What’s new in Oasis Workflow Pro v2.3
Fixed Security issues related to potential XSS attack caused due to add_query_arg() and remove_query_arg() WP functions – A recent update was made to WordPress to make the add_query_arg() and remove_query_arg() WP functions secure. Fixes were done to adhere to the new code standards to plug the security hole.
Email alert to inform the assignees if a non-assignee modified the article outside the workflow – If a user who is not in the current assignee list for the given task updates the article, an email alert will be sent to the current assignees informing them about the update.
