@Howdy_McGee Tried __return_null as callback?

Howdy_McGee

00:41

@toscho Good idea, but looks like both __return_null and __return_false still show the metabox just without any of the options inside of it.

toscho

hmm, and just false?

Howdy_McGee

ooo false does the trick!

Good catch

toscho

I knew I have done this in the past. Just couldn't remember how.

Q: How would you have avoided the Miss Universe 2015 mistake?

In case you missed it, over a week ago Steve Harvey incorrectly announced Miss Colombia as winner of the Miss Universe 2015 pageant. He later apologized and corrected himself; Miss Philippines won. Harvey essentially blamed his cue card for being confusing, and I don't blame him for blaming said...

@Sisir what? that is a thing people discuss...

I mean could the card have been clearer, sure - can it be done right with the card as it is, definitely - end of story :D

Mark Kaplun

I actually thought the discussion there was interesting

ialocin

13:19

@MarkKaplun no contradiction on my part, in terms of all the details that are brought up, but on the other hand, it actually isn't a complicated problem to solve

I don't know why, but I kind of was surprised, but in the end, what do I know :D

@ialocin, I guess the hard part is to notice that there might be a problem :)

ialocin

@MarkKaplun you are probably right, although it isn't that hard

Without having a counter, what's another way to determine first and last post while in The Loop?

Howdy_McGee

19:31

I guess one way, which works for first and last is to do something like this outside the loop $last_post = $wpquery->posts[ $wpquery->post_count - 1 ]; and compare the $post-ID in the loop

bosco

@Howdy_McGee How about the $current_post WP_Query property? I.e. if( 0 === $query->current_post ) //First post and if( $query->post_count - 1 === $query->current_post ) //Last post

Howdy_McGee

Ooo I didn't know there was such a property, good idea!

toscho

and it belongs to the main site

Seems like WP 4.4.1 is starting to trickle out

yeah, they're discussing in the core slack for hours now

WordPress News: WordPress 4.4.1 Security and Maintenance Release

posted on January 06, 2016 by Aaron Jorbin

WordPress 4.4.1 is now available. This is a security release for all previous versions and we strongly encourage you to update your sites immediately. WordPress versions 4.4 and earlier are affected by a cross-site scripting vulnerability that could allow a site to be compromised. This was reported by Crtc4L. There were also several non-security bug fixes: Emoji […]

Anyone had a look on the scope of this?

Mark Kaplun

same question

toscho

maybe this? Removed SSL certificates causing errors in WP 4.4

Mark Kaplun

@Howdy_McGee, I don't remember but I am almost sure the loop has a counter, not sure if it is public

Howdy_McGee

Seemed to work, I was just bored and trying to find different ways to do first and last classes.

toscho

otherwise github.com/WordPress/WordPress/compare/4.4.1...master will show it once the tags are synced

kraftner

21:16

If I didn't miss anything it looks like missing escaping in theme error messages: github.com/WordPress/WordPress/commit/…

Mark Kaplun

yes, I think that is it. doesn't seem like something any of us here need to worry about

toscho

Hilarious. They stopped escaping translations and worry about this.

Mark Kaplun

agree, if you install bad theme then you are dead in any case

toscho

I'll wait for the inevitable 4.4.2

kraftner

So you agree that this seems to be it, right?

Mark Kaplun

21:24

seems to fit the description

kraftner

argh

M.Ibrahim

Hello everyone :)

kraftner

Now that they believe to have auto-update in place everywhere I think they use it too light heartedly. This is not worth a security release while some people might not be back to work after christmas/new year

toscho

the security issue is a minor one. there are other, much more important fixes

Mark Kaplun

yes

Howdy_McGee

21:27

I think the SSL fix is important IMO

Or is that the same security fix?

Mark Kaplun

the old slug is really a BBQ issue for people that depend on it

Howdy_McGee

BBQ issue? That sounds like the best kind of issue! What's a BBQ issue?

Mark Kaplun

the release is on fire? I guess matt came up with the term

BBQ is super hyper high priority

Howdy_McGee

lol that's pretty awesome

Mark Kaplun

the SSL seems to be an issue with outgoing http request so can be bad but it is more likely to cause failure then security problem

kraftner

21:31

To me this is worth a release, but not calling it a security release...

Howdy_McGee

Whenever I read it, my first thought was "Is every subversion a XSS fix?"

kraftner

@MarkKaplun Even the release post calls it a non-security bug fix

So far, so good.

I wonder why you can't close vote questions with open bounties on them, that seems silly
