Apr 1, 2026April 2026 (2026-04) – pretix/pretix: Key features delivered: None this month. Major bugs fixed: ISU Write Access Permission Enforcement — Updated permission checks so that ISU actions require event.settings.payment:write rather than event.settings.general:write, strengthening security and access control. Commit 0f2ebb8687e56ce3fd3961d5480968af14c283e1 (PPv2: Fix permission-check for ISU (event.settings.general:write to event.settings.payment:write)). Overall impact and accomplishments: Implemented least-privilege control to prevent unauthorized ISU writes, reducing risk of misconfiguration in payment-related settings and improving data integrity for revenue workflows. Technologies/skills demonstrated: Backend permission modeling, access-control enforcement, Python code changes, security-focused testing and code review.

Oct 1, 2025October 2025 monthly summary for pretix/pretix focusing on delivery accuracy, performance optimization, and UX improvements. Key features delivered and bugs fixed include: (1) a bug fix in Order Change Manager to correctly compute remaining items by excluding already canceled addons, preventing double-counting and ensuring accurate order status reporting; (2) a performance-driven refactor to SubEvent so item_overrides and var_overrides are prefetchable via new managers, enabling prefetch_related and reducing query overhead; (3) a UX enhancement to unify unlock flows so a payment method can be unlocked while redeeming a voucher in a single step, streamlining the user experience. Overall impact includes improved order data accuracy, faster page loads for events with complex overrides, and a smoother checkout experience, contributing to higher conversion and reduced support friction. Technologies demonstrated include Django ORM optimizations (prefetch_related), model manager refactors, and UX-flow orchestration.
