WP Mollom “Back to school” 0.6.0
On the 1st of september, kids go back to school here in Belgium. And so, with a week to go, I was able to get a new release out. I intended it to be a bugfix release with version number 0.5.3, but I got a bit carried away and some feature creep happened. So I decided to give it version number 0.6.0.
Here’s the changelog:
- fixed: html is preserved in a comment when the visitor is confronted with the captcha
- fixed: handling of session id’s in show_captcha() en check_captcha() follows the API flow better.
- fixed: broken bulk moderation of comments is now fixed
- fixed: the IP adress was incorrectly passed to the ‘mollom.checkCaptcha’ call
- fixed: the session_id is now passed correctly to _save_session() after the captcha is checked.
- improved: more verbose status messages report when using the Mollom Manage module
- improved: cleaned up some deprecated functions
- improved: handling of Mollom feedback in _mollom_send_feedback() function
- added: approve and unapprove options in the Mollom Manage module
- added: link to the originating post in the Mollom Manage module
- added: if a comment had to pass a CAPTCHA, it will be indicated in the Mollom Manage module
- added: plugin has it’s own HTTP USER AGENT string which will be send with XML RPC calls to the API
- added: detailed statistics. You can find these under Plugins > Mollom
My personal favourite are the new statistics. I like shiny bar graphs. Dries and Benjamin let me use the flash object to generate statistics based on the data of their Mollom services. But I decided to keep some statistics on the ‘client’ i.e. your site’s side.
