Ghost

We experienced a problem with 1.20.1. The blog kept too many database connections open. We are still investigating the cause of this problem.

Furthermore if you are a theme developer, we fixed a syntax error in our code base, which could in theory affect you while developing your theme. Please upgrade your blog to be on the safe side.

⚠️ This release adds some missing length validations to database fields. If you have only been using the default Ghost admin panel or Ghost Desktop, don't worry, everything is fine 😄 However, if you have used the private API or 3rd party clients there is a small chance that you have data stored on resources that is larger than the allowed size - in that case you may run into a limit error next time that resource is saved. If you get any unexpected errors please swing by our Slack channel!

NOTE : We've bumped the minimum required version for Node v8 to >=8.9.0 - see and see. If you are using v8, you have to update to the latest available version, otherwise you are unable to start Ghost. Especially when using the CLI, you could run into this issue.

The note above only affects people running Ghost with v8, you don't have to do anything when using Node v4 or v6!
