Release 1.6.1 Scheduled

Scheduled release 3/28/2022

We will update the CAWeb Publishing theme to version 1.6.1 on the evening of 3/28/2022. The CAWeb Publishing Service team will be making these updates during our published Preventative Maintenance window, 9:00 PM to 11:00 PM. The update should take no more than 15 minutes and no downtime for site visitors, authors, editors or admins is expected. The features being provided are listed below. If you have any questions or concerns contact us at cawebpublishingsupport@state.ca.gov.

CAWeb Accessibility and State Template Fixes

  1. Removing newly added code that is causing excessive Read/Write activity on the file system.
  2. We are modifying the theme to align with our new hosting provider.  To accomplish this we are removing the ability to add Manual JavaScript and Manual CSS.  Going forward all custom CSS and JavaScript will be required to be placed in files.  If your site currently has manual JavaScript or manual CSS we will move them to a file for you.  You should not see any difference in the way your site functions.
