You've sent your password to the wrong window (ie: WeeChat), and it is now public, viewed by 1,500 people?
For now, you have to change your password.
For the future, a new script is now available: anti_password.py.
How does it work?
When you press Enter to send text to a buffer, the script detects if the input is a password, in two ways:
- If the input matches a condition: number of words, lower/upper/digit/special chars.
- If a secured data value is in the input (reminder: secured data is the recommended way to store all your passwords in WeeChat) (requires WeeChat ≥ 3.1).
If a password is detected, the text is not sent to the buffer (3 times with the default config).
Note: the WeeChat commands (ie /xxx) are ignored and are always sent.
Options
There are 4 options to configure the script (see /fset anti_password for a list of options with help):
allowed_regex: allowed regular expression (checked first)password_condition: the condition used to detect a passwordcheck_secured_data: whether the script checks for secured data (disabled, input equals secured data or secured data included in input)max_rejects: the number of times the same input is rejected; after this number, the input is finally sent to the buffer.
Keep your passwords safe!
Updated on 2021-03-13: added option allowed_regex.

Don't panic with long URLs and don't give your private URLs any more to shortening services!
A new script urlserver.py has been added. This script shortens URLs displayed and serve them using own HTTP server, which can be used to display a list of all URLs as well.
Many options are available to customize shortening of URLs, display in WeeChat and HTML page (see /help urlserver and /set plugins.var.python.urlserver.*).
The URLs are saved into ~/.weechat/urlserver_list.txt when script is unloaded, so that URLs are persistent when you restart WeeChat.

The short name of buffers can be changed with /buffer set short_name <new_name> command. This might be useful for long channel names displayed in the buffers bar (buflist plugin with WeeChat ≥ 1.8 or script buffers.pl with an older version).
For example on channel #weechat:
/buffer set short_name #wee
New value is used immediately, but is not saved in config file. To make it persistent, you have to use script buffer_autoset.py:
/autosetbuffer add irc.freenode.#weechat short_name #wee
Note1: it's not recommended to set short name of query buffers, because WeeChat will change name of buffer when nick changes.
Note2: you should use command /buffer set with precautions, it is not recommended to change other buffer properties if you're not sure about what you do. This could lead to weird behaviour or a crash.

Major changes were done in script API: data string was added to all callbacks. C plugin API is already ok (there is data pointer for callbacks).
Therefore, all scripts for development version are incompatible with this new version. All official scripts have been updated on plugins page.
This data string must be added after each callback function in arguments of functions. For example in python :
weechat.hook_command("go", "Quick jump to buffers", "", "", "", "go_cmd")
(...)
def go_cmd(buffer, args):
becomes:
weechat.hook_command("go", "Quick jump to buffers", "", "", "", "go_cmd", "")
(...)
def go_cmd(data, buffer, args):
