- This update makes boards easier to use with a keyboard and screen reader, keeps card saves from changing unmodified fields, and fixes issues with attachments, mention emails and large boards. It also improves security.
- #### 🔒 Security
- Card notes no longer show images loaded from other sites. Such an image could report the IP address and browser of everyone who read the note to whoever added it.
- #### ✨ Improved
- Large boards render faster: cards that are scrolled out of view in a lane are drawn when they come into view.
- A board holding more cards than it can show now says how many of them it is showing, and sets that number by the server's available memory.
- A board whose lane field has no choices now guides users how to fix instead of showing an empty space.
- Non-editable fields are shown read-only in the card.
- Conditional logic in the board settings works better with a keyboard and screen reader.
- #### 🐛 Fixed
- Saving a card changed fields nobody edited:
- A title or description containing characters such as `&` or `'` was rewritten;
- Assignees were cleared on boards with assignees turned off;
- Tags were cleared on boards with Entry Tags turned off, or while the Entry Tags plugin was deactivated;
- A field holding `0` was shown as blank and saved blank;
- Editing a Label mapped to the same field as the lanes moved the card without the board's lane-change notifications.
- Saving only a card's assignees failed on PHP 8 and left an "unsaved changes" warning. On PHP 7 it did not send "Card Edited" notifications.
- The card editor:
- An optional drop down could not be set back to empty;
- A radio field showed no choice selected when its stored value was a number;
- The due date could not be set with the keyboard, and it was shown in month/day order even on sites that use day/month;
- Saving a note without changing its text showed an error;
- A file dropped on an existing card was uploaded only with the separate Upload Files button.
- Attachments:
- The user who uploaded attachemnts was shown as "User #" and a number instead of by name;
- Uploading a file larger than the server allows showed "No file uploaded." or another unclear message. Such a file is now refused as soon as it is picked, with the maximum upload size;
- Deleting an attachment required "Who Can Add Attachments", and without it the attachment stayed listed after its file was deleted;
- Deleting an attachment now also requires permission to view attachments, and a refused delete says which permission is missing.
- Mention emails:
- Turning off "Enable Mention Notifications" did not stop them;
- Boards created by an import or another plugin did not send them;
- A note mentioning several people sent each of them the email written for the first person, with that person's links. Each person now gets their own.
- Boards created by an import or MCP ignored the feed defaults until manually updated: nobody could be assigned, @mentions listed nobody, and only administrators had access.
- Assignee merge tags such as `{gravityboard_assignees:names}` showed names containing characters such as `&` incorrectly.
- Keyboard and screen reader use:
- Shortcuts such as "?" and "/" did not work until the board had been clicked;
- Arrow keys and J/K did not move between cards;
- The card menu ignored the arrow keys, Home and End, and closing it with Escape lost your place;
- "/" left focus on the filter panel's Close button, and F did not move focus into the fullscreen board;
- Enter or Space on a vote button opened the card instead of voting;
- Tags could not be added or removed with the keyboard;
- Space did not start renaming a lane;
- Lane titles, menu items, link buttons and the Tags field showed no focus outline;
- Screen readers heard "1 cards" and "1 Notes", heard nothing for a card's description icon, and could not tell which note an Edit or Delete button belonged to.
- Lanes and cards:
- Cards whose lane value matched no lane appeared in an unnamed lane whose actions did not work. They now appear in a lane named "Not set";
- A new lane given the name of a renamed lane shared its cards;
- A new card could take the same position as another card, and the two swapped places after a reload;
- The drop indicator could flicker while dragging a card over another lane.
- Copying the URL of a board filtered by "No assignees" or "No label" opened a different filter.
- A card's Activity list did not load its notes on sites using Plain permalinks in WordPress.
- The admin board screen told administrators they had no permission to view a board that was switched off.
- Conditional logic on product prices matched the wrong entries on sites whose currency uses a comma for decimals or puts the symbol first.
- Opening or closing a date picker in conditional logic scrolled the page.
