2.12.0-alpha1
Pre-release
This is a pre-release for the next minor version (feature release) of Arizona Quickstart 2. Pre-releases are not supported for production sites but are intended for widespread testing in preparation for the upcoming stable release.
For more information about the changes in this release, please see the project page.
Important Notes
Visual changes to News items
AZ News content type displays are changed to have the image on the left instead of right of the content.
AZ News view displays have been changed. The former "Small Row View" display has changed its name to "Sidebar Row View". A new view display called "Small Row View" has been added to show the new "Small Row" display of AZ News content.
Better exposed filters dependencies no longer needed
This release updates Better Exposed Filters from 6.0.6 to the 7.x major version. The jquery_ui_slider and jquery-ui-touch-punch modules are no longer required for Better Exposed Filters or for anything else in Quickstart. These two modules have been deprecated as Quickstart dependencies and will be removed in a future minor release of Quickstart. Site owners should uninstall these modules or add them to their site-specific composer.json files to continue using them.
Deprecated variable in az-accordion.html.twig template
The aria_controls variable used in the az_accordion theme implementation and az-accordion.html.twig template has been deprecated as of 2.12.0 and will be removed in 2.13.0. Any subthemes that override this template will need to replace the aria_controls variable with the accordion_item_id variable. See #3807.
CKEditor Anchor Link Plugin added
Users with the content editor role can now easily create anchor links in text areas using the Standard text formatter.
filter_autop removed from Standard Text format
This release disables the Convert line breaks into HTML (i.e. <br> and <p>) filter for the Standard text format. This change resolves issues with the appearance and functionality of multiple elements in Quickstart. However, while most existing content should be unaffected, this change may result in some minor spacing changes, where extra blank lines may be removed or added. We may consider enabling this filter again in the future if this Drupal core issue regarding the filter is resolved.
New Profile Editor role
A new Profile Editor role has been added to Quickstart. This role gains permission to edit Person nodes where the user is assigned as the author, or Person nodes that have the same NetID as the user's login.
The role also has the ability to change the order and visibility of publications shown on the Publication block on their Person page.
Change to summary fields
News, Events, and Pages with a populated summary field values will notice a change if the content within the field has a link or email within a clickable card. These will no longer be automatically displayed as links and will be displayed as plain text.
Card link title accessibility improvements
Link titles are now required when adding or editing cards containing a link URL value. Existing cards will need to be updated manually.
How to update
Refer to Updating your Quickstart website on the wiki for more information.
