MySource Matrix Developer Newsletter Issue 171
Friday 28th March 2008
covers version 3.14.10 stable, 3.16.6 stable, 3.18.0 RC2, 3.19.0 development
News
Replace URL Script Renamed
The script file update_lookups.php is now known as replace_url.php, in versions 3.18.0 and later. This is to remove confusion between it and system_update_lookups.php by giving it a name that more closely reflects its purpose - to replace instances of one URL with another, especially when moving systems from server to server.
New Features
E-Commerce Checkout Updates
Added to: 3.19.0 development, 3.18.0 stable, 3.16.7 stable
Changes made this week: If a customer has paid for their cart, but between that time and delivery there are insufficient quantities of a product(s) to fulfil the order, then the order will still go through. This will cause the product quantity fields to turn negative.
Keywords have been added to the Default Delivery Method to print a list of products and/or a message where negative-quantity products. When sent to the owner of the form, this can be used as a reminder
to order extra stock.
Send Workflow Starter Rejection Email
Added to: 3.19.0 development
This change to the Workflow system will send an email to the user that initiated a workflow process on an asset, if that process is rejected. This notifies the user that they may need to review their edits, along with any notes provided in the workflow process. This change applies to all workflows and cannot be disabled.
Asset Lineage Design Area: Start At Level
Added to: 3.19.0 development
A new "start_at_level" variable has now been added to the Asset Lineage Design Area asset, that starts printing from a specified level. The top of the lineage (the Site asset, if coming from a forward direction) is Level 0, and increases from there.
Planned Development
No new generic features are currently scheduled for development.

Notes:
Bug #2908 ("'Cascade Status Change' not working for Future Status", reported by sdelfante on 6th March 2008) has been marked as Not a Bug after lack of feedback. When set up, only one job is created, on the target asset, and it will casade the change from there, rather than the job itself.
