PressPilot Frontend Editor for Avada

Historique des changements

1.5.5

Everything below arrived since 1.2.6. The versions in between were never released, so this is one jump rather than twenty.

New

• Saving no longer reloads the page, and the editor tells you how it went where you are looking.
• Drafts autosave while you write, kept as WordPress revisions, so published content is never touched.
• The My Posts listing is paginated instead of stopping at one screen.
• Everyone with the same post open is warned about the others, and the warning clears itself when they leave. Someone editing in wp-admin shows up too.
• Authors hear back: an email when a post is published, and another when it is sent back for changes.
• Moderators are told whenever someone who cannot publish saves a post — every time, not only the first, since a rewrite of something already awaiting review is exactly what needs another look.
• The Settings tab can check whether mail can leave the site at all, separately from sending a test message. It names what is wrong and what fixes it, including the cases WordPress reports as success.
• Features that will need PressPilot FEE Pro later are marked from today, while they all still work, so nothing changes without warning.
• The free version covers 10 posts published from the frontend. Only posts created with the editor count, so installing on a site with hundreds of existing posts starts at zero.

Fixed

• Uninstalling now removes every option the plugin ever created, including the stored SMTP password, which previous versions left behind in the database.
• The « Go to my posts » and « Edit » buttons appeared only on sites whose pages the plugin had created. They now find those pages by the shortcode they contain.
• The Avada Builder elements register reliably, and their dropdowns are no longer empty.
• The sender address configured for SMTP is applied even when SMTP itself is not in use.
• Spanish is complete again — 365 strings — and the notification emails no longer print an escape sequence where their line breaks belong.

Under the hood

• The text domain is now the plugin slug, as WordPress.org requires. Translations submitted on translate.wordpress.org can load for the first time.
• PSR-4 autoloading, and the admin split from one 1658-line file into focused classes.

1.2.6

• Fix: after saving a pending post, non-admin users now see a success notice instead of a permissions error.
• UX: added centered moderation notice — « Your post has been submitted for review ».
• i18n: new Spanish translation strings for the pending-save success screen.

1.2.5

• Fix: language files renamed to match text domain (presspilot-frontend-editor) — Spanish translation now loads correctly.
• Fix: added ~35 missing Spanish translation strings for access settings, SMTP, moderation emails (v1.2.x features).

1.2.4

• Fix: featured image now shows existing thumbnail when editing a post.
• Fix: selecting from Media Library sets attachment by ID (no URL sideload — works on HTTP staging).
• Fix: « Remove image » button now deletes the post thumbnail on save.
• Fix: PPFE-granted roles without native upload_files capability can now upload featured images.

1.2.3

• Fix: Settings role list layout — 4-column grid (switch, name, categories, permissions).
• Fix: « Puede editar » / « Puede publicar » per-role checkboxes now save and apply correctly.

1.2.2

• Fix: category restriction now applies to both « Most used » and « All » tabs in the frontend form.

1.2.1

• Fix: categories now configured per role in Settings (not per user in profile).
• Fix: Contributor added to always-on roles.
• UI: role list redesigned with on/off switches and tag-input category selector.

1.2.0

• Feature: configurable role-based access — select which WP/UltimateMember roles can use the frontend editor (PressPilot FEE > Settings).
• Feature: per-user category restrictions — assign allowed categories per user from WP Admin > Users > edit user.
• Feature: non-admin/editor posts always go to pending for moderation regardless of selected status.
• Feature: email notification to configurable addresses when a post is submitted for moderation.
• Feature: published posts are read-only in [ppfe_my_posts] for non-admin/editor users.

1.1.0

• Compatibility: raised minimum PHP requirement to 8.0 (PHP 7.4 is EOL).
• Compatibility: raised minimum WordPress requirement to 6.4.
• Security: tightened frontend form display — requires edit_posts capability in addition to post authorship.
• Feature: administrators and editors now automatically see all posts in [ppfe_my_posts] without needing show_others=’1′.
• Feature: author name displayed per post card when viewing all posts (admin/editor view).

1.0.0

• Initial release on WordPress.org.
• Frontend create/edit form with TinyMCE, featured image, categories, tags, status and scheduled date.
• My Posts listing shortcode with capability-aware visibility.
• Avada Builder native elements for both shortcodes.
• Full nonce and capability security on all form submissions.
• Admin style panel to customise colors and spacing.
• Spanish (es_ES) translation included.
