Version Not showing Beta

[mrm]

@Lordpickleboy

I am using unraid and i have it set to install beta branch but when I look it still shows V1.1.0

This is expected! The latest-and-greatest version is the stable build, v1.1.0.

All tags (:alpha, :beta, and :stable) all point to this same version of the code.

I manage PhotoStructure tags a bit non-traditionally:

• all alpha, beta, and stable builds get tagged with :alpha
• all beta and stable builds get tagged with :beta
• only stable releases get tagged with :stable and :latest

This strategy lets people get the best build given their risk tolerance, and not have to worry about changing their tags between :stable and, for example, :beta.

Please don’t use :alpha (or maybe even :beta!) for your “primary” library, though!

This is why: https://forum.photostructure.com/t/alpha-beta-stable-and-latest-what-should-you-use/274#upgrades-are-easy-downgrades-not-so-much-2

The next build will be an :alpha build, v2.0.0-alpha.1, and it’s expected to be a bit “rough around the edges.” A lot changed: literally every dependency got upgraded, new Node and Electron runtimes got pulled in, frontend routing was heavily refactored for keep-alive support, … (see the release notes for all the gory details!)

Also non-traditionally: I update the release notes as I make changes to the development branch, not when I release the version.

If the release date by a version says “to be released”, I haven’t shipped that version yet:

this lets any interested users see what’s “coming soon.”

I also was curious how when we could hopefully see a fix to allow for you to go forward and backwards inside a folder

Oh man, apologies–this bugs me too. The issue is being tracked in a couple topics:

The Next/Previous buttons in the asset view ignores search results

If you click Next/Previous button after you opened an asset from the search results it doesn’t go to other asset from the search result, it goes to the next/previous asset chronologically in the library ignoring the search query

and

Tag-context browsing

When clicking on a thumbnail, the asset page should retain the tag context for “next” and “previous” assets. As an example, when you navigate to Who/Smith/Alice, and click an image of Alice, the navigation buttons should go to the next-younger and next-older assets tagged with Alice. (The current implementation always defines “next” and “previous” by chronological order). Switching this context can be done via the bottom streams panel, or a new pulldown added to the asset header. (Taken from th…

I want to address this in the following release, v2.1.
