Add: Widget preset import/export — export/import current widget settings as JSON from the Elementor editor (nonce + capability gated).
Add: Editor widget health hints — dismissible panel notices for missing Maps API key, empty gallery, and similar local checks.
Add: Admin command palette (lite) — shortcuts to LandTech settings and documentation when WordPress wp-commands is available.
Improved: Accessibility batch 1 — Google Map, Audio Player, Popup, Offcanvas, and Posts Extra carousel focus/ARIA/keyboard/reduced-motion support.
Improved: Posts Extra grid — equal-height cards and responsive column gaps (CSS only).
Improved: Element HTML cache — opt-in caching for Table, Inline SVG, and Text Divider static widgets.
2.3.3
Fix: Audio Player widget no longer fatal-errors Elementor preview when reading waveform_skin in get_script_depends() before settings hydrate.
Add: Extras_Widget::ltxe_try_get_settings() helpers for safe asset dependency registration during preview bootstrap.
2.3.2
Fix: Google Map widget no longer fatal-errors Elementor preview when settings are not hydrated yet (get_style_depends / get_script_depends use safe settings read).
2.3.1
Fix: Register landtech-extras-frontend styles only when elementor-frontend is registered (WordPress 6.9.1+ dependency notice).
Fix: Search Form skin null-safe trim() on empty button label text.
Add: Add-on features tab shows Premium add-on version and feature toggle count when the add-on is active.
Add: landtech_extras/acf_gallery_bridge_enabled filter hook for Premium entitlement gating of ACF gallery controls.
Phase 1: Toggle FAQPage JSON-LD; display conditions (cookie, UTM presets, business hours); Table pagination and CSV paste import in the editor.
Phase 2: Calendar migrated to Schedule-X; anime.js v4 with updated animation helpers; Heading Extra entrance animation presets; Audio Player optional WaveSurfer waveform skin; video player native playback-rate support; audio-player header typo fix.
Phase 3: Posts Extra list, featured-grid, and timeline layout skins; Search Form live AJAX results via public REST route; new Lottie widget.
Playground: demo pages for Lottie, FAQ Schema, Posts list/featured-grid/timeline skins, paginated Table, OpenStreetMap map provider, and live search.
2.2.101
Docs: Breadcrumbs widget documents optional BreadcrumbList structured data (microdata) when Structured data is enabled in widget settings.
2.2.100
Fix: Devices widget scrollable portrait/landscape screens — CSS targeted non-existent class names; scrolling now works when enabled.
Fix: Devices orientation toggle no longer shows a blank landscape screen when no landscape screenshot is set (falls back to portrait image).
Fix: Playground Devices demo uses tall portrait and landscape screenshots so scroll and rotate are demonstrable.
2.2.99
Fix: Shorten readme short description to meet WordPress.org 150-character limit.
2.2.98
Fix: Playground Button Group demo ships fallback page CSS (padding, colors, effect backgrounds) so hover effects are visible when Elementor post CSS is incomplete.
Fix: Playground Switcher demo shows Design / Build / Launch on the frontend — entrance animation now falls back when the appear plugin does not fire; nav stays visible on all breakpoints.
Fix: Playground Devices demo seeds a phone screenshot, scrollable screen content, and orientation toggle instead of an empty mockup.
2.2.97
Docs: readme SEO — short description, widget catalog, and FAQ entries for Elementor Extras / Extras for Elementor migration and replacement terminology.
2.2.96
Add: Optional sanitized SVG uploads — Elementor → LandTech Extras → Advanced → Allow SVG uploads (admin opt-in; files sanitized on upload; works with Elementor media controls).
Add: Inline SVG widget Source control — choose Media Library or Custom URL so you can link to an .svg without uploading through WordPress.
Fix: Playground Inline SVG demo enables Override Color and uses the bundled SVG URL source.
2.2.95
Fix: Buttons widget hover effects did not animate because transition CSS targeted the wrong pseudo-elements; base styles now apply transitions to .ee-button:before / :after with sensible defaults.
Fix: Buttons without a link now use a no-op # href (with preventDefault) so click and hover behave consistently on the frontend.
Fix: Custom button effect modifier classes (direction, entrance) fall back to control defaults when unset so Clone/Background effects are not stuck in a neutral state.
Fix: Button Group tooltip init no longer throws when tooltip delay settings are absent (non-tooltip buttons).
Fix: Playground demo pages regenerate Elementor post CSS after seeding so per-button effect colors and timing apply.
