Gentics Content.Node 5.5.3
Manual Change When using Aloha Editor the AlohaRenderer will now also accept span-tags as valid root-tags
Prior to this change span-tags where not considered to be valid root tags thus the tags contents where automatically wrapped in a div. If you rely on this functionality this might now result in multiple tags being listed on the same line and lead to overlapping tag icons. Add wrapping div-tag to your tag implementations to solve this issue.
Enhancement
Added functional description for the Gentics Content.Node Integration Plugin.
Enhancement
The tag insert buttons within the gcn plugin can now be configured per editable. A whitelist configuration is used to show/hide specific tag insert options. The whitelist uses the tagtype keyword to filter the buttons/menu.
Example:
$ALOHA_SETTINGS_NODE[1]['plugins']['gcn']['config'] = array("tagtypeWhitelist" => array("link", "wikilink", "formspace", "htmllang", "myuncategorizedtagtype")); $ALOHA_SETTINGS_NODE[1]['plugins']['gcn']['editables'] = array( "#customEditableId" => array("tagtypeWhitelist" => array("myuncategorizedtagtype")), ".header" => array("tagtypeWhitelist" => array("link", "seitentag", "download", "upload")), "#GENTICS_METAEDITABLE_page_name" => array("tagtypeWhitelist" => array("fileurl", "breadcrumb", "lswitch")) );
Enhancement
Changed the single file uploader (and the file properties) to not print an error anymore when the filename length exceeds the limit of 64 characters. The filename will be cut automatically now. Also over-worked the character handling to be consistent with the character handling of the Rest-API file uploader (see the GCN 5.4.19 changelog).
Enhancement
The Media Library Integration ($FEATURE[‘file_fetch’]) has been enhanced: By setting $FILE_FETCH_EVAL = true; it is now possible to add dynamic part specific data to the FILE_FETCH_URL, like e.g. $FILE_FETCH_URL=“http://mediaserver/medialibrary.php?postback=”.urlencode($FILE_FETCH_POSTBACK_URL).“&keyword={\$part[‘keyword’]}”;
Enhancement
Set the feature force_javaparser_post to true in node.conf. This features forces PHP-requests to the javaparser to be sent as POST because there can be problems (for example really long custom form tagtype part templates not being rendered) when this is not enabled.
Enhancement
Enhanced the conflict message in the import when an object was excluded in the export and could not be found on the target system. It now includes the globalid of the object.
Bugfix
The workflow event “on page publish” and the event reaction “cn_page_proof” have been discontinued.
Existing workflows will be unaffected by this change. However, it is not possible to create new “on page publish” events or “cn_page_proof” reactions.
Bugfix
Fixed rendering of page versions that contain tags that have been deleted after the version was created.
Rendering of page versions with deleted tags resulted in an empty page to be displayed and an exception similar to the following to be thrown:
com.gentics.api.lib.exception.InconsistentDataException: Data inconsistent: Container {xxx} of Value {xxx, xxx} does not exist!
Bugfix
Fixed menu in the channel synchronization (Details) being wrapped at the folder menu item.
Bugfix
Fixed message dialog overlay in the tree navigation (instant messaging, system messages) always being on top of the frame instead on top of the current scrolling position.
Bugfix
Fixed problems when uploading files using the File Upload Plugin in Aloha Editor with Internet Explorer (any version) and a certain security level. Internet Explorer sometimes sends the full local path as filename when posting file uploads. Additionally, the path is not sent standard conformant, so that the receiving component is unable to determine the filename and will respond with an error.
Bugfix
Fixed the RestAPI Resource /rest/folder/getTemplates/ not having default values for the values sortby and sortorder. The default value for sortby is now “name” and for sortorder it’s “asc”. This also fixes the template ordering when creating a new page in Content.Node (alphabetical).
Bugfix
Fixed a but in Multichannelling, that caused data inconsistencies for folders, when they were created in localized folders and pushed into master folders. As a result of this data inconsistency, affected folders were no longer shown in the tree. This bugfix also repairs the data inconsistencies and will make the folders reappear.
Bugfix
After channel synchronization is done, the tree is reloaded to reflect possible changes in the folder structure.
Bugfix
When localizing object takes too long and is continued in the background, the user is now notified with an alert box.
Bugfix
Fixed many of the administration pages in the Portal.Node module throwing a SGB-error (pages including form elements).
Bugfix
Fixed duplicate globalid entries in the database that came with the release-package and can cause conflicts when importing exports. This bugfix removes the duplicate globalid entries
Bugfix
Fixed creation of unnecessary big statements during processing of dependencies that could possibly generate high load on the db server.
Bugfix
Fixed permission check for WebDAV: The command “Open” (for opening a folder in WebDAV) will only be shown for folders, where the user has permission to view, create, update and delete pages/files/images. This also fixes SGBs when users with insufficient permissions could open the folder in WebDAV.
Bugfix
Fixed uploading images or files via WebDAV: If another image/file with the same name already exists in another folder with the same publish directory, an SGB occurred and the upload failed. This has been fixed now. In cases of naming conflicts, the new images/files will be renamed by appending numbers (before the extension).
Bugfix
Fixed some of the page menu functions (like editing) not referencing to the right page when the page was opened via the history.
Bugfix
Fixed language icon being broken when translating a page and Gentics Content.Node doesn’t use the default .Node/ URL prefix.
Bugfix
Fixed Media Library Integration in the Tagfill dialog, when more than one Image URL Part exists.
Bugfix
Fixed cancelling a running export: During a long running calculation of dependencies, cancelling the export process did not work reliably. This has been fixed now, so that cancelling a long running export is possible at any time without much delay.
Bugfix
The performance of getting the list of constructs has been improved if a large number of constructs exist in the system.
Bugfix
Fixed the style of the special characters menu in the live editor menu not showing the special characters.
Bugfix
Fixed a javascript error that occured in some portal implementations within the frontend editing mode due to existing frameset layouts.
Bugfix
Fixed invalid channel_id for objects (pages/templates/files) that were copied in a master node, that caused some objects to not show in the export selection dialog.
Bugfix
Fixed exporting of channels with local templates that are only assigned to inherited folders. Such export bundles could not be imported, because there was always a conflict “Object does not have a target folder”.
Bugfix
Fixed display of pages, images and files that exist locally in channels and are exported.
Bugfix
Fixed follow on success checkbox didn’t show up as checked.
A follow-up scheduler task can be set to only run if the preceding task was a success. The checkbox for this setting is called “Follow on success”. Submitting the properties form for a scheduler task with the checkbox set (or unset) did update the internal setting, but when the properties form was opened again, the checkbox wasn’t checked. It was therefore not possible to determine whether the setting was enabled or not.
Bugfix
The changelog which will be displayed in the autoupdate dialog will now again show all changelog entries.
Bugfix
The scheduler autoupdate task will now fail when a manual change was detected.
Bugfix
Fixed bug in the Gentics Content.Node nodectl start/stop script to not stop the mysql server when ENABLE_MYSQL is set to 0.
Bugfix
Fixed the permission check on constructs while doing an import, which incorrectly denied permission on constructs.
Bugfix
Fixed exporting of the “inline editable” flag of construct parts, which always was exported as “false”.
Bugfix
Fixed importing of construct part names, which were missing.
Bugfix
Fixed exporting of constructs in channels: The constructs were incorrectly assigned to the channels, not the master nodes. This caused permission checking problems, after the construct was imported into another system. This fix also corrects the incorrectly set assignements.
