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.

Re: Feedback: Textpattern CMS 4.9.1 released

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

Re: Feedback: Textpattern CMS 4.9.1 released

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.

Re: Feedback: Textpattern CMS 4.9.1 released

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.

Are you sure? It doesn’t do anything spectacular except to restore the “Recent articles” block and the next/prev buttons, so it doesn’t look ‘new’. And it is only for 4.9+ because it’s not needed for earlier versions so should be up to date.

Re: Feedback: Textpattern CMS 4.9.1 released

One observation today, which I recognized by chance. Articles are saved on my server one hour in the future, so if I list articles with untouched time option, they appear only one hour later.

The relevant part of the configuration:

Textpattern version: 4.9.1 (b8abf064e7ac4529f7945c957f8bf517c4ef9f87464ad271)
Last update: 2026-04-07 10:55:25/2026-02-14 17:01:39
Multisite root path: __TXP-ROOT/sites/un
Textpattern path: __TXP-ROOT/textpattern
Article URL pattern: title_id
Production status: live
PHP version: 8.4.19
GD Graphics Library: 2.3.3; Supported formats: GIF, JPEG, PNG, WebP, AVIF.
Server time zone: Europe/Kyiv
Server local time: 2026-04-10 23:07:07
Daylight Saving Time enabled?: 1
Automatically adjust Daylight Saving Time setting?: 1
Time zone (GMT offset in seconds): Europe/Kyiv (7200)
MySQL: 11.8.6-MariaDB-deb12-log (mariadb.org binary distribution) 
Database server time: 2026-04-10 22:07:07
Database server time offset: 3599 s
Database server time zone: SYSTEM
Database session time zone: SYSTEM
Locale: de_DE.UTF-8
Site / Admin language: de / de
Web server: nginx/1.29.5
PHP server API: fpm-fcgi
PHP SSL version: OpenSSL 3.0.18 30 Sep 2025
RFC 2616 headers: 0
Server OS: Linux 4.19.0
Admin-side theme: hiveneutral 4.9.1

So everything on the server is Europe/Berlin, but Textpattern is running in Europe/Kyiv time, means plus one hour to Berlin. After the update from 4.8.8 to 4.9.1 AND switching to mariadb 11.8.6 from 11.4.10 new articles are saved Europe/Kyiv plus one hour. That means in the upper state, the article time would be 2026-04-11 00:07:07. There is no difference between php 8.2 and 8.4 or a date.timezone set or unset in php.ini.

My workaround for now is to set time="any" in relevant listings.

This would be worth testing…we’ve had a few of these off-by-one-hour reports, and so far they seem to be on MariaDB.
