inVerse Plugin Changelog
5.0.5 Release 1 -- November 27, 2019
- #21: upgrade to converse.js 5.0.5, which includes these changes:
- Prevent editing of sent file uploads.
- #1089: When filtering the roster for `online` users, show all non-offline users.
- #1733: New message notifications for a minimized chat stack on top of each other.
- #1757: Chats are hidden behind the controlbox on mobile.
- #1760: Private messages no longer received after websocket reconnect.
5.0.4 Release 1 -- October 8, 2019
- #19: upgrade to converse.js 5.0.4, which includes these changes:
For Converse 5.0.4:
- New config option allow_message_corrections which, if set to last, limits editing of sent messages to the last message sent.
- Bugfix: Don't treat every duplicate message ID as a message correction; since some clients don't use globally unique ID's this causes false positives.
- Bugfix: process stanzas from mam one-by-one in order to correctly process message receipts
- #1712 TypeError: plugin._features is not a function
- #1714 Don't notify the user in case we're receiving a message delivery receipt only
- #1739 New config option assets_path which lets you set the path from which "chunks" are loaded.
For Converse 5.0.3:
- Emit chatBoxFocused and chatBoxBlurred events for emoji picker input
- SECURITY FIX: Reject unencapsulated forwarded messages, since we don't support XEP-0297 on its own
For Converse 5.0.2:
- po translations files are now loaded via Webpack. As a result the locales_url config option is now removed given that the path to the locale JSON files is now determined by the webpack config and can't be changed at runtime.
- The JSON representing emojis is now fetched asynchronously as a separate file converse.emojis.js.
- Webpack is now configured with a publicPath set to /dist/. This is necessary so that chunks (such as the emojis and locales JSON files) can be fetched asynchronously. This means that all your assets need to be served at /dist. If you need to set a different path, you'll need to set publicPath in webpack.config.js to your preferred path and then rebuild all assets (e.g. make dist).
- Use listenTo to avoid memory leaks when views get removed.
- SECURITY FIX: Ignore MAM chat messages not sent from yourself
- #1692 Bugfix: TypeError: oldest_message is undefined
- #1704 SECURITY FIX: Impersonation by misusage of groupchat carbons
- #1705 Bugfix: this.roomspanel is undefined after hibernating
5.0.1 Release 1 -- August 27, 2019
- #17: upgrade to converse.js 5.0.1, which includes these changes:
For Converse 5.0.1:
- Add a new GUI for moderator actions. You can trigger it by entering /modtools in a MUC.
- Reconnect if the server doesn't respond to a ping within 10 seconds.
- Don't query for MAM MUC messages before the cached messages have been restored (another cause of duplicate messages).
- Show an error message and option to retry when fetching of the MAM archive times out
