Change log
This is a list of new fixes and other changes made to SOUP during its continued development.
SOUP version numbering generally follows the major.minor.patch scheme. Odd minor versions (1.1.x, 1.3.x, 1.5.x, etc.) are reserved for unstable development versions ("devel" branch on GitHub), while even ones denote stable releases ("master" branch on GitHub). The change log below thus only includes even version numbers, as changes between development versions are too numerous to list.
1.22 (15 Sep 2014)
This is just an incremental release to push out a few updates that missed v1.20 and were stuck in the devel branch. More active development may or may not resume later in the year. As always, contributions are welcome.
New fixes in 1.22.0:
- math16552: Using [tag:] markup in posts creates an ugly gap between lines (CSS, math.SE only)
Other changes:
- Improved and simplified the stats1987 fix by using
max-width
instead oftable-layout: fixed
. This fixes a minor layout issue with large vote counts and adds scroll bars to over-wide comments. - Added release dates to change log. Trying out short release notes as well.
- Added
@homepageURL
,@copyright
and@license
metadata lines.
1.20 (28 Jul 2014)
New fixes in 1.20.0:
- mse169225: Why does the bounty award button appear on deleted answers? (CSS)
- mse266852: Bar between “add a comment” and “show more comments” is inconsistent
Removed fixes:
- mse104184: Allow flagging a comment after upvoting it (fixed by SE)
Other changes:
- SOUP now hooks the WebSocket interface to detect chat events instead of polling for them.
- mse229363: Hot question titles from the Aviation and Puzzling sites are now eligible for MathJax parsing.
1.18 (5 Jul 2014)
New fixes in 1.18.0:
Other changes:
- The sidebar question score wrap fix (mse229751) is split into a global part and a site-specific part.
- The mobile link cursor fix (mse108046) is applied to all links without
name
attributes. - The HTTPS link rewrite fix (mse221304) is now applied also to chat and area51 links.
- Content filters now work properly on chat (using brute-force 0.5s interval polling, since there's no proper hook for chat updates).
SOUP.isChat()
andSOUP.isMeta()
are now set already during early setup.- Devel branch versions should now auto-update properly (and not just when a new master release is made).
- Update checking is optimized by duplicating the script metadata in
SOUP.meta.js
and pointing@updateURL
to it instead of the main script.

- The mse229759 fix has been made redundant, only a few hours after v1.16.0 was released.
