New Query Builder 4

[Universal-Omega]

This is the fourth pre-release version for DynamicPageList3 containing significantly more major changes to how some queries are constructed, particularly around the use of LIKE when using match parameters. It significantly improves the security around many features and parameters. Additionally, it adds support for PostgreSQL when using regex parameters.

Additionally, this release fixes the usage of ignorecase with support for all of MySQL (and MariaDB), PostgreSQL, and SQLite. Previously this did not function at all on the majority of modern database setups.

Like mentioned previously, if you encounter issues with the pre-release versions, please open an issue or post in the discussion for this release.

P.S. (as mentioned previously) Before these pre-release versions are released to stable, DynamicPageList3 will likely be re-released as DynamicPageList4 (version 4.0.0) with numerous other improvements/fixes/changes as well. Therefore MediaWiki 1.44 may be the last version of MediaWiki where the current DPL3 is supported, because DPL4 will likely be released with MediaWiki 1.45 compatibility for the categorylinks normalization support as well.
