Changes since 1.4.0

For list of issues fixed in 1.5.0 see our issue tracker, below is a list of notable bugs/features/enhancements done in the this release.

Version Management

In this version, you have a new tab "Versions" under which you will be able to manage Versions and Drafts.

See the video screencast for a demonstration of this feature.

• EZP-25463: Ability to remove drafts
• EZP-25462: Ability to remove archived versions
• EZP-26089: Ability to edit a draft

• EZP-25465: Implement a Draft conflict screen
  
  

FullText search with Legacy (SQL) Engine

As part of EZP-25088 FullText indexing is now also working when not using Solr. This will never be as advanced as with Solr, but it provides basic search without setting up Solr.

Preparations for Symfony 3 support

This release has received lots of fixes to remove deprecation warnings when running on Symfony 2.8 to the point where we now have automated testing using Symfony 3.x. These changes will simplify the move to Symfony 3.x later, also for your own custom code as you can now enable full error reporting.

  • EZP-25323: Display Content Type name and field Field definition name in the best language according to editor's browser setting.

• REST:

  • EZP-24853: REST output when failing to save/create a draft has been improved.
