Changelog for TGM Plugin Activation library

2.4.2 (2015-04-27)

2.4.1 (2015-04-22)

  • Improve escaping for URLs and attributes.

2.4.0 (2014-03-17)

  • All textdomain strings now made to tgmpa and remove all notices dealing with textdomain and translation issues.
  • The _get_plugin_basename_from_slug method now checks for exact slug matches to prevent issues with plugins that start with the same slug.
  • Commenting style now adjusted so it is easier to comment large chunks of code if necessary.
  • Plugins from an external source now properly say Private Repository in the list table output.
  • add_submenu_page has been changed to add_theme_page for better theme check compatibility.
  • Removed the use for parent_menu_slug and parent_menu_url for $config options (see above).
  • Nag messages can now be forced on via a new dismissable config property. When set to false, nag cannot be dismissed.
  • New config dismiss_msg used in conjunction with dismissable. If dismissable is false, then if dismiss_msg is not empty, it will be output at the top of the nag message.
  • Better contextual message for activating plugins - changed to "Activate installed plugin(s)" to "Begin activating plugin(s)".
  • Added cache flushing on theme switch to prevent stale entries from remaining in the list table if coming back to a theme with TGMPA.
  • TGMPA is now a singleton to prevent extra settings overrides.
  • Fixed bug with duplicating plugins if multiple themes/plugins that used TGMPA were active at the same time.
  • Added contextual message updates depending on WordPress version.
  • Better nag message handling. If the nag has been dismissed, don't even attempt to build message (performance enhancement).
  • Ensure class can only be instantiated once (instantiation moved inside the class_exists check for TGMPA).
  • Change instances of admin_url to network_admin_url to add better support for MultiSite (falls back gracefully for non-MultiSite installs).
  • Updated much of the code to match WP Coding Standards (braces, yoda conditionals, etc.).
  • Myriads of other bug fixes and enhancements

2.3.6 (2012-04-23)

  • Fixed API error when clicking on the plugin install row action link for an externally hosted plugin

2.3.5 (2012-04-16)

  • Fixed nag message not working when nag_type string was not set (props @jeffsebring)

2.3.4 (2012-03-30)

  • Fixed undefined index notice when checking for required plugins (props @jeffsebring)
  • Fixed bug where, during a bulk install, if the plugin was defined in the source as pre-packaged but also existed in the repo, it would erroneously pull the plugin from the repo instead (props @wpsmith)
  • Added ability to set nag type for the admin notice via 'nag_type' string (props @wpsmith)

2.3.3 (2012-02-03)

  • Changed license to reflect GPL v2 or later (to be compatible with the WordPress repo)
