GitHub Spotlight: 7/1/2026

Here's what's new in Rock's GitHub for Pre-Alpha Release 20.0.5, released on June 30, 2026.

v18.4 Highlights

• Issue 6864: Fixed missing icons in the legacy check-in themes (such as Electric), where buttons like History and Reprint Labels appeared blank instead of showing their icons.

v19.1 Highlights

• Fixed issue that prevented non-staff logins from being able to use the location picker in the check-in manager.
• Fixed an issue that prevented DOCX merge templates with Lava in the header and footer sections from rendering properly in 19.0.
• Issue 6850: Updated the Benevolence Request Detail block to honor block-level security instead of entity-level security when adding or editing requests.

v19.3 Highlights

• Fixed the Connections Hub email composer so the From Name and From Address default to the current person and the draft no longer carries over when switching between people.
• Fixed a bug that could cause MCP clients such as Claude to either not reliably connect to Rock's MCP server or to require frequent manual reconnection.
• Fixed a bug with the RSVP Response Block where changes to public Group Member attributes were discarded when a recipient clicked Decline.
• Issue 6672: Improved the performance of the DeleteBinaryFileAttribute task, which deletes unreferenced binary files when a file-type attribute is deleted or its value changes.
• Issue 6789: Fixed a bug in Next-Gen Check-in that caused groups filtered by ability level to not be available during an override check-in.
• Issue 6869: Fixed a bug in the {% httpresponse %} Lava command where a header value containing both a text string and a merge field would produce an unexpected space between them.
• Issue 6872: Fixed a bug in the RSVP Response block where the heading would show the generic "RSVP for Event" text instead of the Attendance Occurrence Name when accessed through the Accept or Decline link in an RSVP email.
• Issue 6874: Fixed a bug where a Step Program's "Status Change" Workflow trigger, configured with a "From" status of "Any", would fire on every save rather than only when the status actually changed.
• Issue 6877: Fixed the Registration Entry block to hide the "Save account information for future payments" option when an anonymous registrar cannot create a usable login, such as on a Passwordless-only site with Database authentication disabled.
• Issue 6878: Fixed Defined Value attributes not loading their options when editing an Event Item.
• Issue 6879: Fixed an issue that prevented check-in manager from showing next-gen raw ZPL labels as valid reprint options.
• Issue 6881: Fixed a bug in the Event Detail block where editing attributes using the inline attribute editors, such as adding a new Defined Value returned an error.
• Issue 6882: Fixed registrants being unable to complete payment for a full or over-capacity registration, such as when using a redirect payment gateway, after being moved off the wait list, or after an administrator reduced the instance capacity.
• Issue 6883: Fixed a bug in the File and Binary File attributes where they are not showing a View link when displayed read-only in Obsidian blocks, such as the new Connections Request docked panel.
• Issue 6884: Fixed the {% dbtransaction %} Lava command to properly clear uncommitted Entity Framework changes, and added an 'enablecontextisolation' parameter that runs the transaction in an isolated database context so errors inside it don't affect later transactions.
• Issue 6885: Fixed Obsidian grids omitting numeric values from the export when a column is formatted as Text.
• Issue 6888: Fixed a bug the Person Merge Requests List block where it failed to load due to a merge request with no "Created By Person Alias" property value.
• Issue 6891: Fixed a bug in the Obsidian Workflow Entry block where the Person attributes are not clickable links when viewed from the entry form and the attribute is configured as read-only.
• Issue 6892: Fixed an issue that caused a newly created named location that is a child of another location to not be available to check-in kiosks right away until Rock restarted or the cache was cleared.
• Issue 6893: Fixed the Connections Hub block so individuals can edit and delete their own Connection Activities even without explicit edit permission on the Connection Request.
• Issue 6895: Fixed the Location Detail block so clearing the name of a named location no longer hides the other fields while editing.
• Issue 6896: Fixed a bug in the Prayer Comment List block where custom columns didn't have access to the Prayer Request data from the Row Lava merge field.
• Issue 6899: Fixed the Achievement Type Detail page timing out for achievement types with a large number of attempts.
