Developers¶
Alterations made to the delete_comment_additional hook¶
Added a new parameter $comment_ids and moved the hook above the delete query.
Removed the comment_form_action hook¶
This hook has been removed from mod.comment.php.
Field Type code deprecation warning¶
We have noticed in a number of third party Field Types that developers are accessing the field_id via $this->settings[‘field_id’]. This is incorrect and is not a supported property of that array. We have included a hack for this point release to allow these Field Types to continue working, however this hack will be removed in ExpressionEngine 2.1.2.
Please update your code to use $this->field_id as documented as soon as possible so that sites using your Field Types do not break in future releases.
