Dear all,
As with any major update there are small bugs to iron out. I am pleased to say that v1.8 has seemed to be working well for everyone, however I was made aware of two things. This means that you need to update to v1.8.1 as soon as possible.
-
There is a security flaw in v1.8 which could result in some of your MultiChat data being lost if you had a particularly malicious player. Considering I myself have studied cyber security in depth, the fact I made this error is something I am horrified about. It was a complete moment of stupidity. It will not necessarily affect your day to day use of the plugin, but PLEASE update as soon as possible to remove this vulnerability.
-
There is another small bug where if you regularly use nickname prefixes (for example the ~ character), it is being displayed in front of everyone’s name even if they don’t have a nickname. This has been fixed now.
Apologies for these issues, it was inevitable that there would be a v1.8.1 soon anyway, I am confident that 1.8.1 is now secure.
Thanks as always for using the plugin, and I hope to get working on 1.9 soon!
