Upcoming Changelog: 6.4.3

The upcoming update will include the latest WPBakery plugin. However, there are a few critical bugs that need to be resolved first. We strongly advise not updating WPBakery yet, as doing so could cause issues.

We are aware that the newest version addresses a security vulnerability. This patch affects only users with contributor-level access or higher, so it is not considered urgent for most sites. Always ensure that users with elevated permissions are trustworthy.

  • Added Ability to activate a license as “staging” (without API registration) on unlimited dev sites.
  • Added Customizer options for the logo icon: dimensions, background color and border radius.
  • Added Support to the spacing element for the lh unit (computed line height).
  • Added Greater-than and Chevron options to the separator choices for the Breadcrumbs element.
  • Added Color option for the Heading badge element.
  • Added Code to disable the new admin notice added by WPBakery in the latest update.
  • Added Code to disable the Add-ons tab added by WPBakery to the Add Element window in the latest update.
  • Added Row and Column Span utility classes which will allow you to make elements in the Grid Container take up multiple rows or columns (sample video).
  • Added Support for the dark mode toggle in the mobile icons menu.
  • Added Vietnamese locale thanks to @valsvetvn.
  • Updated WPBakery and Slider Revolution plugins.
  • Updated Renamed the “Theme Button” element to just “Button”.
  • Updated Renamed the Heading option “Add Design to Inner Span” to “Style Text Only”.
  • Updated The Heading element to display the default HTML tag for quick reference.
  • Updated The Heading element so the theme’s background color, padding, border radius and shadow settings can be used with all the heading styles.
  • Updated The Navigation Bar filter functionality to support dashes in the ?filter URL parameter. You can now link directly to a filter by replacing spaces with dashes. For example, to link to an item named ‘Category One’, use ?filter=category-one.
  • Updated The Navigation Bar when used as a filter, so that the mobile select empty text option is added with the disabled attribute. This way it serves as a prompt only and won’t break filtering as your first filter item should be an “all” link.
  • Updated The theme patterns list for WPBakery is now requested via AJAX and cached in JS memory to slim down the DOM (this means we can add many more patterns without a decrease in site performance).
  • Updated The Total theme WPBakery patterns popup window design.
  • Fixed Missing “New Template” button in the Header Builder.
  • Fixed Issue with ajax filter caching not resetting the filter buttons only the grid when un-selecting an active filter button.
  • Fixed When using the Navigation Bar as a filter and the mobile select enabled, filtering items on desktop will also set the selected attribute on the corresponding mobile select in case the user shrinks their browser window after making a selection.
  • Fixed “Increment on non-alphanumeric string is deprecated” notices in PHP 8.4+ for older grid elements.
  • Fixed Missing Height and Width settings for some WPBakery row divider styles.
  • Fixed Issue where using the “wpex-col-span-full” class on elements added to the Grid Container would not span full width in the WPBakery frontend editor.
  • Fixed Issue with the Post Cards load more button not working when using a Meta Query.
  • Fixed Issue where adding a new license and removing it right away without refreshing the page wouldn’t deregister the license from the API.
  • Fixed Issue where activating a license on the main site prevented access to the license panel on a multisite sub-site that had previously activated its own license.
  • Fixed Some localized strings incorrectly ending with an empty space.
  • Fixed “Alignment” typo in various setting labels.
  • Fixed Issue with Post Cards ajax loading (filter menu or load more) when adding a dynamic variable to any field.
  • Fixed The alignfull class so it takes the site frame border into account.

Changes

  • Added - CSS variables: --wpex-100vw and --wpex-50vw which account for visible scrollbars and the site frame border if enabled.
  • Updated - The Navigation Bar element so the data-vcex-name attribute value uses dashes instead of spaces.
  • Fixed - The "walker_nav_menu_start_el" hook was not working correctly with the Horizontal Menu and Off Canvas Menu elements.
