Technical overview
------------------

Plone is a content management framework that works hand-in-hand and sits on top
of Zope, a widely-used Open Source web application server and development
system. To use Plone, you don't need to learn anything about Zope; to develop
new Plone content types, a small amount of Zope knowledge is helpful, and it is
covered in the `documentation`_.

Zope itself is written in Python, an easy-to-learn, widely-used and supported
Open Source programming language. Python can be used to add new features to
Plone, and used to understand or make changes to the way that Zope and Plone
work.

By default, Plone stores its contents in Zope's built in transactional object
database, the ZODB. There are products and techniques, however, to share
information with other sources, such as relational databases, LDAP, filesystem
files, etc.

Plone runs on Windows, Linux, BSD, Mac OS X, and many other platforms;
double-click installers are available for Windows and Mac OS X, and RPM
packages are available for Linux. For full information, see the
`plone.org product page`_.

Changelog
=========

4.2.2 (unreleased)
------------------

- Do not block right-side portlets in Members folder on site creation.
This fixes https://dev.plone.org/ticket/10764
[polyester]

rendered. This fixes https://dev.plone.org/ticket/12342
[ericof]

code in Zope 2.13.17+.
[davisagli]

- Make sure the portal_registry setting for ResourceRegistries bundles
gets installed.
[davisagli]

- Filter out non existing types in getUserFriendlyTypes.
This avoids an error on the search form when a no longer existing
portal_type is still in the catalog.
[maurits]

- We can safely move the MAX_TITLE to 50 and even move up MAX_DESCRIPTION 150 refs #11321
[maartenkling]

- Remove inline styles, they do nothing, add class so someone can style it when they like refs #12438
[maartenkling]

- Show forget password when entering wrong credentials refs #12463
[maartenkling]

- Remove h3 to make consistent html refs #11344
[maartenkling]

4.2.1.1 (2012-08-23)
------------------

- Fixed i18n of image view improvement introduced in 4.2.1.
[vincentfretin]

- Ensure some transient dependencies don't vanish in the 4.2 series,
just because some libraries get updated and nobody declares the
dependency anymore. Same as in the Plone package:
zope.copypastemove, zope.app.component, zope.app.container,
zope.app.publisher.
[maurits]


4.2.1 (2012-08-11)
------------------

- Fix: do not display 'file content' on a file view if there is no file.
[thomasdesvenain]

- Improve image view:
- Add a download button.
- Display View button only if image is a web format (jpeg, png, gif...)
[thomasdesvenain]

- zope.globalrequest is a required dependency on tests.
[hvelarde]

- Remove content-core ID from login_form. This removes the duplicate ID
that occurs on a page when using the login overlay.

[cwainwright]


4.2.0.1 (2012-07-02)
--------------------

- Add docstring to SkinTool's method to allow them being called from the ZMI.
[erral]


4.2 (2012-06-29)
----------------

- Add upgrade step to install the CMFEditions component registry bases
modifier.
[rossp]

- Make redirection_view/attempt_redirect fall back to nothing in
default_error_message template. If plone.app.redirector gets a URL with
special characters, OOBTree.get raises a UnicodeDecodeError and the template
fails. This fixes http://dev.plone.org/ticket/12976.
[timo]

- Fix jquery.highlightsearchterms.js to not render arbitrary js.
[vangheem]


4.2rc2 (2012-05-31)
-------------------

navigation URLs. This avoids an exception when constructing breadcrumb navigation
for search results if the result is a 'Discussion Item' as the parent Conversation
object does not have a portal_type attribute.
[gaudenz]

- For event view template, changed headerless table to headings and divs for better accessibility. See bug #13181
[hmharter]

See http://dev.plone.org/ticket/12902
[polyester]

- When adding, changing or removing skins, automatically recook all resource
registries, to keep theme bundles in-sync. This mirrors the event subscriber
support used in plone.app.registry for the same purpose.
[hannosch]

- Let the RR export/import steps depend on the skins tool and
plone.app.registry steps, as either of them might create new theme bundles
[hannosch]

- Hide Kupu base profile on Plone site creation screen.
[hannosch]

- PEP 8 (ignoring W602, W604, E301, E302, E501 and E701).

[tom_gross]

- Re-apply PLIP 10901 to table_sort.js, fixing a bug with reversing sort
on the first column.
[mj]

- Stop filtering folder_listing to the types from
@@plone_portal_state/friendly_types, since that excludes non-searchable
types rather than non-listable types.
[davisagli]

- PloneControlPanel's enumConfiglets no longer returns invisible configlets.
[esteele]

- Hide the (old) Collections control panel by default for new sites.
[esteele]

- Use getId() instead of title_or_id() for displaying which items get
deleted, to avoid unicode error
Fixes http://dev.plone.org/ticket/12765
[spereverde]

- Allow form tabbing to be used across different DOM documents.
[rossp]

- Hide left column in prefs_main_template when user does not have access to
configlets.

[pingviini]

- Re-apply PLIP 10901 to table_sort.js, fixing a bug with reversing sort
on the first column.
[mj]

- Add keyword 'latest' to metadata.xml's version tag, which then looks for
the highest numbered profile that is registered and pins that to the
upgrade step. This means that the version field in metadata.xml only
has to be set to 'latest' once and then it automatically searches for
the highest numbered profile.
[eleddy]

------------------

http://dev.plone.org/ticket/7885
[davisagli]

- Remove uneeded kss debugging code
[jfroche]

- Allow users with the Manage Users permission to change the login
name of other users; specifically this allows them to change the
email address when this is used as login name.
Fixes http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/11255
[maurits]

- Removed the 'What' row in the event view that displayed the
keywords; this is already handled by the keywords viewlet.
Fixes http://dev.plone.org/plone/ticket/10818
[maurits]

- Make control panel action GS export return actions alphabetically since
there is no other natural ordering.
[ggozad]

Fixeѕ http://dev.plone.org/ticket/10547
[rochecompaan]

4.2a2 - 2011-08-25
------------------

- AuthenticatedUsers group is used for local roles etc, and is not the same
as Authenticated role. Thus, it can not be optimized away in catalog queries.
[tesdal]

[do3cc]

4.2a1 - 2011-08-08
------------------

- Added hidden year/month/day/hour/minute/ampm labels to calendar macros.
Part of a form accessibility cleanup.

Those with a desperate need to support the 'placeholder' text functionality
in the obsolete browsers are free to re-register the script in their own
instances.
[spliter]

- Deprecated input-label.js — instead we are using the HTML5 'placeholder'
attribute on the input fields.
[spliter]