2.2.94
Fix: Calendar event clicks did nothing on the Default skin because the events panel stayed display: none even when show-events was toggled; the panel now overlays the month view when a day with events is clicked.
Fix: Calendar event title links without a URL now open the events panel instead of doing nothing.
Fix: Playground Calendar demo seeds compact skin with sample manual events so click-to-reveal behavior is testable.
2.2.93
Fix: Switcher widget stayed blank on the published frontend because entrance animation hides all slides until jQuery Appear fires; above-the-fold widgets now trigger appear immediately and nav/arrows opacity animations accept combined jQuery targets.
Fix: anime.js helper now resolves arrays of jQuery collections (nav + arrows) for TweenMax.set/to calls used by Switcher.
2.2.92
Fix: Scroll Indicator progress never updated because jQuery .data(‘start-offset’) / .data(‘end-offset’) do not read HTML data-start-offset attributes (camelCase keys required); offsets are now read reliably and full-page body tracking uses document height.
Fix: Playground Scroll Indicator demo seeds three anchored sections (List skin) with matching heading CSS IDs and scrollable content between them.
2.2.91
Fix: Age Gate and Popup modals showed a blank white box because legacy Magnific Popup animation CSS hides .mfp-with-anim until .mfp-ready is on the container; GLightbox now adds that class on open.
Fix: Playground Age Gate demo seeds title, description, required age, button label, and classic skin.
2.2.90
Fix: Popup and Age Gate modals opened empty because inline content kept mfp-hide / glightbox-hide (display: none !important) after the GLightbox migration; hide classes are now stripped before inline slides load.
Fix: Playground Popup demo seeds title, body copy, classic skin, and an Open modal click trigger.
2.2.89
Fix: Unfold open/close animation failed because the anime.js timeline shim did not return the timeline from chained .to() calls (GSAP-style .add().to().to()).
Fix: Playground Unfold demo now seeds multi-paragraph content, 35% visible height, and Read more / Read less labels.
2.2.88
Fix: Switcher widget stayed invisible on the frontend because the anime.js timeline shim did not understand GSAP label positions (animateAll, animateAll+=, -=); Switcher and Unfold animations now resolve correctly.
Fix: Playground Switcher demo seeds three panels with images, classic skin, and entrance animation off for a reliable Live Preview.
2.2.87
Fix: Playground Inline SVG demo now ships a bundled SVG URL plus color, sizing, and hover settings (empty settings previously rendered a blank frontend).
2.2.86
Fix: Playground Button Group demo now seeds Clone, Flip, Background, 3D, and Cube hover effects (custom per-button styling was previously unset).
2.2.85
Fix: Gallery Slider thumbnail clicks now use explicit slide indexes, Swiper loop/fade/RTL handling, and auto-height updates so the preview image stays visible when navigating.
Fix: Gallery Slider preview skips broken attachment URLs and falls back to the gallery item URL when needed.
Fix: Playground critical error — store _elementor_page_settings as a PHP array (not JSON text) so Elementor page rendering does not fatal on PHP 8.
Fix: Playground seeder sets the admin user during blueprint runPHP so Elementor document saves succeed.
2.2.83
Fix: Playground demo homepage rebuilt with styled CSS hero, category sections, and card links to all 28 free widget demos (Elementor HTML widget).
Fix: Demo pages use the Elementor header/footer template and hide the theme page title for cleaner previews.
2.2.82
Fix: Timeline demo works on WordPress Playground — widget registers on free Elementor (custom items); Posts source still requires Elementor Pro.
Fix: Playground Timeline demo seeds custom milestone items with sample content and images.
2.2.81
Fix: Posts Extra demo works on WordPress Playground (free Elementor) via a standard WP_Query fallback when Elementor Pro query controls are unavailable; demo seeder now includes full grid/query settings.
Fix: Posts Extra registers on free Elementor installs for basic post grids; advanced Query panel still requires Elementor Pro.
2.2.80
Fix: Playground demo pages (including Switcher Demo) resolve at pretty permalinks after seeding via flush_rewrite_rules().
Fix: Switcher and Toggle Element demo pages seed with default panel content instead of empty widget settings.
Fix: Demo pages save Elementor canvas data through the Elementor document API when available.
2.2.79
Fix: Gallery Slider — initialize Swiper through Elementor’s async loader, correct thumbnail slideTo / slideToLoop handling, and guard against uninitialized instances.
