Centralpoint Update 8.0.9


Date of Update: Friday, April 17, 2009  
  • The Admin / Error Messages module has been rewritten addressing a couple of issues. First, the application has been redesigned to support errors generated by non-.NET Framework pages. This requires some manual setup that is outlined in the Error Messages help file. Next, the error message has been updated to display on the offending URL as opposed to redirecting to Error.aspx.
  • The FormUpload CpScript has been updated to allow uploads from anonymous users. These users are permitted to upload a restricted set of file extensions, and the type property of the CpScript should be used to further restrict the files that can be uploaded. Allowing anonymous users to upload files means that anyone can upload files into any site as long as the file uses one of the supported extensions.
  • A FormEditor CpScript has been added for use in Forms Management. Refer to the Scripting help file for a description of how to use this CpScript.
  • The RelatedData cp:control has been updated to include a new OrderBy property. This propery has been documented in the “Module Designer” help file in the “Related Records” section.
  • A new query string variable named “fields” is now supported by all modules. It allows query string based field searches similar to those used in the Home View (#1). Adding the fields query string variable to the module home view URL will automatically execute a search over the given field. The variable value must be set in the following format: “TableName.FieldName:FieldValue”. The search will be executed using a LIKE statement.
  • A change has been made to the Leads and Management application objects that will cause them to be created late if they are not created during the Application.OnStart event.
  • The addition of FormState caused a bug where query string based searches were no longer compatible with the paging, sorting, or ordering controls. These features have been re-implemented to look for the values in the query string whenever form state is not in use. When form state is used the query string variables will be ignored.
  • Additional exception handling has been added to the Lead generation tools to prevent application level errors from breaking the site and to report Errors to the Admin / Settings / Error Notification Email when they occur.
  • The Uber Control, Uber, and Master code has been updated to prevent “Maximum Request Length Exceeded” errors that were related to the file upload within the editor.
  • The Development / Errors modules in Uber, Master, and Web Site consoles have been updated to HTML encode the display of URLs. This is intended to prevent hacking attempts recorded in errors from affecting these consoles. Due to this change the URLs are no longer hyperlinked and must be manually inspected and copied for use.
  • New CMS tools have been created for use in custom imports into Keyword Lists.
  • A new module property called “Module Design” has been added to Site Architecture / Navigation & Homepages. You can now create a record in Site Architecture / Module Designer for your homepages and/or navigation and use these module properties to select the new records. The new module designer records can be used to add header text, footer text, email forms, taxonomy, etc. to homepages and navigation items when the Page Type is set to HTML.
  • The RTF Editor's Site Links dialog paging problems and broken links have been repaired.
  • A new CpScript has been added called CurrentIssue. This script is intended to display the top 1 current issue and has been documented in the Scripting help file.
  • A new attribute called Caption has been added to all Generic modules.
