Release notes

The 2.x branch has been created! Most of the code in there right now is working. The notable exceptions are asset_panels and asset_import. Please don't post issues on these unless you are supplying a patch, since these are known to not be working. Also, the asset_bonus module isn't as fully updated as I would like to see.

Asset embed is gone in favor of integration with the Embedded Media Field through the asset_emfield module. This is pretty exciting, since we can now piggy-back off of the work they are doing, especially when it comes to providers. On a related note, the asset_search module can display inline search results of various sites and turn any result into an emfield asset.

Upgrading from the ALPHA version is going to be problematic. Hopefully, we will be able to workout an upgrade path (eventually).

Release notes

This release marks a lot of new features:

• CCK field, with instantaneous in-line preview
• Support for panels to create galleries and a preview block that links to these galleries, in the asset_panels module
• Support for .flv files in the asset_bonus module
• Mass-import of files in the asset_import module
• Upload a bunch of files with ftp and import them all with just one click using the asset_import module
• Ability to edit/move/delete assets and folders and to change their permissions
• Lightbox support
• Improved imagecache support
• Improved TinyMCE support
• Better i18n and mullti-site support
• Many GUI improvements
• Support for the private download method

Release notes

This release is mainly development sponsored by rue89.com.

The main points are:

• Access control permissions for each asset type
• Enhanced public/private asset status, with individual role selection under private status
• Much cleaner and simple wizard interface
• Moved folder creation into an asset_type hook to take full advantage of public/private status
• By default, create a PUBLIC folder at the root asset level
• All rendered assets pass through a common theme function (theme_asset) for easy, consistent theming.
• Implemented align property in theme_asset
• asset_embed module, which extracts out the process of creating embed assets, and provides an easy mechanism for implementing new interfaces to 3rd party sites. Included are providers for youtube and dailymotion.

Thanks to Damien Cirotteau for the ideas behind this release.
