TWC-2156 Ability to add images and videos to the new Welcome page

You should now be able to upload and embed both images and videos from the File repository, as well as YouTube-videos, via the Insert Image and Insert Video buttons. TermWeb does support videos streamed from other sites but these need to whitelisted individually for a server. For now, only YouTube is whitelisted by default.

This release includes a lot of bug fixes to improve stability of current version before major update to 4.1.0.

The File Repository has received a major update by implementing permissions. Staging Area columns can now be reordered. The Workflow task Edit Concept will not trigger on the creation of new Concepts, only the editing of existing Concepts.

TWC-2178 (TWDESK-9496) Implemented Dictionary-level Permissions for File Repository.

Implemented three visibility settings: All users and guests, All users, Dictionary users. By default for backward compatibility All users and guests is set to all files.

Administrators must be able to update and see all files. Regular users must see files from all visibility settings and from readable dictionaries. Guest users must see files with visibility All users and guests and from readable dictionaries.

Open

See more details

New column: “Visible to” showing for each file visibility settings.

Filter for visibility of files.

Import repository has configuration to set visibility settings for all files from archive.

New multiselect mode, where users can apply changes up to 300 hundred records at once:

Open

When a dictionary is deleted, links to Attachments in that dictionary are also deleted. When all Attachment links to a dictionary are deleted, it will only be visible to users with a Administrator role.

After modifying a file in the File Repository, the table should find file on page and highlight it, as well as change page number and reapply search parameters.

 

Selecting file as attachment in reference dialog:

Dialog should show preview of selected file:

Open

 

A user can deselect a file by clicking on x-icon in the far-right of the URL field (see image above for reference).

Open

TWC-966 Concept ID was set to 0 when creating concept in Staging Area.

Several issues when creating concept in Staging Area have been addressed.

Added dialogue hint, that at least one term must be added to draft:

TWC-1211 (TWDESK-1225) Certain customer dictionaries still had issues with deleting domains.

TWC-1230 (TWDESK-1166) Concept-level date fields had change date set to a day earlier when edited.

TWC-1258 Workflows: Using Render Hidden for View Term hides field from all Terms instead of conditional Terms.

TWC-1273 Assigning Print Concept Permission to a Section not correctly show Print Concept icon for assigned User groups.

TWC-1288 (TWDESK-1318) UI: Preferred date format is not used when editing a Concept in the Concept window.

TWC-1309 (TWDESK-1362, TWDESK-9681) Workflow tasks: Edit Concept rendering fields affected Create Concept.

Now the Edit Concept Task will only be invoked for actual editing of Concepts.

TWC-1352 (TWDESK-744, TWDESK-1483) Batch Search Tool: Does not read "º"-character correctly

TWC-1441 Same language code used multiple times in Dictionary causes errors.

Interface should block creation of duplicate Languages with same codes or names.

TWC-1459 Arabic, Hebrew, Persian etc. should be right-to-left after import of Dictionary Definition.

Also I removed from RTL languages stored in system: Azerbaijani, Turkmen, Zulu. First two definitely is using extended latin script, Zulu - seems too is using latin script.

TWC-1465 Impossible to export dictionary when domains structure is huge.

TWC-1532 (TWDESK-2654) Staging Area: "Auto" merging functionality not working

Updated message for version conflict resolution:

Open

Update 14.10.2024

Automatic merge

Old version was checking only for modification dates of ConceptDraft, and if it was changed, then draft has been ignored from automatic merging.

Updated code to check for modifications in fields:

• Concept fields and Drafts are compared. When both objects has changes in same fields, merge fails for this Concept. (e.g. in both objects new value for field Definition)

• Conflicting modification of reference links for concept fields should fail merge too

• Changes in Concept Relations should automatically update values in Draft, and these values should be not lost after publishing.

• Term fields and Drafts term fields are compared. When both objects has changes in same fields, merge fails for whole Concept. (e.g. in both terms new value for field Definition or name)

• Conflicting modification of reference links for term fields should fail merge too

• New terms from Concept must be merged into Draft without issues

Manual merge

• Fixed problem when it was impossible to select Term fields in merge dialog for different Terms:

  Open

  

   

• Fixed problem of not merging fields of Term level (existing and new Terms)

TWC-1540 (TWDESK-2711) Relations: Using a Relation in the "Add Concept Relation" window causes it be unresponsive.

