Bet you didn’t expect to see us with another release so soon! Our team is committed to providing a quality product for our clients. This minor release addresses some issues that impacted clients that had third-party products and upgraded before those products had compatible versions. We felt we needed to improve our product to avoid any issues with third-party products that aren’t updated. This release addresses the aforementioned concern, as well as a few other issues.
Fixed Issues or Improvements Made:
- Fixed issue with user privacy for photo album not respecting member level. (Fixes #607)
- Fixed issue with user profile fields info not being searchable if added before admin made those fields searchable. (Fixes #592)
- Fixed issue with integer value “5” not getting saved in member level settings of plugins. (Fixes #341)
- Fixed issue with edit and delete options not working for Event and Group categories.
- Added APCu support for Self-Hosted 7 that was not working in 4.9.
- Fixed other issues in 4.9 with Self-Hosted 7 compatibility.
- Fixed CSS errors in Bamboo Theme.
- Fixed issue with uploaded videos not playing. (Fixes #700)
- Fixed spelling error on create poll page. (Fixes #684)
- Fixed issue with mobile profile options widget not working. (Fixes #678)
- Issue: Third-party products that were not updated caused SocialEngine default CSS not to load.
- Solution: We separated our core CSS from 3rd party add-ons so clients have the base theme loaded to get their site running off the bat.