Bugfix
Fixed display of pages when creating a new page variant, if multichannelling is used: The icons for the language variants of the pages did not have the language icons, which were now added.
Bugfix
Re-added the user and date, when a page was locked to the list of pages, when multichannlling is used.
Bugfix
Fixed a possible database deadlock, when pages were published (or put into the publish queue), while a publish process was running at the same time.
Bugfix
Fixed importing of localized language variants, which were incorrectly always detected as conflict (conflicting with their master).
Bugfix
Fixed a possible database deadlock, when pages were published (or put into the publish queue), while a publish process was running at the same time.
Bugfix
Fixed importing of local channel pages that use an inherited template that is not present on the target system. This will be detected as conflict now.
Bugfix
Fixed SGB when trying to create new nodes after having selected a (non-root) folder of another node.
Bugfix
Fixed moving of pages,images and files into localized/local folders in channels.
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog . This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.13 – 2012/06/15.
Gentics Content.Node 5.5.2
Enhancement
This feature is considered stable even though the full testcycle has been omitted to be able to add it to release 5.5.2.
Added features “redirect_check_referer” and “redirect_assume_https” for redirecting the request to load the latest version of Aloha Editor with an URL like /CNPortletapp/latest/…, if using an additional Apache to handle SSL. Normally, the redirect would be done relative to the incoming request, but if an additional Apache is used to handle SSL, the incoming request to the backend would not know about https:// and the redirect would be done to http://. To avoid this, it is possible to use the feature “redirect_check_referer”, which would let the redirector check the referer URL and use the schema and hostname from it. In cases, where it is not sure, whether the referer is always available, it is possible to also use the feature “redirect_assume_https” to always do the redirect to https:// and the hostname sent in the request header “Host”.
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog . This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.12 – 2012/05/24.
Gentics Content.Node 5.5.1
Bugfix
Some javascript guards were added to prevent javascript errors that could occure when a cached javascript file was not directly updated after the system update.
Bugfix
Fixed differential page import to remove folders that are no longer present in the filesystem.
Bugfix
The link browser window will now open centered. The lightbox color of the link browser was also changed to a more consistant white.
Bugfix
Fixed handling of requests to the REST API with an invalid nodeId: If 0 is given, this is handled like if no nodeId was given. If an invalid nodeId is given, the client will get an error response.
Bugfix
A bug within the object list was fixed. Previously the language of the last visited folder was displayed within the assistant when opening a folder in a node with no assigned languages.
Bugfix
Fixed exceptions like “com.gentics.api.lib.exception.NodeException: languageid not set” while publishing. Those exception had no functional consequences other than filling the publish logs.
Bugfix
Fixed error while exporting a contentrepository with a tagmap entry of type 4 (which is deprecated), when the new export mechanism was used.
Bugfix
Fixed exporting datasource with the new export mechanism, so that the export bundle can be imported on systems using the old import without errors.
Bugfix
The folder rest method create will now no longer throw a null pointer exception when no folderId parameter was specified.
Bugfix
A small padding was added to the bottom area of the main tree. Some browsers show a info bar within that area.
Bugfix
Fixed possible NullPointerException while publishing when using versioned publishing and multichannelling in combination.
Bugfix
Fixed applying of folder object properties to subfolders, which did not work.
Bugfix
Fixed setting of the folder startpage in folders that have been localized in channels.
Bugfix
Fixed publishing of page variants, when versioned publishing is used. Before this fix, it was possible that published page variants still rendered the old content, although another page variant was modified and published.
Bugfix
Fixed the handling of filenames within the gcn-fileupload plugin. Previously the filename was not determined correctly.
Bugfix
Fixed quickjump. Previously pages that were opened using the quickjump did not update the internal folder id reference. This caused multiple issues. The page settings did not contain the correct list of templates within the templates dropdown.
Bugfix
Fixed quickjump. Previously the assistant area between the free and the page was not shown. Now the assistant frame will be opened once a page is loaded.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug with the Repository Browser which would not allow to fill URL Parttypes of object properties.
Bugfix
Fixed possible rendering error when rendering a templatetag, that links to an overview over pages if multichannelling is used.
Bugfix
Changed the flash & Aloha Editor file uploaders (Rest-API) to automatically replace not allowed characters with _. The following characters are allowed in a filename and will not be replaced: a-z A-Z 0-9 ,.-()[]{}$ The umlauts ä ö ü Ä Ö Ü ß are replaced with ae oe ue Ae Oe Ue ss. Filenames are now also cut automatically (silent) to not exceed the limit of 64 characters.
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog . This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.12 – 2012/05/24.
Gentics Content.Node 5.5.0
Manual Change Enable the hardlink feature
The ‘hardlink_files’ feature is only working on 64Bit systems when the correct libgtx_fileutils library is enabled. We noticed that some systems have this feature enabled but the wrong library is enabled. Please check your ‘libgtx_fileutils’ file within ‘/Node/lib’.
Enabling the 64bit library will increase the publish performance and reduce load on most systems. Please note that enabling hardlinks may result in changed permissions of files that are beeing created within the /Node/node/content/publish/pub directory.
A faq which describes how to enable the fileutils can be found here: 64 Bit FAQ
Manual Change Adapt multilevel publish workflow implementations
Publishing a page using the REST API used a multilevel publish workflow, while publishing a page in the backend used the old single-level publish workflow. The publish behavior has been unified now. The default behavior is now, that publishing the page over the REST API or the backend will use the old single-level publish workflow. Implementations that required the multilevel publish workflow need to add the configuration setting
$MULTILEVEL_PUB_WORKFLOW[nodeId] = true;
in the /Node/etc/node.conf for all nodes.
Bugfix
The workflow event “on page publish” and the event reaction “cn_page_proof” have been discontinued.
Existing workflows will be unaffected by this change. However, it is not possible to create new “on page publish” events or “cn_page_proof” reactions.
Bugfix
Fixed rendering of page versions that contain tags that have been deleted after the version was created.
Rendering of page versions with deleted tags resulted in an empty page to be displayed and an exception similar to the following to be thrown:
com.gentics.api.lib.exception.InconsistentDataException: Data inconsistent: Container {xxx} of Value {xxx, xxx} does not exist!
Bugfix
Fixed menu in the channel synchronization (Details) being wrapped at the folder menu item.
Bugfix
Fixed message dialog overlay in the tree navigation (instant messaging, system messages) always being on top of the frame instead on top of the current scrolling position.
Bugfix

Internet Explorer sometimes sends the full local path as filename when posting file uploads. Additionally, the path is not sent standard conformant, so that the receiving component is unable to determine the filename and will respond with an error.
Bugfix

As a result of this data inconsistency, affected folders were no longer shown in the tree. This bugfix also repairs the data inconsistencies and will make the folders reappear.
Bugfix
After channel synchronization is done, the tree is reloaded to reflect possible changes in the folder structure.
Bugfix
When localizing object takes too long and is continued in the background, the user is now notified with an alert box.
Bugfix
Fixed many of the administration pages in the Portal.Node module throwing a SGB-error (pages including form elements).
Bugfix
Fixed duplicate globalid entries in the database that came with the release-package and can cause conflicts when importing exports. This bugfix removes the duplicate globalid entries
Bugfix
Fixed creation of unnecessary big statements during processing of dependencies that could possibly generate high load on the db server.
Enhancement
Modified handling of REST API requests without sid or with invalid sid. The response to such requests will now have http status 200 (OK), but will contain a responseInfo with responseCode AUTHREQUIRED.
