Bistro October Update
Posted By: Joseph Fung

Another month, and another update.  This month's update is an exciting one because it includes a number of core functional upgrades as well as some small usability improvements *and* a new module. The systems that are effected by this update (as well as their most recent version numbers) are:

  • Bistro Core (2.6.4.1)
  • Article Manager (1.7.5)
  • Contact Us Form (1.7.2)
  • Member Access System (1.4)
  • Online Store (1.14.1)
  • Profile Manager (1.3)
  • Searchable Database (1.2)
  • Title Override (1.1)

Key highlights of the update include the fact that the built in form handler can be better templated now, and the form builder now includes additional field types such as radio buttons and drop-down lists. Additionally the Online Store now supports additional payment options (PayPal Pro UK)  and our Member Access System now features improved controls over specific data fields. Individual members can be hidden from searches, and custom fields can be modified to only show up in the registration proces (if, for example, you have a question that they should answer on registration, but shouldn't be able to change).

We also have a new micro-module called the Title Override module, that allows you to specify a specific title for SEO purposes, but that isn't used in the list of content within Bistro.
