Patch Version 6.0.1.

While the overall response to version 6.0 has been very good, given the nature of introducing a major new component like the new editor, a number of bugs have come to light. Some of these seem to have only affected a few people, but some will affect more people. Full details below.

We'd recommend anyone on 6.0 upgrade to 6.0.1. Downloads on the pages for ProjectForum or CourseForum.

Of course, if you notice any other issues with this version, or have additional questions, please get in touch.

Bug fixes:


  • Fix problem where bold and italic formatting entered in Safari wasn't being
    correctly converted to wiki markup
  • Handle embedded non-breaking space characters inserted by the richtext editor
    in some browsers
  • Render HTML blocks as the original HTML source in the editor, preventing some
    errors when opening and closing tags were in separate blocks
  • Don't interpret custom links in the richtext editor
  • Changes on Mac OS X to prevent Leopard's firewall breaking the application when
    set to restrict specific applications
  • Administrative info links on directory page weren't being properly closed
  • Indent/outdent are now available only for list items to facilitate nested lists
  • Remove blockquote tags, replacing with nested lists where appropriate
  • If the richtext editor fails to load, a link will be shown directing the user
    to the markup editor
