Following the miniBB 3.7 update, some of the related add-ons were updated at this stage:

— Bulleted List, Color Picker, Highlight Text, Spoiler, Strikethrough Text, Vimeo Videos, YouTube Videos — i.e. every add-on from the Extra BB-codes section of free downloads has been updated to have the new SVG icon, and the related button's code from bb_plugins.code has been changed.

— SVG icons, and their relative codes, were also updated in the Human Authorization (CAPTCHA) (v.1.5.4), Forums Checker (v.2.5.4), Photo Album (v.1.6.3) add-ons.

Polls & Surveys (v.1.5) add-on now has the SVG BB-code button, and minor updates for nofollow links.

— Besides of the SVG icons updates, the Private Messaging Service (v.2.8.1) now allows the Admin to send PM even if recipient's inbox is full.

Mobile Layout (v.2.4) has been updated to have new SVG icons under /img/mobi/ , and the related HTML changed in the language pack and templates. There are also some minor improvements of the interface.

File Bank (v.1.9) has been updated to have new SVG icons of its interface; in addon_filecheck.js and related templates, the script got the new funtion getUploadedImgSize — if a file with image extension is being uploaded, the script will try to display its width and height on the upload form.

Under /img/storage_icons/ there is now the new set of SVG icons for major file extensions; colors chosen by the first and following letters of colors responsively to the extension name. Default — White, «A» (.avi) — Azure, «B» (.bmp) — Bordeaux, «D» (.doc) — Daffodil, «E» (.exe) — Ebony, «G» (.gif) — Green, «H» (.htm, .html) — Hazelnut, «J» (.jpg, .jpeg) — Jasmine, «M»: (.mid) — Ming, (.mov) — Medium Orchid, (.mp3) — Magenta Process, (.mpg, .mp4) — Middle Purple, «P»: (.pdf) — Persian Orange, (.png) — Pink, «R» (.rar) — Red, «T» (.txt) — Tuscan Brown, «X» (.xls) — Xanthous, «Z» (.zip) — Zinc.

BUGFIXES:

  • Generated thumbnails and reduced fullsize-images should all have the proper '.jpg' extension, as it's the only format used for resizing.
  • In a case when the fullsize image is not kept, the file size should be determined and recorded for the saved thumbnail, not the original file.

— The Last Visit has the most advanced improvement in this update. It's about more precise showing up of the certain appearance period (Night, Morning, Noon, Evening). For your current version, it's important to update the related database field with the following command (it should be the format of datetime, not just date):

alter table minibbtable_users modify user_customlastvisit datetime;
Also, as provided in the package, add the necessary settings in bb_specials.php, update the language pack with new variables, and the codes in bb_plugins.php and bb_plugins2.php. Follow add-on's README.txt guide for more.

The update of this add-on has been sponsored by the Looti forum.

Pre-moderation (v.2.2.2) add-on follows the above-mentioned add-on structure, and now it has a change in minibbtable_modmembers table: `lastvisit` column should be of type 'datetime', not 'date'.

Update for existing databases:

alter table minibbtable_modmembers modify lastvisit datetime;
* addon_premod_panel.php has important update because of that, and it also has updated for SVG icons included.

You are welcome to test the updated add-ons on miniBB demo and here, on live miniBB forums (specifically for Captcha and File Bank). Upgrade carefully, making all backups. Use the Compiler at your convenience.

More SVG updates for other add-ons will follow this month.
