The 2.5.1 version adds a few small features that have been requested recently, particularly the setLimit parameter which now allows you to limit the number of files retrieved for each category.

This release also includes a separate version for Joomla 1.5 that has been updated with some new features (like the Submit File button for each category, along with the new features mentioned below) that had been added to the Joomla 2.5 version, so if you're still using Joomla 1.5, please grab DOCman List 1.5.10 from the Downloads page :-).

Version 2.5.1 Bug Fixes/Features

  • Added in a new setLimit Feature that allows you to limit the number of files retrieved per category (e.g would retrieve 3 documents from category 37)
  • Added in 10 new options for auto expanding (Expand File List Automatically option must be turned off in order to function. Then use one of these corresponding keys: autoExpandOneLevel, autoExpandTwoLevels, autoExpandThreeLevels, autoExpandFourLevels, autoExpandFiveLevels, autoExpandSixLevels, autoExpandSevenLevels, autoExpandEightLevels, autoExpandNineLevels, autoExpandTenLevels
  • Added in Submit File button additions into normal categories layout too
  • Made Submit File option appear consistently for different option configurations, along with Category ID tooltip (which appears when hovering over the category name)

docmanlist 2.5.0 submit file feature

Note: Please install Customized System SEF Plugin

When using DOCman List there is a high probability that you will cause Joomla's default System SEF Plugin to break, because of the regular expressions and error handling it uses. This will result in a WSOD (White Screen of Death) with no apparent reason/cause. The solution is to download and install (FREE) the Updated System SEF Plugins (available for Joomla 1.5 and 1.7) from the Downloads area.

The 2.5.0 version is simply a minor update for the 1.7 version of DOCman List (I've now verified that everything works correctly in Joomla 2.5 and have added a few small features and bug fixes)!

Version 2.5.0 Bug Fixes/Features

  • Fixed potentially nasty PHP 5.3 error which was related to SEF URLs
  • Added DOCman Category ID Tooltip (hover over a category name in the nestedcategories/nestedtable layouts and quickly find out what your Category ID is)
  • Added new Submit File capability directly to the nestedcategories/nestedtable layouts (really handy when you have lots of categories and users...automatically selects the correct category in Step 3 of the Submit File wizard)
  • Added Details link for those that have viewing capabilities on a file.

The 1.7.2 version is simply a minor update for the 1.7 version of DOCman List (one bug and some image path issues for the showMenu option have been fixed)!

Version 1.7.2 Bug Fixes!

  • Fixed the showMenu option (path to image folder and language keys  were incorrect)
  • Fixed an issue when using the showCollapsed option (it wouldn't reset the auto expand levels parameter to 0)
  • Changed the left margin for the nested list items in the nestedtable layout from 10px to 15px (seems to improve the look when expanding the items)

The 1.7.1 version is simply a minor update for the 1.7 version of DOCman List (fixes related to the new caching feature have been added)!

Version 1.7.1 Bug Fixes!

  • Fixed an issue where using docmanlist multiple times in a single page resulted in cloned output (instead of different output).
  • Fixed an issue with the new optional caching parameters (wouldn't work properly when manually enabled, since the optional parameters would not have been processed when the cache was retrieved)

The 1.5.9 version is a fairly major update that provides a completely new layout called nestedtable which provides an even nicer way to browse and display your files!

Also new in this version is a Joomla 1.7 compatible version of DOCman List!

New version 1.5.9 Features!

  • Added a new layout: You can now have your folders output more like they would be on your filesystem (Corresponding key when calling plugin: useNestedTableLayout)
  • Added a new layout: Same as the above one, but just doesn't include the files in the output (Corresponding key when calling plugin: useNestedCategoriesLayout)
  • Added new CSS code that makes the output HTML displayed more compact. You can enable/disable this option as needed if you'd like to revert back to the older output (enabled by default) (Corresponding key when calling plugin: useNewCSS, useOldCSS)
  • Added ability for categories with zero files to have the category count hidden (Corresponding keys when calling plugin: showEmptyCategoryCount, hideEmptyCategoryCount)
  • Added ability for the folders to be expanded to a particular level automatically (only applicable to the new Nested Table / Nested Categories layouts)
  • Added ability for folders to be displayed before files (prior to this the output has been the opposite...only applicable for the new Nested Table / Nested Categories layouts)
  • Added ability for folders to be expanded by clicking on the <h2> category heading as well as the +/- image
  • Changed Zebra striping to use CSS3 nth-child selector instead of the row1 class (also added zebra striping for the nested layouts)
  • Added a fix for people using jxtended Finder (the plugin was using JPATH_BASE instead of JPATH_ROOT, so if called from the backend the plugin would run into a fatal error
  • Fixed the table output for the table and nestedtable layouts (the <tr> within each <thead> tag was missing the corresponding </tr> tag which resulted in invalid output)

1.7.0 Features!

  • Forced Output Caching...this should help reduce server strain and page load times on sites with lots of Files to display.
