CMB2

Ændringslog

2.13.0

Enhancements

• Added a rest_read_capability box property (also accepted as a field parameter) which declares who may read a box, or a single field on it, through the CMB2 REST API. The values read as plain English: false means no one, true means everyone (logged-out visitors included), 'box-capability' means holders of the box’s own capability parameter, and any other capability string means holders of that capability, e.g. 'edit_posts'. It cascades field → box → default the same way show_in_rest does, and the existing cmb2_api_get_box_permissions_check/cmb2_api_get_field_permissions_check filters still run afterward and have the final say. See REST API Read Permissions (#1563).
• Added a site-wide cmb2_rest_enforce_options_page_read_permissions filter which aligns REST reads of options-page boxes with WordPress core’s settings/options convention, gating them behind the box capability rather than serving them publicly. It defaults to false, preserving CMB2’s current behavior, and is only consulted for boxes which have not declared a rest_read_capability. See REST API Read Permissions (#1563).
• Added a dismissible admin notice for sites which register a REST-readable options-page box and have neither declared a rest_read_capability on it nor enabled the filter above. It links the REST API Read Permissions guide so those sites can pick the setting they want ahead of a later default change (#1563).
• [Development] Added a SECURITY.md security policy and enabled GitHub private vulnerability reporting, giving researchers a private channel that does not depend on email delivery.

Bug Fixes

• Aligned the oEmbed AJAX handler’s permission checks with CMB2’s other write paths: the handler now requires the caller to hold rights over the object the embed result is cached against (edit_post, edit_user, edit_comment, the taxonomy’s edit_terms, or, for an options-page target, the capability of the box that declared that option key) instead of relying on the nonce alone, and sanitizes the requested object type. Props Mutantgun (#1563).
• Fixed CMB2_Base::maybe_hook_parameter() turning a caller’s default value into a declared box/field parameter. It passed the default through to prop(), which caches a truthy fallback on the object, so one request’s default persisted as a real parameter for every later call. Only a declared parameter is consulted now (#1563).
• Sanitized the field_id input (with an isset() guard) and escaped the rel attribute in the oEmbed AJAX handler, addressing a reflected XSS vector flagged by WordPress Plugin Check. Props @thisismyurl (#1559).
• Escaped the metabox ID output in the options-page form and the field ID output in the repeatable-field wrapper (id and data-selector attributes) with esc_attr(), resolving unescaped HTML attribute output flagged by WordPress Coding Standards. Props @thisismyurl (#1560).

• Update the sv_SE translation. Props @edvind (#370).
• QA/PHPCS cleanup. Props @tw2113 (#1179).

2.4.1

Bug Fixes

• Do not set repeated field values to string “false” when boolean false. Fixes #1138.

2.4.0

Enhancements

• Enable linking options pages via tabbed-navigation. Will output tabbed navigation for options-pages which share the same 'tab_group' CMB2 box property. This snippet demonstrates how to create a top-level menu options page with multiple submenu pages, each with the tabbed navigation. To specify a different tab title than the options-page title, set the 'tab_title' CMB2 box property. See #301, #627.
• Complete the zh-CN translation. Props @uicestone (#1089).
• Update the nl_NL translation. Props @tammohaannl (#1101).
• Better display for white over transparent images (e.g. logos) by using a checkered background for images. (#1103)
• Ability to disable the options autoload parameter via filter ("cmb2_should_autoload_{$options_key}") or via a box parameter for 'options-page' box registrations ('autoload' => false,). (#1093)

• 'textarea_code' field type now uses CodeMirror that is used by WordPress (#1096). A field can opt-out to return to the previous behavior by specifying an 'options' parameter:
  ‘options’ => array( ‘disable_codemirror’ => true )
  As with the other javascript-enabled fields, the code-editor defaults can be overridden via a data-codeeditor attribute. E.g:

  `php
  

  ‘attributes’ => array(
  ‘data-codeeditor’ => json_encode( array(
  ‘codemirror’ => array(
  ‘mode’ => ‘css’,
  ),
  ) ),
  ),
  `

• Improve/add comment info banners at top of CMB2 CSS files.
• Added resetBoxes/resetBox Javascript methods for resetting CMB2 box forms.
• Improved styles for fields in the new-term form.

Bug Fixes

• Fix the 'taxonomy_*' fields when used for term fields/meta. Save the value to term-meta.
• Clear the CMB2 fields when a term is added. Fixes #794.
• Repeated fields now use registered field defaults for values. Fixes #1137.
• Fixed the formatting for deprecated messages in the log.
• Prevent opening of media modal when clicking the file “Download” link. Fixes #1130.

• Starting with this release, we are fully switching to the more communicative and standard Semantic Versioning. (#1061).
