DaDaBIK 11.1 Elba is out: we finally have users self-registration

Posted by Eugenio on 14 Sep 2021

Dear DaDaBIK users,
a new version, 11.1 is out. The main change is the availability of users self-registration. A "register" link allows visitors to create their account, specifying username, email, password and other optional information.
This feature is disabled by default, a new enable_users_self_registration config parameter allows you to enable it.

Other two new config parameters allow to enable email confirmation (account is active only after email confirmation) and the "forgot password" feature (a temporary new password is sent via email). Finally, you can also choose the group a self-registered user should belongs to.

Two other small but quite useful enhancements are available:

• a select all link allows you to select all the records in a page without selecting each checkbox manually. You can then delete all the elements or apply a custom function to the set of elements. The link appears after having selected one record.


• For php_ajax custom buttons, it is now possible to specify, in your custom function, a custom message (confirmation message or error message) that wil be displayed to the user after the execution of the function. Until now, only a "Done!" message was always displayed. You can find an example in the documentation.

Online demos still run V 11.0 and users self-registration won't be enabled anyway so you can't check out the new features from the demos.

We also have several bug fixes, please check them out in the change log; the first in the list (the htmlspecialchars requirement) it's not a proper bug, more a missing note in the documentation but it's still very important to verify.

You can buy DaDaBIK 11.1 from here https://dadabik.com/download

You can find all the new features and bug fixes in the change log.

As usual, if you already have a license, get your v. 11.1 copy from the upgrade page. If you have an Enterprise license and want to upgrade to Platinum, reply to this email.

Finally, a special thanks goes to the translators, the work this time was much more than usual!

Enjoy!

Best,
