12.0.0 updates
12.0.0 Release Candidate was published just after the development meeting.
During the meeting, we talked about BP Nouveau improvements #9030. @im4th explained why it took him longer than expected to improve the Template pack’s integration with Twenty Twenty-Four: he introduced a new priority navigation theme compat feature.
In short when the primary or secondary single item navigations contain too much nav items to be displayed on 1 line, an ellipsis button will show, when hovered, part of these vertically.
@emaralive reported an issue about Activity favorites management: the Activity IDs stored in a user meta are not necessarily removed when corresponding activities are deleted. As this issue is not a regression introduced by 12.0.0, we decided to work on it once this new major release will be published.
@im4th informed the team he committed the patch attached to #9027, the goal of it is to easily know what is the URL parser in use checking the BuddyPress panel of the WP Site Info debug screen. This addition should help us when replying to support requests.
We then decided to release 12.0.0-RC1 & @dcavins volunteered to review the announcement post about it. Although we thought we could leave the stable release date unchanged (initially scheduled to December 6), yesterday, we finally decided to postpone it to December 11.
Final 12.0.0 Schedule
- 12.0.0-Beta4 : November 8,
- 12.0.0-RC : November 27,
- 12.0.0 : December 11.
Next Dev-Chat
It will happen on December 11 at 21:00 UTC in #BuddyPress.
