We now support XML handling with Article copy therefore we added a setting for changing the default storage provider. If default storage provider is set to CCA, you must be sure that content is CCA "compliant". This means, that before a you can activate and use the copy functionality, we need to verify your content with the Naviga backend team to make sure the article content is fully compliant with the CCA API and our new Naviga Doc format. In most cases, this is a straight forward process with no needed changes by you as a customer. In other cases this will require configuration by the backend team. We also know of some cases where there will be requirements to change how content is written, and for old content to be patched.

This is an issue we will be addressing, but for the time being we recommend not to remove the News Value.
