Version 3.0.13

• SCPrinters DemoSite v.3.0.13 Change Log:
• SharePoint server on Virtual Image now has URL http://masterdemoportal
• Valid masters: Removed masters set on items, so that standard items are used instead. Items that have a unique master set (like sections) continue to use item-based master setup.
• News date: Renderings are updated to be able to use created date, if needed. Removed “Epson accepted by China” explicit news date, so that creation date is used instead.
• Translation rules: It is possible to define which fields must be translated for each template, using content items at /sitecore/content/modules/translation rules. If the item doesn’t have one of the required fields translated, language switcher bar will not display the language.
• RSS: RSS displays older news, so that it has plenty of entries out of the box. In fact 10 newest news items for the last 2 years are displayed.
• Performance Adjustments: The site now uses more aggressive cache settings.
• Default printer image: product template now has a default printer image set using standard values.
• Printer category listing: printer image has maxHeight=120 and maxWidth=90, so that dynamic image scaling can be demonstrated.
• News details: applied maxHeight and maxWidth.
• Fixed: The demo site is not valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional. Note: The Forum module pages were not validated due to the module issues.
• Fixed: Phishing attacks on Sitecore is possible. It has been fixed via global.asax according to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/887459 with some additional checking.
• Fixed: "Site help item" field for ALL users except Administrators should be hidden (deny read access for the "Everyone" role).
• Fixed: Now that polls are "priority C", could we then hide the /sitecore/content/Polls node? And maybe also deny read access to everyone so that nobody (except administrators) sees this node? It has been hidden for “Everyone”.
• Fixed:  Check broken links (start Broken link report).  Note: it has been fixed except system nodes. The fresh Sitecore 5.3 installation has broken links in system nodes and templates.
• All code-behind classes were adjusted for ASP.NET 2.0 model and Web Application Project of VS2005.
