What’s new in XS version 29

Version 29 introduces many new functions and improvements. To name a few, automated data processing and gallery processing now configurable from within Back office, similar files based on keyword commonality, support for Google icons, comp images from the thumbnail pages, multiple licences for RF files and coupons/promo codes

Metadata processing

Create and maintain data processing rules from within XS backoffice. Data processing rules can be used to clean up fields, create search filters, apply file properties, rank files, add synonyms and replace preferred terms.

Gallery processing

Create processing rules to automatically create new galleries and/or to automatically update existing galleries.

Similar files

Automatic generation of lists of similar files based on keyword commonality. XS keeps track of unique keywords and separately stores in which other files each keyword exists. This is used to display live suggestions, keyword index pages – and now also to display similar images on preview pages.

Google icons

Use the scalable Google icons font for your thumbnail and preview page buttons.

Multiple RF licences and coupon codes

You can now create multiple licences for RF collections, which allows you to use different prices depending on use – even with Royalty Free files. For example, a high res file for Print/Editorial can be priced differently than the same file for Online/Commercial use.

We have furthermore added a coupon (or promo code) system. Users can apply their code in the check out stage on the cart page for a discount.
