New Features
We have added the Featured Video Plus plugin to our WordPress sites. If you are using a theme which supports featured images for posts, you can enable this plugin to replace those featured images with videos.
The MIIS website homepage was updated to include new dynamic content from across the site. In addition to the MIIS Spotlight on the right, you can now page through an additional set of hand-picked stories on the left.
Additional messaging has been added when working with recycled items in Drupal. If an editor is on a page that has a link to an item in a recycle bin, a message will display above the content indicating that the file won’t be viewable by people who cannot edit it, and provides a link to the recycle bin so the editor can either permanently delete the file or restore the file.
Additionally, when trying to download a media item that has been recycled, an alert will display instead of the original item with the email address of the last editor to modify the item.

Fixes & Tweaks
- The old WordPress.com Stats plugin has been removed. You can still get site stats using Jetpack or Google Analytics.
- The Drupal Instagram content type stopped working because the IDs of the images were larger than the database expected. We have changed this to anticipate even larger photo ID numbers.
- A small fix to MiddSTART to account for the case when the column identifying the type of donor is empty, to ensure that they are given credit on the project page.
- All staff in the Library and in ITS should now be able to edit the Library & ITS Wiki. If you’re in one of those areas and can’t edit, please let us know.
- We have updated the code we use to create test WordPress sites on our development server to disable plugins like Jetpack and Subscribe2 so that you should no longer see Jetpack notices about your site URL changing or receive emails when posts are published on our development server.
