vBadvanced CMPS v3.0 RC2 Released
Badvanced CMPS v3.0 RC2 has just been released and is now available in the Members' Area here. In addition to correcting any known bugs, there are also a few new features and options, which are as follows:
* When adding a new template page, there is now a place to include the content for the template (similar to when adding a template module).
* New setting in the Recent Threads module to allow you to display the "first new post" image linking members to the first unread post in the thread.
* New settings in the News module allowing you to enable/disable displaying the number of replies and views.
* Integration method updated to include the top portion of the template including all code before the <body> tag (helpful for integrating pages that require custom javascript or other code in their <head> tags).
* When uploading a module, it is now possible to select multiple styles to install the templates to.
* In addition to the ability to preview BB code modules and pages, you may now preview PHP file and template modules/pages as well.
* The "Modules Enabled" section when adding/editing a page will now split into multiple rows if you have more than 3 locations, preventing the custom columns from stretching the page.
* When deleting pages, it now checks to see if the page has been used in integration and allows you to remove that page from your integration settings before deletion (prevents a problem where deleting a page used in integration results in a "No page specified" error message in the files the page was integrated with).
* New "Diagnostics" link in the Admin CP that will scan for missing module files, incorrect URL settings, and outdated CMPS files on your server.
* The majority of the code to process module has been moved into a plugin that is called in the vBulletin print_output() function, preventing modules integrated with vBulletin pages from being unnecessarily processed on page redirects and other times when they are not needed.
* If a module is saved with the "Apply Forum Permissions" setting enabled, but the "Initialize Forum Permissions" setting disabled, the "Initialize Forum Permissions" setting will automatically be enabled as forum permissions may not work properly otherwise.
* Links added to the navbar template via hooks (or the $template_hook variables) will now have the Navbar Replacements function run on them, allowing you to update these links via the Navbar Replacements setting.
