The 2.0b39 “Clean Sweep” update makes a few interface changes and fixes
several bugs:
The "Remove theme" button (broken in versions 2.0b37 and b38) now works
properly.
The default sort order is now "most recent" in the page edit screen's
library tab for images, documents, audio/video and people.
Fixed a bug that caused any image assigned as both a link image and a
gallery image to appear first in the gallery, no matter what its
priority. Such images are now properly sorted by priority.
The "link URL" field is now ignored for gallery images so that the
enlarged image is properly displayed.
Fixed a bug under Internet Explorer 6 that prevented the priority slider
from sliding properly for library items from sliding properly on page edit
screens.
Fixed a bug under Safari and Firefox that occasionally prevented some
controls from initializing properly on library forms in the page edit
screen.
