* fcsv: 2.7.13.1 (29.09.2009)
 

Update of the fcs to a new [ patch / minor / major ] FCS version:


New Version: 3.7.13.1
Updated by: BF IM
Date of release: 01.10.2009
Type of release: STANDARD
Change log:

I. Major for Users / Clients visible changes (must inform client + must be documented):

 

(1) fact referers - who is linking to me?
In the metainformation below the fact, there is a new group called "Referers" - there all facts that are linking to the fact you are currently viewing are listed. This was made possible by a major database optimisation to our FCS database where we store in a much more convenient way all factlinks, factinludes and factimages.


(2) read statistics in the metainfo - new design and layout, list exact users who read the fact
The fact read statistics that are shown in the metainformation below the fact (when the option is enabled in padmin), have been redesigned and greately optimisied. Their interfaces are interactive, and in addition if you have the proper permissions (set in padmin), you can list all unique users who have read the fact, with the time when they did.


(3) structure lists - new columns and options are now available
The padmin can configure now the structure lists with much more options. The new columns "filesize", "count comments", "shortname" and "filename" are available now. You can now also choose an icon (from a platform image) as the column heading if you want.


(3) padmin - mandatory permissions interfaces - redone, more intuitive and interactive
The mandatory permission configuration interfaces in padmin have been redone - selecting which groups are affected is now more intuitive, and there is a checkbox "Everyone", which clearly shows what is needed if the administrator wants that everyone is affected by the mandatory permission settings.


(4) version history diff - tidy engine + new icons and interface improvements
Our Diff function in the version history (Archiv) was optimised - the engine for cleaning up the code is now using a more advanced technology. In addition to that the design has been changed to improve the look and feel.


(5) multiple image upload in structure with a zip file - filenames kept, order correct
Uploading slides via structure to the system is much easier now. Whatever filenames you put in the ZIP, they will be used as the fact titles after the upload, and the sorting will be then by filename.

 

(6) all boxes can be hidden now, no matter if they are required by the system or not.
In the padmin degine boxes, it is now possible to hide any box, even if it is a box that the system normally has as required (e.g. filter, view, settings...).



II. Other visible changes (might need to be documented, or not):


(1) form2 - permissions layer - current user (the publisher) is displayed with checkboxes
(2) padmin and sadmin now have a custom favicon (factline specific)
(3) browse images redone and redesigned! (e.g. settings - link next to image input)
(4) fastlink - possible to enter an ID, select it, control-L -> factlink to that ID is created
(5) Users: firstname and lastname can contain a dash "-" now.

(1) optimisations to platform ID retreival
(2) favicon.ico headers optimisation
(3) removing vsrious unused modules and debug

(20) rss now working again, several several fixes (also apache2 related).
(21) show shortcuts in metainfo - translations for the folders