Enhancement
The restapi fileupload parameters for methods /rest/file/createSimple and /rest/file/create were unified. The folderID parameter is now called folderId, nodeID is now called nodeId. Additionally you may now specifify a ‘databodypart’ parameter to tell the upload backend logic in which bodypart contains the upload data. The upload backend logic now also supports the blueimp jquery file uploader.
Enhancement
The gcn fileupload will now correctly encode the ‘filter-contenttype’ parameter. Previously this parameter was not encoded. Without encoding fileupload would not work when using the plugin through a Portal.Node bea weblogic application server.
Enhancement
The restapi can now be used to retrieve objects by using either the localid or the globalid. This affects the loading of pages, folders, file, images and templates
Enhancement
It is now possible to import and export Channel specific data.
Enhancement
The tooltip show timeout was increased. The tooltips will now display when 900ms of time have passed.
Enhancement
The menu transparency was decreased. Previously the background content was visible through the menu entries.
Enhancement
The tagfill lightbox size was extended. It will now be wider and higher. Previously the lightbox had a larger border space which made it hard to read the lightbox tagfill content due to the implied size limitation.
Enhancement
The gravatar images can now be switched off by enabling the feature ‘no_gravatar’
Enhancement
The gcn context menu css was slightly modified. Previously the first context menu entry did not have a border at the top.
Enhancement
The item lists styles were slightly adjusted to allow the tooltip to be read when examing the last item within the itemlist. Previously the tooltip could not be read because it was shown outside of the visible area.
Bugfix
Fixed javascript error that occured within the new page dialog field.
Enhancement
The file, folder, image, page and template filelist search will now also update the displayed count in the assistant. Please note that the search is only affecting the current list type. This means searching within the page list will not update the count for images in the assistant.
Bugfix
The itemlist (e.g scheduler task list) now displays correctly in firefox. A firefox bug caused some rendering error when the item rows were highlighted. This bug was now workarounded.
Bugfix
A special Internet Explorer behaviour was workarounded in the multipart fileupload fallback. Previously the Internet Explorer 7 was posting the full path to the uploaded file instead of just the filename. The full path that contained special characters triggered the character filter on filenames and the upload was aborted.
Enhancement
The page name and page language (if existing) will now be displayed within the assistant when viewing a page.
Enhancement
The folder name and content language will now be displayed within the assistant when viewing a folder page list.
Enhancement
The assistant will now be hidden once the tagfill lightbox opens. The assistant will restored once the tagfill lightbox closes.
Bugfix
Fixed resolving of other parts in the get() method of an ExtensiblePartType Implementation when this is done in velocity (like $cms.page.tags.[tagname].parts.[partname].[property]).
Bugfix
Some i18n messages were corrected within the Gentics Content.Node UI.
Bugfix
Fixed creation of page variants when multichannelling is used. It is now possible to select pages from channels or inherited folders in channels.
Bugfix
Fixed display of new uploaded files, when using the multifileupload: Uploaded files will now be immediately visible in the file list, after clicking OK in the file upload dialog.
Bugfix
Fixed possible SGB when opening a page out of an inbox message and then starting to edit it.
Bugfix
Fixed display of channels in the repository browser: Sometimes channels were shown in the repository browser (but not in the tree), although the user did not have sufficient permissions on that channel.
Enhancement
The way the changelog is structured was changed. We’ll now only include the latest changelog in the update view all other changelog entries can be viewed here
Bugfix
Fixed a javascript error that ocurred when changing the language of a content page.
Bugfix
Fixed permission check for editing images within file list and tagfill dialog. The image manipulation button will only be displayed when the user has edit permissions on the folder in which the current image resides.
Bugfix
Fixed rendering of navigation or breadcrumb in an editable page: like rendering velocity parts, navigation and breadcrumb parts are rendered in a “non-editable” state.
Enhancement
Besides the already existing quicksearch for folders, it is now also possible to use the extended folder search, that can be found in the main menu (Search|Folders).
Bugfix
A resizing issue with the tree was fixed. Previously the tree collapsed when editing some pages. This bug only occrred when the aloha010 feature was disabled.
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog . This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.11 – 2012/05/10.
Gentics Content.Node 5.4.22
Manual Change In version 5.4.19 the template mimetype was changed from text/js to text/javascript. This change was reverted due to an incompatibility with Gentics Portal.Node. This incompatibility was resolved for Gentics Portal.Node releases that were made after Update 11927 2012-03-02.
Once you have updated your Gentics Portal.Node installations you can execute the following sql statement within your node database to apply the change. The incompatibility caused pages that were created with the text/javscript mimetype to be displayed incorrectly within any portal that serves pages using the GenticsContentPortlet.
UPDATE ml SET contenttype = 'text/javascript' WHERE name='JavaScript';

Security Update
A security issue with the Gentics Content.Node session has been resolved.
Bugfix
Fixed imagemanipulation window doesn’t close automatically and causes an SGB in the main window when opened from the tagfill dialog.
Bugfix
Fixed possible deadlock when (long running) job to change template of pages was running parallel to the publish process.
Bugfix
Fixed out of memory error that occured when resizing image with the image store that exceeded a width or height of 20000 pixel and more. The genticsimagestore will now only allow resizing of images with a width and height of 10000 pixels max.
Bugfix
Fixed page versioning creating a new version of a page when the page is moved to the publication queue (for users without publication rights) and the page wasn’t modified.
Bugfix
Fixed NullPointerException that occurred when pages were created through the REST API.
Bugfix
Fixed changing the template of multiple pages in the background only changed the first template of the first selected page.
Bugfix
Made the Content.Node file uploader (including Rest-API) checks more consistent.
They now all check if the filename length does not exceed 64 characters and if the characters in the filename are all valid (no whitespace, …) Allowed characters in the filename are: a-z A-Z 0-9 – _ .
Bugfix
Fixed StackOverflowException during publishrun.
Bugfix
Fixed Javascript error that occurred in the Live-Editor Wiki mode with IE7.
Bugfix
Removed double ; at the end of the SQL query when checking an empty content repository (CR creation).
Bugfix
Fixed html linebreaks being removed when opening a tag with a part of a HTML type which is inline editable and the feature “live-br2nl” is turned on.
The feature “live-br2nl” is now only used for none-HTML tagtype-parts.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug that sometimes occurred when images were published into the content repository.
The bug was caused by the wrong object type (10011 instead of 10008) being used when images were published into a content repository.
Bugfix
Fixed tags inserted via the tag-fill-dialog and rendered via a Velocity part can’t be edited after the tag-fill-dialog closes.
Bugfix
Changed the ETA displayed for the publish duration time in the Gentics Content.Node startpage to be more human readable.
Bugfix
Changed the outdated mimetype text/js (not used anymore) to text/javascript when creating new pages.
Bugfix
Revived the “edit in language” option in the menu of a page in the page view and also moved the object properties back to the main menu.
Bugfix
Tag icons are now directly visible. Previously tag icons were only visible once the mouse was moved.
Bugfix
The tag fill lightbox will now no longer close once ESC key is pressed. Clicking in the shadow area of the lightbox will also no longer close the box. Previously the lightbox could be closed accedentialy by clicking in the wrong place. All changes were lost.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug within the multifile uploader which caused all uploads to be created with the default mime type application/octet-stream. The uploader will no determine the mimetype by examing the file extension and other information when no mimetype was specified by the browser.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug in multichannelling, that caused an SGB when deleting a channel and left inconsistent data in the database, that possibly caused other problems.
