WordPress 2.9 – XML-RPC and AtomPub Changes

Just in time for Christmas WordPress 2.9 is out. Here’s what has changed in the XML-RPC and AtomPub APIs since 2.8.6:

XML-RPC

  • Expose user registration option via wp.getOptions/wp.setOptions ( ticket #10454 )
  • Fix bug in wp.getComment that reported spam comments with a status of hold ( ticket #10510 )
  • Adjust how the XML-RPC server is activated so that the functions can be reused in other areas ( ticket #10513 )
  • Fix bug in setting optional number of pages arguments for wp.getPages ( ticket #10659 )
  • Reduced memory usage when processing requests ( ticket #10698 )

AtomPub

  • Fix a conflict with plugins that redefine wp_set_current_user() ( ticket #10938 )

If you are using the WordPress XML-RPC/AtomPub APIs in your software or service, or are just interested in this part of WordPress, please join the WordPress XML-RPC email list. Code changes and patches can be submitted via tickets at http://core.trac.wordpress.org/.
