by samantha copeland on June 17, 2013

I made a few feature additions to #CarrotCakeCMS over the last several days, haven't released an official build with these changes, but feel free to get latest and try out on your own.

  • update code to use new logic for timezone changes and what affects the blog URL paths when the TZ is changed
  • updated and centralized some logic that detects special path logic
  • added support to copy widgets from another page into the current page's selected placeholder.
  • refactor use of NavHelper in httphandler
  • fixes for when CarrotGridView DataSource is null
  • first pass at wiring in a copy widget from another page (menu and css hooks)
  • added ability to keep adding more child or more top level pages rather than having to continue closing and relaunching the add top/child page UI
  • added support for copying a widget and its widget settings
  • added support for attributes to specify a multi-line plain text or a rich html textbox (engage TinyMCE) instead of limiting to a single line textbox data type
  • fix for when the user's session did not totally clear authentication ticket
  • added better testing for authorized editors, streamlined some of the IsAuth code for readability
  • added SiteID to site list and site URL to site detail screen
  • added ability to assign an index and apply a template on the template assignment page even if no prior template was assigned
  • created a server control (ImageSizer) to present the image resize handler (carrotwarethumb.axd) and updated gallery code to use the control where possible
