New and improved in Amber v1.2 for WordPress:

  • Limited interoperability with other archives. Amber now supports the Memento Project's link attribute and HTTP headers. Visitors to your site running the Memento Time Travel plugin can right-click on any link to see the Amber archive in addition to other available versions of the same page from the Internet Archive and other major archives.
  • Security update. We've improved security for XSS (cross-site scripting) from malicious preserved content, limiting the effect of an attack to gain control of your WordPress installation.
  • Improved Dashboard. The Dashboard UI and functionality has been upgraded, including sorting features for links you’ve preserved.
  • Improved link checking. Amber’s regular link checking functionality works better. If desired, it now happens automatically at intervals.
  • Support for regular expressions. Want to automatically preserve all law.harvard.edu links, but not harvard.edu links? You can now choose to preserve or avoid preserving subdomains or directories (and more!) by using regex in Amber Settings.
  • Dedicated user agent. In addition to respecting the Robots Exclusion Standard, Amber now identifies itself with its own user agent.
  • Better support for WordPress multisite and permalinks. Amber now better supports WordPress instances running as part of multisite or that use atypical permalinks configurations.
