• Added actions so other developers or plugins can control what pages/posts that are editiable and so on. Added filters are: cms_tree_page_view_post_can_edit, cms_tree_page_view_post_user_can_add_inside, cms_tree_page_view_post_user_can_add_after

• Fixed XSS vulnerability as described here: https://www.htbridge.com/advisory/HTB23083

• Fix for tree not remembering state
• Fix for tree not opening on first click

• Added option to show the tree in the regular post overview screen. Makes the tree view fit into the regular workflow and GUI much better. To enable: go to settings > CMS Tree Page View > Tick the option "On post overview screen". Then go to for example the pages overview screen and in the upper right corner there will be an icon to switch between the regular list view and the tree view of this plugin.
• Fixed so search button now looks more like the rest of the WordPress GUI
• Fixed a undefined index warning
• Fixed wrong language count for WPML-enabled post types
• Perhaps fixed a problem with some other plugins, for example Formidable Pro
• Added icon to settings page
• Added updated Russian translation
• Updated POT-file for translators

• Added "Add new"-link next to headline, to better match the regular post overview page + it makes it possible to add new pages/posts when there are no pages/posts added (previously there needed to be at least one post added to be able to add new posts)
• Added post count in parenthesis after each post status. Also makes the page match the regular post overview page a it more. Works for both built in post types and custom post types + if WPML is installed it will show post count for each language too.
• Fixed a bug with sortables (well, I kinda forgot to load that script at all!) that made the plugin only work on the dashboard.
• Fixed some IE-bugs

• New: create multiple pages at once! Add multiple pages faster than ever before! You can ever select if the new pages should be drafts or published. And ever drag and drop the pages to get the correct order even before adding them. I know - it's awesome!
• Fixed: adds new pages with the correct and selected WPML-language
• Added: you can now change the type of a post by draging the post between different trees on the dashboard. So if you have one custom post type called "Cars" and another called "Bicycles" you can now drag a page from the cars tree to the bicicyles tree and the post will converted to that post type. Pretty powerful feature that you used to need a separately plugin to be able to do.
• Misc fixes
• Added new POT-file for translators
• I decided to call this version 1. I've been using this plugin for so long time now and I use it in almost every WordPress project I participate in (all projects with lots of pages), so with this new add-mulitple-page-feature it feels like it's time to go to version 1. Hope you'll agree! :)

• Fixed popup closing to fast on Firefox.
• Enable menu item setting by default for hierarchical post types during first install. It was confusing when it was enabled for pages but not for other post types. Consistency!
• Added link to settings page to plugin listing.
• Fixed: WPML-stuff now also works on custom post types

• Fixed position of action div. Now it's always to the right of the page name.
• Fixed so action div never is below the fold of the browser. Instead it's moved up until it's visible.
• Fixed problem related to hoverIntent and mouseover and drag and drop. There was just to many wierd things going on so I switched to my own solution instead. Let me know if it works ok for you too now again!

• Only output scripts and styles on pages that the plugin uses. This should speed up other parts of the WordPress admin a little tiny itsy bitsy bit.
• Added a hopefully not to spammy box about donation and stuff. Hopefully it it encourages some of you to give it a good review or maybe even donate some money. I've spent a lot, lot, LOT of time developing this plugin you know ;)
• Changed title on dashboard widgets and changed name of the menu item under each supported post type. Makes the titles/names look/feel a bit less dorky.
• Show icons next to the headline of top of pages with the tree
• Minor CSS changes like a little bit bigger text on the pages and a bit more spacing between each page. Makes a bit easier to drag and drop/move them around.
• Changed javascript to to use on() istead on live()
• Removed hoverIntent since that is included in WordPress by default
• Started using hoverIndent to make the popup with page actions show after a short while for each page. This also means that you can move outside the actions-pop-up for a short while without the pop up being closed - a thing that annoyed me very much. This makes the whole popup actions div thingie feels less in-your-face all the time. Hope you like it as much as I do!

• Added Estonian translation

• Updated Lithuanian language

• Polish translation added.

• Added: You can now show the tree for regular posts. Appearently there are som plugins that use the hierarchy on posts.

• Changed caller_get_posts (deprecated since 3.1) to ignore_sticky_posts
• Norwegian translation added by Eigil Moe (http://www.eimoe.com)

• fixed some problems with columns and utf-encoding
• moved adding page to a box above the tree, so you won't get the feeling that the tree has been deleted when you add a page.

• Added links to PayPal and Flattr, so users who like the plugin can donate.

• Upgraded jstree to rc2. This fixes the problems with drag & drop and mouse over that occured in WordPress 3.1 beta.

• Readme-fix...

• If a post has a custom post status, that status will be shown instead of "undefined". So now CMS Tree Page View works better together with plugins like "Edit flow".

• CSS images loaded from google via https instead of http. Does this solve the problems you guys with https-sites had?
• Users of IE could not add pages at the right place. All pages where added at the top instead of after or inside another page. Only tested in IE 8, please let me know of the other version..

• changed so some icons are loaded from ajax.googleapis.com instead of Google Code. Google Code was a bit slow.

• fixed some strings that where untranslatable and updated POT-file (if I missed any, please let me know)
• no longer allowed to add sub pages to a page with status draft, because if you edit the page and save it, wordpress will forget about the parent (and you will get confused)
• started using hoverIntent for popup instead of regular mouseover, so the popups won't feel so aggressive - or no.. reverted this :(
• when adding a page a text comes up so you know that something is going on
• possible fix for magic fields and other plugins that deal with post columns

• Updated POT-file, so translators may wan't to check their translations.
• Added Spanish translation by Carlos Janini. Thank you!

• a page can now be moved above a page with the same menu order. moved page will get the menu order of the page that it's moved aboved, and the other page will get a menu order of previous menu order + 1. i think/hope this is finaly solved now!
• using wp_update_post when moving pages (instead of sql directly). this should make this plugin work better with some cache plugins, for example DB Cache Reloaded
• root of tree is added initially, without the need to run an ajax query. loading the root of the tree

• pages that the user is not allowed to edit now get "dimmed". they will still be visible becuase a page a user is not allowed to edit, may have a child-page that they are allowed to edit, so the sub-pages must still be accessible
• some problems with Ozh' Admin Drop Down Menu fixed (tree showed posts instead of pages)

• quick fix: capability edit_pages required to view the tree menu, instead of editor (which led to administrators not being able to view the tree...)

• added comment count to pop up
• added support for custom columns in pop up

• tree is activated for pages during install, so the user does not need to set up anything during first run

• Forgot to close a p-tag correctly. Now it should validate again!

• updated french translation
• new box for mouse-over/pop-up - please let me know what you think about it
• new box: it's bigger so it's less likely that you slide out of it with your mouse (happend to me all the time! very annoying...) .
• new box: more information can be fitted there. let me know if there is any information you would like to see in the popup (right now it will show you the last modified date + the id of the page)
• new box: edit and view links are real links now, so you can edit or view pages in for example a new tab
• new box: oh.. and it's much better looking! :)

• jquery.cookie.js renamed to jquery.biscuit.js to fix problems with apache module mod_security. let me know if it actually works! :)

• started using menu_page_url instead of hard-coding path to plugin
