Bugfixes
You can expect the following changes in 5.1.1. See the changelog for every commit.
- Improve FormHelper’s request method inference. The method option now takes precedence over the value of type option.
- Fixed regression in meta tag generation.
- Fix missing method errors in Console only applications.
- EventAwareApplicationInterface was added. This interface was is to solve the console compatibility issue.
- Event hooks are now called application first, plugins after. This aligns behavior with other hooks.
- I18n message translation now supports gettext compatible paths.
- PaginatorHelper will now reset the current page to 1 when changing the per page limit. This reduces the chances of end users getting 404 errors changing their per page limit.
- The new to*() type coercion functions are now available as a global functions for applications that prefer to use global functions.
- Removed inline javascript from disabled pagination buttons. This improves compatibility with strict CSP policies.
- Fixed a type error if Mailer::reset() was called without proper setup.
