Jahia 8.0.2 Release Notes

Jahia 8.0.2 is a maintenance release that includes various bug fixes and some notable improvements to Jahia 8:

• Editors-in-chief and site administrators can now limit the number of items that can be created or displayed in a content list in Page Composer. Use this feature to reduce the number of buttons available for creating content in your pages and to make it easier for authors to drag-and-drop content to the correct location.
  • Read more about it at Changing the maximum number of items in a content list.
• System administrators can run integrity checks on a subtree
  An administrator can now provide the UUID of the parent node on which to run an integrity check in /tools/jcrIntegrityTools.jsp.
• Developer tools are now available in Jahia
  Developer tools have been moved from the /tools section to the main navigation in Jahia. No need to go to the tools anymore to execute a GraphQL query or generate a JWT token!
  • Introduced a new GraphQL editor
    We have also introduced GraphQL Playground, a more modern interface to build and execute GraphQL queries.
