DLM Dashboard 1.2 release notes
Published 19 February 2015
1.2.6 - April 22nd, 2015
We've found that the concepts of projects and environments don't match how many of our users organize their databases. Because of that, in this release we've removed projects and environments - DLM Dashboard now groups databases by server instead. As an added bonus, this makes DLM Dashboard much quicker to set up.
Next release we'll add a new way to organize your databases, categories - so watch this space.
Features
- Group databases on the dashboard by server.
- The old concepts of projects and environments have been removed, along with filtering by projects.
Fixes
- Reduced the RavenDB cache size, which should improve performance.
- Improved the installer on non-English operating systems.
- Fixed an issue which made change details not appear correctly on emails.
1.2.5 - April 1st, 2015
This week we've made it a bit easier to add databases. How limits work has also changed: there are now no limits on numbers of projects and environments. There's a limit of five databases in total for new users, and thirty databases for existing users.
Features
- Add databases by selecting the name from a drop-down. No more typing in all your database names!

Fixes
- Improved the installer on non-English operating systems.
