1.5.5 has been released!

You can downoad it here:

http://opencart.googlecode.com/files/op ... v1.5.5.zip


just done a quick release to so people are not going to complain about extensions not working

FIXED in 1.5.5.1
set the language class back tot he old style to avoid compatibility problems with extensions
add the load method for language back to the loader class
fixed an issue with deleting categories

http://opencart.googlecode.com/files/op ... .5.5.1.zip

ADDED in 1.5.5

Klarna Payment Gateway

Product Filters
Categories, Downloads now use auto-complete to select
Updated the upgrade system
Tried to add a system to allow the cart to be passed across multiple domains
Added a system to allow users to decide what mime type files can be uploaded
Altered the system to no longer use binary utf-8 and use general instead.

FIXED in 1.5.5

https://github.com/opencart/opencart/is ... ate=closed

Changed: $this->load->language is now $this->language->load
So Modules and other Add-ons compatible with 1.5.4.x and older will probably NOT WORK.
You need to adjust them to the new situation.

Bugs can be reported here:

any reason that the language system was changed without any mention? This change will break literally every extension. Not to mention that in addition you changed it so that the load no longer returns an array, so we can no longer use the array_merge to keep our controllers from having a ton of lines that do nothing more than push each individual language definition into the view.

**edit**
ok after looking back at it I suppose language->load has always been there it's just that most mod makers were using load->language since it was actually sensible and returned some data that we could push into the view array instead of having to have hundreds of lines individually putting every language define into the array, so there may be a few mods that don't break, but I would think that a change like this would warrant a mention for all the mod makers out there that were using the load->language method.

Is it any other changes than the list of added stuff?

How is it compatible with themes and extensions from 1.5.4.1?

I can tell you now MOST 1.5.4 extensions will not work. Not sure about themes.

Thanks for your hard work, Daniel

I do agree with Xsecrets, though. Removing the return array from the language loader is a step back to 1.4.x versions.

Well done Daniel.

Opencart is going from strength to strength.

You mean pre-1.4.8 versions :) This was the first thing i added when I took over 1.4.8 and 1.4.9 releases.. it was something I added waaay back in v0.7.8 and its one of the most important changes ever made. It also doesn't "go against" the any proper coding. It is a simple return!

Sorry but 1.5.5 is dead on arrival.
THIS MUST BE BROUGHT BACK!
I'll wait for 1.5.5.1 where this is fixed.

Not a chance. Can you at least explain why you removed it after you finally agreed to it in the last few versions?
You make money off of developers... you're number one priority should be to keep the developers selling. Forcing us to make tedious changes for no valid reason only slows down sales while we have to waste time backpedalling to fix all of our existing mods.

Plus the chance that you have to change them again in 1.5.6.

Great work on v1.5.5. Anyway, I see that Daniel had already updated it back. So that should be good enough ;)

Some of the modules from 1.5.4 does not show... when you install them in the admin, and push EDIT...

When you push edit, the screen is blank-white... Someone knows why? Thanks a lot.

Read above!
Many of the extension for older versions will not work, beacuse he change some files, but it will soon be changed back. I think we will see 1.5.5.1 verry soon.
