What's New in BlueSpice 4/5
User Features
Since BlueSpice 3, there have been many improvements for users regarding page editing. The enhancements to the visual editor are particularly noteworthy. Special content is now inserted using "Content Droplets." Copying existing content (e.g., via the clipboard) is also now reliably possible.
| Theme |
|---|
| Create Pages: New Button; Page Template vs. blank page, Input Box, Form |
| Visual Editing: Structuring Pages / Formatting Text ; Text Editing: Copy/paste; Drag-and-drop; Wiki syntax support (headings, code blocks); Linking pages within the context of namespaces |
| Special Content: Content Droplets: Text boxes, charts, icons, buttons; Ticket tracker; Tasks within page content |
| Word Import: Import of a Word Document (Performing a sample import) |
| Books: Bookshelf Changes; Pages can now exist in multiple books |
| Export: PDF Function |
| Walkthrough: Layout / Navigation and Menus (from user view) |
| Improved Search View: Quick Search and Search Center |
| Track Content: Improved "Recent Changes"; New view of special pages "Pages", "Files" (filtered by permissions) |
Administration
For administrators, little has changed between versions 3 and 5 in terms of user interface functionality. While the formatting of many special pages has been improved with regard to usability and accessibility, the range of functions remains very similar.
The following areas were discussed in the workshop:
| Theme |
|---|
| Interface (FlexiSkin) and navigation menus (Menu Editor for menu editing); Additional Menu now as a mega menu (flat structure only) |
| Ad-hoc Translation: Translation mechanism demonstrated |
| Support quality management: Use Release and Workflows; document control example |
| Make content discoverable: Provide portal pages with SMW queries; demonstrated with an example |
| PDF Templates Create: Templates must be "moved" from the server; are adjusted directly in the wiki in BlueSpice 5 |
| Permissions Management: Layout Change (with integrated group management and standard view / advanced view) |
Migration Guidelines: Orphaned Content - How to Handle It?
