Changelog
1.2.7
- FIX: Data Object Fields in Blocks/Objects – Fixed data_object fields not rendering correctly when nested inside block or object fields by adding recursive data object collection in AssetManager and DataObjectController
- FIX: Attachment Data Validation – Fixed attachment validation logic to correctly handle the case where a schema exists but has no image/file fields, preventing numeric values from being incorrectly cleared
- FIX: Import Schema Parsing – Fixed data object import to parse YAML schema before validating attachment data, ensuring attachment IDs are preserved correctly during import
