New features and improvements for the user interface and the events plugin, combined with a handful of minor fixes and improvements across the board.
Avatars in action titles
If a post is created on another user’s profile or inside a group, a small “recipient” avatar is now shown next to their name. A small icon is still present next to group names, but it can be easily hidden with CSS.
Social Login
WeChat was added as a new provider, but because app registration is a very tedious process we were not able to test it properly. So, WeChat integration is considered a BETA until we have enough proof it works fine.
The admin interface was improved as well – values that require copy-pasting values are now displayed as text inputs that are easier to select.
Events (Beta)
The User Limits plugin is now able to control who has the right to create / manage events and RSVP to them.
The RSVP filters in user profiles are now accessible to non-owners and the RSVP filters do not show if RSVP is disabled.
Other improvements
We fixed a reported concern where a link preview from a pinned post would sometimes duplicate itself under other posts. Gecko styles received minor improvements in RTL mode, and non-styled default buttons will now inherit Gecko styles. WordPress 5.8 mobile embeds now display properly in PeepSo streams. We also fixed a conflict with TranslatePress where their hooks would break our license calls.
