Hi, everyone. Here’s the release notes for version 1.1.3. We did quite a lot of work on this version and we now have a solid base to start the release schedule of our add-ons. This version addresses some major issues users were having. The complete changelog can be found on the bottom of the page.
New Features
Let’s dive in what’s new in this version.
Shortcuts to add and remove time from a Subscription
Since version 1.1.0, change a subscription’s active until parameter is as easy as it could be. However, you would still need to add or remove a billing cycle by using the calendar selector on the field.
Now you’ll have two helper buttons that let you add or remove a billing cycle with just one click (it will add 1 month to monthly subscriptions, 3 months for quarterly subscriptions and 12 months for a yearly subscription), with no need to refresh the page or even to click the save button! Here’s a GIF demonstrating the feature:
Redirecting after Sign-up
WP Ultimo now offers a handy filter to allow you to change the redirect URL after your client completes the sing-up process. The default behavior is to send the newly created user to his admin panel dashboard, but you can change it now to any page you want. We’ve put together a simple tutorial demonstrating how to use that filter.
Removing Post Types from the Pricing Tables
Some WordPress sites have tons of Custom Post Types installed. WP Ultimo used to display all of them in the pricing tables, with their respective limits. Now it is possible to select which post types to display in each plan pricing table, in the Pricing Table Tab of the Plan Edit page.
System Info Page
In order to facilitate support requests, we added a simple system info page to WP Ultimo. It generates a text-area with all the relevant information about your server and WordPress install, allowing our support team to get a better view of what may be the causes of a particular issue. When you run into an issue, remember to send your system info page results together with your support email. It helps a lot!
Fixes
This version also contains a number of important bugfixes. Despite our latest release, we discovered that some users were still having issues creating new sites from the panel. That is now fixed; PHP notices throughout the plugin were fixed as well;
Delete links all over the WordPress admin were being blocked. That was also fixed in this version; WP Ultimo also validates input on the custom domain widget now.
