We are pleased to announce the official release of Campsite 2.5 "Eli."
The release brings important enhancements for multilingual publications and faster-paced news services.

The major new features are:
Contributors can now file articles without needing to learn the site’s publication/issue/section hierarchy.
Articles can now be set up to include dropdown fields containing a list of topics.
Topics can now be translated and the Topics screen has undergone a serious usability redesign.
Articles can now be moved across sections (previously we had the ability to copy but not move).
The Home page has a new layout to accommodate more detailed information and an increasing number of views of the workflow. It now displays publication/issue/section for all articles
The subscription feature has been further refined to allow for subscriptions by language (e.g. access to the Sports section can be controlled or billed for separately for English and Spanish readers);
The template language now features a statement that automatically extracts the first paragraph of a story.
A Swedish localization of the admin interface has been added.
More permissions have been added for further fine-grained control of the interface. You can now specify whether the staff member has the ability to move articles, translate articles, attach images to articles, attach topics to articles, and change system preferences. The Xinha WYSIWYG editor is now fully customizable through the Campsite permissions screen.
In addition, there were many smaller improvements for ease of use as well as over 40 bug fixes. You can read the full changelog here.
