New videos... Permanent link to this post with (4 comments )
We've created a couple of new videos showing off new features in the coming final version of umbraco 2.0 (release on monday!!!). They're all approx. two minutes long.

Assign domains
You can assign domains to any page in umbraco - watch this video to see how.

Move and copy pages - and publish multiple pages fast
Move and copy functionality has been added (about time, huh?). And you can also publish multiple pages in one step directly from the tree view. See it all in this video.

Auto-detection of dirty html when pasting
Pasting has been enhanced to automatically check for dirty html (from applications like Microsoft Word). When pasting a dialog ask if you want to clean it...

Customizing Dashboard and introducing Quick Edit
...and finally, this little video shows how the Dashboard (the right area of the interface) can be customized with any usercontrols. It can be used for shortcuts to the last edited pages, messages from an administrator or like this sample shows: Quick Edit - inspired by Google Suggest. umbraco shows editable pages while you type, making it fast to find and edit any page in umbraco. This is really nice if you're working on a huge website with a deep structure - no need to traverse through all the parent pages...

Oops... the "Dashboard" link points to the "Quick Edit" video.
 
Just my post that was a bit unclear. The point was to show that the dashboard can be customized. In this sample with the Quick Edit function. I'll try to add some more videos to show other ways of using it...

In the next umbraco update we'll focus more on redesigning the dashboard and make the general user interface even more intuitive... But right now focus is to release on monday - so back to bug-fixing ;-)
 
I'm holding my breath and counting down! I'm very excited to try out the product.

All the best for your new baby!
