description: SpawnWP 0.5.17 release notes — the group is now a click-to-edit chip on the site card, and groups can be colour-coded.

SpawnWP 0.5.17

Fixes the clumsy group editor introduced in 0.5.16, and adds group colours.

The group is now a chip you click to edit

In 0.5.16 the 🏷 Group button opened the site's log console to hold a text field — so you
got an "output" header and a copy-to-clipboard icon around a form, and after saving, the group
was nowhere to be seen on the card.

Now:

• Each site shows its group as a chip next to the Running/Down badge — always visible, also
  when the card is collapsed and in the ungrouped view.
• Click the chip to edit it in place. Type a name, press Enter to save or Escape to
  cancel. A site with no group shows a ＋ Group chip instead.
• The old 🏷 Group button is gone, and nothing in the group flow touches the log console any more.

Colour-code your groups

The inline editor carries a row of six colours. Click one and it applies immediately —
there's no Save step. The colour then shows up in three places:

• the group chip on every site in that group,
• the group heading in the grouped view,
• the card border — which is what lets you spot a client's sites at a glance even with
  grouping switched off.

A site with no group, or a group with no colour, keeps the usual grey border.

Notes

• The colour belongs to the group, not to a single site: colouring one site colours the whole
  group, so a group can never show two different colours.
• Colours are stored on the server (/var/lib/spawnwp/group-colors.json), so they are the same
  from any browser. Labels no longer used by any site are cleaned up automatically.
• You can only colour a group that exists: name the group first, save, then pick a colour.
