Add-ons [AL] Core Package 1.8.8

• In this version, we removed the legacy class extension support option. The feature is needed only in our Filter add-ons and is moved to the Filter Framework.
• Upgrade to this version if any add-ons you use require a newer version.

• This version adds a help to sanitize item title before passing it to PayPal, as special characters in the item title may cause the payment to fail. The change is used in specific add-ons and does not automatically change the behavior of PayPal payment method.
• Upgrade to this version if any of the add-ons you are using requires a newer version.

The release fixes an issue on XenForo 2.2.13 that can cause PHP errors from different add-ons that use the class extension system.

Disabling the option "Legacy Class Extension Hack" in Admin -> Options -> [AL] Core section will fix the issue.

In case you have lost access to the admin panel, upload the files from the released package, and it will fix the error.

This version also adds ability to disable the option via config.php, where you can add:

Code:

define('AL_CORE_DISABLE_LEGACY_EXTENSION', true);

Please note, that the constant will work only when the files from this version are already uploaded to the server.

It is unlikely you need the option enabled unless you are using older versions of one of our Filter add-ons released before Aug 3, 2022. If that's not the case, make sure to disable the option now to avoid any breaking changes.

Thank you!
