- Magic Fields works fine with the next release of WordPress (v3.0)
- removed phpthumb, and was added a specific functions for make the same things to phpthumb would do, this means to magic fields is now 7000 lines more lightweight
- added a new type of field (markdown text field)
- Prototype framework is not used anymore, now magic fields only use jquery
- Implemented new shortcodes for use the content of the magic fields inside of a post
- Magic Fields now is avalaible in spanish and was added the .po and .mo files for translate MF in more languages.
- integrated the changes made by the “living stories” team for magic fields works well with ”living stories project“
- added a new option for delete the cache of the images (for avoid overweight in the cache folder)

[UPDATE] Someone reports a bug related with the images and how are resized with the new functions of magic fields, and Edgar just fix it, if do you has the same issue for fix it you just needs replace the function called aux_image for this one http://gist.github.com/421939 (the function is in the file called get-custom.php on the line 366) and now all should be work smoothly.
The version 1.4.1 was released and fixed this issue. 
And in another hand, someone missed phpthumb in magic fields for that was added a little article in our wiki for know how restore phpthumb in this version of magic fields (for now the article is only in spanish, we hope to someone help us to translate the article to english) the article is here
Anyone know how I get get only one thumb via magic fields? See my post on the google groups for code. http://groups.google.com/group/magic-fields/browse_thread/thread/5e0dc61795d8f191
Is there an upgrade script from flutter 1.1 to MF version 1.4.1? Thanks
MAJOR BUG DISCOVERED!
When you use custom post types with magic fields enabled it disables management of custom post types.
Any time you publish a custom post type it is grouped into the default “posts” table. DO NOT USE WITH CUSTOM POST TYPES.
Hi Leland check this http://wordpress.org/support/topic/magic-fields-does-not-work-with-custom-post-types
MF isn’t working in WP 3 with the Network option enable… I’m getting this:
Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: First argument is expected to be a valid callback, ‘Array’ was given in C:\server\dev\wp-includes\plugin.php on line 395
Hi
I’d like to reiterate Sebases’ question, if I upload images via Magic Fields, when I delete the page later, will the script remove the related images and thumbnails etc? or will they be left stranded on the server?
Thanks

Hey Jepser I am getting the same…lots of problems with Magic Fields and PHPThumb in WordPress 3.0 and multi site Network option enabled
Hi Jepser and Andy I am going to check it (MF + WP Network)
Hey Hunk
Any news on the broken images and MF + WP Network issues?
Will it be fixed if I revert back to an older version of magic fields?
Hey! Where are the .po & .mo files located?
