Releases Postponed Due to Public Holiday

Normally, MySource Matrix releases are compiled and made public on the first Monday of each month. However, next Monday is a public holiday at Squiz developer HQ, which means that the releases get held over to the following Monday. Therefore, MySource Matrix versions 3.16.1 and 3.14.5 will instead be released on Monday, 8th October.

New Features

Global Asset-Specific Keywords

Added to: 3.17.0 development, 3.16.1 stable, 3.14.5 stable

The global keywords system now allows any keyword for a specific asset to be specified using a new addition to global keywords. The keyword format to be used is:

%globals_[asset_keyword]:[assetid]%

(For instance: globals_asset_name:900 would be replaced with the name of asset #900.)

Planned Development

No new generic features are currently scheduled for development.

Notes:

The following bug reports were marked as Can Not Replicate after no feedback was received for a number of weeks after feedback was requested by a developer who tried unsuccessfully to replicate the reports:

  • Bug #2602, "Incorrect root URL in site network workflow emails", reported by JohnM on September 3rd;
  • Bug #2629, "Rollback producing error via simple edit", reported by sdelfante on September 11th;
  • Bug #2638, "Roles permissions ignored on Paint Layout divs", reported by sdelfante on September 14th.

Bug #2650 ("Simple edit div too small in IE7", reported by timeverist on September 19th) was marked as Not a Bug, as it is believed to be a rendering problem concerning IE7 in Simple Edit when DOCTYPE is specified. This is usually worked around using an "In Simple Edit" show-if design area.
