There is no general MySource Matrix developer news this week.

New Features

Form Submission Actions

Added to: 3.19.0 development, 3.18.2 stable

This interface allows you to attach a new type of asset known as a Form Submission Action to a Custom Form asset. Form submission actions are similar in substance to trigger actions, but act upon the results of a form when successfully submitted. It should allow custom actions to be created more easily.

Two submission actions have been committed: one that allows you to send an additional email (over and above the Recipient/Receipt/Send to a Friend emails), and one that runs a database query. The latter is found in the Data package, which is SSV-only.

Planned Development

No new generic features are currently scheduled for development.

Notes:

Two bugs by dletorey were closed due following a number of weeks of no feedback after it was requested by our developers. The two bugs (bug #2997, "Table issue in WYSIWYG when using firefox", posted 2nd May; and bug #3005, "Password reset page wrong text", posted 8th May) couldn't be replicated by developers, so these bugs have been set to Can Not Replicate and closed.

Bug #3019 ("asset builder captcha", posted by aleks on May 16th) was marked as Can Not Replicate, after the issue, relating to the Asset Builder's CAPTCHA image not loading, was unable to be reproduced. The reporter was able to get it working following developer's advice.

Bug #3023 ("Moving an asset to a folder which have the same web path existing", posted by Anh Ta on 16th May) was marked as Not a Bug. This is expected behaviour; assets cannot be moved into a folder with the same web path, due to the ability in Matrix for assets to be linked in multiple places, meaning we cannot auto-magically change web paths for assets when they are moved.

Bug #3030 ("Snippet converts <> characters", posted by sdelfante on 21st May) was marked as Fixed as it was identified that it already been fixed in a previous version (3.16.4) of MySource Matrix.
