  • Better explanation of the preview mode
  • Following WordPress guidelines, you can now compress your site using the ‘ob_gzhandler’ handler or using the .htaccess method (if you’re on an Apache host).
  • Numerous small bugfixes

V4.3.8 – 19.10.2015 – Gallery By BestWebSoft

2.0.6.5 – WP Smush

https://wordpress.org/plugins/wp-smushit/changelog/

Version 3.6.9.1 – Business Directory Plugin

https://wordpress.org/plugins/business-directory-plugin/changelog/

  • Fixed critical problem with checkbox fields used with categories
  • Fixed conflicts with other Membership plugin (PHP warnings)
  • Fixed error in German translation

2.3 (October 2015) – Simple History

https://wordpress.org/plugins/simple-history/changelog/

  • Added: The title of the browser tab with Simple History open will now show the number of new and unread events available. Nice feature to have if you keep a tab with the Simple History log open but in the background: now you can see directly in the title if new events are available. Such small change. Very much nice.
  • Added: If the AJAX call to fetch the log failed, a message now appears telling the user that something went wrong. Also, the output from the server is displayed so they can get a hint of what’s going wrong. Hopefully this will reduce the number of support requests that is caused by other plugins.
  • Fixed: Edited posts/pages/custom post types does not get a linked title unless the user viewing the log has edit rights.
  • Fixed: Another try to fix the notice error here:https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simplehistoryphp-creates-debug-entries.
  • Updated: Danish translation updated.
  • Updated: POT file updated.
