VERSION 3.54 - OCTOBER 29, 2020 - (MEDIA LIBRARY BETA) (INLUDING INSTRUCTIONS TO FIX TIME STAMP ISSUE) - Jan 19th, 2021


How to fix time stamp issues:

According to Dave Edis, Senior Programmer at Interactive Tools, this fix will be included in the next release, however
if you want to patch this version, he offered the following suggestion:

Backup your /lib/database_functions.php file.

Then in /lib/database_functions.php, search for mysqli($mysqli)

After the code:

mysqli($mysqli); // save object on successful connection

add the following code:

// set connected flag
mysql_isConnected(true);

Your timestamps should now report correctly.

REMOVEDATE UPGRADE NOTES
Prior to this version, the default behavior for removeDate was to hide a post if
the field was blank. We've reversed this so that posts with a blank removeDate are hidden.
Before upgrading from older versions, verify that no sections are relying on the old behavior.

This removeDate explanation is a bit confusing and as soon as IT clarifies, I'll post it here.

What this means, is that previously if you had a removeDate field, and it was blank, then the post wouldn't show. Now,
the removeDate only functions if a date is entered, so if there's no date, it is assumed that the record has never
remove checked.
