2018.06.22 has been installed on this site. The first post is an example of using the new feature for posting a summary custom field to XenForo rather than an excerpt, link, or complete WordPress post.

Changelog
( 26 ) 2018.06.2 - June 22, 2018
Support for a new WordPress custom field written to XenForo

Delayed releasing the next version after a report was made regarding a blank page after installation. The toolbar was enabled for the release and apparently, this may be the culprit.

Spent the day tracking down the WooCommerce conflict which involves the following line in WooCommerce:

PHP:
add_filter( 'editable_roles', 'wc_modify_editable_roles' );

The function removes administrator which is needed in the XenWord user mapping and called in the xenword init file.[/php]

The fix is in the xf2-init.php, line near 1400:

Change:
PHP:
$xenword_editable_roles = array_reverse( get_editable_roles() );

To:
PHP:
$xenword_editable_roles = array_reverse( wp_roles()->roles );
