v9.8.0

Changes

• Adds a marker to the start and end of section lines on the Route tab of the Sectioned Transects Edit Transect form, so that it is easier to distinguish where one section ends and another starts.

v9.7.0

Changes

• Support for caching in the Elasticsearch proxy layer, which is used when fetching location boundary geometries for the [leafletMap] new @boundaryLocationId option.
• New feature to allow a previous import to be reversed, i.e. the imported records removed.
• Improvements to fhe field labelling on the import v2 summary page - see BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1745.
• Change to the import v2 summary page icons for clarity - see BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1747.
• Changes to wording on the buttons used when saving matches during the preparation of a v2 import to make their purpose clearer.
• Elasticsearch [leafletMap] control has a new option @boundaryLocationId allowing a fixed location boundary to be shown on a report map.
• The list of records at multiple places [speciesmap] control now has a @locationName option allowing the site name for each individual added location to be captured.

Bugixes

• Bugfixes to using [higherGeographySelect] and [locationSelect] on Elasticsearch reporting pages so that they don't issue unnecessary report requests.
• Fix to caching file sharing across users, resulting in improved performance.
• Fix the behaviour of the Species Details prebuilt page type when the taxon identified in the link is not found - see BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1727.

v9.4.0

• The Bulk Edit tool now supports a preview of changes to a sample of records. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1673.
• New support for groups (iRecord Activities) being linked - a container group can contain multiple contained groups (in iRecord, the terminology will be Projects contain multiple Project Activities). A Container group is an administrative container for a collection of related projects, e.g. a larger project could be split into different teams on taxonomy, location or year. Containers have no data entry pages themselves but can have reports which collect all the records from the contained groups, and contained groups can automatically apply the filter of the container. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1678.
• The "Create or edit a group" prebuilt form has been modified to support options for controlling container and contained groups plus the permissions required to allow blogging.
• The Group Discovery tool now features a search and also allows viewing the list of groups (activities) you are a member of. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1681.

• The Elasticsearch dataGrid control has some bug fixes to behaviour when there is HTML in a column template.
• Aggregated Elasticsearch reports can now set a @shard_size option on the dataSource which can be used to increase the accuracy of aggregated data such as counts given in report results .
• The Elasticsearch dataGrid control now displays an icon indicating when a location name has been witheld for privacy reasons. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1714.
• Some restructuring of code, with a new PSR4 style class autoloader. As a result, any custom prebuilt forms should implement the IForm\prebuilt_forms\PrebuiltFormInterface interface and the getPageType() method in order to define whether a data entry, reporting or utility page.
• Conversion functions such as helper_base::ago and verification status mapping functions having been moved to the IForm\IndiciaConversions class.
• Some groundwork for removing the dependency on jQuery UI tabs.
• The sitename special Elasticsearch output field is now fully supported in dataGrids, not just for download.
• Bug fix so that downloads of Elasticsearch aggregated datasets now correctly show progress.
• Elasticsearch aggregate dataset downloads can now specify a sort order for the downloaded data.
• Fixes a bug that could result in the warning about verifying multiple records not appearing.
• Elasticsearch verification has option to link to the original data entry form for records input on the same website, rather than always reverting to a generic form. Set the option @useLocalFormPaths=true on the [verificationButtons] control.
• Update to use the latest BRC Charts code version.
• Typo corrected for the licences selector on the report filter builder - CCO corrected to CC0. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1728.

• Improved behaviour when selecting grid squares on a leaflet map to filter the grid to selected
  records.
• Modifications to the required state of precise grid ref fields in species entry grids. See
  BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1540.

• Tidy and simplify the code which attaches Indicia JavaScript to Drupal pages.
• Improvements to opacity of grid squares on Elasticsearch map outputs, so that grid squares should
  not completely obscure the background.
• Improved edit behaviour when editing a form with a fixed list of taxa in the species checklist
  control is impacted by taxonomy changes. If a record was entered which was originally the
  preferred taxon but is later relegated by a taxonomy change, then when editing the preferred
  taxon is automatically ticked, but the original ID is preserved and the user notified with an
  explanation label.
• The report filter builder [standard params] control now the following new options:
  • @layout=vertical displays the filter panes in a vertical layout.

v8.16.0

• Support for custom verification rules, allowing a verifier to define their own local rules and
  apply them to records they are verifying. For example, they can define phenology rules for when
  a species is likely to be found locally, or geography limits for where the species is likely or
  unlikely to be found. Sets of rules can be created by importing from spreadsheets and applied
  to the current set of verification records. To support this, the following new features are
  available:
  • A new [runCustomVerificationRulesets] control is available on pages of type "Elasticsearch
    outputs (customisable)". This adds a button allowing a user to access their rulesets, run
    them, or clear existing rule flags.
  • On verification pages supporting custom verification rules, set the following option on the
    [standardParams] control in order to enable filtering by presence or absence of custom
    rule check flags.

    @customRuleCheckFilters=true
    

    This adds extra options to the Quality filter pane.
  • A new Indicia page type "Custom verification ruleset edit form" under the "General Purpose
    Data Entry Forms" section. Allows a form to be created for editing or adding the metadata
    required for a set of custom verification rules.
  • A new Indicia page type "Custom verification rules upload tool" under the "Utilities" section
    which provides a tool for uploading rule definitions from spreadsheets.
• Support for maintaining a website containing records that are private or for verification only
  and not shared with public reporting pages. Tools are available allowing the user who uploaded
  records into this website to publish them by repatriating them into the website containing public
  data. In order for this to work, survey datasets must be created on both websites with identical
  structures. To support this, the following new features are available:
  • A new [recordsMover] control is available on pages of type "Elasticsearch outputs
    (customisable)". This adds a button with a popup that facilitates moving the current filtered
    set of records, or a selection taken from this set, from the private website dataset to the
    public website dataset.
    See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1396 for more info.
• Support for verification of multiple records of the same species in a parent sample in one step.
  For example, a timed count or transect protocal may cause a number of records of the same taxon
  to be recorded so a verifier may wish to verify them all together. See
  BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1274 for more info.
• Required dynamic attributes in a data_entry_helper::species_checklist control's columns will
  now have a "- please select -" option if they are select controls.
• Support for filtering on import_guids, allowing a report to create a link which shows all the
  records for an import.
• Support for adding an "Import Guid" column to the columns configuration for an Elasticsearch
  [dataGrid] control.
• Data imports for occurrences now allow sample attributes linked to the selected sample type to be
  selected for import. Previously this only worked for imports of samples without attached
  occurrences.
• Edit form for recording groups/activities now has the option to delete the group, rather than
  just set its expiry date.
• Tidying of the handling of notification categories, with queries and redets now having their own
  categories. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1362.
• Tidying of code in the Notifications Centre around the acknowledgement of notifications. Now
  affects the exact list of currently visible notifications. See
  BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1372 for more info.
