1.3.2
Architecture: Implemented a robust Hooks/Actions API (do_action) across the frontend and backend. This allows third-party Add-ons to seamlessly inject features, UI elements, and data without modifying Core files.
Enhancement: Added JavaScript custom events (alba_modal_loaded) to allow Add-ons to reliably initialize scripts (like Select2 or color pickers) inside AJAX-loaded modals.
Accessibility (Frontend): Synchronized power-user keyboard shortcuts to the frontend view. Users can now press Esc to close the card modal, and Ctrl+Enter (or Cmd+Enter on Mac) to quickly submit a comment.
1.3.1
Fix: Resolved an issue where refreshing the browser page after creating a new board, list, or card would duplicate the item.
Enhancement: Added accessibility keyboard shortcuts for power users. You can now use Esc to close modals or cancel inline forms, and Ctrl+Enter (or Cmd+Enter on Mac) to quickly save card changes.
1.3.0
Feature: File Attachments! You can now upload and manage files directly inside cards. Added dedicated settings to control max file size, allowed formats, and upload limits per card.
Feature: Dashboard Widget. Added a native WordPress dashboard widget “My Alba Board Tasks” so users can instantly see their assigned cards across all boards upon logging in.
Feature: Data Export. Administrators can now export entire boards to CSV or JSON formats with a single click.
1.2.0
Feature: User Avatars! Cards now display the assigned user’s profile picture on both the frontend and backend boards for better visual tracking and collaboration.
Feature: 1-Click Onboarding. Added a “Create a Sample Board” empty state for new users to instantly generate a fully functional demo board with lists and sample cards.
Enhancement: Improved card footer layout to perfectly align colored tags and user avatars.
Optimization: Eliminated N+1 database query overhead in the board shortcode. Cards are now fetched in a single, highly efficient query regardless of the number of lists.
Compatibility: 100% backward compatibility maintained with all official add-ons (Frontend Interactions, Card Tags).
Under the hood: Improved post-term caching for card tags to reduce database load.
