[pmwiki-users] PmWiki 2.5.8 released

[Petko Yotov]

Hello. PmWiki version 2.5.8 was published today, and is available at:

   https://www.pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-2.5.8.tgz
   https://www.pmwiki.org/pub/pmwiki/pmwiki-2.5.8.zip
     svn://www.pmwiki.org/pmwiki/tags/latest

This version adds a new variable $EnableEscapedUrlEmbed. Between 2.2.123 
and 2.5.7, there was an unintentional bug (or feature if you used it) 
where linking to a picture with an [=escaped filename=] (because it 
contains spaces or special characters) behaved inconsistently from a 
picture without special characters; and a link to a picture without 
special characters would behave differently if it had [=escaped text=] 
or not.

See table at https://pmwiki.org/ReleaseNotes#v258

Both Attach: and URL links to images were affected.

Version 2.5.7 restores what is considered expected and consistent 
behavior. If your wiki has embedded pictures with spaces by escaping the 
full name, you can revert to the pre-2.5.7 behavior until you move the 
extension out of the escaped markup. Add this to config.php:

   $EnableEscapedUrlEmbed = 1;

Light and dark scheme stylesheets and pictures are now enabled or 
disabled much faster while the page is loading, to prevent unintentional 
flash of the wrong color theme.

This version also fixes a warning since 2.5.7 when 
$_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'] is undefined, and updates the documentation.

Thanks,
Petko
