Terminalfour: 8.2.15

Date Released:
October 12 2018

General

In this release, the focus was to improve the performance of the Media Library. We introduced server-side pagination to list media and other enhancements that improve the media library experience. 

Some changes of note are as follows:

  1. When moving (dragging) a media category, a prompt for confirmation is now displayed to prevent unwanted moving of categories.
  2. After duplicating a branch and duplicating content, the breadcrumb for the content in the approval queue is now correct.
  3. It is now possible to add rights to a user in a subsection, on a huge site structure, after modifying edit rights to the root section.
