Changed

• The bootstrap script now assumes that the vendor/ folder is 3 levels up from the bootstrap/ directory by default (e.g. vendor/craftcms/cms/bootstrap/). If that is not the case (most likely because Craft had been symlinked into place), the CRAFT_VENDOR_PATH PHP constant can be used to correct that.
• The default port DB config value is now either 3306 (if MySQL) or 5432 (if PostgreSQL).
• The default tablePrefix DB config value is now empty.
• Renamed the defaultFilePermissions config setting to defaultFileMode, and it is now null by default.
• Renamed the defaultFolderPermissions config setting to defaultDirMode.
• Renamed the useWriteFileLock config setting to useFileLocks.
• Renamed the backupDbOnUpdate config setting to backupOnUpdate. Note that performance should no longer be a major factor when setting this to false, since the backup is no longer generated by PHP.
• Renamed the restoreDbOnUpdateFailure config setting to restoreOnUpdateFailure.
• File-based data caching now respects the defaultDirMode config setting.
• Redactor config files must now be valid JSON.
• When a category is deleted, its nested categories are no longer deleted with it.
• Craft Personal and Client editions are now allowed to have custom Volume types (e.g. Amazon S3).
• Renamed the “Get Help” widget to “Craft Support”.
• When editing a field whose type class cannot be found, Craft will now select Plain Text as a fallback and display a validation error on the Field Type setting.
• When editing a volume whose type class cannot be found, Craft will now select Local as a fallback and display a validation error on the Volume Type setting.
• When editing email settings and the previously-selected transport type class cannot be found, Craft will now select PHP Mail as a fallback and display a validation error on the Transport Type setting.
• The Feed widget is now limited to show 5 articles by default.
• Element queries’ status params must now always be set to valid statuses, or the query won’t return any results.
• Craft now relies on command line tools to create database backups (mysqldump and pg_dump).
• Test emails now mask the values for any Mailer transport type settings that include “key” or “password” in their setting name.
• The Control Panel page header is now fixed when scrolling down.
• Translatable fields are no longer marked as translatable when editing an element type that isn’t localizable (e.g. user accounts).
• Custom email messages are now stored on o per-language basis rather than per-site basis.
• Element indexes now remember which sources were expanded across multiple requests.
• Element indexes now remember if a nested source was selected across multiple requests.
• Plugin schema versions now default to '1.0.0', and plugins absolutely must increment their schema version if they want any pending migrations to be noticed.
• Resource requests no longer serve files within Craft’s or plugins’ resources/ folders.
• Renamed the {% registercss %} Twig tag to {% css %}.
• Renamed the {% registerjs %} Twig tag to {% js %}.
• craft\base\Plugin no longer automatically registers field types in the plugin’s fields/ subfolder.
• craft\base\Plugin no longer automatically registers widget types in the plugin’s widgets/ subfolder.
• craft\base\Plugin no longer automatically registers volume types in the plugin’s volumes/ subfolder.
• craft\elements\User now supports a password validation scenario, which only validates the $newPassword property.
• craft\elements\User now supports a registration validation scenario, which only validates the $username, $email, and $newPassword properties.
• It is no longer possible to change a user’s locked/suspended/pending/archived status when saving the User element normally.
• craft\elements\db\MatrixBlockQuery::owner() and ownerSiteId() now set the $siteId property when appropriate.
• The source keys that are passed into element methods’ $source arguments now reflect the full path to the source, if it is a nested source (e.g. folder:1/folder:2).
• The Craft.publishableSections Javascript array now includes info about each section’s entry types.
• craft\db\Connection::backup() now throws an exception if something goes wrong, rather than returning true or false. If no exception is thrown, it worked.

3.0.0-alpha.2681 - 2015-07-22

Added

• Ported all improvements and bug fixes from the latest Craft 2.4 builds.
• Added the enableCsrfCookie config setting, which determines whether CSRF tokens should be saved in cookies. Defaults to true. CSRF tokens will be stored in the PHP session if set to false.
• The Content model has been removed. Elements now have craft\behaviors\ContentBehaviors directly. Because speed!
• Added craft\base\ElementTrait::$contentId for storing the content row’s ID.
• Added craft\base\ElementTrait::$title for storing the element’s title, replacing craft\base\ElementInterface::getTitle().
• Added craft\base\ElementInterface::getFieldValues(), replacing getContent().
• Added craft\base\ElementInterface::setFieldValues(), replacing setContent().
• Added craft\base\ElementInterface::setFieldValuesFromPost(), replacing setContentFromPost().

• Added craft\base\ElementInterface::setFieldValue().
• All $value arguments on Field methods are now set to the prepared field value, with the sole exception of prepareValue().
• Added craft\base\FieldInterface::prepareValueForDb(), giving fields direct control over how their values should be saved to the database, without affecting the value stored on the element. (This replaces the protected prepareValueBeforeSave() method.)

Changed

• Element queries are no longer limited to 100 results by default.

• craft\base\FieldInterface::validateValue() no longer needs to return true if the value passed validation.
• craft\dates\DateTimeHelper::toDateTime()’s $timezone argument has been replaced with $assumeSystemTimeZone. If set to true and if $value doesn’t have an explicit time zone, the method will use the system’s time zone. Otherwise UTC will be used. (Defaults to false.)
• craft\dates\DateTimeHelper::toDateTime() now checks for a timezone key when $value is in the date/time-picker array format.
• craft\dates\DateTimeHelper::toDateTime() now returns false instead of null when an array without 'date' or 'time' keys is passed in.
• craft\dates\DateTime::createFromFormat() no longer sets the $timezone argument if left null, matching the base DateTime class’s behavior.
• Date/time-pickers in the CP now explicitly declare that they are using the system time zone in their post data.
• Nested database transactions will now set savepoints within the master transaction, as MySQL doesn’t support nested transactions.
• PluginClassName::getInstance() will now return the singular instance of the plugin class.

Removed

• Removed craft\dates\DateTime::format(), so it no longer has a $timezone argument and automatically sets the time zone on the DateTime object.

Fixed

• Fixed many, many bugs.

Added

• The codebase now follows the PSR-2 coding style.
• Added support for config/app.php, which can return an array that will be merged with Craft’s core application config array.

• The registercss, registerhirescss, and registerjs tags can now be used as tag pairs.
• The registerassetbundle, registerjs, registerjsfile, and registerjsresource tags now support an at param for specifying the location on the page their HTML tags should be placed. (Possible values are at head, at beginBody, and at endBody.)
• The registerjs tag now supports an on param for specifying when the JavaScript code should be executed. (Possible values are on ready and on load.) (The at and on parameters are mutually exclusive.)

• The t filter now always defaults to translating the given string using the 'site' category unless it is otherwise specified (e.g. myString|t('pluginhandle')).
• @craft/plugins/pluginhandle aliases are now registered before Craft attempts to load a plugin’s primary class, making it easier for plugins to use custom class names.
• craft\base\Model::toArray() now converts DateTime attributes to ISO-8601 strings.
• Renamed craft\helpers\AssetHelper::cleanAssetName() to prepareAssetName().