Dialog has been rewritten.

Same fix has been applied to add cross reference dialog when navigation has been done to another term.

TWC-1667 Selecting several dictionaries for searching and then searching removes selection of many dictionaries

TWC-1699 Guests: Enable filters - Can use quick filters but did not show Quick filters menu

TWC-1725 Users without Administrator role must have the Edit Concept-level fields Permission to be able to save term changes

TermWeb will now properly check Concept Create permission when by allowing to save Concept without modifying Concept fields.

Domains being editable when editing of Concept fields is now disabled.

TWC-1735 Quick filter: Reopening and editing Quick filters does not apply changes first time

TWC-1860 Duplicate check gives false hits (alt. name: Duplicate check always includes all sections, even if fewer sections selected for search)

Added a hint for users about current behaviour.

Open

 

TWC-1861 (TWDESK-6461) Rollback of supplementary import does not work

Added wait dialog after user started restoration. Note that this can fail to update on long restoration operation.

com.nescit.term.log.CustomLogger : Sort terms function points to missing Field[oid='98ol7']

Has been fixed on 09.02.2024, 10:48, included in release 4.0.9-0.

TWC-1914 (TWDESK-7447) Removed Search settings icon from the Add and Edit Cross reference dialogs

TWC-1927 (TWDESK-7611) When using Concept ID as a Filter criteria, user was allowed to save filter with blank string (only whitespaces) which caused an error

TWC-1954 (TWDESK-8195) User groups: User groups found in drop-down menus are now sorted by creation date and not alphabetically

TWC-1961 (TWDESK-8297) Scheduled Jobs: Deleting Section that is included in Scheduled Jobs causes error

TWC-2007 (TWDESK-8730) API: Term decoration with straight apostrophe treated as curved apostrophe

TWC-2010 Imports: Multiterm files do not register as valid files and new languages are not created

Creation of languages in Multiterm import was never been supported nor implemented even though UI allowed it.

1. At least one matching language is required to perform synchronisation during import, so instead of continuing without matching languages, an updated validation message has been added:

   Open

   

2. Creation of languages for Multiterm file imports are now supported. Additionally, the actual language name will be shown instead of custom codes ‘eng-us’.

3. The import of other file formats (TBX/Excel) should not be affected by this changes.

TWC-2016 In a workflow that both contains a conditional required field and a triggered status value change, only the conditional required field works

TWC-2102 Batch Search Tool should report selected filed contents for terms found to exist in present dictionary

TWC-2144 (TWDESK-9387) Copy term: Copied terms revert to first language in list

TWC-2185 (TWDESK-9587) Workflows UI: Sort Terms function does not load correctly when reopening a Workflow

TWC-2189 Export / Import files (attachment)

Note: File repository will continue importing in the background after Concepts import and reference links are updated.

Two problems addressed:

1. Import failed when it contained files with names shorter then 3 characters, for example: _1.pdf

2. Import was not functioning correctly for files with uppercase file extension: 234.JPG

Additional fix added for when Export contained all files from repository including even files not linked to exported Concepts.

TWC-2190 (TWDESK-9454) In the System \ Statistics section of the Administration menu, incorrect information was displayed in the Daily summary section

TWC-2193 (TWDESK-9519) Import: Incorrect Permission check when Export page was loaded by users without Administrator role.

TWC-2202 API: Exact matches from XTM in Japanese are treated lower for Minimal Stem Length in API templates

TWC-2206 Deleting last Language containing concepts from Dictionary may take long time.

TWC-2211 History could not show for big dictionary with many concepts.

The handling of history items related to imports has been optimized to allow quicker loads of the History page in the Administration menu.

TWC-2216 (TWDESK-7447) UI: Cross references to terms with Geographical variants cause overlap of linked text.

TWC-2220 Workflows: Send email "digestto" changed to “digest to”.

The TermWeb 4.0.9-1 hotfix release is a security patch that also addresses minor usability issues.

TWC-2155 "AI-generated Auto-Filling of Term and Concept Attributes" added as a opt-in in the Administration menu > Clients interface. Requires additional server configuration to enable.

TWC-2160 Impossible to reset password for users without value set for Origin.

TWC-2164 Patched possible infinite loop when undoing import.

TWC-2165 (TWDESK-9496) Improved personal data privacy configurations with following changes:
