The number of times is now a constant that can be set in `civicrm.settings.php`. - **[CRM-21840](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21840) Show Tool Icon For Radio Button Groups ([11819](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11819))** A group of radio buttons will now display a wrench icon if the user has the permission to edit the options. This now matches the feature for select boxes. - **[CRM-20981](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20981) Allow custom base-pages with less `crmApp` boilerplate ([10783](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10783))** Extensions that use AngularJS can now define a base path more easily. - **[CRM-20624](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20624) Expose description field for option values in UI ([10403](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10403))** Custom field options have a `description` field (that has been in the database for a while); now it can be set from the user interface and viewed when managing option values. - **[CRM-21835](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21835) Detailed Logging - Use INNODB if Archive is not available ([11786](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11786))** The Archive storage engine is not always available in MariaDB, even though it is the default for log tables when detailed logging is enabled. Now, CiviCRM will fall back to InnoDB if Archive is not available. - **[CRM-21753](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21753) Support 'criteria' in url on batch merge form ([11666](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11666)) (completes prior work)** This improves handling of criteria set in the URL for batch merges. - **[CRM-20811](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20811) Schedule Reminders uses mixed terminology for Active state: Active? versus Send Email ([10602](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10602))** The option for whether a scheduled reminder is active is now displayed as a checkbox with "Scheduled Reminder Active" rather than "Send Email" or "Send email or SMS". - **CRM_Utils_Check - Soften messages for read-only extensionsDir ([11895](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11895))** When a site's extensions directory is not writable by the web server, the system check message now has a lower severity and explains the consequences rather than indicating that this is definitely a problem. - **Meld Address custom field display template with main custom field template ([11844](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11844))** The display for address custom fields now uses the main custom field template. - **[CRM-21784](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21784) View custom data for recurring contributions ([11697](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11697))** This resolves a problem where custom data could be set for recurring contributions but could not be viewed outside of the API. ### CiviContribute - **[CRM-20610](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20610) Replace payment details block with editable payment list on 'Edit Contribution' form ([10776](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10776))** The backend contribution edit form is now based on the same payment editing interface as events with multiple payments. - **Tweak layout on contribution view screen to make payments clearer ([11863](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11863))** When viewing a contribution on the back end, a table of payments now displays immediately below the total amount. ### CiviMail - **[CRM-20719](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20719) Show warning on system status page if reply_id for mailing is not set to any default. ([10496](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10496))** This warns users if no auto-reply message is selected as default, as this will prevent CiviMail messages from being submitted. ### Drupal Integration - **Add activity created_date, modified_date and original_id fields to views ([525](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-drupal/pull/525))** ## <a name="bugs"></a>Bugs resolved ### Core CiviCRM - **[dev/core#83](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/issues/83) Fix regression whereby relationship types option no longer in adv search ([12045](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/12045))** - **Flush versionCheck cache when upgrading ([12034](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/12034))** A recently-upgraded site will no longer potentially have a cached message indicating that an upgrade is needed. - **[dev/core#64](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/issues/64) - In custom searches, column headings are being ignored ([12005](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/12005))** This resolves a regression that displayed standard column headings on results of custom searches. - **Fix trigger generation for modified_date on custom data ([11984](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11984))** - **Phone: standardize appearance and translation of extension label ([11930](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11930))** - **[dev/core#16](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/issues/16) Select "Enable multiple bulk email address for a contact", "hold_date" can not be updated ([11807](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11807) and [11884](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11884))** - **Handle eq (equals) operator in the report url ([11885](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11885))** When setting report filters via the URL, the `eq` operator now works like the others. It didn't work in past versions. - **Fix report form isTableSelected to treat relative date filters as filters ([11882](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11882))** - **[CRM-21842](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21842) broken link ([11879](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11879))** Links to the "Installation and basic set-up" documentation page had errors. - **[dev/core#22](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/issues/22) Unable to delete Smart Group ([11826](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11826))** This resolves a fatal error that would appear when attempting to delete a broken smart group. - **Fix template structures ([11818](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11818), [11839](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11839), [11851](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11851), [11862](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11862), and [11869](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11869))** This standardizes a number of page templates that didn't match the typical structure. - **Fix ajax error on rendering multi custom data tab when field limit reached ([11856](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11856))** - **Escape custom group title. ([11854](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11854))** This fixes a bug causing the display of multi-entry custom data sets when the set's title has an apostrophe in it. - **[CRM-20790](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20790) Import Contacts, Current Employer (Employee of field) is not being imported at all ([11843](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11843)) (completes prior work)** Unit tests now ensure relationships are added on import. - **[dev/core#17](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/issues/17) Convert Campaign Interview Task to use Pseudoconstant and remove PHP notices ([11809](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11809))** This replaces use of the deprecated `CRM_Core_OptionGroup::getValue()` with `CRM_Core_PseudoConstant::getKey()` and fixes PHP notices. - **[CRM-21838](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21838) When CRM.alert falls back to standard JS alert it should strip html ([11797](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11797))** ### CiviContribute - **[CRM-21763](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21763) Cannot record payment for only cents owed ([11668](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11668))** This resolves a bug where the sum of payments would be fractions of a cent off from the total amount due. A new utility subtracts currency amounts using the correct number of decimals for that currency. - **[CRM-21791](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21791) Accounting batch closed by default when created in localized civicrm ([11878](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11878))** If an accounting batch is created in a site with a language other than US English, a bug caused the batch to start out closed. - **[dev/core#26](https://lab.civicrm.org/dev/core/issues/26) On behalf form fails to create new organisation ([11841](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/11841))** - **[CRM-21807](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-21807) Deleted contacts included by default in Membership and contribution detail report.
