Change log
Changes since Beta 2
- Speed Improvements - Optimized (getNavigation) function used to render the primary navigation view. Reduces number of calls, plus cuts out getObject calls completely.
- Unicode Fixes: Fixed bug that was preventing Unicode values in Navigation Item folders and links titles. Fixed vocabulary issue in edit form dropdowns so it works with Unicode.
- Edit form changes: Report existing navitems titles display more neatly, provide a direct link to editing the navitem. Updated schema of navitems to hide irrelevant and/or problematic fields from view. Now you can only edit 'title', 'summary', and 'external_url'.
- Added event (on post_create and post_edit) that syncs ownership of nav items with the local ownership of the content they point to. (Not inherited ownership)
- Workflow Changes: Anonymous users can no longer see "draft" items, allowing sections to be staged until ready for viewing. Owners of Nav items can request removal. Owners allowed to see pending navitems in context in the navigation menu.
- Update to cachefu setup instructions
- Install improvements: Removes metanav content types from search
- Added new unit tests for the more complex permission logic that has been added
- Plone 3.0 compatibility improvements. This version maintains compatibility with Plone 2.5 too.
