What’s New
🎉 Signup link setting to show “Get notified of updates” link to ChangelogWP.com
Changelogs > Settings > Signup Link
When enabled, this adds a link to your changelogs, and when a user clicks that link, they are redirected to ChangelogWP.com, where they can then add your changelog to their watchlist.
This is a global setting. Meaning, this applies to all changelogs unless you override on per-changelog basis.
🎉 Signup shortcode parameter – set to “true” to auto-generate URL from plugin_slug, or provide custom URL
This is similar to the previously mentioned feature, but this time we’re setting it on a per-changelog basis, via shortcode, rather than globally.
[changelog_service plugin_slug="changelog-service" signup="true"]🎉 Signup link attribute added to Gutenberg block with editor control
This is similar to the previously mentioned feature, but this time we’re setting it on a per-changelog basis, via the block editor, rather than globally.
🎉 Filter ‘caas_shortcode_output’
This new filter allows you to change the final HTML however you’d like right before it is displayed.
