Wagn is the wiki way to organize.  New in our Wagn 1.2 release: custom layouts, sleek forms with rich elements (dropdowns, checkboxes, etc), and easy ways to set default content via links.

 

Custom layouts and more powerful forms mean Wagn 1.2 will help you get even more creative and organized.

 

With our new custom layouts, you can arrange cards (including newly "virtual" cards like search bars, alerts, etc) on pages however you see fit.  It all works just like any wagn card: you edit, you include, you save.

 

Wagn 1.2 also features an upgrade to our forms system with a trimmer look and a lot more pointer interface options (dropdowns, radio buttons, checkboxes, etc).  And we've made it easier to create links that prepopulate forms.  Smarter default values makes for smoother workflow.

 

Wagn's a great canvas.  Paint away!

 

Be sure to run your migrations!  1.2 adds a number of new cards.

Some help text moving from above a card to just under the card's title bar.

probably not migrating *max in this migration. I might prefer to hold off on *autoname just yet, too, until we get the rforms working, though that's a weaker vote.

If we do *autoname, i'm thinking to set initial permissions for viewing it to admin, so as not to muddy up Recent Changes with irrelevant WagnBot edits. Make sense? Would it break anything?

John, we can never migrate *css!! That would break everybody's custom work. If you want those changes, we have to do it through the code.

I thought migration of existing cards only ever happened if the card had never been edited (except by Wagn Bot presumably) from its default creation content?
