Week: 06
MapSomeone I know was watching Back to the Future. Asked them some trivia questions. I remember entirely too much about that movie.
Attending a lunchtime digital discussion on the #1 Train from the New York Transit Museum. Attendees from around the country.
For IWC Online today, I added the ability to read the WordPress REST API as if it were a Microsub feed. It may work well on sites that do not have a rich feed.
Attending Indiewebcamp Online from my hotel room.
Micropub for WordPress 2.1.0 Released
Micropub version 2.1.0 for WordPress was released. It contains no exciting new features as Micropub is fairly stable.
- Micropub now checks WordPress capabilities more effectively. It will now throw an error if the user tries to edit a post authored by another user if they do not have that permission, for example.
- Default Titles and captions weren’t being set for images when uploaded.
- Fix a variety of timezone related bugs
- Added support for the proposed draft scope. If the token has this scope and not the create scope, then it will only allow posts to be created as drafts.
- Return the created URL in the Micropub response to support an automation use case.
- Add filters to allow a custom post type or custom taxonomy to be set during creation.
- No longer support the ‘post’ scope as permission to do anything. It will map to a combination of create and update.
- Misc unit test tweaks for consistency.
