ManagerManager 0.4: A New Release for Backend Workflow Tweaks

A short extras release note for ManagerManager 0.4 and the period when its widget-based manager customization became a standard part of many Evolution CMS projects.

ManagerManager 0.4 marked another step in the extra’s evolution from a handy tweak collection into a real backend workflow toolkit.

Why this release mattered

By this point ManagerManager was already a standard answer whenever a project needed the manager to behave differently for editors: hide fields, move fields, constrain input, inject defaults, or streamline the document form.

Context around the release

The donor announcement also highlighted the launch of the DivanDesign code repository, which mattered because it made ManagerManager and related tools easier to follow and maintain as a family of backend enhancements.
