2.1.0 (2007-10-02)

SilverStripe 2.1.0 was released on '''2 October 2007''' and had the following changes:

Overview

Comment administration section, and comment moderation
Allow CMS users to limit view/edit access to a page
Show an rss link for page comments on each page

Upgrading

Too many redirects

A problem occurs of 'too many redirects' or the page just doesn't load (home page) because of these situations:

Access tab for home page has 'logged in users only', OR
NO radio buttons have been set. This happens when upgrading site from old DB.

It's caused by a redirect to Security/login on the home page controller, which is blocked off, so you can't actually login, so it infinitely loops a redirect. See http://open.silverstripe.com/ticket/1488
