Symphony.

Here is the current change log for Revision 5. It is available now from the Symphony Accounts page.

Features

• Added new HTTP headers for error pages "Symphony-Error-Type: (database|xslt|generic)".
• Added a new configuration flag "$settings['public']['displayeventxmlinsource'] = 'yes|no';" to allow developers to hide the Event XML when logged in.
• Validation rules can be added via '/manifest/validators.php' instead of changing the core file. The prevents losing your custom rules when updates are released.
• #135: File and folder permissions are set in the Installer via an input field, rather than select box.
• #148: Attempting deleting entries will display a confirmation dialog first.
• #155: The query caching configuration setting is now more intuitive.
• #164: After removing a section, pages that use a Data Source still referring to the old sections will throw a nice error.
• #120: Added 'parent-path' page parameter.
• #121: Installer will now listen to the ensemble DB connection character set and encoding details.
• #168a: External XML renamed to Dynamic XML to better represent what it is.
• #168b: Page params are available to the URL and XPath fields of Dynamic XML Data sources.

• #114: When editing either Data Sources or Events, the pages that reference them are updated should the name of the Event or DS change.

• #190: Tag list value and handle data base fields have been increased in size from 30 to 255
• #88: It is no longer possible to use Text Formatters, Fields, Events or Data Sources that are provided by an Extension that has not been enabled. Existing pages/sections that make use of these will throw errors warning you that the appropriate resource is not available.
• #103: If a front-end saving Event fails, any form field values will be put into into a new element, post-values, within the Event XML.
