  1. Code Snippets 4.1.0Latest

    • Added
    • Universal search in the plugin header, for finding snippets and their code, settings, stats, the welcome screen, documentation and Community Cloud snippets from one field, with keyboard navigation and a full results page.
    • Labels in the version switcher marking the current, latest, beta and release candidate builds, and the WordPress version each was tested up to.
    • Changed
    • The version switch warning now notes that beta and release candidate builds are not recommended for production sites.
    • Resetting caches now fetches the list of available plugin versions again, and reports how many were found or why none could be listed.
    • Fixed
    • Fixed the snippets list showing an out-of-date state on sites with a page cache, as the plugin’s REST API responses were being cached.
    • Fixed the Search with AI option missing from the Community Cloud search method menu. (PRO)
    • Fixed the share with subsites setting not being applied when a network snippet was saved on multisite.
    • Fixed a PHP deprecation notice and a missing browser tab title on the Edit Snippet screen.
    • Fixed a long unbroken line of code widening the snippet editor page and pushing the sidebar out of view.
    • Fixed admin screens waiting on remote requests for as long as the site’s default timeout allows when the Code Snippets service or WordPress.org is slow or unreachable: these requests now give up after 5 seconds, or 3 seconds for the welcome content.
    • Fixed version switch messages being hidden by the admin notice filter, and showing markup from the response as HTML.
    • Fixed the version list refresh reporting success when the versions could not be fetched.
    • Fixed safe mode failing on sites running a plugin that builds URLs while WordPress is identifying the current user, and breaking REST API URLs. Safe mode is now carried on admin links only.
    • Fixed the snippet import routes allowing a subsite administrator on multisite to import network snippets without the network capability. Thanks to Artus KG for responsibly disclosing this issue.
    • Fixed the snippet source shortcodes revealing snippet code in posts written by users who cannot manage snippets. Thanks to Het Kalariya for responsibly disclosing this issue.
