Gentics Content.Node Changelog Summary

Gentics Content.Node 5.19.2


Optional Manual Change

Java 8 Runtime Support

Java 8 JRE support for Gentics Content.Node 5.17.x and newer was added. You can update the used Java version to Server JRE 8u25 64 bit by downloading the ‘Server JRE 8‘ package and extracting it in e.g. /Node/. Update the /Node/java symlink to point to the new ‘Server JRE‘ directory. Restart the Apache Tomcat server once you finished this step using the /Node/bin/nodectl script.
Please note that is change is optional and can be omitted.


Documentation RT58712

Corrected paths for cleaning up unneccesary directories when performing the RHEL GCN package migration


Bugfix RT58735

Fixed accidentally cutting off a filename extension. If a filename is changed in the CMS in the file properties and the new filename has no filename extension, then the previous filename extension (if any) is attached to the new filename.


Gentics Content.Node 5.19.1


Bugfix RT58617

Changing a datasource with an import failed to dirt dependent objects. This has been fixed now. If the import changes entries of a datasource, dependent objects will be dirted.


Bugfix RT58672

The memory consumption of the timetrigger script (used for time based workflows) has been reduced.


Bugfix RT58651

The assignment of languages to nodes was imported with the language, but not with the node:

  • if only the language was imported (without nodes), the node assignment was modified to match the assignment of the source system
  • if only the node was imported (without languages), the language assignment was not modified
  • if a new node was imported, that had a new language assigned, the language was not assigned to the node

The behaviour has been changed now, so that the language assignment is changed, when the node is imported.


Bugfix RT58713

Fixed curl printing debug output to error.log when the PHP curl extension is enabled.


Gentics Content.Node 5.19.0


The import2 and export2 features are now enabled by default. The older import/export implementation is no longer supported and can‘t be used any longer.


Aloha Editor Change Summary
The Aloha Editor textcolor plugin now allows you to set the background-color of text.
See the Aloha Editor Changelog for detailed information.


Manual Change

The old Live Editor has been removed and can‘t be used anymore for editing pages. We recommend migrating your projects to Aloha Editor, otherwise inline-editing will not be possible anymore. Details about the editor migration can be found in the guides. Remove the following setting in your node.main.conf: $FEATURE[“superedit_page”] = true;


Feature RT58656

It is now possible to configure the default value for the IE Standards mode for all pages in the CMS. The X-UA-Compatible Header, that is added to every page per default, can now be set to a different value than “IE=7“. For configuration see the description of the feature “X-UA-Compatible Header Content” in the guides.


Feature RT58501

Image support enhancement: In older versions, only files that are supported by the Gentics Image Store were handled as images and put into the list of images in folders. This had the downside that their mimetype was set to “application/octet-stream“. This caused problems with some image types likes .svg because the browser couldn‘t display the image because of the wrong mimetype. Now all images that have a mimetype starting with “image/” will also be listed as images by GCN. Additional a notice will be displayed to the users when they try to select an image in the repository browser (image tags) that is maybe not supported by all browsers. When updating to this version, files that have already been uploaded in older versions will NOT be changed.


Enhancement KB2089

The Migration Tool now allows global tag type migrations that affect all objects of the selected types. See the Gentics Content.Node Guides for details.


Enhancement KB2089

When migrating tags for a single page and selecting the option Apply this migration to ALL pages using this page's template. there is now a new option Apply this migration to ALL nodes. If the new option is selected, all pages of all nodes will be migrated, not only the pages in the same node as the original page.


Enhancement KB2086

The new command line tool GlobalIdSync allows synchronization of global IDs of tagtypes, datasources and object property definitions between systems in order to be able to import those objects from one system to the other without creating unwanted duplicates.


Enhancement

The REST API has been extended:

  • /folder/move/{id} for moving a single folder
  • /folder/move for moving multiple folders
  • /page/move/{id} for moving a single page
  • /page/move for moving multiple pages
  • /file/move/{id} for moving a single file
  • /file/move for moving multiple files
  • /image/move/{id} for moving a single image
  • /image/move for moving multiple images

Enhancement RT58648

Added a new default blue Gentics stream for the login mask and the top header background.


Enhancement

The feature “multichannelling” has been enhanced, so that the inheritance of objects can now be configured.

  • Objects can be excluded from inheritance
  • Objects can be removed from selected channels

Please consult the Gentics Infoportal for further details.


Bugfix RM14644

Fixed the WebDAV fileuploader saving files with the wrong mimetype. Example: “image/png; charset=binary“ instead of “image/png”. The mimetypes of already uploaded files will be corrected in the database when updating.
