Aggiornamenti Febbraio 2014

Come ogni mese, ecco un resoconto degli aggiornamenti che sono stati mandati in produzione sul network nello scorso mese…

WordPress 3.8.1

Una release minore, WordPress 3.8.1 contiene i numerosi aggiustamenti che seguono le cosiddette release maggiori (lo scorso mese era infatti uscito WordPress 3.8).

Il bug (errore) più fastidioso corretto in questa ultima versione è quello che costringeva, in alcuni casi, a premere più volte un pulsante perché questo funzionasse.

Un altra correzione importante è stato l’aggiornamento del codice che si interfaccia con Twitter, e che permette l’inserimento su pagine e/o articoli di un flusso di tweet in maniera automatica.

Ci sono inoltre una serie di miglioramenti più tecnici, che puoi leggere qui (in inglese).

Gravity Forms

Il plugin per la gestione dei moduli Gravity Forms ha visto invece il passaggio di una release maggiore, dalla 1.7 alla 1.8.4.

Ora il plugin ha piena compatibilità con la funziona “Heart Beat” di WordPress, che permette di vedere se qualche altro utente sta modificando un modulo in modo da evitare che ci si intralci con i lavori (molto utile nelle occasioni in cui diverse persone lavorano sul sito).

E’ stato poi introdotto un “cestino” per i moduli in modo che sia possibile recuperarli anche dopo un (accidentale) eliminazione, nonché una nuova ricerca avanzata che permette di filtrare in vari modi i messaggi ricevuti tramite i form.

Infine, è stato (finalmente!) aggiunto un campo che permette l‘upload di più files contemporaneamente.
