages for these elements.

Get Child Assets performance enhancement

The Asset Manager query to obtain child assets now uses a JOIN clause in the FROM statement rather than within the main query body. This may provide per formance benefits in systems with large asset trees and systems with many applied permissions or roles.

Globals Site Keywords performance enhancement

Modifications have been made to the Matrix core to provide improvements in the evaluation speed of %globals_site_..% keywords and when site-based options are selected from the Parameter Map.

Set Design Trigger Action: Parameter Map support

The Design asset applied by this Trigger Action can now be referenced from the Parameter Map. This allows SESSION and HTTP GET variables (and more) to control the asset used here.

Thanks to Nic Hubbard for contributing the Parameter Map code for this Trigger Action.

Visual Difference for Paint Layouts and Metadata Field Values under Safe Edit

The Safe Edit visual difference functionality for bodycopy content has been expanded to include difference identification for Paint Layouts and Metadata Field values.
