Features

• Switched over to p4a.subtyper use (Rocky Burt)

• Added smart folder criteria option for the object_provides interface so it’s possible to add a smart folder that queries all activated links. To use this simply add a new smart folder and add a “Interfaces provided” criteria option. Then type in the full string name of the interface you want to check, which in this case would be: p4a.plonevideoembed.interfaces.IVideoLinkEnhanced (Rocky Burt)

• Whenever ATLink’s (and anything that provides IAnyVideoLinkCapable) are added/modified, they are scanned to see if they contain known video site info, and if so, automatically activated as a video link. (Rocky Burt)
