On every page in the Define Page Editor, it just goes to this default includes/local/skip_version_check.ini. No matter which page I select. It won't let me edit any pages.

On PHP 5 zc_install might give a message saying "Warning: Constants may only evaluate to scalar values".

Fixed this way: https://github.com/zencart/zencart/commit/724ae99bd32c8d9bc1bf24dc3b0704e883892283

Re: Known bugs (and fixes) for v1.5.7 series

It is possible that if you're using plugins which register Observer classes, if more than one is attaching to the same notifier event, only the first one will fire when a notification is dispatched.

This is fixed by making a small code change:

In v1.5.7 the display of products for 'Customers who bought this product also purchased....' at bottom of product info page may not appear.

In 1.5.7, when copying a product to a new one, the master category might not get set for the new category.

Re: Known bugs (and fixes) for v1.5.7 series

In v1.5.6 and v1.5.7 (before 157a) entering a password in Admin (for an Admin or to reset for a customer) was encoding any "special characters" such as < or > symbols.

The fix will be included in v157a, and can be applied manually by adding the lines shown in green here to the file mentioned:

Re: Known bugs (and fixes) for v1.5.7 series

A handful of very important bugfixes have been included in the release of v157b.
If you're using v157 or v157a, it is critical that you upgrade to v157b ASAP.
