v2.4.6

  • Fix a strange corner case bug in Channel.userJoin
  • Fix a potential cause for the mysterious crash that doesn't log any errors

v2.4.5 I guess?

  • possible google drive embed example link <iframe src="https://docs.google.com/file/d/0BwMmuYY4RxzSMnQzdk4yeWN2V1U/preview"></iframe>
    • Has limitations
  • Channel passwords

v2.4.4

  • Change the way mute is handled
  • Change broadcastUserUpdate to only send specific changes

v2.4.3

  • new system of asynchronous event queueing
  • decouple media lookups and permissions from playlist.js
  • Fix /clean
  • Clientside throttle for comma separated queues
  • Combine multiple queuefails
  • Improve the way the link filter works
  • possibly include the link that failed in queueFail
  • supposedly there's something wrong with /clean

v2.4.1 / v2.4.2

  • Fix UTF-8 encoding in the database
  • Fix banning guest names
  • Don't query the database for unregistered channels
  • Don't query the database for livestreams

v2.4

  • Refactor API
    • Change endpoint locations to be more logical/clear (e.g. GET /api/users/:user/profile, POST /api/account/passwordchange)
    • Use POST for endpoints which require passwords (e.g. POST /api/login)
  • Refactor database to use the mysql module instead of mysql-libmysqlclient
    • mysql is written in JS, thus it doesn't require the libmysqlclient-dev system package
    • Refactored database to be asynchronous - should improve performance
    • All queries to the database are abstracted through database.js, which should make future changes and additions smoother (since the queries aren't spread out across files)
  • Instead of caching the entire channel library in RAM, media additions are queried to the channel library in the database - should reduce memory usage
  • Add defer attribute to the API <script> tags in channel.html - should improve load time
  • Revisit the ban system
    • Ensure that IP bans work as intended
    • Check global rank as well as channel rank to prevent IP banning site admins
  • Address some issues with IP masking for non-siteadmins

  • Add back quick promotion buttons to userlist
    • Decided to add a dropdown selector instead of the old single-step promote/demote buttons
  • Change 'Take Leader' to 'Remove Leader' and only show if they are a leader
    • Clarification: there is one button. If someone is a leader, it reads 'Remove Leader', otherwise it reads 'Give Leader'
  • Investigate using a lock icon button on the same row as voteskip
  • Add volume slider to Soundcloud

v2.3

  • Refactor media lookup
  • Add GDATA v3 API
    • Note: v3 of the YouTube API is only implemented for single video retrieval. For playlists and search, it doesn't return the video length, so I would have to make a second request, which makes it not really worth switching to
  • Support YouTube API v2 developer keys
    • Note: This developer key is applied when available to playlists, searches, and (when enable-ytv3 is set to false) individual videos

v2.2

  • Use paginator.js for ACP
  • Use paginator.js for channel ranks, library/search
  • Instead of SELECT * FROM actionlog, query the action names, and have the client request them specifically
  • Only record administrator logins for login-success
  • Linewrap index page because people use stupid URLs
