Version 3 end of life
This version of Silverstripe CMS will not recieve any additional bug fixes or documentation updates. Go to documentation for the most recent stable version.

3.1.7-rc1

Upgrading

Authentication

3.1.7 introduces a re-authentication feature, which allows user working in the CMS to quickly re-enter their password and continue working should their session expire. This occurs through a popup dialog, which asks the user for their current password to continue working.

If using a custom Authenticator class to replace the default MemberAuthenticator, then by default this feature will be disabled. If multiple authenticators are used, only supported ones will be available within the CMS.

In order to create a CMS supported version the Authenticator::supports_cms and Authenticator::get_cms_login_form methods should be overridden. See MemberAuthenticator for an example implementation.

Check the documentation at the Authentication topic.

Default Admin

In this version the way that the default admin user is managed is slightly changed. Rather than defaulting to the first administrator user in the CMS, a user logging in as a default admin will always be assigned to a "Default Admin" user with admin privileges. In the past, this user would only be created if no other administrators existed.
