News

New Matrix Releases

Please be advised that the newest MySource Matrix releases - versions 3.16.10 and 3.18.3 - are now available for download from the MySource Matrix web site.

New Features

Move Assets Into Dated Folders Script

Added to: 3.19.0 development, 3.18.4 stable, 3.16.11 stable

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.

Custom keywords in Metadata Fields are now indexed by Search Manager

Added to: 3.19.0 development, 3.18.4 stable, 3.16.11 stable

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).

Planned Development

No new generic features are currently scheduled for development.
