Important
If you encounter "Miranda was unable to open <profile_name>, it's in an unknown format" error after update, please follow this instruction.

Core and libraries

• updated BASS, libcurl, libmdbx, SQLite, and tinyxml2 libraries.
• mdbx_chk: useful utility to do database check.
• newly added sub-contact wasn't hidden.

Protocols

• Discord
  • added offline file transfers support.
  • added support for message deletion.
  • added custom status support.
  • everyone else in the group chat other than you will have their messages appear as if the contact whose chat got transformed into group is speaking. This was fixed.
  • protocol menu was lost during dynamic account creation.

• Facebook
  • brand new Facebook plugin based on MQTT protocol instead of the old deprecated plugin that used direct parsing of HTTP pages. The main advantage of the new plugin is that it doesn't block your account and works pretty fast. All users are welcome to test new plugin, any feedback is greatly appreciated as well as bug reports at our tracker.

• ICQ
  • accounts of people who have not used ICQ for more than a year are automatically deleted from the ICQ system and from the server contact list. Miranda no longer removes such contacts from the database in order to avoid the loss of history.
  • added error code detection during addBuddy (we allow to add [deleted] contacts, but only locally).
  • added experimental server group editor.
  • removed 80x80 px avatar limitation in avatar management dialog.
  • removed all statuses except Online and Offline. The server supports only these statuses.
  • display a url for the uploaded file instead of local path.
  • fixed problems with old server-side groups, created by Miranda IM.
  • fixed embedded groups problems.
  • fixed occasionally password reset.
  • manually deleted contact no longer appears again in the contact list.
  • ignored contacts now listed in Options → Contacts → Ignore.
  • fixed contact moving from root to any group.

• IRC
  • fixed the 10-yrs-old bug with displaying own messages with %%.

• Jabber
  • implemented XEP-0363: HTTP File Upload.
  • service-related options moved to Service Discovery menu.
  • vcard request is no longer tied to the program start, which allows to update them daily, even if the Miranda uptime is longer.
  • removed Convert to contact and Convert to chat room contact menu item (group chats are long time no stored in the roster, there are bookmarks for this).
  • fixed vcard retrieving problem for groupchat contacts with cyrillic nicks.
  • fixed incorrect stuts in the log when changing the status of a conference member.

• SkypeWeb
  • added support for receiveing multiple media files in one message.
  • added error codes parsing.

• Steam
  • enhanced processing of error code 401.

• Twitter
  • fixed update of user names.

• VKontakte
  • changed logic for "remind later" on friend request — now one per ReqAuthTimeLater (hidden option, default 86400) sec, not on protocol online.
  • fixed Load only friends to local contact list option.
  • crashfix on server error == 1 for file sending.
  • protocol menu was lost during dynamic account creation.

Plugins

  • add Display popups about successful actions option (to disable annoying "Version Info uploaded successfully" popup).

• Dbx_mdbx
  • added UI message about database compaction result.

For developers

• EnterString: added ability to enter simple strings (not multiline).
• removed useless service MS_UTILS_ENTERSTRING, use EnterString instead.
• Netlib_GetHeader() — handful utility to avoid writing cycles.

• MBinBuffer::assign - function to replace buffer contents.
• Miranda_GetSystemWindow - returns a common window for creating global timers.
• useless duplicate function GetContactProto replaced with standard Proto_GetBaseAccountName.
