Version 2.6.1 of Semantic Forms has been released. This version consists mostly of bug fixes, although there are a lot of them. Changes and additions in this version are:

Semantic Mediawiki database rebuild complete. One missing entry. — [[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 17:52, 21 December 2020 (UTC)
  
- The "date" and "datetime" inputs have been changed significantly: they used to show the current month and year by default, but now they show all blank inputs. The advantage to this approach (besides the fact that dates entered are not always around the present date) is that dates can now be entered as just a year, or a combination of a month and year; before, if the day was not entered, the form just ignored the other values in the input.

Upgrading to 1.33.2 and SMW 3.1.0.
  
- The Dynatree Javascript library, now used for the "category" and "categories" input types, was fixed up - before, it gave a loading error

some of the time.

DB rebuild complete --[[User:Peter|Peter]] ([[User talk:Peter|talk]]) 06:56, 9 January 2020 (UTC)
  
- Handling was improved for the "section" tag - if the user enters a subsection within a "section" textarea, the form now handles it correctly when the page is re-edited. Thanks to Himeshi De Silva for the fix.

The database will be locked for brief periods. The upgrades require a full database rebuild and the html cache will have to repopulate. The DB rebuild will take 2-3 days and completion will be advised here. Editing and page creation will be OK during this process but is likely to be much slower. --[[User:Peter|Peter]] ([[User talk:Peter|talk]]) 11:16, 7 January 2020 (UTC) 
  
- Remote autocompletion was fixed for properties not of type "Page".

==July 2019==

A major update of the code software ([[MediaWiki]]), to v. 1.32.2<ref>[[Special:Version]]</ref> and v.3.0.2 of [[Semantic MediaWiki]].
  
- When the "minimum instances=" parameter is set for a template, the form now starts with that many instances by default, instead of the parameter just validating when the form is submitted.

Data rebuild completed. Templates updated to match. Upgrade complete. — [[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 06:19, 6 July 2019 (UTC)
  
- Preloading a form with another page's contents did not set the values of date or checkbox inputs - this is fixed now.

Software upgrade completed. Data is being rebuilt. Templates are being upgraded to match, some pages will have garbage text until this is completed. — [[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 16:25, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
  
- When only alternate forms, and not a default form, were set for a property, it caused strange behavior when a red link using that property

was clicked. This has been fixed. Thanks to Stephan Gambke for helping with this fix.

Mediawiki software upgrade. Editing will be disabled during part of the upgrade. There may also be brief periods when the site is not accessible --[[User:Peter|Peter]] ([[User talk:Peter|talk]]) 20:29, 2 July 2019 (UTC)
  
- Handling was fixed for templates whose names contain carets ("^").

- The Semantic Forms testing script, added in version 2.6, was fixed; thanks to Yussuf Khalil for the fix. (A Google Code-In student! Under the supervision of Himeshi De Silva.)

- SF's role in the Page Schemas extension was significantly improved. You can now generate templates that use #subobject, when the Semantic Internal Objects extension is not installed; and there were some bug fixes for template creation in general.

- In some cases, fields that were hidden due to the use of "show on select" were also getting their contents validated, which is never a good idea. This has (I believe) been fixed now.
