Download Sulu 2.2.2/2.1.6/1.6.38

Sulu is a content management system built on Symfony, a php web application framework. For more information about the how and what we refer to this page. The Sulu development team has released versions 2.2.2, 2.1.6 and 1.6.38. The accompanying announcement and list of changes look like this:

Sulu Release 1.6.38, 2.1.6 & 2.2.2

In accordance with our release guidelines, the 2.0.x version will no longer be published, but we are releasing Sulu 1.6.38, 2.1.6 and 2.2.2 today. So now you should update to at least Sulu 2.1 in order to receive further bug fixes, including those described in this blog post.

In addition to bug fixes, we also have snuck in a mini-feature, which enables content managers to filter content within a smart content by a type. So a smart content can now be configured to only return pages with a certain template, or media of a certain type. Examples of media types include image or document.

Release 1.6.38
This release fixes an issue with redirects. If a page is requested in a format other than HTML (eg JSON or XML), and the response redirects to another URL, then the format is lost. That means if you’ve originally requested a JSON page, you might have received HTML after a redirect! Alexander Schoonderwaldt has reported and fixed this issue, thank you very much for that!

Release 2.1.6
This is the release containing the new mini-feature mentioned above. With types, a new possibility to filter the result of a smart content has been introduced. This way the editor can filter pages and snippets by their template and media by their type (whether the file is a document, image, video or audio).

Unfortunately, we had to introduce a breaking change in order to introduce that feature. With the new feature there was an error when clearing the cache if a database connection had not yet been configured. We fixed that, but now each SmartContent DataProvider has to correctly enable the audience targeting filter on its own. Read more about that in our UPGRADE.md file.

Sulu 2.1.6 not only includes this new feature, but also some bug fixes. The following list only includes the most important ones, but there are more, including some annotation fixes for PHPStan.

• The account and media list did not work in combination with filters
• The administration interface logs an error message if its version does not match the Sulu version on the server
• As another DX improvement error messages thrown by our registries include the available options now
• The selection and single selection form fields will also display the publishing information now
• In some situations, an empty tab view was shown, which also has been fixed, and thank you Jordy Groote for reporting it with good reproduction steps!
• Sections can now be used within blocks
• A fix in order to properly support UTF8 in routes has been implemented
• The resource locator fields now replaces invalid characters
• Subscript, Superscript and code functionality have now been added to our text editor

Release 2.2.2
A few of the newer features we introduced in Sulu 2.2.0 did not always behave as expected. Therefore, some of the bug fixes only apply to this release:

• The generation of resource locators in the administration interface append a suffix to make them unique, although not necessary
• The new image map field type did not work properly in a block with a default value
• Pages can now reset to no segment, which was not possible before because of a bug

Upgrade
So unless you have been using a custom smart content dataprovider in combination with our audience targeting feature, this upgrade should be pretty easy to apply. Our documentation on upgrading a Sulu 2 installation should also help with that.

And as usual: please test this release, and tell us about any issues on Slack or via an issue on our GitHub repository.
