CoreMedia CMS Changes and Improvements

  • CMDownload Links in Richtext Point to Blob Directly

    If a richtext contains an internal link pointing to a CMDownload object, the link lead to another site containing only the link to the blob. Now the link contained in the richtext points directly to the blob.

CoreMedia Studio Changes and Improvements

  • Interceptors, postprocessors and validators moved

    The packages com.coremedia.rest.intercept, com.coremedia.rest.cap.intercept, com.coremedia.rest.validation and com.coremedia.rest.cap.validation and all respective subpackages have been moved from the module cap-rest-service to the modules coremedia-rest-plugins and cap-rest-plugins. No classes have changed their package, but it might be necessary to update dependencies of modules containing custom interceptors and validators.

  • Content Sets are replaced by Projects

    Control Room: Content sets as logical containers for contents are replaced by fully-fledged projects. A project encompasses not only content items but also members, to-dos and due dates. For details, we refer to the Studio User Manual. There is no migration tool/path for transferring former content sets to projects.

    (CMS-4542)

CoreMedia Blueprint Changes and Improvements

  • Update frontend-maven-plugin to latest version 0.0.26, node.js to 4.1.1 and npm to 3.3.4 in all blueprint themes.

    (CMS-4472)

Miscellaneous Changes and Improvements

  • Bean Customizer Destroys Iteself When Done

    In order to improve performance and unnecessary executions, bean customizers destroy themselves when done.

    (CMS-4527)

  • Obsolete document property metaDescription

    The cms catalog document types CMProduct and CMCategory featured the property metaDescription. Since it has the same meaning as htmlDescription, inherited from CMLinkable, we dropped metaDescription and use only htmlDescription. The ecommerce API remains unchanged. I.e. the getMetaDescription() methods are still supported, but they are backed by the htmlDescription property now.

Fixed Issues

  • CMS-4532: Collapsible Group with issue should be uncollapsed

    Fixed auto expand of empty titles in collapsibles

  • CMS-4463: changed tomcat cache directory

    The default directory for temporary files with tomcat has changed from /var/tm/coremedia/ to /var/cache/coremedia to prevent accidential removing cache files needed by CoreMedia applications.

  • CMS-4458: Solr schema.xml changed to use autoGeneratePhraseQueries

    The attribute autoGeneratePhraseQueries="true" was added to the field type text_general in the Solr schema.xml. This fixes a bug where searching for a word with a dash (e.g. tv-show) returned documents that matched only parts of the query (e.g. just contained tv).

    There's no need to reindex because this setting does not affect indexing but only query processing.

  • CMS-3637: Naming constraint for cache keys

    The CacheKey name, defined by com.coremedia.cache.CacheKey#cacheClass(Cache, T):String, must not contain the reserved colon character ':'.
