< h1 > Dokeos 1.8.6.1 - August 2009< / h1 >
< h3 > Release notes - summary< / h3 >
< p > Dokeos 1.8.6.1 is a minor release including just a few new features, mostly focused on internationalization, and several bugfixes.< / p >
< h3 > New Features< / h3 >
< ul >
< li > Implemented new sub-language feature by which language terms redefinition becomes possible through the admin section (FS#4321)< / li >
< li > Admin: Terms and conditions added DT#4320< / li >
< li > Improvements in document tool, allow seeing glossary terms (FS#4337)< / li >
< li > Small improvements in SCORM export(FS#4300)< / li >
< li > At the beginning of the installation script, added an imperative check for PHP 5 has been added. (FS#4296)< / li >
< li > When the system Dokeos is switched into "Test server" mode, a clickable indicator appears in the footer. This indicator is visible by platform administrators only. (FS#4341)< / li >
< li > A transliteration function has been added. Currently, it is used in uploading files. Files with non-English names get names that contain ASCII letters only, remaining readable in the corresponding language. Rationale: The PHP5 run-time environment does not manage file name encodings, adding such a non-native feature involves too much work. For avoiding character encoding problems, transliteration of file names is the possible solution. (FS#306)< / li >
< li > An internationalization option has been added for improving sorting in arbitrary language. When the < a href = "http://php.net/manual/en/book.intl.php" target = "_blank" > intl< / a > php-extension has been installed, various sorting routines exploit it for better sorting. Rationale: The PHP5 run-time environment does not provide native and reliable way of sorting UTF-8 strings. (FS#306)< / li >
< li > Installation script: The page about system requilements has been updated. Also, at the very beginning, a check has been added whether the < a href = "http://php.net/manual/en/book.mbstring.php" target = "_blank" > mbstring< / a > php-extension is installed - see < a href = "http://dokeos.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29548" target = "_blank" > the related forum topic< / a > . (FS#306)< / li >
< li > A new php-based configuration for the online editor has been implemented, see < i > dokeos/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/myconfig.php< / i > . Also, toolbar definitions have been split in separate php-files within the directory < i > dokeos/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/toolbars/< / i > . Customization of the editor is more convenient and flexible now. (FS#2867)< / li >
< li > Online editor: A upgrade from FCKEditor 2.6.4 to < strong > FCKEditor 2.6.4.1< / strong > has been implemented. (FS#4383)< / li >
< li > Online editor: Blocking copy/paste for trainees has been added. The feature is configurable through editing the toolbar definition files within the directory < i > dokeos/main/inc/lib/fckeditor/toolbars/< / i > . (FS#2867)< / li >
< li > Online editor: Preview tabs have been added to the dialogs for inserting video, flv-video, and YouTube video. (FS#2867)< / li >
< li > Online editor: The < strong > audio< / strong > plugin has been activated by default as an implementation of the "Insert audio / Audio properties" dialog. This new plugin is intended to replace the "MP3" plugin. (FS#2867)< / li >
< li > Online editor: The simple file manager, the advanced file manager and the image manager have been integrated by default with the editor's dialog system. Thus, they work faster and in a more secure way. (FS#2867)< / li >
< li > Online editor: Configuration of the < strong > mimetex< / strong > plugin has been reworked to gain simplicity. The procedure for configuration has been updated, see < a href = "http://www.dokeos.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=29594" target = "_blank" > the related forum topic< / a > . (FS#2867)< / li >
< li > Online editor: A new < strong > asciimath< / strong > plugin for inserting mathematical formulas has been added. It is based on the < a href = "http://mathcs.chapman.edu/~jipsen/mathml/asciimath.html" target = "_blank" > ASCIIMathML.js< / a > library. (FS#2867)< / li >
< li > Social: Added possibility to define RSS feeds inside personal page of social network (need to define an 'rssfeeds' extra user text field)< / li >
