We recommend that the apache server signature will be hidden. Set the following settings in the /Node/etc/httpd/extra/httpd-default.conf file:

Enhancement RT56609 Link to this entry

Multichannelling contentrepositories have now a new option to choose between differential check for removed objects (which is faster) or the full check (which is saver) on every publish run. The default value is the differential check. Additionally, the number of SQL statements necessary to publish an object into a multichannelling contentrepository has been reduced to improve performance.

Bugfix RT56498 Link to this entry

Moving pages/files/folders: Fixed multiple issues

  • Files couldn‘t be moved to inherited channel folders
  • Folders/pages: Folders were selectable, even tho when the user doesn‘t have permission on the folder (However the permission was checked when clicking)
  • Folders: Moving folders to inherited/localized folders didn‘t work.
  • After moving an object, the folder changed to the new folder, but the selection in the tree didn‘t update.

Bugfix RT56251 Link to this entry

Previously, in the page translate view, syncing of scrollbars didn‘t work if the lower page contained an iframe and Aloha Editor was not used. Now, syncing works under these conditions, too.

Previously, a task scheduled to be executed after another task finishes would sometimes start twice at the same time. Now it will only start once.


Bugfix RT56642 Link to this entry

Accessing the table dependencymap2 has been optimized to avoid synchronization between threads when using multithreaded publishing. This will increase the overall performance of a multithreaded publish process. As a side-effect, the table dependencymap2 is no longer locked during a publish process.


This Gentics CMS version includes the Aloha Editor 0.23.21 – 04.10.2013
