Also removed archived groups from memberships returned by list-member-memberships service except when `archived=true` parameter is used. | 522292 | 10 Oct 2014 | 5.6916 |
| **Replaced:** the pageseeder-standalone/complete-x.sh Linux installer with an RPM that can be installed using yum. Also made the following changes: installation directory is now `/opt/pageseeder`PageSeeder runs as the 'pageseeder' user instead of 'root' for better securityadded support for using reverse proxies such as Nginx which allows PageSeeder to share a single IP with other websitesadded a maintenance page which can be displayed when PageSeeder is downadded heap dump on out of memory to `/home/pageseeder` directory to diagnose issuesadded option to create MySQL database (now there's no need to create it manually)removed `com.pageseeder.Update` servlet which previously had to be accessed to update the database - the database is now updated automatically when PageSeeder starts | 522478 | 3 Oct 2014 | 5.6916 |

| **Added:** `documentPort` and `documentScheme` to `template.properties` which are now the port and scheme used for all document URIs. These are independent from the `webSitePort` and `webSiteScheme` used to access the server. When changing the `webSitePort` or `webSiteScheme`, for the server you should generally NOT do Update Objects on the Hosts page. | 518678 | 26 Sep 2014 | 5.6916 |
| **Fixed:** some notifications not being sent to members with notification options set to send attachments. | 521950 | 26 Sep 2014 | 5.6916 |

| **Added:** support for SMTP authentication of outgoing emails with `smtpServerUsername` and `smtpServerPassword` in `global.properties`. Also disabled `mailRelay` property due to spam issues. Other applications using PageSeeder to relay email will need to use an alternative SMTP server. | 520898 | 27 Aug 2014 | 5.6909 |
| **Modified:** the PageSeeder database as follows: Added constraint on `MEMBER_FOR_DGROUP` table to stop duplicate membership records.Increased `DGROUP.OwnerDirectory` size to `60` to stop issues with long project names.Added `DGROUP.XRefsModified` for future caching.Increased `MEMBER.FirstName` and `MEMBER.Surname` sizes to `50`.Changed `XLINK.ContentTitle` and `CONTENT.Data` to character set `utf8mb4` to support non-BMP characters (e.g. Emoji).Removed unused `AutoToolbar` and `AutoSeed` fields.Removed old references to Oracle and SQL Server. Supporting non-BMP characters requires MySQL 5.5.3 or higher and the `my.ini` file needs to be modified by changing all instances of `utf8` to `utf8mb`4 and RESTART MySQL. Also ensure that this version or later mysql-connector-java-5.1.32.jar is in the following folders: pageseeder/webapp/WEB-INF/drivers and lib BEFORE UPGRADING, any duplicate `MEMBER_FOR_DGROUP` records will need to be deleted. Check for duplicates via the MySQL command line using: SELECT DISTINCT t1.\* from MEMBER\_FOR\_DGROUP t1,MEMBER\_FOR\_DGROUP t2 WHERE t1.groupid = t2.groupid AND t1.memberid=t2.memberid AND t1.memberforgroupid\<\>t2.memberforgroupid; | 516438 | 19 Aug 2014 | 5.6909 |
| **Added:** support for `processed="false"` on `ps:process` Ant task to leave `document/@level="portable"` (useful if uploading result). Also fixed schema issues with `manifestdoc` option. | 520219 | 12 Aug 2014 | 5.6909 |

| **Fixed:** project labels not available in PSML editor if config folder for document type is missing. | 519933 | 6 Aug 2014 | 5.6909 |
| **Improved:** stability by removing `document()` and `doc-available()` functions in XSLT and changed the Insert XRef, Move Comment and Move Document pages to use breadcrumb bars. Also added the following services: list-groupfolders list-uri-uris list-uri-uris-forurl The relationship/level parameter value "ancestors-children" in external uri services is no longer allowed. Projects using this should be updated to use either "ancestors" or "children". | 504709 | 6 Aug 2014 | 5.6909 |
| **Fixed:** override="true" on `<publishing>` not working in document-config.xml. | 518857 | 1 Aug 2014 | 5.6909 |
| **Simplified:** document versions by moving task fields (`status`, `priority`, `assignedto` and `duedate`) to a separate task called a Workflow. The version name can be free text, a number or now a date (e.g. 2014-08-19). **Modified:** the following user interface pages: Document Versions Page: Removed task fields.Document Comments Page: Added Workflow section.Comment Thread Page: Handle Workflow statuses.Comment Reply Page: Handle Workflow statuses.Create Version Page: Removed task fields.Version Folder Page: Removed task fields.Batch Add Version Page: Removed task fields.Document Browse: Added 'Workflow' option on folders.Search Results: Added 'Add Workflow' batch option.Fragment History Page: Removed version status. **Added:** the following user interface pages: Create Workflow PageWorkflow Folder PageBatch Add Workflow Page Modifed PSML by removing from `<version>` the attributes `@status`, `@priority`, `@due` and element `<assignedto>` and adding `<author>` element. Also removed from `<compareto>` the attribute `@status`. Modified index to remove `psstatuschangeddate`, `pspriority`, `psduedate` and `psassignedto` from PS standard and PSML documents. Modified the following services: Removed parameters: `status`, `priority`, `duedate` and `assignedto`. [create-uri-version](../../../api/services/create-uri-version_post.md) Removed from `<version>` element, the attributes `@status`, `@priority`, `@due` and element `<assignedto>` and added `<author>` element. [list-uri-versions](../../../api/services/list-uri-versions_get.md) Added the following services: [create-uri-workflow](../../../api/services/create-uri-workflow_post.md) [get-uri-workflow](../../../api/services/get-uri-workflow_get.md) [list-fragment-edits](../../../api/services/list-fragment-edits_get.md) Modified Ant task `ps:export` by removing `<compareto>` and `<version>` element options. Existing versions will still appear but without task fields. Existing versions with status will now also appear under Workflows. Projects using status on versions or `psstatuschangeddate`, `pspriority`, `psduedate`, `psassignedto` index fields on documents will need to be updated to use workflows. | 518506 | 1 Aug 2014 | 5.6909 |

| **Modified:** batch Validate by folder or search results to work with PSML documents and not PS Standard documents. The same for XML Usage schema creation from search results (Lab perspective). Projects that need batch validation of PS Standard documents will need to convert them to PSML. | 517520 | 11 Jul 2014 | 5.6909 |
