# 🚀 Prompt Manager v2 Rewrite
|
||||
# 🚀 Prompt Manager v2 Beta - Now Available!
|
||||
|
||||
We’ve been hard at work on a **complete rewrite** of Prompt Manager.
|
||||
The new version brings over all features from v1, introduces a dark theme (v2 look), and adds **negative prompt support**.
|
||||
## ⚠️ IMPORTANT: BACKUP YOUR DATA FIRST!
|
||||
**Before testing v2, you MUST backup your `prompts.db` file!** The v1 to v2 migration is irreversible. Copy your `prompts.db` to a safe location before proceeding.
|
||||
|
||||
## ✨ What’s New
|
||||
- Unified dark theme UI (v2)
|
||||
- Table view (for power users) and Card view (for quick browsing)
|
||||
- Negative prompt field with clear highlighting
|
||||
- Streamlined toolbar & filters
|
||||
## 🎉 Beta Testing Now Open
|
||||
|
||||
We're excited to announce that Prompt Manager v2 is ready for beta testing! This is a complete rewrite with major improvements and new features.
|
||||
|
||||
### ✨ What's Working in Beta
|
||||
|
||||
- **🖼️ Gallery System** - Completely redesigned with improved performance
|
||||
- **📊 New Prompt Tracking** - Advanced tracking system with better metadata handling
|
||||
- **🎛️ 3 New Widgets** - Enhanced UI components for better workflow integration
|
||||
- **🎬 Film Strip View** - Visual prompt browsing with thumbnail preview
|
||||
- **🌫️ Smart Blur** - New blur option with customizable tag triggers for sensitive content
|
||||
- **⚙️ Settings Panel** - Comprehensive configuration options
|
||||
- **➕ Add Prompt Dialog** - Streamlined prompt creation interface
|
||||
|
||||
### 🚧 Still in Development
|
||||
|
||||
- **📋 Metadata Viewer** - Being ported from v1
|
||||
- **📁 Collections** - New organizational system coming soon
|
||||
|
||||
### ⚠️ Known Issues & Important Notes
|
||||
|
||||
- **⏳ Initial Stats Processing**: The first time you load v2, stats parsing can take **2-3 minutes** for large databases. We're actively optimizing this - it's one of the main reasons for the beta!
|
||||
- **🔄 v1 → v2 Migration**: We especially need testers who can help validate the migration process from v1 databases
|
||||
- The migration is one-way - once converted, you cannot go back to v1
|
||||
|
||||
### 📊 Beta Testing Focus Areas
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Database Migration** - Test the v1 to v2 migration with your existing data (after backing up!)
|
||||
2. **Performance** - Report initial load times and any performance issues
|
||||
3. **Gallery Functionality** - Test the new gallery with your image collections
|
||||
4. **Widget Integration** - Verify the 3 new widgets work in your workflows
|
||||
5. **Film Strip View** - Test thumbnail generation and navigation
|
||||
6. **Blur Feature** - Configure and test the tag-triggered blur system
|
||||
|
||||
