Included changes:
- Instead of weird looking yellow valid bar that is meant to highlight a fallback field value is now deprecated in favor of a much better integrated label next to the field title:
- Default configuration changes:
- The “enableFallback” parameter on the "website" is now set to “true” by default
- renderContentEditor pipeline changes for the grayed out label to work.
- Fixed a problem with fallback values picked up from SV when fallback item had no versions (thanks Steve)
- Misc code refactoring
- Sitecore package for 6.4 is now included. Thanks Nick!

Hey Alex,
I upgraded a sitecore instance with this new version. I however still see the yellow validation bar for fallback allongside the new format of fallback. How do I go about removing the old fallback yellow bar?
thanks,
Zac
Hey Zac,
Thanks for trying it out.
You can get rid of it by deleting the following item from the master database (remove all links connected to it as well):
sitecore\system\Settings\Validation Rules\Field Rules\Fallback Value
Alex
Thanks Alex. That did the trick!
Alex,
We are using Sitecore 6.5 and have previously installed language fallback. It is fabulous! Now, we would like to apply this update. Are there any issues installing the package (since it's specifically 6.4) on 6.5? What about the DB serialization items? Thanks for this module and your help,
Marcia
Hello Alex,
I have just installed the Fallback module on our Sitecore 6.5 envirnoment. After enabling the fallback on a template the Validator Bar for every field says '{*itemid*}[Item not found]' and when edditing an item based on this template I don't see the '[fallback value]' message next to an empty field.
Note: the fallback-mechanism itself does work.
Regards,
Jamie.
This module really looks great!
When do you think this will be available in versjon 6.5?
Hi Alex,
Link for above video is broken.
I have reviewed your great customization about 10 times. I would like to implement a part of it ++ not the whole thing as I would like to keep as much as possible a vanilla copy of sitecore 6.5 -- in other words to use customization as an add on without touching the baseline. How would you recommend? I would simply like to per language specify ONCE per language which other language (or none) should be the fallback,....
