Thanks for the responses so far to 2.1.1 beta 1.
- There is a minor bug in the admin template used for download quotas (an extra double quote). This breaks the display with IE, although Mozilla handles it ok. I attach a fixed template.
Here are plans/remarks for beta 2, which affect just the profile-based search introduced in beta 1:
- I will re-do the Profile-driven 'My Search' feature, along the lines that TundraSoul discussed, but 2.1.1 will not go all the way.
- Instead of using a new profile field to define the search, the admin will be able to link the search to an existing (or custom) profile field.
- If the field is a text box, then its contents will be treated as search keywords/strings, with commas or semicolons used to separate items
- If the field is a pulldown menu or set of checkboxes, then the descriptions of the selected items will be used to construct the searches.
- My Search will move from the 'Show' menu to the 'Search' menu, as additional menu items after 'Advanced Search'. It will expand into the distinct searches are framed by the user's profile.
- I will not at this stage provide the extra facility to link keywords to entries. You will have to do this via the entry's title/description. Keywording will stay on the 'wish list' for the time being.
OK?
