Version 06.00.07 - 06.01.02

Search

• Full Search Integration with new DNN 7 Search
• Each template/view can modify how the content is presented to the search using CustomizeSearch
• Each template/view can also specify alternate URLs for each entity (for example to a details-view)
• Multi-lingual tested
• Special property InstancePurpose added so all events (for example preparing data) know that it's preparing data for search. This helps because in search-mode, objects like the Request are missing

Data Improvements

• App.Data now delivers all data of this app. so App.Data["Tag"] would deliver all entities of type Tag
• This can easily be combined with common pipelines, like these examples

var categories = CreateSource<ValueSort>(App.Data["Category"]);

or

// Sort by FullName
var sortedCats = CreateSource<ValueSort>(App.Data["Category"]);
sortedCats.Attributes = "Name";
Data.In.Add("Categories", sortedCats["Default"]);

• The new DataSource DataSources.App CreateSource<Eav.DataSources.App>() can be used to access data from another App or zone
• The new DataSource RelationshipFilter helps find things that have an assigned entity (like a tag, category)

// Just add the items which have the relationship to the category in the URL
var qsOfCat = CreateSource<RelationshipFilter>(App.Data["QandA"]);
qsOfCat.Relationship = "Categories";
qsOfCat.Filter = "[QueryString:Category]";
Data.In.Add("QandA", qsOfCat["Default"]);

• CustomizeData() event added so that the template/view can change data available to the template before it's loaded (or even if it's not loaded, for example for search)

public override void CustomizeData()
{
    // new features in 6.1 - the App DataSource CreateSource<App> and also the RelationshipFilter
    // Just add the items which have the relationship to the category in the URL
    var qsOfCat = CreateSource<RelationshipFilter>(App.Data["QandA"]);
    qsOfCat.Relationship = "Categories";
    qsOfCat.Filter = "[QueryString:Category]";
    Data.In.Add("QandA", qsOfCat["Default"]);
}

• Data-Publishing settings can be mode in code

Installation Experience

• The installation now has fewer steps...
• If you have not configured anything in the content, it will suggest to auto-install some templates
• if you have not configured any apps, it will suggest to auto-install some apps

Various improvements and bug fixes

• Toolbar now shows draft-items with a red edit button
• JS API had some fixes for generating the toolbars
• better caching, faster data-import
• linked files/pages using the File:47 syntax can now add parameters. This is especially usefull for image-resizing or jumping to an anchor on a page - like this File:720?w=…&h=333#
• ...and much more
