Changelog

Version 3.2.1

Security Fixes

  • Added check if defined 'IN_GS' to all php files. This prevents files being loaded directly, rather they need to be called from within GS.

Code Changes:

  • Updated MagpieRSS from 0.7a to 0.72
  • MagpieRSS will now use the GS cache instead of trying to create its own. This would fail because of permissions in the plugin dir.

  • Added Italian (it_IT) language file, thanks to Nicola Laviola (nikyni)

Back End (Admin) UI Improvements:

  • WARN, ERROR, INFO, OK messages will now display properly using the default GS message system.

Version 3.0 (Where I took over)

Front End UI Improvements:

  • When show_blog_archives() is called and the archive contains no posts, a message is displayed saying "Nothing in the Archives!"

Back End (Admin) UI Improvements:

  • The blog now has its on tab in the Admin area, which also includes its own sidebar links for each area of configuration.
  • Each admin page now has it's own title and description at the top of the page and will also show the version of the plugin you are running.

Bug Fixes (Front and Back End):

  • Clicking on Cancel in the post editor will now take you back to the Posts Management page. Previously it would take you to a different plugin, or throw an error if that plugin wasn''t installed.
  • Fixed Read More links on post excerpts. Previously the link was empty.
  • Fixed default values not showing in custom fields when creating or editing a post.
  • Removed
      tags from Archive functions to bring it in line with the rest of the plugin and the standard list format used in GetSimple. You now need to provide your own
        tags and apply attributes as needed.
      • Fixed improperly closed tags on Help admin page.
      • Fixed error "Trying to get property of non-object in frontEndFunctions.php on line 671".
