Release notes for v3.5.0

This release includes bug fixes and feature enhancements. For staff interface users, some of the most significant may be the ability to set column preferences for the Manage Top Containers area, reset passwords (when the feature is enabled by the system administrator), and a small redesign and bug fixes for reorder mode. For public interface users, this release includes some improvements to scrolling and performance of the Collection Organization section on resource records, which are the first in a group of usability improvements planned for future releases. Users will likely also welcome formatting changes made primarily to the public PDF to make the staff and public side PDFs more consistent with each other.

For developers and systems administrators, please note that while we are evaluating removing support for Java 8 in the near future, support for Java 8 will continue with 3.5.0. This release also includes a fix for handling changeovers to/from Daylight Saving Time.

This release includes 3 new database migrations. The schema number for this release is 175.

Solr Schema

The Solr schema has changed. A rebuild and reindex of the Solr core will be required:

-<schema name="archivesspace" version="1.5">
+<schema name="archivesspace" version="1.6">
-    <field name="fullrecord" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="false" multiValued="false" />
+    <field name="fullrecord" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="false" multiValued="true" />
+    <field name="fullrecord_published" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="false" multiValued="true" />
+    <copyField source="fullrecord_published" dest="fullrecord" />
-    <field name="notes" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="false" />
+    <!-- why are notes stored? (public app gets them from json for display) probably to support highlighting a long time ago -->
+    <!-- https://github.com/archivesspace/archivesspace/commit/87b7270f11456e0db329c45404333a1ce68419b8 -->
+    <field name="notes" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" />
+    <field name="notes_published" type="text_general" indexed="true" stored="true" multiValued="true" />
