Beta 6 Available
MovableType 3.2 Beta 3 was made available last night, and this morning I made sure that Media Manager is still functioning as it should with the newest release. I also took the time to make some bug fixes, modifications, and feature enhancements.
There are two changes of relative significance:
- I have overhauled Media Manager's installation process again to be in compliance with MovableType's Plugin Development Best Practices. Now, to install Media Manager, all one should have to do is navigate to the directory which contains mt.cgi and unpack the Media Manager archive. Doing so will place all the files right where they belong. You no longer need to worry about symlinks or other complicated installation procedures.
- I have deprecated all of BookQueue's template tags. I have done this for consistencies sake, and to make the template tags names a little shorter, and more memorable. The "old" BookQueue tags will be supported for some time to come, but any new tags I introduce will only be available under Media Managers tagset.
Beta 6 Change Log
- Verified compatibility with MT 3.2 Beta 3
- Restructed tar and zip files for easier installation
- Updated installation docs
- Fixed bug that prevented one from deleting an item from the queue while in Grid View mode
- Deprecated all old BookQueue template tags in favor of simpler Media Manager tags. (Old tags will continue to work for an extended period of time).
- Added <$ItemCount$> template tag, which will return the number of items in a result set returned by
(not available with BookQueue tags! - Fixed bug that resulted in broken SYSTEM OVERVIEW link in header
- Fixed bug that resulted in broken "View Site" link
- Revised copyright to be simply 2005

I rcv'd a An error occurred:
Can't call method "param" on an undefined value at /public_html/mt/plugins/MediaManager/../../plugins/MediaManager/MediaManager.pl line 163.
I'm running MT 3.2b5 and MM b6.
I had problems with the install; haven't had a chance to play to figure out if I can clean up the file names (i.e. pludgins/MediaManager/../../plugins/MediaManager).
