Bugfix SUP-7917 Link to this entry
When editing a page in the old UI and clicking into the repository browser while selecting a link target for example the current editable was disabled. This would also remove possible editing helpers rendered for tables. When the editable was very large and the user had scrolled to the position where the link should be inserted, this could cause the repository browser to be moved out of position. The issue has been fixed now, clicking into the repository browser will no longer deactivate the current editable and the repository browser will stay in place.

If a channel is currently opened in the item list and the ID of an inherited page is entered in the search bar for a quick jump, the UI will now go to the page in the current channel and only jump to the master page if no page with this ID exists in the current node/channel.
Bugfix SUP-7338 Link to this entry
Due to a race condition, sometimes dependencies of pages were not correctly stored for all channels in a multichannelling environment. This subsequently caused the pages not being dirted for all channels if some of their dependencies were changed. The incorrect storing of dependencies was fixed. However this fix will not correct already incompletely stored dependencies. Incompletely written dependencies will be corrected if the pages are republished for all their channels.
Bugfix SUP-8197 Link to this entry
When moving files or pages into channels, the check for uniqueness of name/filename was not performed correctly, which could cause duplicate filenames (and errors in the publish process because of the duplicates). The uniqueness check has now been fixed to prevent moving of files/pages into channels, if conflicting files/pages already exist.

Enhancement SUP-6599 Link to this entry
GCN JS Api: When using TagAPI.save() it was not possible to pass options to the save REST-call, to influence the locking or version creation of the underlying page. With this fix the TagAPI.save() method uses the same method signature as the PageAPI.save() method, with an optional settings object as the first argument.
Bugfix SUP-7872 Link to this entry
The tag status dialog for templates has been extended:
- A new column “Incompatible pages“ has been introduced to show the number of pages using a tagtype, which is incompatible with the tagtype used by the template
- The button “sync with pages“ has been replaced by actions “Sync with compatible pages“ and “Sync with all pages”
Some fixes regarding the tag status and synchronization have been made:
- The tag status dialog will no longer count pages in the wastebin
- An import that changes a template will no longer migrate incompatible pages. If an import could not migrate all pages, this information will be shown in the list of imports.
- Published pages will be republished after migration in all cases now.

When synchronizing objects into devtool packages, the order of some element lists might change, which could cause unnecessary conflicts when merging with other changes with the use of a version control system (like git).

When publishing a node and channels into a Mesh Content.Repository, new images and files were initially written into all branches of the Mesh project, but removed with the next publish run. If a channel had publishing into Content.Repositories completely disabled, this could cause errors in the publish run. This has been fixed now.
Bugfix SUP-7646 Link to this entry
When an error occurs while synchronizing a template from a devtool package into the CMS (e.g. because a construct used in the template does not exist in the CMS), the template was left locked, and that state was not immediately visible in the UI due to a caching issue. This has been fixed now, the template will be unlocked in case of errors.

When synchronizing datasources from a devtool package with an entry having dsid 0, the dsid was changed to another value (most probably 1), even if this dsid was used by another entry. This resulted in the CMS not showing the entry, which originally had dsid 0 in the UI. The incorrect synchronization has been fixed. Incorrect values in the database either need to be fixed manually, or by another synchronization of the devtool package from the filesystem.

The transformation of those global IDs into Mesh UUIDs has been changed, which means, that affected objects need to be removed from the Mesh CR manually and republished. The ContentRepository action “Check data” will detect such Mesh nodes. - When publishing multiple channels into a Mesh ContentRepository, the publish process could fail with various errors.

A page refresh would have be required to go to the linked address. This has been fixed.

Tagmap entries with the same name but for different object types would be shown as “inconsistent“ if they were different in attributes, which had no relevance for the entry type (e.g. different targetType setting for entries of type “text“). This resulted in “conflicts” which could not be resolved and has been fixed now.

Synchronizing template tags with pages behaved inconsistently: Missing tags were only added to pages, which also contained tags that needed to be migrated (because they used different constructs). This has been fixed now, when synchronizing template tags with pages, this will:
- Create missing tags
- Migrate existing tags to the construct used in the template
- Remove superfluous tags (tags that came from the template, but no longer exist in the template or are no longer editable in pages)
Synchronization of template tags with pages can be triggered via
Template|Tag list
(Actionsync with pages
)Template|Define tags
(ButtonApply and sync with pages
)Template|Tagstate
(Buttonsync with pages
)

When an import changed only tags of a template, but no properties of the template itself (like the name or source), the editor and edate of the template were not modified. This has been fixed now.

Some errors regarding permission setting while publishing into a Mesh CR have been fixed:
- The datasource entries imported from Mesh CR into the roles datasource will no longer contain the uuid‘s of the roles.
This allows migration of the datasource entries between systems that publish into different instances of Mesh. - Setting multiple roles on an object in the CMS did not work (roles were not set in Mesh)
- The publish process will now also set READ permission on the Mesh projects (for roles that have READ_PUBLISHED permission on at least one object in the project)
