What's new
==========


Minor features
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 * Page slugs now allow unicode on Django >= 1.9 (Behzad Nategh)
 * Image upload form in image chooser now performs client side validation so that the selected file is not lost in the submission (Jack Paine)
 * oEmbed URL for audioBoom was updated (Janneke Janssen)
 * Remember tree location in page chooser when switching between Internal / External / Email link (Matt Westcott)
 * ``FieldRowPanel`` now creates equal-width columns automatically if ``col*`` classnames are not specified (Chris Rogers)
 * Form builder now validates against multiple fields with the same name (Richard McMillan)
 * The 'choices' field on the form builder no longer has a maximum length (Johannes Spielmann)


Bug fixes
~~~~~~~~~

 * Email templates and document uploader now support custom ``STATICFILES_STORAGE`` (Jonny Scholes)
 * Removed alignment options (deprecated in HTML and not rendered by Wagtail) from ``TableBlock`` context menu (Moritz Pfeiffer)
 * Fixed incorrect CSS path on ModelAdmin's "choose a parent page" view
 * Prevent empty redirect by overnormalisation


Upgrade considerations
======================

Form builder ``FormField`` models require a migration
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

The ``choices`` field on the ``wagtailforms.models.AbstractFormField`` model has been changed from a ``CharField`` to a ``TextField``, to allow it to be of unlimited length. If you are using the ``wagtailforms`` module in your project, you will need to run ``python manage.py makemigrations`` and ``python manage.py migrate`` after upgrading, in order to apply this change to your form page models.
