Recent releases


Changes: This release adds Public Document, which allows users to make their fragments open to the public with the "#public" tag. A fragment tagged with "#public" can be accessed via Document View without login. If a fragment is tagged with both "#public" and "#home", you can access it via http://<host-name>/public/ (Public Home).


Changes: This release adds Full Text Search, which is the most requested feature so far. The special tags ("trash", "home", "bookmark", etc) were renamed to: "#trash", "#home", "#bookmark", etc (adding the prefix '#'). Those tag names in an existing repository will be updated automatically when upgrading to this version.


Changes: This release adds Image Viewer, which allows users to view images in a pop-up window. It is especially useful if users have registered large-size images that are scaled down in the fragment view. A button was added to the fragment page for creating relations to the selected fragments.


Changes: This release adds Fragment Batch, which allows users to select multiple fragments and manipulate them as a group. You select fragments by clicking the checkbox at the top-right corner of each fragment.


Changes: This release adds Document View that provides users with an alternative view to knowledge fragments. Clicking the tool button (with a document icon) on the title bar of a fragment opens a document view window. Document View is a simple XHTML document that is generated from a specified fragment and its related fragments. The recently viewed fragments and tags on the sidebar were integrated into one "Recently Viewed" list.
