Jetonomy v1.3.0
- New: Share forum threads anywhere — paste any topic URL into Slack, Twitter/X, Discord, Facebook, or another WordPress site and you'll see a rich preview card with the title, author, excerpt, space, and thumbnail. No extra setup needed.
- New: Embed videos and music in posts — just paste a YouTube, Vimeo, SoundCloud, Spotify, TED Talks, or other supported link into a post or reply and it plays inline instead of showing as a plain URL.
- New: Instagram and Facebook embed support — optional free Meta Developer App integration under Settings → SEO → Social Embeds lets pasted Instagram and Facebook URLs unfurl as rich previews. Includes a 5-minute step-by-step setup guide right in the settings screen. Leave the fields blank to skip — URLs fall back to plain clickable links.
- New: BuddyX, BuddyX Pro, and Reign theme compatibility — your forum automatically picks up the active theme's accent color and dark mode, so your community looks at home with zero custom CSS.
- New: AI spam detection — optional AI-powered spam filter for new posts and replies. Free, self-hosted via Ollama (no API costs, no data leaves your server).
- New: Ad and content injection slots — new hooks let you (or your custom code) drop banners, promotions, or extra content into the sidebar, reply flow, and below the space intro.
- New: Change your community URL safely — if you rename your community base (e.g. /forum/ → /community/), Jetonomy now automatically redirects visitors from the old URLs so you don't lose search traffic or bookmarks.
- New: WordPress Abilities API integration — 18 abilities across 5 categories let AI assistants and automation tools drive Jetonomy from the terminal.
- New: Demo data seeder — one-click demo content for previewing how your community will look, with a cleanup button when you're done.
- New: Richer search preview snippets — search engines see thread titles, author names, publish dates, and space categories for better listings.
- Improvement: Theme compatibility across 12+ popular themes — page titles, container widths, and responsive layouts tested and tuned.
- Improvement: Forum topics now render 2–3× faster on big spaces (10,000+ topics) thanks to smarter database queries.
- Improvement: Vote buttons stay consistent even under heavy concurrent use — no more stuck or duplicate votes.
- Improvement: Pagination is more accurate — "Load more" and "has more" work correctly across all lists.
- Improvement: Admin list pages load faster with fewer database hits.
- Improvement: Daily activity cleanup runs without locking the database on large sites.
- Improvement: All admin pages and forms are easier on screen readers and keyboard users.
- Improvement: Content displayed in forum threads is fully sanitized and escaped for safety.
- Fix: Firefox scheduled-post time picker — the time field now shows a proper picker widget (was previously date-only on Firefox).
- Fix: The "..." more menu on posts and replies now opens reliably across browsers.
- Fix: Publish mode menu no longer flashes open-then-closed when you load the new topic page.
- Fix: Notification bell dropdown no longer throws a console warning on page load.
- Fix: Clicking a single notification in the header dropdown now marks just that one as read (no more "mark all or nothing").
- Fix: "Join Space" button now shows correctly for non-members on public spaces.
- Fix: Join request emails now send to the right space admins and link to the admin screen instead of the public page.
- Fix: Join request admin tab stays visible while pending requests exist.
- Fix: Posts-per-page setting at the space level now actually applies to that space's topic listing.
- Fix: Space settings no longer lose unrelated keys when you save a partial form.
- Fix: Dark mode token bridge now mirrors the theme's real dark state on every page load.
- Fix: Notifications properly persist for private message events.
- Fix: Private message notifications now dispatch reliably when Pro is active.
- Fix: License activation flow no longer errors on third-party plugin-info calls.
- Fix: Double reply counter increment on new replies.
- Fix: 10 earlier customer-reported bugs fixed — BuddyPress compatibility crash, notification defaults, vote state indicator, admin "View" link, join request admin UI, post scheduling default timestamps, settings write consistency, REST nonce handling, and cookie credentials on fetch calls.
Upgrade notes
Jetonomy 1.3.0 includes a small database update that runs automatically on the next admin page load. No manual action required. Free activation is unchanged.
