Releases for Views Checkboxes

* All outstanding issues now believed fixed.

* Compared with 5.x-3.1, adds several new features - see the configuration screen at admin/settings/views_checkboxes for further information.

New options

Limit:

Do not use checkboxes/radios if the number of options is greater than this value.

Size of list:

When using a select-list, display only this many entries. Enter zero to use Views default.

Increase size to fit

When "Size of list" is set, automatically increase it by one if that will show the whole list.

Remove "None selected"

Remove the "None selected" option which may otherwise appear in Taxonomy lists.

Bug Fixes

* None (there are no bugs to fix, that we know of :)

New Features

* Supports "Views Filterblock" module.

This release should hide the '- Please choose -' entry from being among the options.

One note for those upgrading from 1.x to this 3.x module. Since the options have changed, you should make sure to visit the update page to ensure the module gets a chance to convert old options to the new ones. Prior to doing this, the module will be effectively disabled as soon as you place the new files in your modules directory.

This update will leave 2 errors displaying in update.php (array_merge and foreach) - I'm sorry about that. I seem to have missed an element of the module updating docs and will investigate it for the next release. But it does update appropriately.

As for the big jump from 1.x to 3.x, I'm sorry about that. I'm not that good with CVS and a few typos in tag/branch names have basically made the 2.x branch line unusable anymore.

This release addresses a feature request (http://drupal.org/node/221995) to separately enable checkbox and radio replacement. It incorporates all given bugfixes made to the 1.x series of this module, but I'm not sure those are all yet resolved, so I am not calling this an official release yet. It is the latest one though and should probably be used before any other.

This should fix the issues people have been having with views that have select filters, but not related to taxonomies. If you had a view with a select box that had options other than taxonomy terms, they should be at least more gracefully handled by this module. I think these issues have been the culprit in http://drupal.org/node/215935 and also recently confused into http://drupal.org/node/192117.

The latest official release included a patch which conflicted with a views patch at: http://drupal.org/node/199675. The views patch there unhides the first option from a view taxonomy filter, but it remained hidden on the views page due to an improper comparison operator. This release resolves that hiding item.

This is a re-release of http://drupal.org/node/207726, which was generated on the site but the download link didn't work. I suspect it's because I screwed up a naming convention. Anyway, this should resolve a major bug with exposed filters that had **ALL** options in them (http://drupal.org/node/192117)

This should fix some of the problems people were having with dropdown menus that had "**ALL**" options in them, according to http://drupal.org/node/192117

I don't know why this release link is not working... I will generate a new release in a few minutes if it's still not working.

This is the initial release which supports altering all view filter forms.

This module alters views' filter forms so that the drop-down or select box widgets are represented as checkboxes or radio buttons instead. This initial release satisfies all the immediate needs I had for such a module, but I may expand it in the future to only alter certain views and leave others to the default display. Currently, a single checkbox on the admin page controls the entire module.

Honestly, this is probably better solved with the views module itself, and it is a registered issue there: http://drupal.org/node/122261
But for those who want to effect a global change to all view filter forms more quickly, this module should satisfy that need.
