- Fixes to online help content. (Colin Kuskie)
6.1.1
- bugfix [ 991313 ] Manage Translations doesn't work
- bugfix [ 991677 ] Preload erro my $i earlier declaration
- bugfix [ 991200 ] scriptUrl option in webgui.conf ignored
6.1.0
- Changed the output of upgrade.pl for better understanding.
- Added a --history option to upgrade.pl that displays the upgrade history
for each site.
- Fixed a typo in User.pm
- All plugins are now dynamically loaded. This provides a performance gain of
over 100% in CGI mode, 10% in mod_perl mode, and less memory usage in
mod_perl mode.
- Changed the privileges API significantly. See docs/migration.txt for details.
- Fixed a bug in articles where articles with no content would fail to
display their images.
- bugfix [966466] WebGUI::Session. System crash when user language setting missing.
- Eliminated the need for Data::Serializer which results in a small amount of
less memory usage.
- Rewrote the template API which resulted in a 30% performance increase. See
docs/migration.txt for details.
- Added five new caching mechanisms for templates. Each has their own
benefits and detriments. This allows you to increase scalability and
performance at a cost of either memory or disk space or both. The gains
here are primarily enjoyed by large heavy traffic sites that use lots of
complex templates.
- Added convenience methods to Wobject superclass for internationalization,
wobject ID, and namespace.
- Added an object-oriented interface to the internationalization system. The
old procedural interface still works as well.
- Added on the wire compression to HTTP transport for WSClient wobject. This
will have no effect on clients/servers that can't support compression.
- A small patch from Roy Johnson to deal with different types of WSDLs in the
WSClient.
- Adding form param WSClient_skipCache when posting to WSClient wobject
allows us to ignore even good soap return caches (mostly for testing use)
- Moved to a compiled internationalization and help system. At a cost of 400
kilobytes of RAM, it provides a boost in performance of over 35%. More
importantly though, it cuts the number of database queries in half on an
average page, which leads to much greater scalability. See
docs/migration.txt for API changes.
- Added the ability to select session v. global caches to WSClient.
- Rmoved the httpHeader, httpRedirect, and setCookie subs from
WebGUI::Session and created a new class called WebGUI::HTTP for them. See
docs/migration.txt for details.
- The USS automatically adds an RSS feed link tag to the head of any page
it's on.
- Added a new API for dynamically adding javascript, css, xml, rss, and meta
information to the page. See WebGUI::Style for details.
- Fixed a long standing annoyance that javascripts used by the WebGUI::Form
would be loaded multiple times if there were multiple fields of the same
type in the same form.
- Sped up the page editing page by 50% by rearranging the javascript on the
page.
- Added prepared statement handlers to WebGUI::SQL.
- Added transaction handlers to WebGUI::SQL.
- Added additional debugging to WebGUI::SQL.
- Added a better user search mechanism, which works well even with 100,000
users.
- Made some minor changes to grouping lookups that resulted in an average of
18 less database queries per page when in admin mode which results in a 32%
performance gain while in admin mode.
- Changed the group and user management interfaces to work and scale better
with thousands of users and groups.
- Changed the config loader to preload the WebGUI config files into memory at
a cost of ~70k (mem) per site for a 2000% performance gain. It is a huge
gain, but it was already really fast, so relatively users aren't likely to
notice the difference. However, this change helps in the overall
scalability of WebGUI under load.
- Added the ability to use replicated slave databases to lessen the load on
the master database. This will have no effect on single database users, but
can add a tremendous amount of scalability on large WebGUI sites that use
database replication.
- Templated the EditableToggle, a, GroupAdd, GroupDelete, H, LoginToggle, r,
and AdminToggle macros. Thanks to Colin Kuskie.
- bugfix [ 933881 ] Forms not compliant (solution). Thanks to Nicklous
Roberts.

Roberts.

- Fixed a bug that affected Postgres when creating pages.
- RFE [ 978033 ] WebGUI::Form::fieldType - "float" type is missing
- Converted the page tree system from the ajacency list model to the nested
set model. Thanks to Martin Kamerbeek / Procolix and Dan Collis Puro for
providing the DBIx::Tree::NestedSet module.
- Dropped page tree caching and stepped onto Navigation caching. This helps
scalability a lot. Thanks to Martin Kamerbeek / Procolix
- bugfix [ 977201 ] ws client bug
- bugfix [ 969740 ] Messageboard: Deleting of postings