Bugfix
Fixed current content is displayed in older page versions.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug in multichannelling, that prevented assigning of channels to contentrepositories.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug that cuased the Aloha page not to be rendered in Aloha mode (page can’t be edited) if an extensible part type is used in the page to resolve properties.
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog. This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.8 – 2012/04/04.
Gentics Content.Node 5.4.16
Bugfix
Fixed an error that prevented restoration of page versions.
Bugfix
Fixed NullPointerException that occurred when pages were created through the REST API.
Bugfix
Fixed edit page link in the Assistant of the Aloha-Editor mode broke the page layout.
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog. This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.7 – 2012/03/07.
Gentics Content.Node 5.4.15
Manual Change The Apache HTTPD package has to be updated to the latest version.
- Download the self-executing installer package
- Execute the installer package with the root user
- The installer will ask whether the new configuration should be installed – please skip this step by pressing enter (the current configuration will be kept).
Bugfix
Fixed errors that were caused by missing folder or template objects during a publishrun with versioned publishing enabled.
Versioned publishing will render and publish the published content of pages that are included in other pages, for example via an Overview, or a Tag (page), or similar TagTypes that can include content from other pages, or via a Page variant.
Additionally, there were some changes concerning the versioning of pages.
First, the folder of a page has ben excluded from versioning. This means that the page will always be rendered in its current folder. For example, Changelog will render the name of the current folder even in an older version of the page. Before this change, the name of the folder where the page was when the version was created was renderd.
Second, the template of a page is still versioned, but should the template of an older version of the page have been deleted, the current template will be used as a fallback and a warning will be logged. To avoid this, never delete a template that may be used by older versions of a page.
These changes apply even when the versioned publishing feature is turned off.
Bugfix
Fixed the old file/image uploader default filename containing a space which causes the validation to print an error.
Seperated the headline and the filename translations.
Enhancement
The REST API page/restore restore versions was optimized to be more consistant.
Bugfix
Fixed internationalization in Aloha-Editor assistant frame.
Inserted an input validation for HTML for the tagtype properties when the “validation” feature is turned on.
See: Validation
Enhancement
The page copy action performance was enhanced.
Bugfix
Fixed setting of filetype when uploading Files via the REST API. If the filetype is sent from the client, there is no auto-detection done on server side.
Bugfix
Fixed the action icons (for multiple item actions) not being shown anymore in some folder views (images, templates, …)
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog. This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.7 – 2012/03/07.
Gentics Content.Node 5.4.14
Manual Change The tagfill dialog will now only contain jquery version 1.6.1.
Previously two different jquery versions were loaded. This change may affect existing custom form tagtype implementations. Please note that loading a second jquery version by means of a custom form tag may cause unexpected issues with existing javascript features of Gentics Content.Node. We suggest using the new jquery version 1.6.1.
Bugfix
Fixed possible errors (EmptyStackException) during publish process when using multithreaded publishing together with multichannelling.
Bugfix
Fixed resolving of tag parts in custom part types, when the custom part type is not editable.
Bugfix
Fixed performing an import or deleting a part of a TagType hangs because of a missing index on the value_nodeversion.part_id column.
Enhancement
Removed most of the action icons from the page list view again (at the right side of the actionlist)
Bugfix
Fixed the old singlefile Content.Node 4 Uploader not taking file extensions with numbers in account. For example: sound.mp3, it didn’t add and check the file extension of the file automatically.
Added a search field and button to the repository browser for linking pages and files in Aloha Editor.
Bugfix
Fixed filling of tags with the new Minibrowser in the tagfill dialog when multichannelling is used: When an item is selected in the Minibrowser, the form will be posted and the tagfill dialog re-rendered. This is necessary for custom form tag implementations that need to be re-rendered whenever some other parts change.
Enhancement
A logout link was added to the selfupdate dialog. It is now advised to logout and login again after the update was completed. This step ensures that the interface of the update user will be loaded correctly after the system was updated.
Enhancement
When adding links to internal pages or files using Aloha, the path information of the pages in the search dropdown will no longer start with the Node name, because this is redundant information.
Bugfix
Fixed two SGB’s within the tagfill dialog. The first one occured when accessing the overview tagfill dialog. The second one occured when trying to upload file using the old file uploader dialog. These errors only occred while editing in frontend mode.
Bugfix
Fixed Gentics Content.Node redirecting to the login page when pressing the enter button in the Imagemanipulation properties sidebar.
Enhancement
Added name ‘inserttag’ for insert tag button for Aloha Editor’s gcn plugin to make it configureable.
Bugfix
When using firefox 10: The construct properties view will require Firefox 10.0.0.2 or later to display correctly. Older Firefox version (>10) contain a bug that prevents correct display of that particular view.
Bugfix
Fixed SGB that occured when accessing the node creation dialog directly after login.
Bugfix
Fixed links in the assistant frame open in the lower frame of the translation split-view when a page is translated.
Bugfix

Gentics Content.Node 5.4.7
Manual Change The permission check for the start-page setting for a folder was changed
Previously, the user only needed permission to modify the object property (object.startpage) to be able to set the startpage. Now, a user needs to have edit permission on the object property as well as edit permissions on the folder.

Gentics Content.Node 5.4.0
Manual change The FTP configuration within the node settings was removed. Please use scheduler tasks instead.
Here is an example task template that will sync a Node and the GenticsImageStore folder for that node:
/Node/bin/lftp -u "%user%,%password%" -e "mirror -R -L -e /Node/node/content/publish/pub/%ordner.node.host%%ordner.node.pub_dir% ./%wwwRoot%%ordner.node.pub_dir%;mirror -R -L -e /Node/node/content/publish/pub/%ordner.node.host%/GenticsImageStore ./%wwwRoot%/GenticsImageStore;exit" %targetHost% 2>&1
Manual change Fixed page-import doesn’t fill parts with cn_value keyword bug
The previous behaviour during a page import filled either a visible or editable part of an imported tag with the element contents. When the feature cn_page_import_fill_editable_part was true, an editable part was filled. Otherwise a visible part was filled.
This behaviour was contrary to the documentation, which states that the part with keyword “cn_value” is filled with the element contents.
The behaviour was fixed, so that “cn_value” will be filled, if it exists. If no such part exists, the import will fall-back to the old behaviour.
All tag-types that are used with the page-import must be checked for compatibility with the new behaviour. It must be ensured that, if there is a part with keyword “cn_value” in a tag-type, that it really is the part that should be filled during page-import, and not one of the other editable or visible parts.
Enhancement
The Gentics Content.Node backend ui was overhauled. This includes multiple changes on ui css and on some backend dialogs.
- All user related information are located at the top right cornor. Users may upload an avatar image to gravatar.com using their registered email adress.
- When navigating through folders changing the folder views has become more intuitive.
- Above page, file and image list a breadcrumb helps navigating.
- The main tree view can now be adjusted in width. The tree can also be closed permanently.
- Structure of rightclick submenues on page, file and image lists have been reorganized.
- Access to the real editor from the page menu has been removed.
Security Update
Fixed security issues.
Bugfix
Fixed non-transactional delete of tagtypes that caused data inconsistency.
When a tagtype was deleted, it was possible that template-tags or content-tags referring to the tagtype were left in the system, causing problems with the import/export feature.
Bugfix
Fixed system messages when a page is put back into revision. Only the ID of the pages that were put into revision were shown in the system message, now the name (incl. full path) + ID are shown. Additionally, too many messages were sent to the editor of the page: one message that lists all pages, and one additional messaeg for each page. Now, only the first message, that lists all pages, will be sent.
Bugfix
Fixed url generation within imagemanipulation2. Previously image/css/js urls were only working within cms and not within the portal.
