| |
| | | | |
| − | ===Archival descriptions=== | + | ==Release 2.9== |
| | | | |
| − | The 2.5 release will add audit logging for archival descriptions - administrators will be able to view a log of all creation and modification events associated with a description (including date of change and the user account associated with the change), as well as a log of all description modification events associated with a particular user account (with links to the affected descriptions). Users will be able to see their own logs, though only admins will be able to see all user logs. Additionally, editors will now be able to run a job that will automatically calculate the date range for a parent description, based on the broadest dates found on any descendant records. Finally, administrators can now hide RAD Rights notes from the public interface via the Visible elements module.
| + | Plans for our next major release will be posted here and added to over time as they develop. |

| − | ===Authority records===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In addition to the new Advanced search interface for authority records (described in the [[Releases/Roadmap#Search_and_Browse|Search and Browse]] section below), The 2.5 release will also see subject and place access points added to authority records (including support in EAC-CPF XML and CSV import/exports), and the ability to attach a single digital object to an authority record via upload in the user interface, or URL. We're also enhancing the authority record search/browse results with thumbnails of attached digital objects, and text snippets taking from the related record's History field, similar to the scope and content snippets shown on description results.

| − | ===Clipboard===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | In the 2.5 release, users will be able to save a clipboard in one session, and then load it again in the future - with the option to either merge with the current clipboard results, or to replace them. An administrator can also set how long saved clipboards will be preserved in the system.

| − | ===Formatting===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | AtoM 2.5 will add support for the [http://parsedown.org/ Parsedown] PHP library, which will allow users to format content using [https://guides.github.com/features/mastering-markdown/ GitHub-flavored Markdown] - meaning that italics, bolding, lists, tables, and more formatting will be supported within edit templates. Previous special formatting in AtoM will be removed, but a command-line task to convert existing custom link syntax to the new Markdown link syntax will also be added (see the Command-line tools section below). Parsedown syntax will also be automatically ignored in searches, and Parsedown is smart enough to ignore open ended tags - meaning if you forget to close a bolding element or a table, you won't break your whole site.

| − | ===Search and Browse===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | We have upgraded the Elasticsearch index to use version 5.2 . Additionally, a new Hierarchical browse page option, comprised of a full-screen treeview displaying all records, will be available as an alternative way of browsing site holdings. In the authority record search/browse page, we're adding a full Advanced search panel for authority records, similar to the desrciption advanced search. Users will also be able to change the sort direction of results in the sort button (Ascending and Descending). Additionally, we're adding a couple performance improvements: first, for edits that affect many descendant records, the job scheduler will now be used to make any necessary updates in the background. Second, we've added pagination to the full-width treeview to help scalability and performance in very large hierarchies.

| − | ===Command-line tasks===
| |
| − |
| |
| − | New tasks to help manage Physical storage locations have been added, as well as a number of performance improvements to the CSV import task that should decrease import times. There is also a new task to help remove redundant links to authority records at lower levels (that can cause performance issues in large installations), where creator inheritance would achieve the same results. The digital object load task will also gain the ability to discard master digital objects after derivative creation, storing the path to their locations instead - similar to when URLs are used for linking when uploading digital objects via the user interface. This will allow institutions who maintain their digital objects in a separate shared internal location to avoid the need to duplicate their objects when linking them to descriptions in AtoM. Finally, a new search:status task has been added to help users gather more information about their Elasticsearch installation, helpful when troubleshooting.
