Jahia 7.3.4 Release Notes

October 8, 2024

What's new?
  • Support for zip and unzip operations in Content and Media Manager
  • Allow non-ascii characters (using UTF-8 encoding) in vanity URLs
  • We have improved the performance of facets. See the Upgrading from a previous version? section below to find out how.
  • Update to jQuery 3.4.1 to benefit from security fixes

Spring bean modifications

  • If you have customized your application context in the file digital-factory-config/jahia/applicationcontext-custom.xml , please consult the list of changes we made in our Spring beans as you might need to update your configuration.

Improve the performance of facets

We have improved the loading time of faceted lists in this release, and this improvement is done in the JSP files of the facets, default and tags modules.

  • If you are using our default views, then you will automatically benefit from this improvement.
  • If you are using your own views for facets, lists or tags then you will have to update them to integrate our modifications, listed below, in order to benefit from the performance improvement. Otherwise, your facet lists will still work the exact same way, but without benefiting from the performance improvement.
