Please send Org bug reports to mailto:emacs-orgm...@gnu.org. * Version 9.8 (not released yet) ** Important announcements and breaking changes # Here, we list the *most important* changes and changes that _likely_ # require user action for most Org mode users. # Sorted from most important to least important. *** Org mode may throw an error when attempting to include remote unsafe resource noninteractively Previously, when ~org-resource-download-policy~ is ~ask~ (default), and Emacs is running in batch mode, Org mode simply skipped unsafe remote resources in the =#+include:='s. Now, an error is thrown to avoid seemingly ignored =#+include= statements when publishing via batch scripts. ** New features # We list the most important features, and the features that may # require user action to be used. *** =ol.el=: New =shortdoc= link type You can now create links to =shortdoc= documentation groups for Emacs Lisp functions (see =M-x shortdoc-display-group=). Requires Emacs 28 or newer. ** New and changed options # Chanes deadling with changing default values of customizations, # adding new customizations, or changing the interpretation of the # existing customizations. *** Allow headline/olp target in ~org-capture-templates~ to be a function/variable The variable ~org-capture-templates~ accepts a target specification as function or symbol for headline (~file+headline~) and olp (~file+olp~ and ~file+olp+datetree~). *** New =%\*N= placeholder in ~org-capture-templates~ The new placeholder is like =%\N=, gives access not only to the =%^{prompt}= values, but also to =%^{prompt}X= values. *** The default value of ~org-babel-latex-process-alist~ is no longer taken from ~org-preview-latex-process-alist~ The default value used to be pulled from =dvipng= process type from ~org-preview-latex-process-alist~. Now, it defaults to using =latexmk= (when available), or running =latex= multiple times, so that all the references are resolved in the generated png. *** New option ~org-cite-csl-bibtex-titles-to-sentence-case~ When this option is non-nil then title fields in bibtex bibliography entries are converted to sentence-case before being formatted according to a CSL style, except for entries with a =langid= field specifying a non-English language. When nil, this conversion is limited to entries having a =langid= field specifying a variant of English. The default value is ~t~ as the CSL standard assumes that English titles are specified in sentence-case but the bibtex bibliography format requires them to be written in title-case. ** New functions and changes in function arguments # This also includes changes in function behavior from Elisp perspective. ** Miscellaneous *** Trailing =-= is now allowed in plain links Previously, plain links like : https://domain/test- did not include the trailing =-= punctuation. Now, the =-= is allowed at the end, and is considered a part of the plain link. #+begin_quote These types of links will likely be encountered for sites where anchor targets are automatically generated from documentation headings which are questions. https://list.orgmode.org/orgmode/87sexh9ddv.fsf@ice9.digital/ #+end_quote *** =org-attach= now considers symlinked files when searching pre-existing attach dirs When Org buffer is opened from a symlink, Org mode looks into the original file directory when searching if an attach directory already exists. This way, attachments will remain accessible when opening symlinked Org file. When no attach dir exists, Org mode will still prefer creating it in the "default" directory - where the symlink is located. ... ...
