Changelog: VIP MU plugins [Staging]

The release window for VIP MU plugins is currently Tuesdays between 08:00 and 22:00 UTC (09:00 and 23:00 UTC when Daylight Saving Time is in effect in North America).  Changes made and deployed to the VIP MU plugins Staging branch are labeled [Status] Deployed to staging and visible in a filtered VIP MU plugins pull request view.

By default, the staging branch of VIP MU plugins is deployed to one non-production environment for all applications. This allows customers to test changes before they are released to production environments. This also provides time for the VIP Team to observe errors and test for bugs across a wider variety of applications.

Removed

  • Parse.ly plugin < 3.15

https://github.com/Automattic/vip-go-mu-plugins/pull/6064

Changed

  • WP-CLI wp vip alloptions find command improvements: add compressed size which is a closer representation of the size Memcached limits get triggered add; swap the custom wp option autoload set for WP-CLI Core’s wp option set-autoload; remove "Total size" line. This doesn’t take into account keys, and is as such not very useful, especially given the size of the full serialized value is also provided.

Added

Introduced the vip_files_acl_is_valid_path_for_site filter to extend the is_valid_path_for_site function. This new filter allows overriding the VIP File System’s validation process for multisite setups, which uses the /wp-content/mu-plugins/files/acl/endpoint-check-file-acl.php endpoint to check permissions for paths under /wp-content/uploads. It enables custom use cases, such as accessing directories outside the default site asset paths (but within the uploads folder) while adhering to other ACL rules.

Warning: Improper use of this filter could expose private data. Developers using it must ensure that the logic they implement enforces proper access control to prevent data leaks between subsites.