Bugfix
Fixed omissions in user list when pages are being assigned for revision.
A previous fix to disable the paging of the list in the “assign for revision” dialog caused some users to be omitted from the list.
Bugfix
Fixed rare case when filename is ~62 characters long and the automatically added file extension was cutted (example: *.php → *.ph)
It now cuts the filename first so the file extensions always can be fully added.
Enhancement
The LDAP login field for groups can now be mapped with a string which should match the description of the appropriate CMS group.
Bugfix
Fixed the “publish” menu entries not being shown in the page menu when it was shown in the page list context menu (inconsistent behavior). It is now always shown.
Enhancement
The default maximum size of tag-values has been increased to from 100KB to 1MB.
This maximum is only in effect if the validation feature is turned on and configured correctly. The setting may be changed in the antisamy.custom.xml with the maxInputSize directive.
See this article for more information about the validation feature.
Bugfix
Fixed bug in GenticsImageStore which sometimes didn’t round calculcated proportional widths or heights of images correctly when doing image resizing.
Example:
/CNPortletapp/GenticsImageStore/150/auto/cropandresize/prop/22/0/964/674/
The resulting proportional height has been 104,87… which was incorrectly cutted down to 104px instead of 105px
Bugfix
Fixed: opening a WebDAV folder didn’t work with some OS and browser configurations
WebDAV folders are now opened with the IE Web Folder API. On Windows 7 IE8 file:// URLs are still used as the Web Folder API didn’t work in this configuration. The three methods to open a WebDAV folder are
- folder is opened automatically immediately on clicking open on a folder in the tree
- folder is opened by clicking the “here” link
- folder is opened by copying the “here” link and pasting it manually into a new browser window
These three methods were tested and work in the following configurations:
- Windows XP IE7
- Windows XP IE8
- Windows 7 IE8
- Windows 7 IE9
To force the use of the Web Folders API the feature webdav_use_file_url can be set to false (default true). To force the old behaviour of opening WebDAV folders the feature webdav_use_web_folders can be set to false (default true). The default is to use the Web Folders API except on Windows Vista IE8 and Windows 7 IE8.
If opening a folder doesn’t work on Vista or Windows 7, try installing this update
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog. This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.0 – 2011/12/29.
Gentics Content.Node 5.3.26
Enhancement
Changed the Node and Content Repository select field in “maintenance” to not have “All” as first item selected automatically.
Bugfix
Fixed: scheduler task execution during winter-time
A scheduler task with a start date during summer-time was scheduled during winter-time at every minute of the hour leading up to the actual execution-time. This means that the task potentiall executed 60 times instead of only once.
Bugfix
Fixed: inconsistency in value table
Deleting a tag-part by importing a tag-type, or restoring a page version, possibly resulted in an inconsistency in the value table. The inconsistency was an entry in the value table that referenced a part that didn’t exist.
This change fixes the deletion of tag-parts, so that whenever a tag-part is deleted, all values will be removed from both the current and the versioned value tables.
Additionally, the update procedure will remove all inconsistent values from both the current and the versioned value tables, to fix any existing inconsistency. Only unreachable values will be removed.
Added timeout for UrlIncludeImp connection pool. In rare cases the urlinclude imp could create a deadlock situation when the connection pool is full and no connection is avialiable for pending include actions. In that case the urlincludeimp waited until a connection was freed. In rare cases the connections were never freed thus causing a deadlock situation.
Bugfix
Fixed: A wrong error message which occured when trying to move a page into another folder where a page with the same filename already exists.
It now renames the file instead if printing an error message (in most cases).
Bugfix
Fixed a bug when publishing pages with timemanagement using the REST API: If page had a timemanagement set and was published using the REST API, it was published regardless of the current timeframe of the timemanagement. This is fixed now, timemanagement will now also be honoured when publishing pages using the REST API.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug where the Gentics ImageStore sometimes fails because of missing image mime type mappings.
Enhancement
The filepublisher will now fetch batches of pages instead of all pages at once. This will increase performance and reduce the memory footprint when writing files into the filesystem.
Bugfix
Fixed resolving of parts within the get method of custom part types.
Bugfix
Fixed file uploader not checking filesizes correctly (it always added ~600bytes to the actual filesize)
Enhancement

Bugfix
Fixed an exception thrown when accessing the REST API method /CNPortletapp/rest/folder/getItems/… with Content-Type:text/xml. It has to be noted, that the REST API method /CNPortletapp/rest/folder/getItems/… currently is not fully supported when using Content-Type:text/xml. The response currently will not contain all available data (like for Content-Type:application/json).
Bugfix
Aloha Page Servlet will now also provide construct id via Aloha.plugins.gcn.blocks[].constructid for Gentics Content.Node blocks.
For changes to Aloha Editor please see the Aloha Editor Changelog . This Content.Node version includes the Aloha Editor 0.20.0-RC6 – 2011/11.
Gentics Content.Node 5.3.20
Enhancement
The gcn repository will now only provide 100 results for autocompletion when using the link plugin to link files or pages. This prevents huge downloads for ambigous search terms.
Gentics Content.Node 5.3.19
Bugfix
Fixed: The REST API FolderResource calls to fetch items in folders recursively has been improved to use more efficient SQL statements.
Bugfix
Fixed a css bug with editicons in Firefox, where icons would have an unwanted offset. Also added zero border with to images within tagicons to prevent them from being outlined when inside an anchor tag. Therefore the following css classes have been changed: “.GENTICS_block .aloha-editicons button” (added borders and background) and .GENTICS_block .aloha-editicons button img (added border 0px).
Bugfix
Increased the timeout for AJAX calls to the REST API to be 60s (formerly 10s)

Bugfix
The default setting of the imagemanipulation2 contained an error that disabled the keep aspect ratio button.
Bugfix
The imagemanipulation2 will now display a messagebox whenever the user enters a imagesize that exceeds the given bounds.
Bugfix
The customform_resolve_nodetags feature didn’t work in the Portal.Node frontend

For example, the default configuration of the URL field of the link plugin will list only pages:
$ALOHA_SETTINGS['plugins']['link']['objectTypeFilter'] = array('website');
The repository browser will list files in addition to pages:
$ALOHA_SETTINGS['plugins']['gcn-linkbrowser']['objectTypeFilter'] = array('website', 'files');
Bugfix
When a page-import is performed, the user of all active sessions will be set to the user of the page-import.
Enhancement
The Aloha Editor’s format plugin functionality “removeFormat” may now be configured to remove more than the standard set of formattings. By default it will only remove the following html tags: ‘strong’, ‘em’, ‘b’, ‘i’, ‘cite’, ‘q’, ‘code’, ‘abbr’, ‘del’, ‘sub’, ‘sup’. You can however provide a different set of tags to be removed by adding your configuration as an array to the format plugin’s Aloha settings:
$ALOHA_SETTINGS['plugins']['format']['removeFormats'] = array('strong', 'em', 'b', 'i', 'cite', 'h1', 'h2', 'h3');
Enhancement
The table and commands plugin were added to the list of default aloha plugins. A guide on how to add additional plugins can be found here.
Enhancement

Enhancement
The sidebar can now be disabled using the following setting:
$ALOHA_SETTINGS[‘sidebar’][‘disabled’] = ‘true’;For more information please take a look at the aloha editor changelog.
Bugfix
Fixed: Clean-up of Aloha editables during initialization
Earlier, the generic and the santize content-handler were used to clean-up an editable when it was initialized. Now, no clean-up will be performed on initialization.
