Optimizely - update 407

Fixed an issue where BlockInlineEdit did not call latestContentVersion store with a provider name. Provider name should be part of the request.

Changed the registration to register DefaultContentRepository as a Singelton. Then Forward registers both IContentRepository and ContentRepoisory separately to DefaultContentRepository.

Fixed a bug in the Validation job that was introduced in .NET 6 support where WebRequest was made obsolete and replaced with HttpRequest instead. When validating a relative external link, e.g. /a/working/relative/link, it threw a NullReferenceException.

Fixed an issue so that you can control the trailing slash on a URL from the event handler.

Currently, CMS pages with a simple URL have two page URLs: the full page URL and the simple URL. If simple URL format is preferred (RoutingOptions.PreferredUrlFormat = PreferredUrlFormat.Simple), then generated URLs will be in simple format. However, the full page URL is still accessible.

Ideally a request to the full page URL will result in a temporary redirect (HTTP 302 Found) to the simple URL, and this redirection behavior could be configurable.

Configuration

In Startup.cs

public void ConfigureServices(IServiceCollection services)
{
    // omitted for brevity

    services.Configure<RoutingOptions>(o => o.PreferredUrlFormatRedirection = HttpRedirect.Permanent);
}

There are three possible values for HttpRedirect:

• None
• Temporary
• Permanent

You also can set through appsettings.json.

Fixed an issue where parsing the InitialTime property to a TimeSpan did not assume UTC as timezone but instead converted it to UTC after parsing. 

Fixed an issue where ValidationService did not show the full path of the PropertyName in error messages for nested properties. (For example, it showed ButtonText when is should have showed Button.ButtonText.)

Fixed an issue where Clear Thumbnail and Automatic Emptying of Trash did not delete data from the trash.
