directus

Here are the highlights of the bugfixes and improvements we made since 6.4.0

IMPORTANT: Some interface names may need to be manually updated

• You may need to update existing id columns to use the new Primary Key interface if they aren't already.
• The status interface column name is based on the value in config.php (default: active). You'll need to update this from numeric to the new status interface.
• Some core interfaces have now been removed, others now have new names. Directus will still function properly, but some legacy interfaces may fallback to the default interface until you update them in your settings.

See the list below for interface name changes:

checkbox => toggle
countries => *removed*
jsoneditor => json
alias => *removed*
directus_file => *removed*
directus_file_title => *removed*
enum => dropdown_enum
instructions => section_break
multi_select => checkboxes
radiobuttons => radio_buttons
Salt => *removed*
select => dropdown
system => *removed*
template_chooser => *removed*
textinput => text_input
wysiwyg => wysiwyg_full

In this version we've redesigned the entire framework to be more intuitive and simple and the codebase has been almost completely refactored for better modularity and extensibility. We've laid the ground-work for implementing new features and simplified many aspects of the user interface. Significant changes have also been made to the Admin Settings – there are now more options and a cleaner layout.
