ENHANCEMENTS:
Mac and Windows sync clients will now be notified when they have updated content available for
download. These notifications will reduce load on the server and improve performance by avoiding
many unnecessary requests from clients to the server to check for updates when none are available.
Mac and Windows sync clients have been made more resilient to errors on single files and folders.
The client syncing process will no longer stop if a single locked file is updated. All other files which
can be successfully updated will be. The client syncing process will also no longer stop is a file
cannot be successfully downloaded. All other files which can be successfully downloaded will be.
Mac and Windows sync clients can now automatically download and install updates.
Download speed of large numbers of files to sync client has been improved.
Altering the preferences on the client will no longer cause a paused client to begin syncing.
Windows sync client now offers a "Show previous activEcho versions" context menu option.
The Projects tab in the web interface has been optimized for increased performance and smoother
user interaction.
The Projects tab now supports pagination, sorting, filtering.
The move dialog in the web interface now loads quickly, even when the user has a large hierarchy of
folders.
All client connections can be disabled for administrative purposes from the Server Settings page in
the web UI.
All timestamps used for comparison or calculation will now be set to database time instead of server
time to ensure proper operation in a cluster scenario.
The web interface now provides support for non-US date-time formats.
Duplicate folder updates will no longer cause multiple revisions of the folder to be created.
The default PostgreSQL installation is now configured with more carefully tuned parameters to
improve performance.
User proxy AD objects can now successfully authenticate to activEcho.
Multiple domains can now be provided for LDAP configuration to be automatically pre-pended to
usernames for login.
Links in emails when sharing a folder to a new user will now direct the user into the new share on the
website. Note that if the default templates have been altered, the passkey paths in the notification
email template will need to be modified to look like this:
<%= @root_web_address %>
<%= passkey_path( @passkey, { :redirect_path =>
show_contents_node_path( @node.uuid, {:show_sync_lightbox => true} ) } ) %>
