Bug Fixes in LUNA 7.2

  • Fixed a bug whereby the Custom Media Fields weren't displaying in the Viewer's Detail View when the field name contained a space.
  • Removed the Copy Authority button in the Library's Authority Editor.
  • Fixed a bug in the Library's Custom Thumbnail tab search that caused images to link to records instead of adding them as custom thumbnails.
  • Repeating fields are cleared after each "Save" in Group Edit. Now, if a user clicks "Save" twice, the field values that are in field groups are not repeated in the record.

  • Theme selection added to Extended Collection Properties for All Collections context in the Administrator.
  • In the Administrator, Admins can now create accounts and an initial password.
