Changelog

2.7.0

  • New: Optional playback speed button (cycles through 1x / 1.5x / 2x) – enable via global settings or shortcode attribute show_speed.
  • New: Optional heading text above the player – configurable in global settings, displayed centered, italic and in the theme’s body font. Enable via global settings or shortcode attributes show_heading / heading.
  • Fix: Player CSS was not loaded in the WordPress Site Editor (Full Site Editing / block themes), causing buttons and icons to appear unstyled.
  • Fix: Focus ring color inconsistency on the speed button.
  • Fix: Radio buttons and checkboxes in the settings page were vertically misaligned in some language installations.
  • Translations updated for German, Spanish, French and Italian.
