Bricolage 1.10.5 Released
2008.04.29
The Bricolage development team is pleased to announce the release of Bricolage 1.10.5, the latest in the stable 1.10 line of Bricolage. This maintenance release includes important new features and improvements that will improve your Bricolage experience both behind the scenes and in direct use. Some of the highlights include:
JS Quicktags WYSIWYG editor.
Greg Heo integrated JS Quicktags for easy insertion of HTML tags into a content area either at the cursor, or around a selection.
Internal Information-handling Improvements
The logic that handles category display, related media display and finding related objects has been improved to produce more intuitive results. Search results have also been improved by fixing the caching of searches that produce errors.
Workflow Improvements
The Slug
field is no longer required if the bricolage.conf directives ALLOW_SLUGLESS_NONFIXED
and AUTOGENERATE_SLUG
are disabled and enabled, respectively. Also, when the ENABLE_CATEGORY_BROWSER
bricolage.conf directive is enabled (it is enabled by default), categories can be deleted immediately on Save
or Check In
when the delete checkbox is set. This is an improvement over the previous method of requiring the explicit Delete
button press.
SOAP Improvements
The SOAP interface has been improved by including some pre-checks for data sanity before saving to the database (saving a potential error generated by database constraints), patched to play nicely with LWP 5.810 and later, and corrected for a bug that had the published_version
of templates deployed via SOAP set incorrectly.
