2.4.9 release logs (coming very soon)

Post by axew3 »

On 2.4.9

1) all the hooks (admin and front-end) flows has been fixed/optimized. All will be faster, and should never get errors of any kind.
2) the user's insertion query for phpBB, has been improved to provide only required fields, and not all the list of not useful and possibly leading to some incompatibility due to mysql insert error on some phpBB installations where maybe, not all user's db fields exists (hard but possible?)

2) all about profile fields updates has been fixed. A point about this: the possibility to leave user's update their email in both wp and phpBB, should only happen if: profile updates are done into default 'native' wp-admin profile pages. This because hooks fires and can checks the existence of duplicate email into phpBB, before the update happen.
BUT many plugins like memberpress, provides front-end account page, where the user can change email. These plugins only allows (for what i can see) to check for the email, only after they updated into wp (and so would be possible to check into phpBB also, but it is too late: you'll have two users with same email, and no way to know what of the two was the legit one).
Unique solution to this, is in this case, to allow email change for users, ONLY in one side.
Or for each plugin, can be checked $_POST vars, and run the check as it is done for wp default, into wp-w3all.php file
function w3all_user_profile_update_errors( $array )

3) page forum preloader change, and as you'll see will look easy, nice and configurable by anyone with easy. It come also with domain name auto setup and display ever, into any device, perfect (as on my tests).
It is also all very easy to be changed. All is into the same page-forum.php and are few lines.

4) page forum resolve also once forever the problem about udi1 in wp and uid2 in phpBB (no linked users). It never will fail again.

an user with javascript disabled on browser that will visit the wp page-forum, will get this instead (localhost here display, because i'm testing into localhost: mysite.com would display, if wp were installed somewhere at mysite.com:

of course, into page-forum you can remove the preloader and use your own preloader instead, may one you installed that provide preloader for wp pages. page-forum is in effect (do not forget) just a common wp page.

2.4.9 has been released!

== Changelog ==

Code: Select all

= 2.4.9 =
*Release Date - 10 Jan, 2022*

* Fix: remove 'all db fields' when phpBB user's insertion, reducing to the minimum insertion query (only phpBB 3.3>)
* Fix: hooks execution flow all around, removing and executing only when needed
* Update: page-forum.php to fix the easy preloader, adding the text above as default, that will display the domain name automatically. To update if you want, rebuild page-forum on plugin admin or substitute the one into your active template folder (page-forum(orWhatEverYouNamedIt).php, with the new page-forum.php you find into the plugin '/addons' folder, renaming it as needed
* Fix: definitively page-forum to resolve the loop problem when UID 2 login in phpBB and into page-forum get loop (because users uid1 in wp and uid2 in phpBB are not linked) 
* Fix: some admin configuration hint and order fields
* Minor fixes
