What’s New in LiveWhale 2.17.1

This patch release includes bug fixes related to editing widget settings and a few behind-the-scenes performance improvements.

WYSIWYG editing

  • When pasting into a WYSIWYG field, <span style=”font-weight:400”> and list item style/aria-level attributes that get frequently copied from Google Docs are now stripped.

Bugs

  • Fixed an issue introduced in LiveWhale 2.15.0 that can affect cases where custom code is applying a custom format to a WYSIWYG image.
  • Fixed a bug that removed inline widget args when editing customizable args with the WYSIWYG widget edit dialog.
  • Fixed an issue where async getUrl requests could fail on some web servers.
  • Fixed missing support for “my_related_content” and “related_to” on the files widget.
  • Fixed an issue that could allow a long list of format variables to overspill the widget editor interface.
  • LiveWhale CMS Only
    • Fixed an issue where suggesting or copying a blurb or profile to another group did not automatically authorize them for that global blurb/profile type if they were not yet authorized.
    • Fixed a bug that broke the page editor when image captions in content layouts contained HTML.
    • Fixed an issue preventing custom fields on blog posts from restoring their content when editing.

Developer options

  • Remove share_by_default from sample config for images and files, which don’t currently support sharing by default.

Behind-the-scenes

  • Increased the minimum PHP version requirement of LiveWhale to 7.2.24.
  • Updated behavior to make /live/ URL error reporting match the same standard rules that all other LiveWhale URLs use.
  • Restructured certain MySQL queries for tags and categories to use subqueries instead of table joins, which has demonstrated a performance improvement in MySQL 8+.
