4.2.0 ??
Hm, I could swear it was 2009 last time I checked.

I must have accidentally fast-forwarded, or is this the wet reality distortion field?

Anyway, I’m all for the getting drunk bit.

Sure. Linear version number graphs are for wimps. Either you name your releases after the last wild animal you remember seeing while your mind was slowly drifting away from the pre-liver-transplantation drugs, or change version numbering with every other release.

We’re using a third option.

Re: I smell a new release approaching!

nice! i’m glad things are finally getting over the crockery hump.

Developer: Core support for unlimited custom fields (thanks: Gerhard Lazu)

i assume that means being able to support gerhards plugin and not natively having unlimited custom fields built in?

getting low with merlot tonight.

They are natively built-in, but there’s no user interface – that’s the realm of plugins as most use cases include more than just increasing the number anyhow.

Do I understand you correctly that the unlimited fields feature is “hidden” in the admin and all we get in a standard install are the 10 usual fields.

And we would still need Gerhard’s plugin to go past the 10-limit?

Before Gerhard’s plugin, there was Gerhard’s hack!
