Hi everyone,

We're working on some menu enhancements for v1.33 to make it easier to build larger and more advanced CMS and web applications.

We've added:

- Menu Groups, header bars in the menu that group multiple links together. We also intend to make these collapsible in accordion style so opening one group closes the others.

- Text Links, you can now add text links to the menu bar that link to external sites or any url. This makes it easier to provide links to other applications or services your clients might need and more tightly integrate your system with CMSB.

- Indented Menu Items, you'll be able to indent a menu item so it shows "under" another menu item to create more logical groupings when there are lots of menu links.

I'll also be sending a beta email to any previous beta testers. If anyone wants to help beta test (you must own at least 1 CMSB license) please post on this thread. We'll have a beta ready for this soon. And if you have any questions, suggestions, etc feel free to post as well!

Thanks!

northernpenguin, thanks, I've added you.

I'm hoping to get the first beta out by the end of the week. There's just a few more things we need to wrap up.
