We are happy to announce the release of DOCman 1.6.7 for Joomla 2.5. This new maintenance release of DOCman is available for download at the Joomlatools Member Center.

This maintenance release brings a many bufg fixes and also includes 3 new features.  Here is an overview of the new features we added :

What’s new

1. View only access for documents

DOCman 1.6.7 now includes ‘view’ only access for documents. To turn on ‘view’ access you need to set the frontend guest access to ‘browse only’ in the DOCman configuration. The  download buttons will then be redirected to the login page.

2. Support for menu metadata and title options

We have added support for the menu metadata (description and keywords) and title options that where introduced in Joomla 2.5. You can set them per menu item and DOCman will then add them to every page of that menu item.

3. Use Unicode SEF slugs

DOCman will generate Unicode slugs if this option is enabled in the Joomla SEF configuration settings. This allows you to have multi-lingual SEF url’s for your DOCman categories and documents.

More information about the new releases and a complete list of all the changes can be found in our DOCman change-logs.
