A new Heretto Portal version with some new functionality and a couple fixes.

Heretto Portal 26.06.12

• Added. Heretto Portal v6 now supports synchronized session mode for SSO-authenticated users, in which session length is tied to both identity provider token data and user activity. While a user is active, the portal periodically sends keep-alive signals and extends the session automatically. When the user stops interacting, the portal logs them out after a configurable inactivity period. The inactivity threshold, keep-alive frequency, and token refresh timing can all be configured. An independent session mode is also available, in which the session ends when the authentication cookie expires regardless of user activity. An optional endpoint can be enabled to expose identity provider token details to authenticated callers in synchronized session mode.

• Added. Heretto Portal v6 now supports a navigation menu setting that prevents the main navigation menu (on the left side) from expanding to show all available sections when a user is deep inside a nested sitesection. When enabled, as a user navigates into a section, the menu narrows to show only the current section's contents, hiding unrelated sections at every level above. This setting is disabled by default and can be enabled in config.json under the toc object by adding "hideSitesectionLevelsSiblings" : "true". Any sitesection that contains other sitesections as direct children must have outputclass="view-tiles" set; without it, users who navigate into one of its nested sitesections will not be able to reach any of the other nested sitesections from the menu.

• Added. Portal v6 now supports a separate dark mode logo in the portal footer. Previously, only a single logo could be configured for the footer, which meant portals with dark mode enabled could not show a logo optimized for dark backgrounds. A dark mode footer logo can now be enabled in config.json under the footer object with the logoDarkModeSrc property.

• Fixed. We resolved a Heretto Portal v6 issue where clicking the expand button in the main navigation menu (on the left side) did not fully expand all nested navigation levels on the first click. Multiple clicks were required to progressively reveal deeper levels. The expand button now opens all levels in a single click.

• Fixed. We resolved a Heretto Portal v6 issue in the Stoplight integration where the Try It panel in API documentation pages sent all available response media types combined in the Accept header, rather than only the value selected from the Responses section. The panel now sends a single Accept header value matching the selected media type. Additionally, if an API spec explicitly defines Accept, Content-Type, or Authorization as header parameters, those definitions are now shown in the Headers section for reference but are not presented as selectable options in the Try It panel.

A new CCMS version with a couple end-user updates and lots of behind-the-scenes progress on the next-generation infrastructure.

Heretto CCMS 26.06.05

• Enhanced. We improved system stability related to branch naming. Previously, deleting a branch and creating a new branch with the same name could cause the branch to stop working correctly. This resulted in significant delays when performing branch operations such as replacing content. Now, once a branch is deleted, its name can be used to create a new branch.

• Fixed. We resolved an issue where switching branches could cause the Content Library to flicker, toggling back and forth between branches. Now, the selected branch loads correctly every time.

• This release also includes continued progress on our next-generation infrastructure, a new find and replace capability, and Insights, a new reporting tool for content, reuse, and localization.

A new Deploy API version with further improvements to deployment stability.

Heretto Deploy API 26.06.03

• Fixed. We resolved an issue where a manual deployment could fail for very large content sets. Publishing now processes large content sets more efficiently, and manual deployments complete successfully regardless of how much content they contain.
