What's new in Silva CMS 2.2:

March 31st, 2010

· A simple PhotoGallery demo view have been added to use on any container.
· Silva Links now support again relative links.
· SilvaExternalSources is installed by default, and the toc element in the default created SilvaDocument have been removed.
· Deprecate Products.Silva.helpers.makeContainerFilter and makeZMIFilter (makeZMIFilter was moved to silva.core.conf.utils). Fix signature checking in Folder.filtered_meta_types.
· kupu: the link input field in the link toolbox was changed to be a textarea. In 2.2 releases prior to 2.2 final, the input field changed to a textarea on focus and back to an input field onblur, so long urls where easier to view. This caused confusing 'double clicking' behavior in order to manually add or update a link (first to unfocus, second to update)
· The formulator lookupwindow field changed to a textarea to address the same concerns as the link toolbox in kupu mentioned above.