In particular, the generic content-handler performed transformations like turning a strong tag into a b tag, which was undesired.
Bugfix
The #nodeViews container in the assistant frame was set to a fixed width.
Enhancement
The Aloha Editor gcn plugin will now deliberately ignore magic links with a data attribute data-gcnignore=“true”
Bugfix
When using the Repository Browser in Aloha to get pages and files, the paging will now work correctly.
Bugfix
Searching for files from the Aloha-Link-Plugin URL-attribute-field will find files that don’t match the search text.
The Bug only occurred if file-search was configured for the URL-attribute-field.
Bugfix
When using Aloha 0.20 for editing, the language for Aloha UI is now the the CMS UI language for the current user.
Enhancement
The REST API calls to get objects in folders will now return numItems (total number of items) and hasMoreItems (true if more items are available), to support client side paging
Bugfix
When using the Repository Browser in Aloha to find pages, the sorting of folders was different than in the tree: folders starting with ‘[’ were sorted first in the Repository Browser, while they are sorted last in the tree. This has been fixed now, the sorting should be identical now.
Bugfix
When using the DiffResource of the REST API to calculate diffs between given HTML codes, using either method diff/html or diff/source, the templates used to render differences are now restricted to accessing Object Properties. It is no longer possible to invoke Methods of objects.
Enhancement
The REST API FolderResource has a new method getItems to get a paged,sorted list of pages,images and files

The topnav menu for the imagemanipulation2 view was fixed. Its now possible to access the object properties of the image.
Bugfix
Previously the pageimport didn’t delete files/pages when importing using the import_diff setting.
Bugfix
If the Tidy feature was used with the Live Editor, sometimes additional spaces were inserted into the content.
Bugfix
A OutOfMemory error did not release a database connection properly.
Its now possible to delete a contenttag with a new tag button within the edit view. The html structure of that tag icon container has changed. This will affect custom css that modify the tag icon position/behaviour.
Bugfix
Permissions on the root folder of a node are handled incorrectly
There are usually two entries in the perm table for the root folder of a node: an entry with o_type = T_FOLDER and an entry with o_type = T_NODE (both with o_id =
A quick workaround for this bug is clicking OK once on the page that lists the permissions for the root folder of a node.
When pages are published no notification messages are sent.
Bugfix
Notifications were only sent when a page was published from the publish-queue. Notifications were not sent when the user clicked on the page in the publish-queue, or navigated to the page, and published it outside of the publish-queue page (through the page-menu for example).
The new behaviour will always send notifications, no matter where the page is published or saved (put into revision), as long as the page is visible in the publish queue.
Templates that don’t have a doctype will get a default html5 doctype. The doctype will only be added when viewing the page in editmode. Preview and livemode are not affected. For more information please read this FAQ.
Enhancement
Enhanced UI: Icons for disabled tags are displayed with a translucent style
The change was made for the tag-list of templates and pages, to more quickly identify disabled tags.
Bugfix
SQLException during CRSync causes inconsistency
When a SQLException occurred during the attribute-prefetching phase of a CRSync, some attributes were not synced correctly.
The inconsistency can be repaired by updating the objects in the source repository.
The bug was fixed by aborting the CRSync should an Exception occur during the attribute-prefetching phase.
Bugfix
Viewing the differences between two version of a Page takes very long
An inefficient regex in the code that implements the DaisyDiff algorithm caused the Page that shows the differences to take a long time to load.
Bugfix
The DaisyDiff algorithm is now only used for pages with the text/html mimetype
Bugfix
Saving pages with the REST API will ignore selected options
Saving the selection of single-select and multi-select part is now implemented.
During this change, the ID, for options of single-select and multi-select parts, were changed to refer to an internal ID (called internally the “dsid”).
Enhancement
Query parameter “keyword” to the NewTag page REST Resource
You can either specify a constructId or a keyword now as query parameter (but not both).
Gentics Content.Node 5.3.11
Bugfix
Fixed issue with aloha page links. Previously only pages from the node with folder_id 1 (GCN5 Demo); where displayed within the dropdown list.
Bugfix
Fixed isses with the publish queue. Now it is no longer impossible to select multiple users across multiple pages when assigning pages to to users in the publish queue.
Bugfix
Fixed javascript error within the new imagemanipulation2 that occured on pageload.
Bugfix
Fixed error that occured when changing the template of multiple pages at once.
A velocity inline scope setting was turned off because it may cause too much memory consumption.
If the following Velocity setting is activated, macros will be saved in the namespace for each tag instead of the global namespace. Velocity apparently doesn’t clean up namespaces, which will cause too much memory consumption if there are many tags that use macros.
velocimacro.permissions.allow.inline.local.scope
Bugfix
Fixed a bug in the purgelogs task that prevented the jobrun table to be cleaned.
Bugfix
Fixed bug in permission checking system (when trying to delete all languages of a page with no language set).
Bugfix
Fixed bug where it does not check if contentset_id is 0 in the mini browser (it sometimes didn’t show all pages in page selection tags).
Bugfix
Fixed a bug that caused the filename extension to be appended to the filename on every save.
Bugfix
Fixed possible NPE when performing the action “Change Template”. This NPE could further lead to DB locks remaining open.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug in the REST API when a page with an overview is loaded and subsequently saved. If no selectedItemIds element is provided for an overview in a tag, it will be assumed to be the same as an empty selectedItemIds element.
Enhancement
Added css class ‘gtx-diff’ to CN’s <ins> and <del>, so they can be distincted from normal html code.
Enhancement
A new page diff algorithm was introduced:
The new Daisydiff algorithm can be enabled through the feature “useDaisyDiff”. It will than replace the standard linear-diff algorithm.
The difference between the algorithms is that the Daisydiff algorithm tries hard to preserve the tree-structure of the HTML page, while the linear diff will not.
Gentics Content.Node 5.3.5
Bugfix
Fixed the following issue: If the versiondiff (source-mode) processes a page where an opening angle bracket occurs in an HMTL comment or an HTML Tag, it will not be escaped, causing the result diff to break.
Bugfix
Aloha Editor Table plugin now features all-new table cell merge and split functionality
Gentics Content.Node 5.3.1
Optional manual change A new Aloha Editor major version was added
Added new Version 0.10 of Aloha Editor to Gentics Content.Node, which brings a load of new features like plugin bundles, dependency loading with requirejs and other improvements to your editing experience. Please refer to http://www.github.com/alohaeditor/Aloha-Editor or http://www.aloha-editor.org for additional and more detailed information.
Aloha Editor 0.10 may be activated by setting $FEATURE[“aloha010”] = true; and $FEATURE[“aloha”] = true; in your node.conf. You may continue to use Aloha Editor 0.9.3 though without enabling the new feature.
Manual Changes The Aloha Editor plugin API was changed
- Aloha Editor 0.10 will no longer expose it’s internal jQuery object through the $ and/or jQuery variables. You have to include your own version of jQuery if you relied on Aloha Editor’s version prior to this update.
- The “GENTICS_” prefix for CSS class names has been replaced by “aloha-”. If you targeted those specific class names in your implementation those need to be updated.
- The “GENTICS.Aloha” namespace for Aloha Editor’s JavaScript objects has been reduced to “Aloha” alone.
Please note:
- If you want to edit your pages using Aloha Editor a valid doctype has to be specified.
- As the plugin system has been fully rewritten in Aloha Editor 0.10 plugins you wrote for 0.9.3 will not work with the new version. See our documentation on how to edit plugin settings.
