Hi everyone,

Newscoop 4.0.1 is out now and ready for installation! This is a bugfix release. The key headlines are....

1) We zapped a critical bug preventing users inserting images and attachments into an article via the tinymce editor. It wasn't affecting all users, only some special set-ups, but it was a common problem in the forums.

2) It's now possible to correctly merge article types. It's not a widely used feature yet, an important one and we wanted to take care of it. Fixed!

3) Due to a bad SQL query, in some special cases (and for languages like Georgian), the Issues in the admin interface were disappearing. That's not good, so we fixed that pronto.

4) Due to another SQL problem (missing field in database) it was not possible to add authors to articles (or list the already attached in
case of an upgrade). It is now.

5) Saving a template in the themes manager for the first time no longer throws an Internal Server Error. Phew.

Other than that, we also took some time to make improvements to the upgrade process, improve handling of Webcodes and we pushed some other minor bug fixes. The full changelog in all its glory is here.



So, happy publishing. Don't forget, Sourcefabric can install and host
Newscoop for you, no matter what size of audience of type of site you
have. Check out Newscoop Pro for the full range of options!

Best, Adam and the Newscoop team
