* ADDED: "bootstrap-compact" template that hides some of the options in a drop down menu to ensure the nav bar fitting on one line on smaller screen sizes
* FIXING: Various usability issues with different screen sizes / device types in the "bootstrap" template
* CHANGED: Instead of having different options to enable and preselect certain formats there is now a generic `[formatter_options]` section where formats can be added to the displayed format drop down menu. A `defaultformatter` can be set, it defaults to "plaintext". The `syntaxhighlighting` configuration got deprecated.
* `zerobin.js` got a major refactoring:
* moved from global namespace into anonymous function
* events are no longer set via "onclick" attributes in the templates, but bound by from JS side
* for simpler maintenance the functions were grouped into objects: zerobin (display logic, event handling), filter (compression,
encryption), i18n (translation, counterpart of i18n.php) and helper (stateless utilities)
* Wiki pages were added to address common topics:
* [Upgrading from ZeroBin 0.19 Alpha](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Upgrading-from-ZeroBin-0.19-Alpha)
* [Directory of public PrivateBin servers](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/PrivateBin-Directory)
* [Translation](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Translation)
* [Templates](https://github.com/PrivateBin/PrivateBin/wiki/Templates)
* **0.20 (2015-09-03)**:
* ADDED: Password protected pastes (optional)
* ADDED: configuration options for highlighting, password, discussions, expiration times, rate limiting
* ADDED: JSON-only retrieval of paste incl. discussion, used to be able to refresh paste when posting a comment
* ADDED: bootstrap CSS based template
* CHANGED: "Burn after reading" pastes are now deleted only after the paste was successfully decrypted via callback. This prevents accidental deletion by chatbots following URLs and the like. Usage of a password is suggested to ensure only the desired recipient is able to encrypt it.
* CHANGED: the "opendiscussion" option now only controls if the discussion checkbox is preselected. Use "discussion = false" to disable the discussion feature completely (which also removes the checkbox from the template).
* FIXING: Behaviour of several conflicting configuration options. As a general measure unit tests for 9 of the options and all their possible configurations were added via a unit test generator.
* updated JS libraries: jquery to 1.11.3, sjcl to 1.0.2, base64.js to 2.1.9, deflate to 0.5, inflate to 0.3 and prettify to latest
* generally improved documentation, both inline phpdoc / JSdoc source code documentation, as well as Wiki pages on installation, configuration, development and JSON-API
* **Alpha 0.19 (2013-07-05)**:
* Corrected XSS security flaw which affected IE<10. Other browsers were not affected.
* Corrected spacing display in IE<10.
* **Alpha 0.18 (2013-02-24)**:
* ADDED: The resulting URL is automatically selected after pressing "Send". You just have to press CTRL+C.
* ADDED: Automatic syntax highlighting for 53 languages using highlight.js
* ADDED: "5 minutes" and "1 week" expirations.
* ADDED: "Raw text" button.
* jQuery upgraded to 1.9.1
* sjcl upgraded to GitHub master 2013-02-23
* base64.js upgraded to 1.7
* FIXED: Dates in discussion are now proper local dates.
* ADDED: Robot meta tags in HTML to prevent search engines indexing.
* ADDED: Better json checking (including entropy).
* ADDED: Added version to js/css assets URLs in order to prevent some abusive caches to serve an obsolete version of these files when ZeroBin is upgraded.
* "Burn after reading" option has been moved out of Expiration combo to a separate checkbox. Reason is: You can prevent a read-once paste to be available ad vitam eternam on the net.
* **Alpha 0.17 (2013-02-23)**:
* ADDED: Deletion URL.
* small refactoring.
* improved regex checks.
* larger server alt on installation.
* **Alpha 0.16**:
* FIXED minor php warnings.
* FIXED: zerobin.js reformated and properly commented.
* FIXED: Directory structure re-organized.
* CHANGED: URL shortening button was removed. (It was bad for privacy.)
* **Alpha 0.15 (2012-04-20):**
* FIXED: 2 minor corrections to avoid notices in php log.
* FIXED: Sources converted to UTF-8.
* **Alpha 0.14 (2012-04-20):**
* ADDED: GD presence is checked.
* CHANGED: Traffic limiter data files moved to data/ (→easier rights management)
* ADDED: "Burn after reading" implemented. Opening the URL will display the paste and immediately destroy it on server.
* **Alpha 0.13 (2012-04-18):**
* FIXED: ''imageantialias()'' call removed because it's not really usefull and can be a problem on most hosts (if GD is not compiled in php).
* FIXED: $error not properly initialized in index.php
* **Alpha 0.12 (2012-04-18):**
* **DISCUSSIONS !** Now you can enable discussions on your pastes. Of course, posted comments and nickname are also encrypted and the server cannot see them.
* This feature implies a change in storage format. You will have to delete all previous pastes in your ZeroBin.
* Added [[php:vizhash_gd|Vizhash]] as avatars, so you can match posters IP addresses without revealing them. (Same image = same IP). Of course the IP address cannot be deduced from the Vizhash.
* Remaining time before expiration is now displayed.
* Explicit tags were added to CSS and jQuery selectors (eg. div#aaa instead of #aaa) to speed up browser.
* Better cleaning of the URL (to make sure the key is not broken by some stupid redirection service)
* **Alpha 0.11 (2012-04-12):**
* Automatically ignore parameters (such as &utm_source=...) added //after// the anchor by some stupid Web 2.0 services.
* First public release.
* **Alpha 0.10 (2012-04-12):**
* IE9 does not seem to correctly support ''pre-wrap'' either. Special handling mode activated for all version of IE<10. (Note: **ALL other browsers** correctly support this feature.)
* **Alpha 0.9 (2012-04-11):**
* Oh bummer... IE 8 is as shitty as IE6/7: Its does not seem to support ''white-space:pre-wrap'' correctly. I had to activate the special handling mode. I still have to test IE 9.
* **Alpha 0.8 (2012-04-11):**
* Source code not published yet.
* Interface completely redesigned. Icons added.
* Now properly supports IE6/7 (ugly display, but it works. "Clone" button is disabled though.)
* Added one level of depth for storage directories (This is better for higher load servers).
* php version is now checked (min: 5.2.6)
* Better checks on posted json data on server.
* Added "1 year" expiration.
* URLs are now converted to clickable links. This include http, https, ftp and magnet links.
* Clickable links include ''rel="nofollow"'' to discourage SEO.
* On my public service (http://sebsauvage.net/paste/)
* All data will be deleted (you were warned - this is a test service)
* Default paste expiration is now 1 month to prevent clogging-up my host.
