pH7 Social Dating Builder, v18.2 Released! 🚀

Today, I’m extremely happy to announce pH7Builder v18.2 as the latest stable release! 🎉

This update focuses on production reliability, payment/API compatibility, and safer defaults across core modules.

What’s New in v18.2

Security & Stability

  • Hardened CSRF protection consistency on sensitive actions.
  • Improved validation and error-handling paths to reduce blank pages/fatal edge cases.
  • Added safer guards around external API responses and file/network fallbacks.
  • Improved compatibility with stricter PHP runtime behavior and static analysis checks.

Payments & Third-Party Integrations

  • Updated Braintree frontend flow from legacy setup to modern Drop-in nonce flow.
  • Improved 2Checkout callback verification with broader signature compatibility (legacy + SHA variants).
  • Updated integration links/docs paths for current provider consoles.
  • Reduced fragile behaviors in external-service-dependent features.

Registration, Auth & User Flow

  • Fixed multiple edge cases in login/registration and maintenance-mode flows.
  • Improved consistency in form processing and error feedback.
  • Hardened token validation paths where state-changing actions occur.

Media, Upload & Content Handling

  • Improved video upload validation and command safety in processing paths.
  • Better handling for MIME/extension edge cases.
  • Reduced failure cases that could break user-facing media actions.

Fake Profile Generator Reliability

  • Fixed deterministic crash paths in fake profile generation.
  • Added fallback-safe handling for failed API/avatar responses.
  • Better parameter normalization before calling external APIs.

DevEx / Tooling / CI

  • Improved PHPUnit/PHPStan compatibility for modern PHP versions.
  • Stabilized CI suite expectations and reduced flaky checks.
  • Expanded targeted unit test coverage for critical integration paths.

Dependency & Ecosystem Updates

  • Updated and aligned multiple runtime/dev dependencies for modern PHP compatibility.
  • Payment-related integration usage updated to match current SDK/API expectations where low-risk and deterministic.

Upgrade Notes

  • Recommended minimum runtime remains aligned with current project constraints in composer.json.
  • If you use payment gateways, test one transaction in sandbox after upgrade:
    • Braintree
    • 2Checkout
    • Stripe (legacy flow remains supported in this release; full migration can be done separately)
