v8.6.1 - Path Release

This is a patch release to help us debug some potential issues with publishing (not yet confirmed).

We have some reports of strange behaviour when publishing items on Azure. We haven't been able to recreate these issues yet, but this release adds a lot more debug level logging around the management of the zip folders and temporary files. Hopefully this will help us identify any issues. It is possible this is not a uSync issue, but we are increasing logging to help us identify and possible issues.

You do not need to update to this version of the package unless you have specific azure issues and need us to look into the logs.

8.4.1 - Publisher UI Updates.

This is an incremental release, introducing a couple of new features.

Updates

Dependency-Check feedback in the UI

Dependency calculations now get its own step, the dependency checks are mostly fast, but if you have 1000's of items to check it can take a while, and previously this step offered not UI feedback, so you might think it was stuck. Now the dependency checks get their own step (and icon) so you can see them happening.

Publisher Dashboard

day-to-day you can sync everything you might need to via the content pull/push buttons - but there might also be times when you want to push or pull just the settings. the publisher dashboard gives you this functionality,

One side effect of this dashboard is you can now push languages and hostnames between sites too (doing it during content pushes runs the risk of breaking if you have these values different on dev/live)

Publish Dialog (Experimental)

Like all good packages we've hacked into the save & publish button, so now you can publish to a server directly from the button.

Turning on the experimental publish dialog

This button doesn't replace the existing push and pull commands, and while we are in experimental release, you have to turn it on by hand, go to the user group settings and enable. Push Content Button (Experimental)

uSync 8.4.0 goodness

This release also increments its uSync dependencies to uSync 8.4.0 which has some work done to speed things up, and fix a couple of bugs - so you to get the wonderfulness of uSync baked into this release.

see the uSync 8.4.0 release notes for more info

Complete change list

The following changes are included in this release

• Added localhost.me to list of local domains for licences (no restrictions on localhost sites)
• Sync Settings dashboard
• Fix bouncing truck not always bouncing
• Fix sort order bug on server sort dialogue
• Remove push/pull commands from the menu if there are no servers to push/pull to
• Fix ShowSelf attribute in server settings
• Push Button overlay
• Fix error when only push is enabled for a user
• Upgrade to uSync 8.4.0

The Bouncing Truck release.

Update to uSync 8.3.1 and tidy up so things work nicely in Umbraco 8.4+ (still works on previous versions of Umbraco).

Publisher

We've added several UI Improvements to uSync.Publisher

Sort the servers via the UI,

You can now sort servers via the publisher settings UI, meaning you can make sure they appear in the right order without having to go into the uSync config files.

New Progress UI for publishing

Including the bouncing truck, you can now track the push and pull steps via the UI so you can see what is happening.

behind this improvement, we have restructured how the publishers work, making it easier for us (or you) to replace the standard publishing process with one of your own (we have much plans!)

Server setup templates

We have introduced a new server page, offering simple setup templates to help you get your servers configured quicker.

uSync.PeopleEdition

• Fix for Member Imports (they didn't always work!)

8.2.4 - Publish nicer.

Complete release to match uSync 8.2.4 release - https://github.com/KevinJump/uSync8/releases/tag/8.2.4, and tidy up a few things for uSync.Publisher, that just make it neater.

• the main uSync fix that effects publisher is a fix for null checking in the RTE mapper, upgrading to this release should fix that issue.

Publisher

• Delete missing children, now puts deleted items in the bin #16
• Improved feedback when the servers won't connect (it will tell you if the API version is out and if you are licenced)

UI Fixes

• Dialogue buttons are now disabled when you are in the middle of publishing #15
• Make sure all sync processes will display errors if they encounter them
• You can now see the 'show self' setting at the bottom of a server setup (lets you can publish to the server you are on- it's a test setting more than anything else).