Please follow the steps that are described in our FAQ » “How do I enable the Gentics Profiler webapplication?” to enable the profiler webapp. Activation of the profiler is optional.
Added parameter “versioninfo” to REST API call /rest/page/load/ to get version information
Resolving node tags in custom-forms only worked in the tag-fill dialogue of content tags (pages). For template tags (templates) or tag-types, the entire custom-form was rendered as the empty string if the customform_resolve_nodetags feature was activated.
Now, if the custom-form is rendered as part of the tag-fill dialogue for template tags or tag-types, all will resolve to the empty string. Special custom-form tags (e.g.
Bugfix
Fixed possible deadlocks when publishing into contentrepositories that use Instant Publishing.
Bugfix
Fixed detection of deleted/moved/offline objects when publishing into ContentRepository: It was possible that object being deleted, moved or taken offline while a publish process was running, would not be removed from the contentrepository at all.
Bugfix
Fixed: when a Node had no languages assigned, and a user had the delete permission on only some, but not all folders, and the user tried to delete a page on which he had permissions, he was incorrectly informed that he didn’t have any permissions.
Bugfix
Fixed language management: It is no longer possible to delete page languages, if pages with that language exist.
The autoupdate dialog will now display the selected update policy which can be configured via the update_policy feature.
Bugfix
Fixed possibly misaligned top menu when switching multiple times between page preview (aloha mode) and taglist.
Bugfix
Fixed Import Errors when Importing from older Systems
Reduced z-index of resize handle for resizable lists. This prevents the handles shining through actions dropdown.
Linking a template to a new folder will now check for templates with the same name in the target folder and abort with an error message.
Bugfix
Fixed problems with template source view in IE6 and IE7
Enhancement
Aloha Editor package is no longer provided by Gentics Content.Node’s integrated Apache webserver, as it has been moved to the CNPortletapp
Enhancement
The autoupdate dialog will now display the selected update policy which can be configured via the update_policy feature
Bugfix
Fixed possible JS error when saving pages after changing an internal link to an external one using Aloha Editor
Bugfix
Fixed setting links to files using Aloha Editor: When pages are edited, that have links to files, the file information is correctly loaded and thus the link will be preserved
Bugfix
Fixed a bug with Aloha Editor that prevents internal links from being created
Enhancement
The Crop’n’Resize Plugin is no longer available for Aloha.Editor 0.10 as it was replaced by the Image Plugin
Gentics Content.Node 5.2.4
Bugfix
Fixed performance problems with too many failing backend logins.
Bugfix
When the GCNAuthenticationManager was configured as a secondary authentication system, it retried unsuccessful logins to the GCN backend on every request.
Logins to the GCN backend are unsuccessful if the user authenticated with the primary authentication system doesn’t have a GCN account (e.g. read-only privileges for the content in the portal, but no editing privileges in the GCN backend). Another reason may be that the GCN backend may be temporarily unavailable.
Retrying unsuccessful logins may cause performance problems if there are many users that can be authenticated with the primary authentication system but can’t be authenticated with the GCNAuthentication manager each request by the user (browser) would cause an additional internal authentication request.
A configurable interval parameter “backendLoginRetryInterval” has been added to the GCNAuthenticationManager configuration, which specifies how many seconds to wait before a failed backend login request is retried.
Bugfix
Fixed possible deadlocks when publishing into contentrepositories that use Instant Publishing.
Bugfix
Fixed an erroneously reports of insufficient permissions when trying to delete pages.
When a Node had no languages assigned, and a user had the delete permission on only some, but not all folders, and the user tried to delete a page on which he had permissions, he was incorrectly informed that he didn’t have any permissions.
Bugfix
Fixed language management: It is no longer possible to delete page languages, if pages with that language exist.
Enhancement
Introduced new translation workflow feature. This feature enables the editor of pages to manage the translation tasks. A editor can for example synchronize a page. This mean the editor accepts the translation job and marks the page therefore as synchronized. A overview is provided to review the current state of all translation tasks.
Enhancement
Introduced new versioned publishing feature which will change the publishing behavior.
Before this feature was introduced the publish process would render the current version of a a page not the last published one.
Example: There are two pages, a simple content page (A) and an overview page (B). The overview page contains an overview, page url, page tag or any thing else that references to the simple content page. An editor changes page (A) and will therefore modify its contents and change the current version of that page. A publisher now publishes page (B). When publishing page (B) the modified contents of page (A) will be used for rendering. This undesired behaviour could lead to unpublished content or dead links.
The versioned publishing feature corrects this behaviour. Now always the last published version will be used for rendering the page.
Example: Now the last published version will be used instead of the current modified contents of page (A).
The new publishing behavior will only affect pages that have been published at least one time after the feature has been enabled. The page version information has to be created before it can be used. The feature is enabled by default.
Bugfix
Fixed itemlist problems and adds more itemlist configuration options. Fixed: when the width of an itemlist was greater than the window size, the last column was not displayed.
Fixed: resizing a column may alter the table width, which may break the page layout.
New configuration options:
//If empty, the resizable itemlist feature is enabled for all pages. //If non-empty, the resizable itemlist feature is enabled only //for specific do numbers. $RESIZABLE_ITEMLIST_DONUMS = array(16003); //Allows the itemlist Javascript to be loaded lazily based on whether the //user-agent string matches this regex. The default will enable //lazy-loading for Internet Explorer up to version 6. $ITEMLIST_LAZY_LOADING_UA_REGEX = "/\bMSIE [1-6]\b/";
Bugfix
Fixed SQL validation error that occurred when the execution-list for a task was sorted by duration.
Enhancement
Allows a custom definition of the HTML doctype that appears in the application generated HTML.
The application generated HTML wraps the HTML defined in the user-defined implementation of content pages. The application generated HTML wrapper has a doctype. Due to this circumstance, when a HTML5 doctype is defined for the user-defined implementation of a content page, the page may not display properly. As a workaround, the doctype for the application generated HTML may be configured in the node.conf configuration file in the following manner – the doctype string should be equal to the one used in content-pages:
$CUSTOM_NODE_HTML_DOCTYPE = '<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "...">';
Please note that this will define the doctype of the wrapper-html, for all content-pages in the system, regardless of which node they belong to. Changing the doctype might break the system or bring other problems. You might not be able to log in after changing the doctype. We do not advise to use this feature – only use this as a last resort.
Bugfix
Fixed copying pages with syncinfo: The copy will have analogous sync information set.
Bugfix
Fixed incorrect values displayed in tag-fill dialog.
For multiple “Tag (Page)” parts, incorrect values were sometimes displayed in the tag-fill dialog, from the second part onwards. The values that were displayed were a concatenation of the values of all previous parts. Due to the limited size of the input-box that displays a value, this made it appeart as if all parts had the same value (the first value – the subsequent values being cut-off).
This bug affected how the value was displayed in the tag-fill dialog, but did not affect how the value was stored in the database.
Bugfix
Fixed assign-for-revision displays login-page.
The do-number for the assign-for-revision action was incorrectly specified.
There seems to be a certain range for do-numbers of a specific module.
Bugfix
Fixed customform_resolve_nodetags feature in the tag-fill dialogue of tag-types and templates.
Resolving node tags in custom-forms only worked in the tag-fill dialogue of content tags (pages). For template tags (templates) or tag-types, the entire custom-form was rendered as the empty string if the customform_resolve_nodetags feature was activated. Now, if the custom-form is rendered as part of the tag-fill dialogue for template tags or tag-types, all will resolve to the empty string. Special custom-form tags (e.g. <nodename>) will be resolved normally.
