5.0.8 Beta 1 is now available!

We have a bumper beta ready for you all this week. Head over to the release notes to see the full list.

Along with many fixes, this release brings a lot of accessibility updates, UI improvements, new permission extension methods to force include or deny specific node IDs in getItemsWithPermission and nodesWithPermission

We also have a little beta-ish feature we're calling 'Node Groups'.

Groups are a way to easily select multiple forums as a moderator in different areas of the suite.

You set up Groups via the Forum page in the AdminCP and then when, as a moderator, you go to choose forums in a forum selector (default streams, saved actions, etc) you can easily select that group instead of having to remember all the forums you'd normally select.

In this little example, I create a group for 'Support' which includes my support forums. Then, when I create a new saved action that I only want to apply to my support forums, I can include that group.

The great thing is that it auto-updates. So adjusting the Forum Group will automatically update where that saved action is available.

We're still rolling this out across the suite, but let us know your thoughts.

Thanks for letting us know. I have corrected that issue.

Recommended Tags

If you have a lot of tags and want a way to surface a smaller subset of them to the top, then recommended tags is for you! Any tag 'recommended' via the AdminCP will show at the top of the list when tagging in content.

Let us know how you get on!

I've just pushed 5.0.8 Beta 3 to deployment, which should show up soon.

There's not a huge amount that has changed, but we wanted just to test one last thing before we release the final version tomorrow.

You actually like autoplay? I always disable that in my browser settings first thing.

Just a note to say that 5.0.8 has now been released.

Just the one extra bug fix:

Fixes an issue where guests could comment on blogs when the group setting was set to off.

Thanks @Madhouseau and @zelgadis , this will be fixed for the next update.

In the mean time, you can add this to your Custom CSS area to fix it:

/* Prevent hr's from stretching vertically */
.ipsHr{
	max-height: 1px;
}
