This change improves A/B testing where the test group is larger than the

after the prior one, ensuring that the first *A* job is followed by the first

[10506](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10506))**

Contribution page, when using the "On behalf of" Organisation Profile,
fieldset title uses hardcoded "Organization Details"

Details".
- **[CRM-20690](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20690) No more than

Various conditions were conditional upon the locally-translated label of
PayPal rather than the fixed name.

deprecated function: Deprecated function for New Participant
([10392](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10392))**
This avoids notices when creating new participants from the backend.
- **[CRM-20562](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20562) Wrong
Activities created during participant registration via completetransaction.
([10362](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10362))**

Report showing same number for Total Opens and Unique Opens

- **[CRM-20789](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20789) Unsubscribing
from an AB test does not work in 4.7.21

"disabled" table rows appear greyed-out
([10481](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10481))**
CSS in the Seven theme conflicts with CiviCRM's CSS, preventing rows of
disabled records from having grey text.
- **Improve Views checkbox value handling
([448](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-drupal/pull/448) and
[449](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-drupal/pull/449))**
- **[CRM-19303](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-19303) CKEditor
configuration can't be edited on a Drupal multisite installation

##
Miscellany
- **[CRM-20744](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20744) Use
bower_compoents images for datatable rather than packages
([10520](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10520))**
- **[CRM-20561](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20561) Load

[186](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-packages/pull/186))**
- **[CRM-20687](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20687) Issue numbers
used as variables
([10473](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10473))**
- **(NFC) re add in animated-overlay.gif is no longer provided by jquery-ui

to retrieve all the batches
([10397](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10397))**
When retrieving the list of transaction batches, the BAO now uses the API
rather than a direct SQL query.
- **API allows creating multiple addresses same location type
([10510](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10510))**
This adds a test to confirm that two addresses with the same location type
*can* be added in APIv3, even though it is not the desired behavior in the
form layer or APIv4.
- **There's a better way to say it than "poor man's".
([10500](https://github.com/civicrm/civicrm-core/pull/10500))**
Various comments referring to a "poor man's" version of something have been
modified to be more specific. Many contain implicit references to the Drupal
module [poormanscron](https://www.drupal.org/project/poormanscron), which has
less to do with poverty or masculinity than checking periodically for the
duration since the previous run of a task.
- **[CRM-20651](https://issues.civicrm.org/jira/browse/CRM-20651) Change
