Version 7.2.2 is now available for your general usage. We have made one significant change that might affect you if you use a MySQL or MariaDB database.

Updated MariaDB Connector to v2.6.0

We have updated our MariaDB Connector from v2.0.3 to v2.6.0. This is to allow servers to use MySQL 8.0.3+ without having to make it act like a MySQL 5.x server. While we expect there to be no impact on the vast majority of servers and plugins (especially if you use our SQL Service), there has been a minor change that can break code that relies on the name of the driver.

Server Owners

We advise that if you use MySQL or MariaDB databases with your plugins that you throughly test the upgrade and that you backup beforehand. We do say this every time, but it is especially important this time.

Plugin Developers

If you rely on the name of the driver or database type, you will need to update your plugins to account for the changes noted in the links above.
