Release 2.8 is a major AtoM release, and includes important security updates for Content Security Policy, updates to the Bootstrap 5 Dominion theme, as well as bug fixes.
Visit the Downloads page to download the most recent release, and consult the 2.8 Upgrading and Installation guides in our documentation for further information.
An overview of some of the major changes in the 2.8 release is included below.
Bootstrap 5
Starting with this release the Bootstrap 5 theme (arDominionB5Plugin) is the default theme for new AtoM installations. Additionally, AtoM is deprecating Boostrap 2 themes starting this release since Bootstrap 2, which was used for the Dominion (arDominionPlugin) and the Archives Canada themes (arArchivesCanadaPlugin), is no longer officially supported.

=Content Security Policy
This release adds Content Security Policy headers to AtoM to further improve security for AtoM. Adding this significantly improved AtoM's performance in web security analysis tools such as Mozilla Observatory which now rate it as A+.
Please read the related documentation page for information on configuration or implementing CSP for your own custom theme.
