Frontpage Slideshow v3.5.7 is now available for all active subscribers to download.
Here's a list of what has been added, improved or fixed:
- Added jQuery 1.11.1 and removed jQuery 1.5 and 1.6. Version 1.11.1 is loaded by default for new installations and updates in Joomla 1.5 and 2.5.
- Added local copies of jQuery and 6 CDNs to load jQuery from besides Google's CDN. This makes up a total of 8 sources for you to load jQuery from, so you can have more options depending on the expected country of origin for your visitors. The 6 CDNs added are: Microsoft, Yandex, jQuery.com, CloudFlare's cdnjs.com, jsDelivr & Qihoo's 360 CDN which is based in China. The last 2 are fully safe to operate with the "Great Firewall of China" for websites that expect visitors from China. Please note that this option applies only to Joomla 1.5 and 2.5 as Joomla 3.x already loads a copy of jQuery.
- Swapped the image resizing web service Sencha.io for Mobify.
- Improvements to the display of the statistics module: it will now only show published slides and there is also an option to enforce a word limit on the slide title so the graphs are easier to view on smaller screens.
- Fixed issue when linking to menu link of type alias in Joomla 2.5 or newer.
- Updated Verot's class.upload.php to fix PHP warnings under PHP 5.5.
- Fixed PHP errors caused by other extensions (e.g. the T3 Framework) when these override the core" JViewLegacy" PHP class.
- Improved backend search in Joomla 3.3.
