Is cross-posting broken in 6.7.x?

1 May 31, 2016 10:37    

Hi all.

Just checking if "cross-posting" is broken in 6.7.x?

I have posts that I want to put in both the main collection (Extra), and a download collection (Main). But after upgrading to 6.7.x, this feature don't seem to work anymore? The blog post only appear in the main blog, but not in the extra blog?

I'm not sure if this is a bug in the 6.7.x, or a upgrade error somehow. Can somebody confirm if this is a bug, and if not, suggestions on how to fix this? At the moment I just change the default collection to aggregate, so it will show the contents of both, but I would like the previous cross-posting feature to work again as that gives me more flexibility.

Version: 6.7.3-stable released on 05/29/16
URL: http://www.snakeoil-os.net/

Thanks.

Yes, it's already enabled. These are my settings:

Above pic is the common settings, plus the categories (main + extra) of a post. This post only shows up in the main collection now (i.e. only shows up in "Download Snakeoil", and not both).. Toggling "featured post" on/off didn't do anything either.

Ok, there was a bug indeed. Will be fixed in next release.


If you want to patch your install, here is the bugfix: https://github.com/b2evolution/b2evolution/commit/ecd07a06872e4ebe61e5c4219badfee80f662064


Thank you. Patched and can confirm issue is resolved. :)

Found two other minor bugs in 6.7.3, when I preview a blog post (while editing)

the preview page now shows this at the top:

Notice: Undefined property: stdClass::$post_notifications_flags in /var/www/public_html/inc/items/model/_item.class.php on line 353

I used pagebreak in my blogs. As a logged in user, clicking on the page numbers sometimes brings me to the right page, often times it did not do anything (i.e. if I'm already at page 2, clicking any of the page numbers almost always take me back to page 2). This affects logged in users only, anonymous users don't have this problem as far as I can tell. (Update: Disabled both page and block cache and it always work now. This never happened before in 6.6.x. Can't really tell if this is a b2evolution issue or my web host)

Thanks for reporting. I confirm the preview bug, I just saw it too.

Also the other one sounds definitely related to block caching (as the block cache should include the page number as a cache key and currently doesn't.). Previous did never use the block cache for this.

We'll work on that asap.
