“How to make a navigation autocomplete with django-autocomplete-light v3” seems like a top FAQ since v3 release, because v2 included an example which was not reported inside the documentation of v3.

While the example in v2 documentation is still valid, the autocomplete.js script was removed from django-autocomplete-light, and is now available in the jquery-autocomplete-light repository.

Happy hollidays from the YourLabs panarchy :)

Django 1.11 alpha is announced for January 16, review priority will be given to any ticket marked “ready for checkin” by January 9, Tim says, which means its still time to make a contribution to Django 1.11 !

The only “major feature” on the 1.11 roadmap is template-based widget re ndering which is (hopefully) in final reviews. There are still plenty of “patches needing review” if you want to help there.

My personnal advice ? Try to do even just a small contribution or try to help reviewing, it’s still time ;)

We have two major features:

• Advanced field forward options,
• List based autocompletion.

Complete changelog:

• #745: Add list autocomplete by @dmosberger, https://github.com/jpic and https://github.com/thecardcheat,
• #754: dal_queryset_sequence documentation update by @chubz
• #734: Move create_option functionality into it’s own method @andybak
• #741: Fix initial value not set when selected choices aren’t strings @thauk-copperleaf
• #733: Advanced forward features @gagarski
• #752: Add doc test to CI by @jpic
• #730: Resolve SystemCheckError fields.E304 @thecardcheat
• #721: Note about placement of DAL before grappelli by @chubz
• #748: Update docs example about loading jquery outside the admin @jpic

This release includes a bugfix for the new feature added in 0.7.0, occuring with non-ascii characters in selector-based tests with python 2.

Fix by @njoyard, test case by @jpic.

This new release enforces SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE, because it makes no sense to use django-session-security without it, by design.

However, a vulnerability caused by having SESSION_EXPIRE_AT_BROWSER_CLOSE disabled was fixed, thanks Clayton Delay for the report.
