v1.4.14

= 1.4.14 =

• Fixed: updating two of these extensions one after the other could fail on the second with "up to date" until Check for updates was pressed again. WordPress rebuilds its update list after each update by asking wordpress.org first, and gives up on the whole list when that call is slow; the plugin now keeps its own update in the list regardless.
• Changed: a release found more than an hour ago is refreshed in the background whenever the Plugins screen is opened, so the newest release is offered rather than an intermediate one.
• New: a Check for updates bulk action on the Plugins screen, which checks every selected extension in one go, and the row that says Updating no longer shrinks on phones.

v1.4.13

1.4.13

• Housekeeping: carries the settings-screen stylesheet block shared across this family of extensions, so the copies stay identical. Nothing on this plugin's own settings page changes.

v1.4.12

1.4.12

Fixed

• The arrows in the readme showed stray characters around them. Nothing in the plugin itself changes.

v1.4.11

Social Proof for HivePress 1.4.11

Changed: the shared icon library is updated to the version that fixed two faults found in Account Menu Enhancer 3.4.0 — a repeater row inheriting its neighbour's icon on save, and a re-picked icon drawing the old glyph enlarged. Neither could happen on this extension's own screens, and nothing here changes; it is released so that every combination of extensions carries the corrected copy, whichever one a site happens to load it from.

v1.4.10

1.4.10

• Changed: icons are now drawn directly into the page instead of being loaded as a font. A visitor's browser no longer downloads roughly 230 KB of stylesheet and font files just to show a few small pictures, and the icons can no longer clash with the icon font HivePress loads itself. Your colour and size settings work exactly as before.
• Added: every icon in the free Font Awesome 7 set is now available, brand icons included, which is around 800 more than before. Type a few letters to find one rather than scrolling a long list, and each result still shows you the icon itself.
• Changed: the settings screen loads a great deal faster, because the icon choices are fetched as you search instead of every one of them being written into the page.

v1.4.4

1.4.4

• Changed - internal formatting only. Some explanatory comments in the settings screen's script were reworded to match the wording used across the rest of these extensions, so the file is easier to compare with its siblings. Nothing about the settings screen, or anything else the plugin does, has changed.

1.4.3

• Changed - the settings screen now carries the same furniture as every other extension in this family. The jump links are labelled "Jump to a section:" and stay with you as you scroll, a Save Changes tab sits on the right edge of the screen wherever you are on the page, and a button in the bottom corner takes you back to the top. Nothing about what the settings do has changed.

1.4.2

• Changed - the bundled icon set is the complete free one, so an icon can never be drawn in the wrong style. Nothing you can pick in the icon grid looked wrong before this.

1.4.1

• Changed - the icons ship inside the plugin rather than being fetched from a third-party server, so every request stays on your own site and the icons draw with the rest of the page. Your chosen icons and settings are unaffected.

1.4.0

• Added - icon tiles are now fully customisable: icon size, weight (normal, semi-bold or bold), icon colour and tile background colour, under Design > Icon tiles. Defaults match the previous appearance, so nothing changes until you adjust them.
• Added - a much larger icon choice, picked from a visual grid that shows each icon, including Font Awesome 6/7 icons and brand icons such as Facebook, Instagram and WhatsApp. The Font Awesome 7 stylesheet is loaded only when icon tiles are actually in use.
• Added - quick links at the top of the settings screen jump straight to any section, and sections are now visually divided.
• Changed - settings descriptions are shorter and wrap at a readable line length.

v1.3.9

• Fixed - pop-ups no longer sit on top of the Action Bar. With Action Bar for HivePress active, a pop-up covered most of the bar for the whole time it was on screen, so tapping Home, Browse or Account hit the pop-up instead, and tapping the right hand item hit the pop-up's close button, which also stopped pop-ups for that visitor.
• Fixed - "Hide activity popups" no longer appears in the middle of submitting a listing or registering as a vendor. It belongs on the account settings page and now only appears there.
• Fixed - pop-ups no longer overlap the Notifications for HivePress pop-ups. The check that moves them clear read the wrong screen size, so a site using a top position on phones and a bottom position on desktops got both stacks in the same corner.
• Fixed - "Exclude pages" now works on a WordPress installed in a subdirectory. Paths were compared against the full web address rather than the site relative one the field asks for, so nothing ever matched. Paths written the old way still work.
• Fixed - the update details popup now shows code and links inside release notes correctly, instead of replacing them with a number.
• Fixed - the settings are now loaded with the rest of the site's options rather than fetched separately on every page.
• Fixed - deleting the plugin now also clears the update check's own leftovers and cancels its background update check.

v1.3.8

Fixed

• Checking for updates no longer holds up an admin page. The check ran while WordPress was building the Plugins screen, so on a site with several of these extensions one page load made one request to GitHub after another and could sit there for many seconds, once, before behaving normally again for hours. The check now runs in the background moments later. Pressing Check for updates still asks GitHub straight away, because you are waiting for that answer.

v1.3.7

Fixed

• Checking for updates no longer reports "Could not reach GitHub" when nothing is wrong. GitHub allows one server only a limited number of anonymous update checks each hour, and that allowance is shared by every plugin on your site and, on shared hosting, by every other site on the same server. Running out of it is ordinary, but it was reported as though your site could not reach GitHub at all. Update checks now read the release from github.com, which sets no such limit, so the message no longer appears. If the limit is ever reached by another route, the notice now says so plainly instead of blaming your connection.
• A failed update check no longer hides an update that is genuinely waiting. The last successful answer is kept until a later check succeeds, so a pending update stays on the Plugins screen instead of vanishing for an hour.

Nothing else changes, and nothing on your site was ever at risk: a failed check only meant WordPress was not offered the update.

v1.3.6

Changed

• The plugin now declares HivePress as a required plugin, so WordPress warns you before activating it on a site without HivePress rather than leaving it doing nothing.
