[Zope-Annce] Silva 1.5.10 Released

[eric casteleijn]

20 january 2007 – Infrae has just released version 1.5.10 of the Silva 
content management system. This is a maintenance release that includes 
additions to the documentation, default layout performance improvements, 
and fixes for various minor issues.


Changes in Silva and related products

A list of the most important changes follows. For complete details of 
the fixed issues see HISTORY.txt in the packages.


Silva

* Added an explicit base tag to the layout template, so that it no 
longer includes a trailing slash which Zope adds for all container-like 
objects, which Silva Documents are. This means that linking to anchors 
now works like you would expect it to. Users should add a base tag to 
their own layout templates.
* Solved problem with trailing slashes in relative Links (thanks to 
Benno Luthiger).
* Fix for TOCs and AutoTOCs where docs that didn’t have a title didn’t 
appear because the link was empty (it was there). Now the id shows up so 
visitors can at least click it.
* Default installations will have the html meta tags and accessibility 
links skipped in the layout macro to have better out of the box 
performance. Site managers can turn them on as needed.
* Changed css styling of the preview publisher buttons, making it easier 
for users to integrate the publisher into their own layout.


SilvaMetadata

* MetadataTool.getMetadataValue did not work correctly for Ghosts and 
Ghost Folders, it does now.
