v0.8.9.1 Hotfix

[majora2007]

We decided to issue a small hotfix, with minor fixes and some enhancements on a new endpoint related to Auth Keys, to ensure it's easy from the get-go for external app creators.

Changed

• Changed: The image reader will now always send a progress event for chapters with exactly one page.

Fixed

• Fixed: Fixed re-read prompt not being disabled when setting is 0
• Fixed: Fixed empty re-read setting breaking saving flow
• Fixed: Fixed theme being reset
• Fixed: Fixed some tables not loading in the statistics page for admins, breaking the page.
• Fixed: Fixed inconsistent behaviour with the /api/plugin/authkey-expires endpoint.

I installed this hotfix and yet it still shows version 0.8.9.0 on startup:

Ran the sha256sum against both binaries, it is the one I downloaded from this site. I am not sure why it still shows this as 0.8.9.0.

Sorry if this is not allowed.

It looks like a build issue from our side. I will rebuild the assets tomorrow and make an announcement here and discord.

Confirmed fixed! Thank you, thought I was losing my mind, tbh! Thank you for confirmation I am still sane! Although my kids would still say otherwise!
