August 2024 django CMS Fellow Report is here

Releases

• Django-filer 3.2.0: django-filer 3.2 features a new permissions cache that for installations with many folders/users significantly increases responsiveness. The thumbnail generation process has been streamlined: no SVG thumbnails for the directory listings and fewer sizes for other formats - saves storage space and improves speed. Finally, a bug has been fixed, allowing Image.MAX_IMAGE_PIXELSto be None.
• Djangocms-text 0.2.2: A few bugs have been fixed, especially the missing styling for dialogue boxes when inline editing was disabled.
• Djangocms-bootstrap4 3.0.2: A small bug fix where the use of gettext_lazy led to an exception.
