It's so far just keeping track of resources (and TVs if using 2.1 or above, will be implementing it for 2.0 too) and the different elements. That's real cool as it is, but there's no functionality yet to actually view version details, compare or let alone restore them. I've got it running on a couple of personal sites and sites of my clients now to let it collect data and being able of using that for developing with a real case scenario.

The only thing done now is a grid with some filter options for Resources. This is what it looks like-ish:

I'm probably going to adapt a different UI style, based on the work from Lossendae which is used in his Cliche package. Mainly cause it looks super sexy and VersionX 2 also is super sexy. On top of that there'll be some very interesting configuration options and other stuff I've got planned. But I don't want to promise specifics until it's done

I'll keep this topic up to date for sure if there's real news to report. For the running stuff on VersionX or one of the other 4 projects I'm working on, just follow me on Twitter: @mark_hamstra.

Just to let you know.. I've finally started a complete rewrite - and it's looking real cool. More features (*cough* element versioning *cough*) and it's going to be set up much more flexible and useful than ever would've been possible with VersionX 1.0.

VersionX 2.0 wont be released until I'm happy with it and with very limited hours to spend on this that'll be a while

But we'll get there.

No idea on a timeline, though I’m not expecting anything for at least another three weeks - possibly longer. Probably also first a release candidate or two before the PL etc. There’s more great things coming in 2.2 such as minifying & caching JS on the fly (great manager speed boost there) and static elements.

(This is me guessing based on what I’ve seen in the past - not some secret source or anything)

Thanks for your reply. Do you have any idea when 2.2 will come out? Do you have further information on this?

It can’t remove critical file, wreck anything out of its own table etc.

If you’re getting an endless save loop the plugin probably goofed up, disabling the plugin on the Elements tab will fix that.
Besides that, I can’t think of ways that it may actually break stuff. Just sayin’ it could probably ruin an otherwise quiet evening (tho the current version in the Repo would too ).

That’s Louis Hoefler part of the German MODX community I think - he contacted me via email. Attached the latest he sent me. I didn’t test this so using it is at your own risk

Do you think there is a risk to use it? Is there anything what could be damaged by using it?

Odd - can’t download the a7 from Git myself either. Reupload didn’t seem to fix that, either..

I’ve added the packages to the repo, so you can download them from here: https://github.com/Mark-H/VersionX/tree/master/_releases now too - but I still don’t think it works properly.

While I rarely have time, it’s good that you guys are posting here. The more that post - the higher this is added on my to do list, and whenever I have some time it’ll have a better shot at coming in.

http://cloud.github.com/downloads/Mark-H/VersionX/versionx-1.0-alpha7.transport.zip

access denied... but i can download alpha6, which doesn’t help me... any way to unlock alpha7 for public consumption?

also.. I built the alpha7 from GitHUB and when I run the package and install it, it installs succesfully but when I goto the VersionX component, I am greeted with a blank page and I get a script error

http://mywebsite.com/manager/js/versionx.js?vx=100a6

so that path is wrong or someting is fishy??

any ideas
