Bug 3780: Video Embedding: YouTube vids w/ 'privacy-enhanced mode' enabled can't be embedded
Category: Misc UI/Frontend
Patch by:fu
Description: YouTube videos that had the "privacy-enhanced mode" enabled (were using youtube-nocookie.com) and had https:// in the address weren't able to be embedded in Dreamwidth posts. This has been fixed.
Bug 3765: Update inserted Google Analytics snippet to latest version
Category: Misc Backend
Patch by:fu
Description: Google Analytics modified their code snippet to be more flexible and render more quickly; this required some tweaks to make it work for Dreamwidth.
Bug 3246: DW::Pay::get_current_account_status doesn't cache results
Category: Payments
Patch by:kareila
Description: A given user's "paid account" status doesn't change very often relative to the number of times said user might try to do something on Dreamwidth that requires a paid account. Because of this, the results of this "checking for paid account status" are being saved ("cached"), and checked less frequently, to reduce server load.
