The Bricolage development team is pleased to announce the
release of
Bricolage 1.8.6. This maintenance release addresses numerous minor
issues in Bricolage 1.8.5 and adds a number of improvements,
including
SOAP, document expiration, and bric_queued fixes. The most
important
changes include:
Improvements
* Added JavaScript code to validate that the username in the user
profile does not have leading or trailing spaces. [David]
* Events in the event log are now returned (and displayed) in
reverse
chronological order. [David]
* The SOAP server now uses a user's template sandbox when
executing
previews (such as with bric_soap --to-preview workflow publish).
Reported by Marshall. [David]
* Bric::Biz::Workflow now caches calls to allowed_desks().
This will
allow desks to render much Faster, since most assets on a desk
will
list the same desks in the "Move to" select lists. [David]
* When the PUBLISH_RELATED_ASSETS bricolage.conf directive is
enabled, aliases are now also republished. Only aliases that have
previously been published will be republished, and only the last
published version will be republished, rather than any versions
created since the last publish. Suggested by Serge Sozonoff.
[David]
* A story or media document published with an expire date earlier
than the scheduled publish time no longer bothers with the
publish
but just expires the story or media document. [David]
* Media documents without an associated media file will no
longer be
displayed in the search results when attempting to relate a media
document to an element. Reported by Adam Rinehart. [David]
Bug Fixes
* Form validation and group management now properly work in
the user
profile. [David]
* The SFTP mover now works with bric_queued. [David]
* Cloned stories now properly set the published_version
attribute to
undef rather than the value of the original story, thus
preventing
the clone from having a published version number greater than its
current version number. Reported by Nate Perry-Thistle and Joshua
Edelstein. [David and Nate Perry-Thistle]
* When a category is added to a story that creates a URI
conflict,
the new category does not remain associated with the story in the
story profile after the conflict error has been thrown.
Reported by
Paul Orrock. [David]
* Contributor groups created in the contributor profile are no
longer
missing from the contributor manager search interface.
Reported by
Rachel Murray and Scott. [David]
* The favicon.ico works again. [David]
* Stories are now properly expired when the BRIC_QUEUED
bricolage.conf directive is enabled. Reported by Scott. [David]
* When a template is checked out of the library and then the
checkout
is canceled, it is no longer left on the desk it was moved
into upon
the checkout, but properly reshelved. Reported by Marshall.
[David]
* Super Bulk Edit now works for media as well as stories.
Reported by
Scott. [David]
* When a template is moved to a new category, the old version
of the
template is undeployed when the new version is deployed to the
new
category. The versions in the sandbox are properly synced, as
well.
