Collabtive Changelog

What's new in Collabtive 1.0

• Added translations: Hebrew, Norwegian (Nynorsk), Taiwanese
• Improved translations: Albanian, Arabic, Bulgarian, Danish, Farsi, French, German, Greek, Hungarian, Italian, Norwegian (Bokmål), Polish, Portuguese (Brazilian), Slovak, Serbian, Turkish
• Added translations of install-readme: Hungarian
• Improved translations of install-readme: Arabic
• Changed name of autoload function to cl_autoload and added it with spl_autoload_register() to autoload list, to not interfere other autoloaders
• Implemented automatic update notification.
• Completely re-written the PDF export. It now uses a custom subclass of TCPDF to directly draw the tables for the reports from arrays instead of using an HTML intermediate.
• This greatly speeds up PDF generation (esp when many lines are exported) and generates much smaller PDFs.
• Fixed problem with missing "webcolor" variable in TCPDF
• Improved the project log PDF report by merging fields, improving shading and adding automatic font stretching.
• Added new PDF report to the "my tasks" block on the desktop. Now a user can export all his tasks to PDF.
• Re-enabled permissions checking when deleting a timetracker entry. This got disabled for testing purposes and was commited to trunk. Disabling it posed a possible security risk.
• Added permissions checking to timetracker:add and timetracker:edit . Permissions set in the useraccount where not properly enforced for the timetracker before.
• Rewrote the settings functionality to work with a key/value table as the datastore. This makes extensibility easier.
• Ported all database access from mysql_ to PDO. This became necessary because mysql_ will be deprecated in future versions of PHP.
• It uses stored procedures for all UPDATE and INSERT queries which brings improved security and performance (caching) advantages.
• Also, PDO supports a plethora of databases which should make supporting other databases than mysql much easier than before. (Contributed by Mwirtz)
• Started porting SELECT queries to use stored procedures as well. This brings security and performance (caching) advantages.
• Ported install.php and update.php to also use PDO
• Replaced the Excel Export by a more robust CSV export. The excel export was based on an outdated library and not fully compatible with newer versions of Excel and OpenOffice.
• With CSV Collabtive can now export to a widely used serialisation format that can easily be read into Excel, OpenOffice, and many more.
• Switched to using a precompiled static CSS file in production instead of dynamically compiling it at runtime. This saves many call to the php interpreter.
• Removed the tabs "my tasks", "my projects", "my messages" from the tabs bar on the desktop.
• Those tabs were redundant for quite some time now. All their information is, in condensed form, also available on the desktop. they can be reinstated by editing tabsmenue-deskt.tpl
• Fixed a bug preventing people from uploading avatar images
• Changed the truncation of project titles and task titles on the desktop slightly to prevent http://collabtive.o-dyn.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=8750#p17251
• Made timetracker show closed tasks in addition to open tasks when editing a task ( http://collabtive.o-dyn.de/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=8749 )
• When clicking on a folder, set the folder in the select menu for "add file" and "add folder" to the clicked folder.
• This way you can upload into a folder you just clicked straight away.
• Removed the "visibility" functionality for folders ...finally
• Removed IE7 compatibility
• Files: Made listview/gridview switch respect the currently selected folder when switching views
• Made the uploader respect the currently selected folder when refreshing. Now after an upload is complete the view will refresh the subfolder to which a file has been uploaded and not always the main folder.
• When editing tasks or projects in tables (i.e. on the desktop) the edit form is now displayed in the top block where the add project/task form is also displayed. This eliminates the need for a dedicated "edit" page.
• Enabled multi-byte safe truncation for strings (makes PHP extension "mbstring" required)
• Properly enforce user permissions for uploading files, moving files (file_edit), deleting folders (file_del), adding folders (file_add) on the controller/script level. Not only on the template/view level.
• Added RTL enabled version of the default theme. Contributed by mrawi.
• Implemented "view" permission. It enables you to define roles that can only view certain parts of a project. For example a role that can view milestones, tasks and messages, but not files and the timetracker in a project.
• Added "Add task" slider to the "my tasks" block on the desktop. This way a user can add tasks to himself straight from the desktop.
• Fix shading of the content table. When clicking "add task" or "add project" on the desktop the table with existing tasks / projects is now correctly shaded.
• Made the page update.php translatable
• Improved the design of the installer/updater
• Fixed a notice in system administration / user profile when a language string was not translated
• Fixed a bug that asked for the "add" permission instead of the "reply" permission before posting a reply
• Fixed a bug where the datepicker would not keep the dateformat set in the systemsettings and would revert to d.m.Y when changing months.
• Fixed a notice when displaying messages
• Fixed link in the email notifications for message-replies to point to the replied to message instead of the reply
• Send email notifications to all assigned users when creating a project, not just when adding users afterwards.
• Bulleted lists now displayed correctly... finally.
• Added mimetype icon for PNG images uploaded with IE which is image/x-png and not image/png
• Fixed a notice when searching
• Fixed a bug where clicking cancel in admin->projects->assign user would add an empty user (removed the cancel button).
• Fixed minor glitch in the form for adding a timetracker entry
• Substituted deprecated PHP function split() used in e-mail handling by PHP function explode()
• Made sure to only offer the password reset function (via e-mail) when e-mail notifications are activated
• Made the asynchronous refresh after file upload is complete a bit q
