Bricolage 1.8.10 Released
2006.03.16
The Bricolage development team is pleased to announce the release of Bricolage 1.8.10. This maintenance release addresses a number of minor issues in Bricolage 1.8.9 and adds a few improvements, including persistent sort ordering on desks and the sorting of pending jobs by scheduled date. Other important changes include:
Improvements
The installer no longer prompts for the PostgreSQL system username if the PostgreSQL server is not running on the local box. It therefore also no longer becomes that user in such cases. This will simplify installing Bricolage onto a remote PostgreSQL server. [David]
When adding contributors based on a type that allows multiple roles, you no longer have to select the role if the contributor has only one role. Suggested by Phillip Smith. [David]
Bug Fixes
Fixed a 1.8.9 upgrade script that adds a foreign key constraint to the
element_member
table so that it properly tests for the foreign key constraint before it tries to add it. Reported by Wayne Slavin. [David]Refined a few other upgrade scripts, with thanks to Rod Taylor. [David]
Bric::Biz::Person::User loads again under bric_queued. [David]
Publishing via SOAP works again. It was broken in 1.8.9, where it would appear to succeed, but no story or media would ever actually be distributed. [David]
Sort ordering on desks is no longer forgotten over multiple pages of assets on a desk. Thanks to Phillip Smith for the spot! [David]
