Summary of Changes
Interest Area Management
-
The interest subscription widget now lets users manage individual echo areas within an interest via a new Manage Areas dialog, replacing the previous unsubscribe-only flow.
Localization
-
Italian translation updated with new interest area management strings. Thanks to Freddy Krueger for providing the Italian translation.
Bug Fixes
-
`scripts/echomail_maintenance.php`: Fixed a PostgreSQL foreign key violation that caused the maintenance script to abort when deleting messages that other messages referenced via `reply_to_id`. The script now NULLs those references before deleting the parent messages.
Interest Area Management
The interests feature groups related echo areas under a topic label. Users subscribe to an interest to automatically follow its member areas. Before this release, the subscription widget offered two states: Subscribe (for interests not yet followed) and Subscribed (for interests already followed). Clicking the Subscribed button opened a dialog that only allowed unsubscribing from individual areas ? there was no way to add areas from within the interest widget.
Starting in 1.9.3, clicking the button on an already-subscribed interest opens a Manage Areas dialog. All echo areas belonging to the interest are listed in a table with checkboxes. Areas the user is currently subscribed to are pre-checked; areas the user is not subscribed to are unchecked. The user can check or uncheck any area and save the result.
-
If at least one area is checked, the save button reads Save N area(s) and updates the subscription set to match the selection.
-
If all areas are unchecked, the save button changes to Unsubscribe (shown in red) and saving removes the interest subscription entirely.
-
Selecting an area that was previously explicitly unsubscribed through the subscription manager page will re-activate that subscription ? the management dialog is treated as an explicit user choice and overrides earlier opt-outs for the selected areas.
No database migrations are required for this release. The change is limited to the interest picker JavaScript widget, a new API endpoint, and an update to InterestManager in src/InterestManager.php.
Localization
The Italian translation catalog (config/i18n/it/) has been updated with strings for the new interest area management feature. Thanks to Freddy Krueger for providing the Italian translation.
Bug Fixes
Echomail Maintenance Foreign Key Violation
scripts/echomail_maintenance.php would abort with a PostgreSQL foreign key violation (echomail_reply_to_id_fkey) when attempting to delete messages that other messages referenced as a reply parent via the reply_to_id column. The deletion failed because the referenced parent row could not be removed while child rows still pointed to it.
The script now NULLs out any reply_to_id references to the messages being deleted before issuing the DELETE. This severs the self-referential FK on thread replies without destroying threading information for messages that are not being deleted.
