ProjectForum/CourseForum 6.2 Beta Release

This page allows you to download a beta release of ProjectForum or CourseForum 6.2. The first beta (6.2b1) was made available October 8/2008.

WYSIWYG Editor Improvements:

  • Major version upgrade of the core WYSIWYG (richtext) editing framework (TinyMCE), from version 2.1.1.1 to version 3.2.0.1. See TinyMCE site for details of improvements.
  • Protect [slideshow:] tags in richtext editor.
  • Protect HTML tags in custom links when loaded into the richtext editor, so creating custom links like "[html:...] -> $0" will work correctly.
  • Prevent entering new paragraphs in table cells, which would otherwise be stripped out anyways.
  • Added email link button in richtext editor (to match one in markup editor).
  • Fixed problems where richtext editor would not correctly preserve all line spacing in preformatted ('===') blocks.
  • Better preserve blank lines entered into the richtext editor by converting into explicit line breaks.
  • Compensate for IE automatically converting file paths in quotes to links, which made typing in e.g. "[file:"\\foo\bar.doc" label]" generate incorrect nested wiki markup.
  • Allow completely empty items in lists.

Additional Bug Fixes and Changes:

  • 'New page' link is now available when the forum requires authentication for edit access, but the user hasn't authenticated; will now prompt for them to login.
  • Additional database cleanup when deleting forums.
  • Prevent rare case where searches would fail but cause prolonged excessive CPU usage.