Bugfix
Fixed inability to assign view permissions on “View permissions” tree-item.
The feature “view_perms” allows all users to see the permissions of other groups, if they have view permissions on the “View permissions” tree-item.
However, assigning view permissions on the “View permissions” tree-item was not possible, and as such, only the “node” user was in a position to see this tree-item.
Bugfix
Fixed display issue of the resizeable itemlist feature. Due to a bug the last colum of the tagtype part view was not visible if one part of the tagtype contained a longer name.
Bugfix
Fixed path to phpCAS client logfile. The logfile can now be found at /Node/tmp/cas.log
Gentics Content.Node 5.1.6
Manual Change Changes for updating Aloha Link plugin
Fixed Aloha Link plugin. It is now possible to set links to internal files. To enable linking of files the Aloha Link tagtype has to be adapted. See » Aloha Link plugin support FAQ
Bugfix
Removed duplicate dependency that caused ClassNotFound exceptions and therefore stalled the background job tasks.
Enhancement
Now templates that have only one linked folder can only be unlinked if there are no pages that reference this template. This fix was introduced to fix a bug that caused templates that were included within an export file to be hidden from the user.
Bugfix
Fixed an issue within the import that caused imports to fail due to wrong permission check of constructs.
Bugfix
Fixes error when using the “Assign for revision” functionality. This error was introduced when the changes made in Content Node 4 were merged into Content Node 5. In both branches identical do numbers were used for different features.
Enhancement
The tagname header within the tag edit dialog will now no longer be omitted if the feature tagfill_light is activated. Otherwise the tagname can be viewed by examining the head title. (Mouseover titel)
Enhancement
Now only pages that have the contenttype ‘text/html’ can be edited with aloha. For other pages the editing will automatically fallback to the oldstyle editing.
Bugfix
Fixed a bug that caused autoupdate to ignore the doupdate parameter. The autoupdate executed the update even if the feature was disabled via the autoupdate menu. Updates that include manual changes were not and will not be applied automatically.
Enhancement
The sizcache and sizset attributes that appeared when using the liveditor will be now be removed automatically.
Enhancement
Added cleanup of sizset sizcache attributes that were set by sizzle and not removed when using internet explorer with aloha editor.
Bugfix
Fixed adding of language extension to filename when updating with an empty filename and Feature “contentgroup3_pagefilename” is set.
Bugfix
Fixed deletion of imports: Do not show objects, which were ignored (or copied) in the last import in the list of objects to be deleted.
Enhancement
Upgraded CodeMirror (syntax highlighter used for template editing) to most recent version to fix copy/paste. Pasted contents would be duplicated before this fix.
Gentics Content.Node 5.1.4
Bugfix
Fixed ProxyServlet Exception (invalid uri / invalid query) which occurred when performing an edit operation on a content tag from Gentics Portal.Node in Aloha mode.
Bugfix
Fixed UI issue within the tagtype edit view. If a part is defined as liveeditable the editable checkbox will be enabled as well now.
Bugfix
Fixed an error (SGB) that occurs if the validation the feature is turned on and a tag is edited in the context of Gentics Portal.Node / Aloha.
Bugfix
Removed versioned publishing, which does not work reliable.
Enhancement
Performance enhancement and fixed timeout for Live-Editor page-save.
The performance enhancement concerns pages with many live-editable tags. Tests showed, that saving a page with 260 live-editable tags took 35 seconds originally, which was reduced to 6 seconds if the page had changes, or 3 seconds if the page had no changes.
The timeout-fix was made so that no timeout will occur, if saving a page should take longer than 30 seconds.
Bugfix
Fixed item-list column resizing in IE
When certain columns in an item-list, such as the one for the name of a page, were wider than the base column width, the column was first rendered with the correct (wider) size, but collapsed immediately to the base column width when the mouse was moved to hover over the item-list.
Bugfix
Fixed assistant frame. Aloha will now also add history entries to the assistant frame.
Bugfix
Fixed bug in overviews over pages, which were selected and ordered individually, that prevented correct rendering of pages.
Bugfix
Fixed NoClassDefFoundError during validation of style attributes.
Added render messages to the Aloha settings, such that they will be logged in Aloha, when the page is rendered. The log level can be configured by setting it to log4j.logger.com.gentics.aloha in nodelog.properties.
Bugfix
Fixed Rendering of Velocity Parts: Velocity must not be rendered in edit mode. That means that if a Tag is rendered e.g. like $cms.page.tags.test or a Part is rendered via $cms.tag.parts.test it will NOT be editable. If Tags/Parts must be editable inside Tags that render Velocity, the Notation must be used (like in the pre-Aloha Era).
Bugfix
Fixed Bug that prevented overviews to be republished when a page was published using time management and multithreaded publishing was used.
Bugfix
Fixed navigation parttype. The navigation parttype will now apply correct sorting over ALL objects.
Gentics Content.Node 5.1.3
Manual change The JDK was updated
Please perform this step before performing the update of Gentics Content.Node. This change can be omitted it the installation alredy uses JDK 1.6.0_14.
Examine the symlink /Node/java to check which jdk version is currently in use. Version 1.6.0_01 became incompatible with Gentics Content Node due to the JAXB Library version bundled with the JDK.
To update the JDK version to 1.6.0_14, please download the update script and execute it as a shell script.
The script will ask for the Node folder (defaults to “/Node”) and whether to use the 64bit version of the JDK (the default will be autodetected).
Bugfix
Fixed rendering of pages that render information of other pages (like overviews, links to other pages, page-tags, …):
If the other page was modified but not yet published, the first page would publish the current data, but not the published data of the other page. This behaviour has been fixed now: When a page is published and renders information of other pages, it will always get the published version of the other page.
Bugfix
Fixes CRSync NoClassDefFound RuntimeProfiler Exception
The ProfilerServlet has a dependency on HttpServlet. The servlet-api is only on the classpath, if the RuntimeProfiler is used in the context of a webapp.
A workaround is to specify the servlet-api.jar in the classpath of the CRSync command line.
Enhancement
Added property .istag for objects to determine whether they are tags
Bugfix
Fixed problem with custom streams which would not be displayed
Bugfix
Fixed issues with page list when flapping the tree – the page list will now reclaim all available space
Bugfix
Fixed unexpected behaviour in list of object properties of pages: Opening this list locked the page, but leaving with ‘Back’ button did not unlock.
Gentics Content.Node 5.1.2
Manual Change (when updating from 5.0.0 or older)
If you attempt to update from Gentics Content.Node 5.0.0 or older, a special patch needs to be applied. Extract the patch file which can be downloaded (gcn5_update_patch.tgz) in /Node/.node:
cd /Node/.node wget [URL_TO_gcn5_update_patch.tgz] tar xzf gcn5_update_patch.tgz // ! Delete file or change permissions otherwise the replacement of .node can't be executed by the auto update ! rm gcn5_update_patch.tgz
If you attempt to update without the patch, Gentics Content.Node won’t recognize the latest update file as a valid update package and the update process will fail.
Manual Change The PHP APC cache module must be enabled.
Append the following settings to the /Node/etc/php/php.ini file.
[APC] extension=apc.so apc.enabled=1 apc.shm_size=128M apc.ttl=7200 apc.user_ttl=7200 apc.max_file_size=16M
Afterwards, please restart Apache as root: /Node/bin/nodectl restart apache

Fixed errors in CR browser and tagmap list
Bugfix
Fixes consistency check during a CRSync. The contentstatus table could not be created with a customized name.
Bugfix
