Hi all,

We've just made available the next release of YetiShare via your account on yetishare.com. If you login (and still within support) you'll see the link to download it.

You can see it running on our demo site:

- http://fhscript.com (login with user: 'admin' & pass: 'password')

The main changes include the ability to allow non/free users to use download managers (including resume), bulk delete files in the members area & admin area, support to use the main site url for external file servers, performance improvements and loads more.

Any feedback or bug reports are welcome. We'll not be adding any new features to this release but if there's bugs to fix we'll be keen to get them resolved before moving out of beta.

As with any release, make sure you backup your site and database before making any changes. :)

To upgrade your existing codebase, upload the /install/ folder and see the 'Perform an Upgrade to an existing install' option.

Regards,
Adam.
