XperienCentral R29

Release date: July 15, 2020


Note

Upgrading to XperienCentral R29 Minimum Version Required

Upgrading to XperienCentral R29 requires a minimum version of R26. If you are upgrading from XperienCentral R25 or lower, you must first upgrade to R26 and then upgrade to XperienCentral R29.


New Method for Retrieving Media Items in Content Overviews

In this release, the Dynamic Content Overview now supports an explicit fallback language selection. For this implementation, the API of MediaCollectionElement (inherited by MediaCollectionOverviewElement) has been extended with the new method getMediaItemVersions() which replaces the method getMediaItems().

getMediaItemVersions() returns the correct media item version depending on the fallback language selected in the Dynamic Content Overview tab. In order to render the correct media item versions in the mediaCollectionElement on the frontend, the presentation JSP of the mediaCollectionElement must now use the new API method getMediaItemVersions().

For example, in webmanager-wcbs/webmanager-cestyle-wcb/src/main/resources/presentationtype/jsp/element/mediaCollectionElement.jspf, the code


Code Block
<c:forEach var="mediaItem" items="${mediaCollectionElement.mediaItems}">
<c:set var="mediaItemVersion" value="${mediaItem.current}" />

must be replaced by:

Code Block
<c:forEach var="mediaItemVersion" items="${mediaCollectionElement.mediaItemVersions}">
<c:set var="mediaItem" value="${mediaItemVersion.contentItem}" />

New Security Protocol Setting for Frontend Servers

In XperienCentral R29, a new preview functionality was introduced. Among other things, this feature enable visitors who do not have permission to log in to the XperienCentral backend to nevertheless preview unpublished content. For this reason, the new setting frontend_use_https has been introduced. This setting can be configured for each website individually. frontend_use_https is disabled by default which means that preview links will be generated using the HTTP protocol if you do not enable it.
