Changes with Gentics Content.Node 5.17.1

Date: 26.06.2014


Manual Change

Aloha Link Plugin: Links were not escaped correctly when inserted with the aloha link plugin.

With this manual change you can place special characters in a link and it will be escaped according to html standards. To do the manual change please update the tagfill of the tagtype “Aloha Link“ (keyword: “gtxalohapagelink”) to match the code in the Aloha Page Link Tag Description.


Bugfix RT58159

Fixed multiple issues with roles: Group permission dialog would not display the assigned role count. Roles would not be assigned recursively to child objects in the Group permission dialog. All roles except one would be ignored most of the time if multiple roles are assigned to an object.


Bugfix RT58204

Deleting a node could sometimes lead to database inconsistencies (leaving a node entry without its root folder). Those database inconsistencies would subsequently cause publish failures. The process of deleting nodes has been modified, so that no database inconsistencies can occur, even if the process itself is interrupted or fails.


Bugfix RT58196

When publishing into a content repository that has instant publishing enabled, the publish process could fail with various errors thrown by the JDBC driver, which were caused by not-threadsafe usage of the database connection. This has been fixed now, access to the content repository database will now be properly synchronized.


Bugfix RT58156

Implementations using the Datasource PartType did not work as expected. Dirting of dependent objects did not work, when tags containing a Datasource PartType were changed and doing imports of tags with Datasource PartTypes could cause Internal Errors. These errors have been fixed now. Possibly incorrect references to datasources in the database will automatically be corrected during the next initialization of Gentics Content.Node.


Bugfix RT58179

Setting permissions on custom tree entries did not work as expected and has been fixed now.


Bugfix RT58198

The language shown in the page properties dialog was not the page‘s language, but the currently selected content language. This has been fixed now. The page‘s language will be shown now. If the page has no language set, the field will be empty.


Bugfix RT58187

When using Roles to grant permissions on languages to users, the “translate“ role was not sufficient to create language variants of existing pages. This has been fixed now, users with the “translate“ role for a specific language are allowed to create translations (language variants of existing pages), whereas creation of new pages still requires the “create“ role (or the “create” group permission).


Bugfix RT58202

Localizing folders in a deep folder structure failed with an Exception. The Exception was thrown when the folder property “Directory” was more than 64 characters long. This has been fixed. Now folder paths can be 255 characters long.
