Features

Core CiviCRM

  • Improve quicksearch result presentation to enable browser link functions (19779)

    The results in the quick search in the menu bar now appear as actual links. Clicking an item acts the same as before, but you can now ctrl-click or right-click for advanced functions in your browser (such as to open the link in a new tab or window).

  • Add new super-duper-no-permissions-apply permission (19797)

    A new permission, "Administer all of CiviCRM", is established as a super-duper permission that implicitly has all other CiviCRM permissions. This is much like how a Drupal user with the ID 1 has all permissions, even if they're not individually granted.

  • AngularJS - Allow loading multiple apps on a single page (19922)

    Allows multiple Angular apps to run on a single page. For example, you might display 2x Angular-based tabs, 3x Angular-based WP shortcodes, or 4x Angular-based Drupal blocks.
