News Ametys 4.3

This new version brings several new features and enhancements.
Here's an overview of what's new!

CMS

Improved gallery display and search

New features make it easier to search and display galleries: filter, icon view, list view, and choice of whether or not to display categories.

Enhanced image insertion

Ametys offers the option of cropping an image during insertion.
Users can choose to keep only the part of the image that interests them.

Inheritance of rights assignment disabled

Disabling inheritance when assigning rights is now available.

Make a site unlistable with a single click

It's now possible to exclude the entire site from referencing in a single action.

Reporting content

From now on, a visitor can report that content proposed by another visitor is inappropriate.
A reporting dashboard is also available.

Administration

Data archiving

Ametys offers an import/export system,
useful for making partial backups or moving a site from one server to another, for example.

A new tool allows you to view and manage the various Ametys caches (with information such as size, total number of accesses, number of successes and failures, number of elements) and to empty these caches.

Modifying parameter files

Application parameter files can now be modified directly from the administration interface and back-office, via a file explorer and integrated text editor.

Script help tool

A new help tool for the script console provides documentation on available variables and functions.

Integration

Enhanced page creation wizard

The page creation wizard has been enhanced to make the user's work easier: optional selection of a parent page, simplified label management, optional masking of content type and template selection pages.

Graphic charter heritage

To simplify graphic integration, Ametys now supports graphic charter inheritance: one charter can extend another to simply overload a few graphic elements (color themes, visuals, etc.).

View settings

Parameters can now be configured for templates, zones, zone items, content view and service view.
These allow you, for example, to :
- choose a background color for content
- choose a banner image for a section.

The mock-up tool has been enhanced with new components to facilitate display and rendering of the mock-up: filter, display of global validation status, display of indicators in pictogram form (lifecycle status, shared elements).

Enhancing existing reports

The "MCC extraction", "Model" and "Student hourly volume" reports have been reworked to make them easier to read and use.
