Notificator 1.2
Version 1.2 adds first-class support for user-owned MQTT connections and makes the plugin settings clearer and easier to manage.
What's new
- Connect your own HiveMQ Cloud cluster from the new MQTT connection settings.
- Test the MQTT connection before enabling it for notification delivery.
- See clearer delivery-readiness feedback when MQTT is unavailable or incomplete.
- Use
notificator-projectas the default topic prefix for new connections, matching the current device firmware. - Navigate a reorganized Settings area with consistent tabs, improved typography, stronger contrast, and responsive controls.
MQTT privacy and security
- MQTT passwords are encrypted locally in WordPress.
- Credentials are excluded from exports, diagnostics, logs, and saved retry jobs.
- Credentials are sent to the API only in memory for an enabled MQTT delivery or an explicit connection test.
- The API does not store users' HiveMQ account credentials.
Important MQTT change
Notificator no longer assumes a project-managed default MQTT broker. MQTT delivery is optional, but users who enable it must connect their own supported HiveMQ Cloud cluster under Settings → Connections. Dashboard and mobile push alerts continue to work independently of MQTT.
Additional improvements
- MQTT connection tests remain delivery-only and do not create activity events or notifications.
- WordPress Coding Standards configuration and release checks were refreshed for the public 1.2 package.
