3.1 | 13 | == Flamingo == |
| |
1.1 | 14 | |
| |
3.1 | 15 | Following the introduction of the Nested Documents feature, we have made some modifications to the Flamingo skin: |
| |
1.1 | 16 | |
| |
9.1 | 17 | * For non terminal documents, we have introduced a "Page Administration", where you will find settings that concern the document and its children (it's actually the old space administration behind the scene). But we have also introduced 2 sections for setting rights on these pages: |
| |
10.1 | 18 | ** a section to set rights for the document only. |
| 19 | ** a section to set rights for the document and its children. | ||
| |
3.1 | 20 | * For terminal documents, nothing changes, you can change the access rights of the page in the "edit" menu. The only addition is a "Administer Parent" link in the "More actions" menu to administer the parent page (which again is the space administration behind the scene). |
| |
25.1 | 21 | * The create action has been relooked (with the introduction of the "page type" field) and proposes to import an office document. |
| |
28.1 | 22 | * A new "children" viewer is now accessible in the "more actions" menu, along with the other viewers. |
 |
34.2 | 23 | * For Terminal Pages, a new "siblings" viewer is present, which replaces the old "space index" feature. |

40.1 | 36 | == Solr Search == |
| 37 | |||

| 39 | |||
| 40 | {{image reference="searchResultLocation.png" /}} | ||
| 41 | |||
| 42 | The "Space" facet has been replaced with a "Location" facet that supports nested documents. This allows you to search in a specific location in the page hierarchy. | ||
| 43 | |||
