Other Changes

• A new database function, OrderItemList_Backorder_Dates has been added to lib/dbeng/orders.mv. This function allows multiple OrderItem records to be marked as back ordered with individual in-stock dates while triggering a single change notification.
• Fixed a bug that prevented shopping session cookies from being properly cleared.
• New provisioning tags and allow manipulation of the default variant for a product.
• New database functions ItemModuleList_Load_Page_Active() and ItemModuleList_Load_Page_Store_Active() added to features/tui/tui.db.mv
• New provisioning tag allows provisioning of SEO settings
• A new option has been added to PayPal IPN and PayPal Pro to allow the PayPal Shipping Information to overwrite any previous values in Miva Merchant.
• A new global variable, g.Merchant_Local_Timezone, is now initialized in lib/config.mv. This variable contains the return value of timezone() when running a 5.06 or earlier MivaScript engine, or "local" when using 5.07, which allows mktime_t() and time_t_xxx() callers to take advantage of new dynamic daylight savings time code in the 5.07 engine.
• The autocomplete algorithm in new AJAX UI elements has been redesigned to generate less server load.
• Security and functionality enhancements from module-cbamazon-3 are incorporated into this patch.
• The provisioning tag can now be used to change the attribute template referenced by a product attribute.
• The ID, code, and name of the current page are now available through the StoreMorph tokens page:id, page:code, and page:name for all pages.
• A new component, cmp-mv-body, provides a generic template that may be used to control the body tag for both CSSUI and MMUI. The item exists but is unused in a default installation. To use this component, you must manually create a "body" item that references it and modify the page templates to reference the item instead of directly
• drawing a <body> tag.
• A new component, cmp-mv-content, provides one or more templates that may be pulled into pages. New CSSUI installations register a "content" item and assign this item to the SFNT page. Upgraded CSSUI installations will not be modified.
• A new component, cmp-mv-http-headers, and default item http_headers allow HTTP headers to be controlled on a page. This component is used to output a 404 Not Found error on the NTFD page.

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

That list is nothing short of impressive. You guys have been busy since RC1.

Since you don't modify pages anymore, can you clue me in on how this works?

A new component, cmp-mv-http-headers, and default item http_headers allow HTTP headers to be controlled on a page. This component is used to output a 404 Not Found error on the NTFD page.

An example of what the NTFD page would have looked like if it was a new install so I can see the parameters in the item.

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

That one isn't template code so we did make the change. If you go to the NTFD page you'll see a new Item assigned called HTTP headers and a new tab for it.

This is the only page we added it to by default but it can be used on any page to control the HTTP Headers.

[wcw]

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

Ok, I saw that. So if we wanted to have a redirect page, we could have a different page and use a different status code, e.g. 301.

[Rick Wilson]

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

Yep or you could use your NTFD page that way if you'd like.

[wcw]

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

Is there an easy way to tell if the header worked? I still see white space when I view source on the NTFD page. Doesn't the header have to come before whitespace?

[wcw]

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

Nevermind, I found the answer. http://web-sniffer.net/ Works like a charm. http://mm55.emporiumplus.com/asdf.html shows correct status.

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

How does one get PR7 updates? "Upgrade Stream: Beta" is installing PR6.

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

Bill,

I know there's a way to look at the raw output, maybe Gary can tell you. I saw Jon doing it and we were playing with the output controls as he watched it (like the matrix).

Gary,

The Beta will continue to show PR6 until the final Public PR7 comes out (it's how our upgrade system works). You can tell what's installed by looking at the Installed Patched under Upgrade Settings.

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

Is there any way to get specific modules for the PR2 Release (ie., the google checkout module...keep hitting Delete instead of Update (and there is no confirmation --hint).

Speaking of hints...here's a wish list item for Merchant...Allow the admin of a module to be viewable even if its deactivated...that way, you can look at settings or direct links to documention/support while its been deactivated. For example, if it had to be deactivated because the module was causing a problem, it would be good (at least for us) to allow users to use the internal support link, since it provides lots of extra information.

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

Wayne can get you any files you Updated, I mean Deleted :)

It's on the wishlist.

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

When will it be a regular update when i log in or is it still a beta thing yet,reading about Wombatwondering yet about the accual problems and wondering when a working release will be out with out bugs ,sort of makes me scared to use it reading all the problems people seem to run into

[Rick Wilson]

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

I'm not sure what problems you're seeing?

It seems like a very stable release candidate at this point.

As for the date, we really won't know until a few days before we release it, we have a mandated PA-DSS test plan we must complete. Once that's complete, we'll announce it and release it roughly 3 days later.

[Bruce - PhosphorMedia]

Re: Wombat Release Candidate 2 is out

I see the number of bugs discovered as a GOOD thing...because it means the actual release will be more stable.
