flashnode 5.x-5.0

This is a new feature release for Drupal 5 that backports some new features from the Drupal 6 work. The most significant change is that this release implements the requested "bulk import" feature. You can now upload multiple files to your flash directory (and you can also create sub-directories) and then get flash node to import them and create nodes. The import means you can work around HTTP file upload limits, or you can use FTP to upload lots of swf files and then create the nodes in one go.

A second key changes is that you can now disable access to the basic and advanced flash node settings so you can prevent users from altering settings such as the substitution text. As part of this change the default display type (teaser only / full view only / both) can be set on the settings page. You can disable this part of the node creation form, again using permissions, to prevent users altering it.

You can now also limit the upload types that flash node will accept by specifying allowable extensions. In flash node for Drupal 5 this is a "global" settings that applies to all users, but in the release for version 6 this will be configurable per user role, much like upload.module.
