Release Name: 0.5.3
Notes:
This release brings some usability and feature enhancements to webgen as well as several bug
fixes. Also note that this release requires facets version 2.4.3 instead of 2.4.1!
* Setting some configuration options (for example, the path patterns used by
Webgen::SourceHandler::Copy) was very complicated in previous releases. With the introduction of
configuration file helpers this gets much easier now. For example, adding some path patterns for
Webgen::SourceHandler::Copy can be done like this now:
patterns:
Copy:
add: [**/*.pdf, **/*.avi]
* A new source handler for automatic feed generation has been added. This is the first part of the
blogging support that will be introduced in the following versions of webgen.
* The styling of the menu tag has been modified: an additional CSS class specifying the current menu
level has been added and the surrounding `div` tag has been removed.
> **Attention**: This may break websites which relied on the surrounding `div` tag with the
> `webgen-menu` CSS class for styling.

* I have added [upgrading]({relocatable: ../documentation/upgrading.html}) information for upgrading
0.4.x websites to 0.5.x.
Changes:
* Major enhancements:
- Added a [feed source handler] for generating atom and/or RSS feeds.
- Added a [sitemap source handler] for generating XML sitemaps
- Ported the [sitemap tag] and feature-enhanced it
* Minor enhancements:
- Added configuration file helpers, see [configuration file] documentation.
- Updated [metainfo source handler] to be more efficient.
- Updated [breadcrumb trail tag] to allow the specification of a start and an end level and added
better node change checking.
- Added new meta information `kind` for specifying the kind of a node (used, for example, by the
new sitemap tag)
- Added new meta information `change_freq` and `priority` (used by the new sitemap source handler)
- Added new meta information `draft` which can be set on paths that should not create any nodes
- New level specific CSS class names for generated menus
- Removed unnecessary `div` tag surrounding generated menus
- Added upgrading information
* Bug fixes:
- Meta information `sort_info` was not correctly set which lead to sort errors when creating menus.
- Fixed bug with meta information change detection: `modified_at` was taken into account although
this changes on every content change.
- Fix some other bugs releated to the meta information `modified_at`.
- An API change in facets from version 2.4.1 to 2.4.3 prevented webgen from working, now facets
2.4.3 is needed for webgen.
- Fixed bug in template source handler: template chain resolution stopped at default.template in
sub directory and did not go further towards the root directory.
