Required changes as part of this update
As part of this update, we updated the Anchor Link module to its latest stable. Part of that update included the Drupal.org issue - unfortunately this module violates d.o guidelines and D8 guidelines — stop copy/pasting CKEditor plugin, roll our own
While this fix is correct, it also breaks the update process for Sector for this particular release. Adding the below code to the "Repositories" section of your composer.json will resolve this.
If you've made no changes to the repositories section of your composer.json, copying the version from Sector will also work.
"ckeditor-plugin/link": {
"type": "package",
"package": {
"name": "ckeditor-plugin/link",
"version": "4.14.0",
"type": "drupal-library",
"dist": {
"url": "https://download.ckeditor.com/link/releases/link_4.14.0.zip",
"type": "zip"
}
}
},
"ckeditor-plugin/fakeobjects": {
"type": "package",
"package": {
"name": "ckeditor-plugin/fakeobjects",
"version": "4.14.0",
"type": "drupal-library",
"dist": {
"url": "https://download.ckeditor.com/fakeobjects/releases/fakeobjects_4.14.0.zip",
"type": "zip"
}
}
After this, add the following lines to the top of the "require" section of your composer.json. If you get lost, please use the version from Sector as a guide.
"ckeditor-plugin/link": "4.14.0",
"ckeditor-plugin/fakeobjects": "4.14.0",
If it is not yet enabled, enable the Ckeditor Fakeobjects module under /admin/modules
