Hot on the heels of v4.1.2, we’re shipping another patch release to address an issue with our browserslist config, fix some CSS bugs, make JavaScript plugins UMD ready, and improve form control rendering. Up next will be v4.2, our second minor release where we add some new features. But first, here are the highlights for v4.1.3. Pay attention to the change to  .form-control s which adds a new fixed  height . Fixed:  Moved the browserslist config from our  package.json  to a separate file to avoid unintended inherited browser settings across npm projects. Fixed:  Removed the  :not(:root)  selector from our  svg  Reboot styles, resolving an issue that caused all inline SVGs ignore  vertical-align  styles via single class due to higher specificity. Fixed:  Buttons in custom file inputs are once again clickable when focused. Improved:  Bootstrap’s plugins can now be imported separately in any contexts because they...

We’ve had an exciting week in Laravel-land, with the launch of Laravel Nova on Wednesday! Tuesday’s release of Laravel 5.6.34 released quietly before Nova, bringing a few changes and a URL validation compatibility fix for PHP 7.3. First up, the whereRowValues changes to properly wrap columns: $builder = DB::table('table')->whereRowValues(['column1', 'column2'], '=', ['foo', 'bar']); dd($builder->toSql()); // expected: select * from "table" where ("column1", "column2") = (?, ?) // actual: select * from "table" where (column1, column2) = (?, ?) Next, the default mail template’s copyright phrase (i.e., “All rights reserved.”) is localizable. Here’s the implementation: @lang('All rights reserved.') The last change was updating the behavior of the EventFake to dispatch non-faked events. The previous functionality was not to execute any event listeners. Now, al...

The Apache Drill community is very happy to announce the release of Apache Drill 1.14.0. Apache Drill is an Apache open-source SQL query engine for big data exploration. Drill is designed from the ground up to support high-performance analysis on the semi-structured and rapidly evolving data coming from modern Big Data applications, while still providing the familiarity and ecosystem of ANSI SQL, the industry-standard query language. Drill provides plug-and-play integration with existing Apache Hive and Apache HBase deployments. The release (including its ASC, SHA512, and KEYS files) is available for download at:https://drill.apache.org/download/ Please check out the release notes:https://drill.apache.org/docs/apache-drill-1-14-0-release-notes/ Source: http://mail-archives.us.apache.org/mod_mbox/www-announce/201808.mbox/%3c747dc6d1-d7fa-ffec-be27-26af427178e9@apache.org%3e

We encountered an issue in the release for jQuery 3.3.0, so we’ve immediately released another tag. The code itself is identical, but our release dependencies (only used during release) were added to the dependencies of the jQuery package itself due to the new behavior of npm in version 5+. jQuery 3.3.1 is now recommended if installing from npm or GitHub. If using jQuery on any CDN, the built file only differs in the version number. We apologize for any inconvenience and have updated our release script to account for this issue. Please see the jQuery 3.3.0 blog post for all relevant code changes in this release. Download You can get the files from the jQuery CDN, or link to them directly: https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.js https://code.jquery.com/jquery-3.3.1.min.js You can also get this release from npm: npm install jquery@3.3.1 Slim build Sometimes you don’t need ajax, or you prefer to use one of the many standalone libraries that focus on ajax requests. A...

Quite a while back, Mike Taylor pointed out that the jQuery CDN has a minified copy of jQuery 1.9.1 with an incorrect map file reference. Basically, it refers to the map for jQuery 1.11.1, and that’s just wrong. If you are trying to debug a site that uses the minified jQuery 1.9.1 file, dev tools will get very confused and make a hard job even harder. You might think that we could just edit the https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.js file to point to the correct map file, which does exist as https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.9.1.min.map . There are at least two problems with doing that. The first is that the file is heavily cached across the internet, since it’s been assumed for years that it will never change once the release occurs. Even if we edited the file, both the JavaScript and map file might never actually update at the point where they’re being used. A second problem is even more serious. We’ve been advocating that developers use the script’s integrity attr...

This year at F8, we announced a new way to separate your personal Facebook profile from your apps. This was in response to feedback from the developer community, asking for a way to manage apps without using a personal Facebook account (or creating a fake account, which violates our terms). Now you can manage app roles in Business Manager via business accounts or emails, as shown in the screenshot below, instead of a personal Facebook account. Using Business Manager for these roles and permissions ensures app-related notifications appear in Business Manager and are emailed to a business email address, rather than appearing in a business admin's personal Facebook account. What's the benefit to developers? Business accounts make it easier to manage accounts and notifications in Business Manager when people join or leave your company, need to give access to an admin account to a partner, or want to separate personal and business-related notifications on Faceboo...
