Panopoly

We encourage users to post events happening in the community to the community events group on https://www.drupal.org.

This is where Panopoly maintainers, contributors and stakeholders meet to coordinate overall development of Panopoly. If you use Panopoly or maintain a distribution based on Panopoly, this is the place for you!

We also have the #panopoly IRC channel on freenode.net, if you're looking to discuss in realtime over chat. (Learn to to setup IRC.)

Panopoly 1.16 released for SA-CONTRIB-2015-039

Hi Everyone!

Views 3.10 was released yesterday to fix a less critical security vulnerability. You can learn more in the security advisory:

SA-CONTRIB-2015-039 - Views - Multiple vulnerabilities

Beyond the Views update, this also includes a number of other upgrades and some new features! Here are the highlights:

  • Search improvements: Finally, we've updated to the last versions of the Search API suite of modules (we were previously stuck on a version that was 1.5 years old). Also, content added to a page via "Customize this page" is now searchable! Previously, only content stored in fields on the node was searchable.
  • Module updates: We've updated CTools, Panels and Features to their latest versions! CTools and Panels include many bug fixes and small feature improvements.
  • "Content item" widget: Many improvements and bug fixes have been made, including allowing users to override the title and preventing the widget from being broken when the title of the underlying content item changes.
  • "File" widget: You can now easily configure the list of allowed file extensions - without causing the Feature to become overridden.

Placeholders in vanilla panopoly

I've been searching for a way to pass placeholder url arguments (e.g. %argument, !argument, etc.) to views in unmodified Panopoly. I can't seem to when adding content using Panopoly's Content function (admin/content). On the other hand, I am able to pass arguments using configuration options found under the Page Manager interface (admin/structure/pages). Panopoly doesn't enable the standard Page Manager interface by default.

Panopoly 1.14 released for SA-CORE-2014-006 (and Radix Layouts!)

Hi Everyone!

You may have heard about a moderately critical security vulnerability for Drupal core, that was fixed in Drupal 7.34 (released yesterday). You can learn more in the security advisory:

Drupal Core - Moderately Critical - Multiple Vulnerabilities - SA-CORE-2014-006

Beyond the Drupal core update, this also includes a number of minor bug fixes, and one big change: switching to Radix Layouts, rather than providing custom layouts in Panopoly Theme!

Unlike most Panopoly releases, this one may require some additional action on your part after the upgrade - so see the release notes for special instructions!

Why switch to Radix Layouts?

This is something we've been trying to do for around two years! It took lots of effort by many people, including a final push at the Panopoly sprint at BADCamp, to get this finally merged.

There are several advantages to this switch:

  • Panopoly Theme provides more than just cool Panels layouts, and the extra stuff it provides is mostly Panopoly-specific. Radix Layouts provides just Panels layouts, with equivalent versions of all the Panopoly layouts, so we'd prefer to support the more reusable alternative that people can use on non-Panopoly sites too!
  • Radix Layouts uses the Bootstrap 3 grid system (although, it can work in non-Bootstrap 3 themes just fine). Panopoly Theme used custom CSS - no grid system at all! Having this grid system available in Panopoly means you can use it to create your custom layouts too, which is much easier to use than custom CSS.
  • Radix Layouts are compatible with the Radix theme (our old layouts weren't), which is one of the most commonly used base themes with Panopoly. This is also a first step to including the Radix theme in Panopoly (also a long time in the making).
  • This removes TONS of code from Panopoly-specific modules, which means less code for us to maintain :-)

Panopoly 1.14 Breaks website

Since Panopoly moves from it's own to Radix themes, multiple websites I have made with Panopoly built-in themes break.

Reason is that I use the css classes used in the older themes.

I checked if it would be easy to address this but for multiple sites this will take a LONG time.

I understand the reasoning to move to Radix but I also think it should be somehow backwards compatible.

Anyone who knows a solution?

Panopoly sprint at BADCamp on November 6th and 7th!

Hi Everyone!

I'm pleased to announce that there will be a 2 day Panopoly sprint at BADCamp in San Francisco, CA on November 6th (Thursday) and 7th (Friday)!

A "sprint" is an event where a group of people get together to work on something for a few hours. Sprints aren't limited to technical people or coders - people of all skill sets can contribute.

Here's some documentation describing all the ways you can contribute:

http://bit.ly/panopoly-sprint

We really need help with these things in particular:

  • Confirming bugs, ie. trying to reproduce the problem and see if it's a real bug
  • Testing patches and seeing if they do what the issue says they do
  • Tagging and triaging issues, ie. organizing the issues so they're easier to manage
  • Doing code review on patches to make sure they follow best practices (for coders)
  • Writing patches to fix confirmed bugs (for coders)

But you're not limited to those things! You can also help by writing documentation, creating Behat tests, finding new bugs in Panopoly, etc.

If you're going to be at BADCamp, I really hope you'll join us on Thursday or Friday! (No need to spend the whole time sprinting with us, stay as long or short as you want.)

If so (or even if you're a "maybe"), please sign up on the official spreadsheet.

Thanks!

Panopoly 1.13 released to fix update bug in 1.12 (Issue #2358829)

Hi Everyone!

Shortly after release of Panopoly 1.12, a bug in the update process was discovered by Steve Hanson:

https://www.drupal.org/node/2357515

Great catch, Steve! Thanks for reporting the issue right away and including so much detail. :-)

This bug doesn't affect all sites - so, if you updated to Panopoly 1.12 and ran update.php or drush updb without any problems, then you don't need to worry about this.

However, since it will affect some sites and updating to Drupal 7.32 (which is in Panopoly 1.12) is so critical, we've decided to release Panopoly 1.13 with the fix!

(BTW, if you haven't updated yet - you should do so immediately! The security vulnerability fixed in Drupal 7.32 is highly critical.)

