Downloads

Magnolia CORE 5.7.2 is a maintenance and security release that delivers the following improvements and bugfixes:  

Changes for developers

Tomcat 9 server configuration with relaxed query chars

Tomcat 9 is less tolerant regarding special characters compared to some previous versions. To bring back the same support for special characters as it was on Tomcat 8 — for instance to query the Delivery endpoint API with filters — we have added the [, ], and | characters to the relaxedQueryChars attribute on the Connector element in the server.xml configuration file.

MGNLTOMCAT-6

Fixed full-text search of documents

Indexing and full-text search of documents works as expected again after upgrading third-party dependencies for Apache POI and Apache Commons Compress.

MAGNOLIA-7398

Publishing only specific paths

Receivers can be configured to publish only a specific path in a workspace. For example, the following receiver configuration publishes only the /specificPath path of the website workspace and ignores everything else:

  • WorkspaceDefinition properties fromPath and toPath are set to /specificPath.
  • The workspace property is set to website and the excluded property to false. 

PUBLISHING-39

API changes

In the Google Sitemap module, on the class SitemapTableColumnDefinition, on the method #getAlignment, we had to change the return type. The type has changed from com.vaadin.v7.ui.Table.Align to java.lang.String.
