New Features
Show DIV/TABLE Status While Editing
Added to: 3.9.0 development
A new feature has been developed to display the status of DIVs and Tables on the bodycopy's edit contents screen. This allows for an editor to quickly see which pieces of content require approval while editing.
Print Parent Content in Listings
Added to: 3.9.0 development
When grouping assets by a common parent, two new keywords are available to print the contents of the parent asset. The keyword will print the contents of the parent asset with its paint layout applied (if it has one). The keyword will print the contents of the parent without its paint layout applied.
Manual Account Manager Validation
Added to: 3.9.0 development
The account manager page now lists all accounts that have not been validated and allows you to validate or reject each of them. This feature is useful if a user has lost their validation email and rings you for manual validation, or if you want to clean up accounts that have not been validate in a while.
