Serendipity 1.1.1 released

Post by garvinhicking »

After the well-received Serendipity 1.1 release, we put our ears to
the community and searched for any bugs left. Luckily, those were very
few (like the IIS server cookie bug) - we didn't at first believe it,
so we let some time go by to be absolutely sure there were no other
things to fix before issuing a maintenance release.

And here it is now: Serendipity 1.1.1 is a bugfix-only release to fix
these reported issues:

* Windows IIS server cookie/session authentication problem when not
running via HTTPS
* Change execution order of trackbacks to properly send them when a
failure occurs
* Display proper plugin permissionship restrictions when the admin
user is not part of the group that is restricted
* Fixed a bug that some plugins were not able to properly execute
in the entry detail view

This is not a security-related upgrade. You only need to apply it if
you think you are affected by any of the bugs listed.

Meanwhile, we continue to work on Serendipity 1.2 for feature
improvements. Together with helpful users of the forum we are
currently working on improving the authentication/plugin API sequence
to better support future plugins like OpenID. Any help is appreciated,
have a look at the forum thread [1]. Also we are working on
improving the Spartacus API, PDO::PostgreSQL support has been added,
spamblock plugin improvements and some tweaks to the permalink system.

You can download the new version (or a recent snapshot of Serendipity
1.2) as always on our Download page [2]. Detailed upgrade steps are
explained in our FAQ [3], but it's as simply as: Download, extract,
go to the Admin panel. :-)

Have fun!
