FlatPress 1.3: Should we release?

[Arvid]

Hello testers,

the development of FlatPress 1.3 has been going on for quite a while now. We have completed the Smarty update and the remaining work for PHP 8.1 compatibility, that took a lot of work and time. PhotoSwipe is on board (though it still has a few small hiccups).
There are also many other open bugs and requests, but they don't necessarily have anything to do with PHP 8.1.

I have created a milestone on GitHub that collects all the issues that still have to be dealt with in order to be able to release FlatPress 1.3 at all:

• https://github.com/flatpressblog/flatpress/milestone/3

(Have I forgotten any issues that still need to be put there?)


At the moment I don't have too much free time and can only manage to work in smaller steps. Nevertheless, at some point we have to release a new version that runs under PHP 8.1.

This breaks my heart a little: Should we release version 1.3 without Responsive Admin first, so as not to delay PHP 8.1 compatibility for so long? That would again postpone Franah's great work to a later version...

Please let me know what you think about this.

Thank you and all the best,
Arvid

Hello all,

Currently in the contact form the Accessible Antispam plugin is not working. So I would still add the issue 138 to the milestone.

Although as another "highlight" I would like to see Responsive Admin in 1.3 - active support for PHP 8.0 ends this month. The developer version already has a super progress. So I also vote for 1.3 with the current feature set.

From my side to all involved: You are doing a great job! I'm looking forward to working together in the future as well.

With best regards
Frank
