Automatic deletion of links lnkSolutionToCI
Keep track of the application's usage: an entry in the log is added each time a user connects to the application. (This feature is disabled by default)
Wiki: add links to objects in text attributes (e.g. [[Server:dv1.combodo.com]] will be seen as a Url to the object in iTop.
Check SLA for tickets moved to a new page: cron.php. See dedicated section.
Email sent in asynchronous mode (relying on cron.php - see dedicated section)
Aligned the display of the case log (and properties) of a ticket in the User Portal to what is done in the normal UI: better look (multi-column, fieldsets, wider case log at the bottom).
New option group_by_expr for "group_by' display blocks (to be used in templates) to specify a PHP expression to use for the group by. This allows to build dashboards where dates are grouped by the day of the month, for example.
#370 standard argument for CLI/REST services: param_file
Wiki formatting. The attributes of type 'AttributeText' or derived, allow some special formatting:
- links to objects: [[Server:db1.my-company.com]] will be seen as a Url to the server named 'db1.my-company.com' in iTop.
- url are detected and displayed as hyperlinks
Optimizations:
- Delayed startup for all non-important javascript effects to speed-up the display of the pages.
- Implementation of the APC cache. Settings: apc_cache.query_ttl (defaults to 3600s) and apc_cache.enabled = true by default (beta)
- Implementation of the APC cache. Settings: apc_cache.query_ttl (defaults to 3600s) and apc_cache.enabled = true by default
New implementation of the setup:
- support of upgrade or reinstallation
- optimizations (3 times faster)
- dictionary files (<Lang>.dict.<ModuleName>.php) loaded automatically without the need to specify them explicitely in the module definition file.
