Portal 5.0 is HereWhats a Rich Text element?The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editingA rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
Cantemo Portal 5.0 will offer greater control and peace of mind around media management. The road to Portal 5.0 has been paved with 500 upgrades from our devoted team. These upgrades include new features, simple improvements, and responses to the challenges facing our customers and partners.
This update brings:
A better item page
A powerful, new table view for searches
A more functional recycle bin
A totally new audit tool
And a whole lot more...
The New Item PagePortals item page has received a lot of improvement in this update.
Improved History Page: This new history page shows the entire history of an item from start to end. You can even filter the history to see things like who added the item, when metadata was updated, and more.
Improved relations page: You now have the ability to go to all related . With all related items in view, you can do batch metadata updates or any number of things.
Improved Access rights: Access rights are now easier to manage and understand with filters. You can filter for permission types, users, and groups. Its also more simple to add new rights as well.
Metadata link: We added a link to jump to the item metadata.
Made with React: This view is now more dynamic, responsive, and uses public REST APIs that are available for everyone.
So much time is spent in this view of Cantemo Portal. Every improvement, no matter how big or small, goes a long way in creating a better user experience.
A Dynamic, New Table ViewPortal 5 brings a new way to view your asset search results with the table view. You can customize this view with as many fields and columns as you want to see the data thats most important to you. This new view replaces the list view from previous versions of Portal.
Do More With the Recycle BinThe recycle bin now functions much like a search page with the ability to filter results. You can filter for file types and date ranges to quickly find items and restore them.
The Audit Tool Has Been OverhauledThe audit tool updates in Portal 5 are massive!
Audit reports are created and compiled in the background.
The new audit wizard makes creating new audits a simple task. You can schedule when to do an audit, and set time intervals.
Scheduled audits can be configured to show in your notifications and in an email that will bring you to the audit in Portal. From there, you can download it as a JSON CSV or XML file.
New Rules Engine NotificationsIf by chance the rules engine fails to run on an item, a notification will now be sent to the Portal admins.
Portal is More ResponsiveWhether you use Portal on a large monitor or in a small panel as you edit, your Portal workspace will look great. The item page, among other views, reflects this the most.
New Job PrioritiesJobs priorities can be configured based on the job type. An example of this would be to set a low priority to jobs that are creating thumbnails. Based on that job type, 10 or 10,000 thumbnail jobs would not interrupt other higher priority jobs.
New Archive Framework PluginPortal users can now use the new Vidispine Archive Framework plugin. With this, you can configure any storage like MatrixStore Object Storage, Azure Blob Storage, Google Cloud Storage, and Amazon Glacier as an archive.
Many New API EndpointsTo make greater use of your medias data, Portal also has 22 new API endpoints for retrieving and manipulating collections and items.
Portal Component UpgradesAlso, weve updated more of the important Portal components. We have:
Added support for Red Hat Linux 8, CentOS 8
Added support for Redis to replace memcached
Updated to Python 3.8
Removed support for Red Hat Linux 6, CentOS 6
Updated to Vidispine 5.5With this update, Cantemo Portal now has:
Support for new cloud storages such as Google Cloud and Azure buckets
New script engine for jobs
Upgraded Solar to 8.1
Updated Java to 11
External ActiveMQ possible through the installer
ActiveMQ 5.15
