v8.18.0

• New module for automatic verification rule checks for phenology of records by biogeographic region.
• Fixes action columns for the occurrences list page.
• Improves captions provided for some columns available for import using the v2 importer.
• Fixes v2 importer when importing a licence for a record - see BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1445.
• Fixes for PHP 8.2 (experimental).

v8.17.0

• Adds organism_key to the cache_taxa_taxon_lists and cache_taxon_searchterms tables to provide
  a more reliable option for filtering species lists when taxonomy is dynamic. See
  BiologicalRecordsCentre/NPMS#268.

v8.16.0

• Changed menu item "Admin -> Website agreements" to "Admin -> Website data sharing agreements".
• Changed "Agreements" tab title to "Data sharing" for the website details page.
• New database tables and APIs added to support custom verification rules (aka local rules). These
  allow verifiers to define their own verification check rules, e.g. to flag records outside a
  known grid square, or outside a particular time of year.
  See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1403.
• Some fixes relating to PHP 8.1.
• Notifications are no longer generated for training records.
  See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#108.
• A description is no longer required when editing a term in a termlist using the warehouse UI.
• API support added allowing a set of records to be moved between a publically shared website and a
  private website and vice versa, effectively allowing control of their publication status.
  See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1396.
• Updated categories for notifications, so that queries and redeterminations can be properly
  tracked. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1362.
• The verification API now supports applying a verification decision to all records within a parent
  sample of the same taxon in one step. See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1274.

v8.14.0

• Permissions changes relating to the ability to use the importer to import records into a
  different website to the one authorised. The other website must provide editing rights
  via a sharing agreement. Relates to BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1396.
• Add new endpoints to the data_utils service for bulk redetermination using the verification tools.
  See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#674.
• Improves search performance for taxon groups in the filter builder tool.

v8.13.0

• Improved support for PHP 8.1, though it is not yet fully tested.
• The way that taxon names are written in notifications has been improved. See
  BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1395.
• When a taxon is deleted, if there are existing occurrences then the user is able to nominate an
  alternative taxa which the occurrences will be mapped to.
• When notifications for trigger templates are sent as emails, the notification.email_sent field is
  set to 't'.
• Fixes the incorrect updating of verification metadata in occurrences. See
  #466.
• Support for warehouse configuration of the default user email notification settings for a website.
  See BiologicalRecordsCentre/iRecord#1247.
• Fixes setting the verifier field in the cache_occurrences_nonfunctional table when importing
  already imported occurrences. See #452.
• Improvements to Importer v2:
  • Skips empty rows
  • Provides better feedback in the UI if a template selected.
• When using website based authentication for Elasticsearch, verification mode only retrieves full
  precision occurrence data for reporting. For data downloads, the data are blurred if the record
  is sensitive.
• New fields for tracking the status of names provided by UKSI, for future improvements in the UKSI
  synchronisation process.
• Significant revision and improvements to the code for updating the UKSI species list data from
  UKSI using the UKSI_History table (as opposed to full synchronisation).
• Fixes a bug where certain characters in cache keys could not be saved to the cache due to invalid
  file names being generated.
• Changed detail_occurrences view to allow verifier information to be displayed on species grid.

v8.10.0

• Adds new fields for term code and description of terms in lookup lists.
• Implements changes required for PHP 8.1 but not yet fully tested.

v8.6.0

• Support for new output_formatting option in reports for details pages (occurrences, samples,
  locations) with auto-formatting of hyperlinks for text attribute data.
• Improvements to the REST API's auto-generated documentation.

v8.5.0

• Adds a new standard filter parameter for filtering occurrences by sample ID (smp_id).
• Adds reports required to support a new recording_system_links Drupal module.

v8.4.0

• Change to authorisation so that user ID in authorisation token takes precedence over user ID in
  request parameters.
• Escaping of email addresses fixed when checking for duplicates.
• Fixes purging of import files when scheduled tasks run from Cron with the working directory not
  set to web root.
• Support for configuration templates for the v2 importer.
