ElkArte 1.0.4 - Release announcement

Today, we are pleased to release ElkArte 1.0.4. This release fixes a number of bugs and issues that were found or reported since the release of 1.0.3. As this is a maintenance release, the majority of the updates are focused on bug fixes and increased stability. This is a recommended update for everyone running the 1.0.3 version.
 
Some notable updates in 1.0.4 include:
Basic automated images rotation detection and adjustment
 Removed the post preview in case of errors
Made "select" custom fields searchable
 Improved package manager servers handling
Fixed "Happy birthday" emails
 Fixed word censoring not working properly in a certain combination of settings
* several other minor fixes
 
This release follows our semantic version (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH), meaning that third-point (x.x.X) releases should contain backwards-compatible bug fixes and enhancements, so for the most part you will not find new features in this release. Major new features will be reserved for second point versions (x.X.x).

Refer to the release notes on the forum for a complete list of updates.

Patching procedure:
  • go to the page https://github.com/elkarte/Elkarte/releases/tag/v1.0.4
  • download the file ElkArte_1-0-4_patch.zip to your computer
  • go to your forum: Admin > Main > Package Manager > Upload Package
  • click the button to upload the package
  • locate and select the file you downloaded at point 2
  • click the "upload" button
  • follow the instructions on the screen.

For any question you may have, feel free to ask on the support forum.

Of course you are encouraged to update to this release since it contains a lot of fixes and improvements, thank you for your continued support!

Since the patch for 1.0.3 is already installed, it should be safe to delete it, then upload.
Since you do not plan on uninstalling it, that is.
Go into your cPanel (of FTP) and download the 1.0.3 patch, then delete it. That way, you have it on your PC, just in case need it.

Nice update.
There seem to be some speed gains in it.
It showed a test fail with my theme, but it appears to be running OK, not throwing any errors so far.

I don't remember any intended speed improvement, but everything is possible. :P

I hope this means you manually edited what was in error.
