Due to some changes on how the brand images (logos…) are returned, and the API $faces format change, it is not possible to run a Portal of another version on this server (without setting compliance parameters).

User Interface changes

A new “folder” based navigation can be added as a top level navigation, or as a new filter, on hierarchical metadata :

Please go over the /dam/explore/filters/default-cursor-config/default-resource-config.json and look for the "inTopPanel": true property to enable it for a property.

A new Feedback tab has been added and cannot be removed, it has to be on all Wedia DAM.

The Language switch has been redesigned in the Portal menu :

The breadcrumbs names of the back office have slightly been reworded : “List: object name”

A new Boards list mode has been added :

The Subtitle edition options are more clear :

The Portal Download options are more clear :

The Board display options now have a “table” options :

It is possible to reshare externally a public board :

The internal sharing options of a board have got a better layout :

New Roles and Permissions :

The new PKG_SECURITY plugin helps setting Roles and Permissions : Refer to Setting Up Permissions and Roles for more detailed explanations.

New capabilities for chaining variations :

The previous thumbnailXXX renditions are still not animated if the source is animated (GIF, WEBP animated…).

But new previewXXX have been added to support animations.

Using the WXM_BO_Options you can setup which variation chain should be used on the thumbnails :

New analytics

We are creating a new version of the back-office analytics screens. The old version will continue to work for a long time, but this new version will be in some point in the future the default version for the clients.

The new Analytics is now final, and should be activated on all clients systems.

To activate the new Analytics, you must activate the plugin “WXM_ANALYTICS_V2“ and create a new back office menu that will point to : wcm.jspz?form_action=stats

If you want to add some filters on asset properties, or the user, tag the properties with the following tag to the selected properties, and relaunch the analytics analysis with the reimport data options of the https://{your server}/admin/analytics screen.

To enable refresh on all the analytics screen, you need write the following redirect inbound rule :

Activated=true
Name=analytics-v2
From=^/analytics.*$
To=/wcm.jspz?form_action=stats
Encoding=(unchecked)
Sending=Redirection on the server (forward)

New structures

Structures pkgsecugroup and pkgsecupermission have been added to provide a simplified way of managing permissions in the application. Refer to Setting Up Permissions and Roles for more detailed explanations.

Updated structures

massimportitem

Fields changes

ai_concepts
- Marked not editable
- Changed tab-order (4200 →5600)
- Added technical description
ai_faces Field added so that AI metadata retrieved from Portal import are the same as from Back Office
ai_mainbg Field added so that AI metadata retrieved from Portal import are the same as from Back Office
ai_nbfaces Field added so that AI metadata retrieved from Portal import are the same as from Back Office
ai_nbfaces_senior Field added so that AI metadata retrieved from Portal import are the same as from Back Office

originalfilename: Added tag elasticsearch/analyzer/words_and_numbers This tag allows searching for a filename in fulltext without issues regarding special characters such as “_” which are common in filenames.

vueapphomewidget

The default provided structure suffered different issues:

some missing i18n fields, especially in german
faces were badly configured
fields have been reordered to group them
we added separators for each cart to ease contribution when multiple carts are available in the widget

Plugin WXM_RESTAPI

Compliance setup

defaultMassImportSimulationMetadataVersion
The format of the responses (JSon) of the simulation metadata (import or bulk tagging) has changed between version 11.30 and version 2021.3. In case you are using an older portal, it is possible to get a JSon in the old format by setting this parameter to V1 (or 1).
defaultFacesVersion
The response format (JSon) of the facet information has changed between version 11.30 and version 2021.3. In case you are using an older portal, it is possible to get a JSon in the old format by setting this parameter to V1 (or 1).
ignoreDXM
The API cookie domain adapts to the engine setting (DXM setting). If necessary, this setting can be used to disable this behavior.

Setup (new features)

restApiDirPurgeNode
This parameter enables automatic purging (at startup and shutdown of the plug-in) of the working folder in the san (san/_restapi) on a single node of a cluster, preferably on the "san" server. It is also possible to disable the purge by setting any value that does not match an existing node name.
massImportAsyncStoreCache
In order to reduce waiting times when submitting changes to asset metadata during import or mass tagging, cache backups are now done asynchronously by default. This parameter allows you to enable or disable this asynchronous mode.
It is possible to parameterize the thread pool manager in charge of these asynchronous treatments via the job configuration (parameter massImportJobConfig). See Mass imports/uploads | Configuration (plug in) , bullet massImportJobConfig .