For more information, please see the full release notes:

https://www.drupal.org/node/2358829

Panopoly 1.12 released for SA-CORE-2014-005

Hi Everyone!

You may have heard about a highly critical security vulnerability for Drupal core, that was fixed in Drupal 7.32 (released today). You can learn more in the security advisory:

SA-CORE-2014-005 - Drupal core - SQL injection

Beyond the Drupal core update, this also includes:

  1. Addition of the Distro Update module, which should make it easier to manage updates to individual modules.
  2. Upgrading Linkit from version 2 to 3. (Nota bene: If you customized your LinkIt configuration, you may experience some issues (either WSOD or JS errors in the WYSIWYG) after the update. Check your settings at /admin/config/content/linkit. You may need to revert the Panopoly WYSIWYG feature or re-export any custom features with LinkIt profiles. More information on the update here - #2186541.)
  3. Dozens of bug fixes and minor module updates

We can thank the two recent sprints (in Amesterdam and virtually) for the large number of changes this time around! Thanks, everyone, for your hard work. :-)

How to stage changes to panels layout or content

We've got a site built on Panopoly and we are needing to build lots of landing pages and sometime stage content changes to our panels pages and panelized nodes. This is really hard since we can't find anyway to save a draft revision of a panels layout, and it's also hard to work with fieldable panel panes. We installed Node Clone module to help with building new pages, and while panelizer seems to handle that well, it doesn't clone the fieldable panels panes, so editing those on the cloned pages also update those panes on the original page.

Upcoming sprints at DrupalCon Amsterdam!

Hi Everyone!

I'm happy to announce that there will be two Panopoly-related sprints coming up at DrupalCon Amsterdam!

The first will be on Monday, September 29th, starting at 3pm (local Amsterdam time) - it's the Phase2 Distribution Hack-a-Thon. There will be prizes sponsored by both Pantheon and Phase2, to create the best Panopoly App!

Then on the official sprint day on Friday, October 3rd, starting at 9am (or 7am UTC), there will be (among several others) a Panopoly sprint. Virtual participation will be possible in this one, meaning anyone can participate over the internet from anywhere in the world. Please sign up on this spreadsheet.

A "sprint" is an event where a group of people get together to work on something for a few hours. Sprints aren't limited to technical people or coders - people of all skill sets can contribute. However, as a virtual sprint, it will be a little easier for more technical people to get involved.

Virtual Panopoly Sprint on September 6th - Help make Panopoly better!

Start: 
2014-09-06 10:00 - 16:00 America/Chicago
Organizers: 
Event type: 
Sprint

Hi Everyone!

We're organizing a Panopoly sprint on Saturday, September 6th, from 10am to 4pm CDT (UTC-0500).

The sprint will be "officially virtual," meaning anyone can participate over the internet from anywhere in the world. (However, we're also going to have a physical location to meetup for people in Milwaukee, WI, USA - more details on that below)

A "sprint" is an event where a group of people get together to work on something for a few hours. Sprints aren't limited to technical people or coders - people of all skill sets can contribute. However, as a virtual sprint, it will be a little easier for more technical people to get involved.

Here is a documentation describing all the ways you can contribute:

http://bit.ly/panopoly-sprint

Our primary goal for this sprint, is to try to reduce the number of issues in the issue queue. At the moment we have 277 open issues, including 111 bugs. I'd really love to get the open issues down to 200 and the bugs to 50. :-)

Anyway, that means we really need help with these things in particular:

  • Confirming bugs, ie. trying to reproduce the problem and see if it's a real bug
  • Testing patches and seeing if they do what the issue says they do
  • Tagging and triaging issues, ie. organizing the issues so they're easier to manage
  • Doing code review on patches to make sure they follow best practices (for coders)
  • Writing patches to fix confirmed bugs (for coders)

But you're not limited to those things! You can also help by writing documentation, creating Behat tests, finding new bugs in Panopoly, etc.

Panopoly 1.11 release for SA-CONTRIB-2014-077

Hi Everyone!

TableField 2.3 was released yesterday to fix a moderately critical security vulnerability. You can learn more in the security advisory:

SA-CONTRIB-2014-077

Sorry for all the releases lately (this is the 3rd in three weeks)!

As you may know, we've been attempting to release a new version of Panopoly as soon as possible after a security release, so that you don't have to worry about security updates yourself - you can just update Panopoly!

But it means that sometimes you'll see a lot of Panopoly releases in quick succession. :-)

Beyond the TableField update, this also includes some test changes, some module updates and bug fixes. For more information, please see the full release notes:

Panopoly 1.8 released! (includes fixes for SA-CORE-003)

Hi Everyone!

Last week Wednesday when Drupal 7.29 was released to fix the security vulnerabilities described in SA-CORE-003, we attempted to release Panopoly 1.7, per our policy of making Panopoly releases as close as possible to Drupal security releases.

Unfortunately, due to a bug with the release packager on Drupal.org, that release never made it out the door. However, that kind of turned out to be a blessing in disguise because there was a critical regression in Drupal 7.29 that affected Panopoly!

So, now that the Drupal.org infrastructure team has come up with a work around for the packager issue and the Drupal core team has released 7.30 (which fixes the regression), we've just released the best version of Panopoly ever: Panopoly 1.8! :-)

Contrib Module Versions

We do monthly contrib module updates to our sites - some of which use Panopoly as a base distro. There are times when the latest release of a contrib module is not the same version included in the version of Panopoly we are using.

Each month we review the contrib module versions that have updates against the contrib module versions in Panopoly. The process can be a bit time consuming. I updated the Apps, Modules, Themes and Libraries in Panopoly documentation page to include the version numbers of the contrib modules in Panopoly 1.6.
