 9Overview
10========
11
12FeinCMS 1.2 sports several large changes, including:
13
14* Overhauled item editor. The new item editor uses standard Django administration
15  fieldsets; you can use almost all standard Django configuration mechanisms.
16  ``show_on_top`` has been deprecated, standard ``fieldsets`` should be used
17  instead.
18
19* The split pane editor has been removed. It wasn't much more than a proof of
20  concept and was never bug-free.
21
22* The required Django version is now 1.2. Compatibility with older Django versions
23  has been removed.
24
25* The rich text configuration has slightly changed; ``CkRichTextContent`` has
26  been completely removed in favor of a rich text editor agnostic configuration
27  method. ``TINYMCE_JS_URL`` should be replaced by an appropriate
28  ``FEINCMS_RICHTEXT_INIT_CONTEXT`` settings value. See the
29  :ref:`contenttypes` documentation for more details.
30
31* A new content type, ``TemplateContent`` has been added which can be used to
32  render templates residing on the hard disk.
33
34* The ``TreeEditor`` JavaScript code has been rewritten, reintroducing
35  drag-drop for reordering pages, but this time in a well-performing way not
36  sluggish as before.
37
38* ``feincms.models.Base`` is still available, ``feincms.models.create_base_model``
39  is the more flexible way of creating the aforementioned base model. If
40  ``create_base_model`` is used the base model can be freely defined.
41
42* Many small improvements and bugfixes all over the place.
