v3.0.0-beta.20

Structures have been radically transformed 🎉

• A structured collection (for example, "Pages") no longer requires a separately created and maintained structure. You can simply enable "structured" ordering on the collection.
• Structures intended for navigational purposes (that other kind) are now called "Navigations”. There's a brand new area for them in the Control Panel and they live in the navigation directory. They can contain links to arbitrary URLs or entries in any desired collections.
• More details can be found at #1445.

💡 You can migrate pre-beta-20 Structures with this command.

Filters and Data Tables were the stars of an episode of Extreme Makeover CMS Edition and have received a head-turning upgrade.

• Filters are more powerful, intuitive, and are in-line with the table search and any pinned filters for a nice and tidy UX.
• Filters can now be "pinned" for quick and frequent access.
• Active filters are now shown as adorable little dismissible badges.
• Groups of filters and search queries can now be saved as "presets” so you revisit them anytime you want.

And more!

• We built a brand new Link fieldtype.
• The Markdown field now has a dark mode if you’re into that kind of thing
• Tags that render forms (forms, user:login_form, etc) will use any leftover parameters as HTML attributes. (for example, id=“contact-form”. You can prefixing the parameter with attr: to set set attributes that collide with tag parameters.
• Tags that support conditions — like the collection tag — now support in and not_in that each accept arrays.
• Nested data is now shallow-augmented when JSON-serializing. (title, id, etc).
• A bunch of UX improvements like better buttons, better selects, better global search, better empty states, and better words.
• A bunch of bug fixes like the one that bugged you, the one that annoyed you, and the one you didn't know about.
