Please make sure your non admin BE users still have access to all fields. You might need to change permissions of your BE user group.

Update from 0.3.2 to 0.3.3

As there has been some changes to the RTE (IRRE description field) processing you probably need to link your hyperlinks within the RTE text again. At least if you like to have proper (RealUrl aware) links and not wrong ones like: http://domain.com/index.php?id=123

Update from 0.2.0 to 0.3.0

Some template marker have changed to match extension marker naming more precise:

• ###WIDTH### to ###IMAGE_WIDTH###
• ###HEIGHT### to ###IMAGE_HEIGHT###

No other changes necessary, but recommended (TS option marker is more useful than damMarker ).
