44 Standalone Export Form
45 ([11254](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11254))**
47 Entities such as contacts, cases, and others can now be exported from a form

59 ([11235](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11235))**
61 The frontend user dashboard now has regions specified before and after each
62 section. Extensions can now easily instert markup in these regions.
64 - **[CRM-13123](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-13123) Handle
65 value-separated fields at the dao level
66 ([11394](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11394))**
68 There are various ways serialized data is stored as strings in the database,
69 but handling of this was generally ad-hoc. This change documents each field's
70 serialization type (e.g. delimited values, PHP serialization, or JSON) and
71 implements a common utility for serializing and unserializing values.
73 - **[CRM-21530](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21530) Call post hook
74 after activity is filed on case
75 ([11385](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11385))**
77 `hook_civicrm_post` is now invoked for a `CaseActivity` entity when an
78 activity is filed to a case. This allows extension developers to have certain
79 actions be triggered by the event.

89 for auto-complete fields in the batch update forms
90 ([11290](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11290))**
92 Previously, the batch update form would exclude autocomplete-select custom
93 fields. This adds support for them.

117 search when switching options in Quicksearch
118 ([10466](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10466))**
120 The quick search box in the menu bar supports a variety of options. When the
121 box has search text and a user clicks another option, the box immediately runs
122 a search based upon that new option.
124 - **[CRM-21204](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21204) Show Import
125 Progress Bar for Activity, Contribution and Membership imports
126 ([11007](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11007))**

138 from accidentally creating a single activity when they want multiple
139 activities ([11264](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11264))**
141 When creating an activity with multiple target contacts, you are now required
142 to choose whether to create a single activity with all of the targets together
143 or one activity with each of the targets by itself. Previously, the single
144 activity was default, and a checkbox allowed creating separate activities.
146 - **[CRM-21349](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21349) Increase
147 timeout of status message after batch merge.
148 ([11195](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11195))**

153 beside 'Search' button below Advance Search form
154 ([11260](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11260))**

163 When using the API Explorer, the "Sequential" checkbox is now unchecked for
164 actions other than `Get` and entirely hidden for `Getsingle`.
166 - **[CRM-21551](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21551) Add parameter
167 to support skipping processing greetings when calling api contact.create
168 ([11405](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11405))**

178 that was altered, or the contact making the change.
182 - **[CRM-21446](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21446) Allow case id
183 as well as hash in inbound email processing to autofile emails on cases
184 ([11320](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11320))**
186 Inbound emails can now specify a case ID and be accurately filed to the

190 Case' Activity Optional When Defining Case Types
191 ([11204](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11204))**
193 A case type can now be defined without an "Open Case" activity type.
197 - **[CRM-21448](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21448) Need a link
198 from contribution record when there is no cid in the url
199 ([11295](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11295))**

206 ([10901](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10901))**

209 Control by Financial Type
210 Reports](https://civicrm.org/extensions/access-control-by-financial-type-for-reports)
213 - **[CRM-21577](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21577) Add links to
214 payment blocks to allow payments
215 ([11432](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11432))**

238 ([11226](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11226))**
240 Email abuse reports from email providers are now recorded similarly to spam
241 report bounce messages, causing them to be handled as more severe bounces.
243 - **[CRM-21476](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21476) Rename
244 'Clicks' to 'Unique Clicks' in mailing summary report
245 ([11319](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11319))**
247 The "Clicks" item in the mailing summary report is now specified as "Unique
248 Clicks" to highlight the fact that it displays the number of *recipients* who
249 clicked items rather than the number of actual clicks.
251 - **[CRM-21567](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21567) Add email

262 CiviMail composition form.
264 - **[CRM-21279](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21279) Rebuild
265 recipient list and calculate count on demand, store result in $cacheFactory
266 ([11091](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11091))**
268 Automatic calculation of the number of recipients on a CiviMail mailing is now

314 [11312](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11312))**
316 CiviCRM can now inherit the CMS language from WordPress sites with the
317 Polylang plugin, working similarly to WPML and other CMSes.
319 ## <a name="bugs"></a>Bugs resolved
323 - **[CRM-21473](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21473) Adding new
324 permission for adding notes and fixing existing issues with notes permissions
325 ([11314](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11314))**
327 Users with the ability to view contacts were previously able to add notes by
328 using a specially-crafted URL to reach the New Note form even if they lacked
329 the ability to edit the contact. This change requires a new permission to add
330 notes, and it requires the permission to edit the contact in order to edit or
333 - **[CRM-14343](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-14343) Import Error
334 File Maxes out at 250
335 ([11233](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11233))**
337 This removes a limit that would only display the first 250 rows of errors from
340 - **[CRM-21229](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21229) Manage Group
341 page is slow if you have smart groups
342 ([11050](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11050)) (completes
345 Some adjustments were made to improve related tests and to prevent problems
346 over repeated test runs.
348 - **[CRM-21518](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21518) and
349 [CRM-21539](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21539) Add missing
350 structure divs in templates
351 ([11369](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11369) and
352 [11396](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11396))**
354 Many administrative forms had minor inconsistencies in their markup,
355 complicating the task of retheming. This adds missing `div` elements and
358 - **[CRM-21180](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21180) Inline changes
359 to custom fields aren't reflected in custom greetings
360 ([11364](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11364))**
362 This resolves a bug where greetings that use custom fields would not update to
363 reflect changes that are made through inline edits to those fields.
365 - **[CRM-21298](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21298) Don't offer to
366 fix indices until we can do it right
367 ([11250](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11250))**
369 A change in 2017 introduced a warning on the system status page if a site
370 lacks a database index that CiviCRM expects. The warning message would offer
371 to "update indices" in the database, resolving the problem. However, the
372 update would fail on some sites due to a database error.
374 This change merely suppresses the warning message while work is done to
375 improve the update process.
377 - **[CRM-21433](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21433) Optimize dupe
378 checking in Recent Items stack
379 ([11281](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11281))**
381 The Recent Items list now suppresses duplicate items according to their entity
382 type and ID. Previously, duplicates were checked using the URL, which may
383 place parameters in a different order each time.
385 - **[CRM-21409](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21409) Don't bypass
386 hooks when updating thankyou_sent/receipt_sent fields via PDF letter action

391 ([11245](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11245))**
393 This sets all ID fields on the temporary table for exports to have a length of
394 255, reducing the likelihood of values being to long when exported.
396 - **[CRM-21001](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21001) E-notice in
397 com_civicrm/civicrm/CRM/Core/BAO/SchemaHandler.php on line 730

400 - **[CRM-21412](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21412) Do not give
401 fatal error on report when no fields selected
402 ([11259](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11259))**
404 A report with no columns selected now gracefully shows no results.
406 - **[CRM-21552](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21552) Dedupe Rule :
407 get contact type name instead of label
408 ([11406](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11406))**
410 The form for editing dedupe rules would validate by contact type label
411 (potentially translated) rather than name.
413 - **[CRM-21534](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21534) Key UI
414 elements fail when fetching activity records from MariaDB

421 - **[CRM-21531](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21531) Multi-select
422 custom field searches can crash on MariaDB
423 ([11388](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11388))**
425 This resolves an inconsistency in how MySQL and MariaDB would apply RegEx for
426 searching multiple-value delimited custom fields.

457 on date fields in the api
458 ([11152](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11152))**
460 Date fields are now consistent with other fields in accepting the word `null`
461 to save a null value.

464 handling for Europe/London fails
465 ([11273](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11273))**
467 A "Timestamp Mismatch" system message would appear when the system's time zone
468 has an offset from UTC of zero. This is the case for a number of European and
469 African time zones at least part of the year.
