  • New function Candidate::getSubjectForMostRecentVisit replaces Utility::getCohortIDUsingCandID, adding the ability to determine which cohort a candidate belongs to given their most recent visit.

  • The Data_entry_completion_status column of instrument tables has been migrated to its own column in the flag table, and renamed to Required_elements_completed. After script Set_Required_elements_completed_flag.php is run, projects will need to delete the Data_entry_completion_status column of instrument tables. This can be accomplished by running Remove_Data_entry_completion_status_instr_column.php, and then sourcing the patch generated by this script. (PR #6876)
  • If _setDataEntryCompletionStatus, _determineDataEntryCompletionStatus, and/or updateDataEntryCompletionStatus are called in any overrides, make sure to replace all instances with their newly named counterparts, _setRequiredElementsCompletedFlag, _determineRequiredElementsCompletedFlag, updateRequiredElementsCompletedFlag. (PR #6876)

  • Deletion of dateTimeFields and monthYearFields variables in instrument class. All references to these variables should be removed from project instruments. (PR #7183)

Make sure the visits displayed after these changes are what you expect. The visits can be removed from the config.xml file after the importer tool is run. (#7663 & #7729)
  • There is a new abstract getDataDictionary() function in the instrument class for the new data dictionary framework. This is already implemented for LINST instruments, and existing instruments using LorisForm can use the \LorisFormDictionaryImpl trait to extract it in the same way as lorisform_parser.php did for the old datadict module.
  • The name of a Standard Date field in a LINST instrument must now end with the string _date. Otherwise, a LORIS exception is thrown. There is no restriction on the naming format of a Basic Date or MonthYear field. (PR #6923)
  • Run tools/single_use/Remove_duplicate_examiners.php to remove duplicate examiners that may have been created before bugfix. Make sure to run this script before running the SQL/New_patches/2021-09-28-Unique_examiners.sql. (PR #7462)
  • Deletion of support for the oldest version of the API (v0.0.2) (PR #6944)