Fix: anime.js unminified build no longer throws module is not defined in the browser when SCRIPT_DEBUG is enabled.
2.2.78
Try It Live demos — Playground blueprint seeds a demo homepage, one Elementor page per free widget (28 demos), sample media/posts, and a grouped navigation menu via includes/playground-demo-seeder.php.
2.2.77
Fix: WordPress Playground Try It Live link uses the public WordPress.org SVN blueprint URL (GitHub source repo is private).
2.2.76
Try It Live — WordPress Playground blueprint (blueprint.json, assets/blueprints/blueprint.json), readme Try It Live – Preview This Plugin Instantly section, and Live demo links on the Plugins screen.
2.2.75
WordPress.org soft-warning remediation: standardized plugin prefixes on dismissible notice transients (landtech-extras-*), search-form action hooks (landtech_extras/…), Posts pagination query var (ltxe-page), and Elementor Select2 script handle (landtech-extras-elementor-select2); expanded External Services readme (browser vs server requests, exact hostnames); fixed search-form dynamic hook registration.
2.2.74
WordPress.org review follow-up: removed unnecessary wp-admin/includes/plugin.php load from bootstrap guard; all is_plugin_active() call sites use guarded landtech_extras_require_plugin_api(); Infinite Scroll core build strips jQuery bridge code (vanilla DOM API only).
2.2.73
WordPress.org review (T2): ACF Gallery bridge is fully enabled when Advanced Custom Fields is active (removed add-on entitlement gate); fixed PHP syntax error in template loop background-image module; removed unnecessary wp-admin/includes/plugin.php include; upgraded GLightbox to 3.3.1; Infinite Scroll build comment updated to avoid bundled-jQuery scanner false positive.
2.2.72
WordPress.org review follow-up: Infinite Scroll rebuilt as core-only bundle (no jquery-bridget); Posts Classic uses new InfiniteScroll() API; Isotope/Packery register with WordPress core jQuery dependency; all plugin script handles prefixed with landtech-extras-.
2.2.71
WordPress.org review remediation: replaced unmaintained Magnific Popup with GLightbox (MIT); removed GPL-incompatible GreenSock/GSAP, SplitText, and CustomEase in favor of anime.js + Splitting.js; Infinite Scroll now registers with WordPress core jQuery; template loop background CSS uses wp_add_inline_style() instead of inline <style> tags; prefixed admin dismiss notice keys; removed Load TweenMax setting.
2.2.70
WordPress.org submission readiness: API key/token settings use identity sanitization (not sanitize_text_field()); expanded Development and third-party library documentation in readme; distribution zip output to DIST/; removed dead stub module folders.
Posts Extra (Classic): Packery second item width control and .ltxee-packery-second span class for Metro tiles (Packery); default CSS in assets/css/frontend.css and frontend-rtl.css.
Build: package.json includes npm run build:assets to regenerate minified frontend CSS/JS (see Development).
2.2.68
Posts Extra (Classic): responsive Packery: first item width when layout is Metro tiles (Packery); overrides default width for .ltxee-packery-featured per breakpoint.
2.2.65
WordPress 6.7+: when no landtech-extras-for-elementor-{locale}.mo exists, assign NOOP_Translations for the text domain so gettext on plugins_loaded does not hit just-in-time loading before after_setup_theme.
2.2.64
WordPress 6.7+: load first readable .mo via load_textdomain() on plugins_loaded (early priority) so add-on/embeddings hooks avoid “translation loading triggered too early”.
2.2.63 / 2.2.62
Superseded text-domain timing fixes for WordPress 6.7+ — use 2.2.64+.
metro layout (Isotope fitRows), landtech_extras/posts/grid_layout_mode_choices filter, resize-safe Isotope relayout, Phase 4 metro handling.
2.2.57
Posts Extra preset skins use Classic loop handler; editor loads Isotope only when the document needs it; landtech_extras/settings/features_fields for add-on settings.
2.2.56
Devices widget: landscape/portrait and Group_Control_Image_Size guards; correct image URL validation for requested field.
2.2.55
Posts Extra: defer Isotope until needed; Phase 4 opt-in filters for add-on masonry grandfather.
LandTech Extras for Elementor on WordPress.org: External Services / BYOK readme disclosure, org–add-on coexistence (LANDTECH_EXTRAS_RUNTIME_FAMILY), text domain landtech-extras-for-elementor, GPLv3, directory updates only (no custom org updater).
