v4.7.8 release

v4.7.8 has six bug fixes, nine improvements, and three new features.

Significant new features

• The Shelf now includes only those content types that can be added to the current asset in the content edit form. For example, if a content edit form has a single field for a list of videos, the editor can configure The Shelf to include only videos.
• The Content Types widget has a new search control for listing editorial content types. Editors can use this listing to see the assets based on an editorial content type.
• Added support for Lit decorators in TypeScript.

Significant improvements

• Improved display of an image's Colors widget.
• The Java Server Page number.jsp was deleted following a previous migration to the NumberFormInput class.
• Deleted the deprecated Java Server Page metric.jsp.
• The Java Server Page region.jsp was migrated to the RegionFormInput class.
• The Java Server Page permissions.jsp was migrated to the PermissionsFormInput class.
• The Java Server Page login.jsp was migrated to the Login class.
• The Java Server Page reset-password.jsp was migrated to the ResetPasswordPage class.
• Deleted the deprecated Java Server Page sharePreview.jsp.
• Implemented Google Analytics 4 for reporting at the site, search, and asset levels.

Significant defects addressed

• Corrected an issue that added extraneous whitespace characters in templates defining a prefix with the tag HBSfield.
