What’s New in Jahia 6.6
Jahia introduced its free WYSIWIG user interface (UI) creation tool, Jahia Studio, in the last release, Jahia 6.5. The latest release enhances the tool with several features that streamline the UI development process such as:
- More efficient management of interfaces and components permissions
- Additional deployment options for modules including the ability to bulk deploy
- Better management of module dependencies, which makes packaging applications easier
- The ability to restore deleted content items
Jahia also made several enhancements to the CMS’ core platform. A new framework, the Visibility Framework, was added to support personalization and more advanced content delivery. Using the functionality, administrators can specify conditions to control content visibility; three pre-built conditions, which control content visibility based on time, are included with the release.
Administrators get more advanced administration capabilities like new configuration options for stack traces, thread and memory dumps. These features will make it easier for administrators to troubleshoot issues with the platform. Jahia also added extend import and export mechanisms.
Other notable enhancements to the core platform include:
