Way to go! I will not be able to update for another couple of weeks or so due to work load. I read the history.

One thing I found very interesting but did not fully understand is

Added: <txp:yield /> values are available in external forms too.

Can someone slightly expand on it?

You can now pass variables into external forms, such as .js files, and receive those values during parsing as long as you use the default attribute (which could be empty) in the yield tag to bring them in. It passes the variables as URL params.

Previously, this didn’t work and threw errors, so Oleg kindly fixed it for me so I could use this feature on a client’s music site.

Sounds very handy… I guess that it would work the same way with css?

That was already possible in 4.7.2, but you had to append URL parameters manually.

Nope, traditionally styles were not parsed and they stay so, to avoid surprises. But nothing stops you from creating CSS form type with text/css mediatype if you need to use txp tags in some stylesheet.

Is there anything in the 4.7.3 codebase that would cause difficulties accessing the Diagnostics panel (textpattern/index.php?event=diag)?

On 2 sites hosted on Dreamhost (PHP 7.1.22 / MySQL 5.6.34-log) the same happened: attempting to access the panel resulted in a 404 page. I used Safari / macOS10.14. After multiple force reloads (6 !) I finally could access the Diagnostics panel.

Note – in both cases I had accessed the Diagnostics panel before upgrading to TXP 4.7.3 with no issues

PS – smooth sailing otherwise, everything updated OK

Not that I intend to use it much, but in my Visitor logging panel, it’s set to display 12 per page, and it says I have 26 pages. If I click one of the other display counts (24, 48, 96), I get a blank screen.

In a different site, it says 7 pages of logs, but the same thing happens if I click one of the other display count options.

Frankly, I don’t know how I even have that many log entries since these site just went online.

Oh, both sites were set to log ‘all referrers’, though I’ll probably change that.

Hmmm. That’s all handled by JavaScript/Ajax now so the refresh happens inline. Have you force-refreshed your browser/cleared cache to ensure you have the latest textpattern.js file? Mind you, if you were running an outdated version of that file, the other panels would probably exhibit the same behaviour.

Does your browser console give any clues or error messages that might give us an indicator of what’s going on?
