Possibly intl extension disabled?

Okay, yeah it’s not showing in phpinfo(). Even though the Configure strings show --enable-intl=shared it doesn’t show up as a subsection further down, like I’d expect. I’ll poke around in cpanel on this client’s host and if I don’t get any joy will contact the hoster.

Thank you.

Update: That was easy. It was unchecked in the PHP extensions manager in cpanel. Fixed. Thank you so much, Oleg.

two observations under the write tab.

1. when i have saved a new article, the “new” button/link no longer appears in the top right, it used to be there. i have to go to the menu and select write again. very annoying.

2. i can’t find the “recent articles” block anymore, is it no longer there? i really liked it, made life easier.

The “new article” button was sacrificed to avoid the save block getting overcrowded now that there are other preview buttons. Doing Content › Write is only one click more, but I agree, it takes a while to reprogram your muscle memory.

Similarly, the recent and next/prev were dropped from txp 4.9 but you can resurrect them with jcr_writenav_buttons. There’s also wet_quickopen which is arguably more useful as it provides a little search box in the recent articles list.
