This release fixes a handful of bugs.
-
Highlighting issues - Acrolinx couldn't highlight issues due to recent changes in the DOM structure introduced with the latest release of WordPress.
-
Get suggestion in unordered lists - Replacement is now working as expected for nested bulleted lists.
-
Plugin installation - We've fixed the issues with plugin initialization and installation.
-
Sidebar didn't load - The Sidebar initialization works again.
-
Base URL - The correct base URL is displayed.
This new version of Acrolinx for WordPress is packed with improvements. This release, we’ve enhanced how Acrolinx selects and replaces issues in the Gutenberg editor. We’ve also updated PHP versions and made the automation and logging functionalities better.
This version of Acrolinx for WordPress requires the following:
-
Acrolinx Platform version 2021.12.1 or later
-
WordPress versions 5.7, 5.8, 5.9, 6.0, 6.1
-
PHP version 8.0 or later
We've removed support for the following WordPress versions:
-
WordPress versions 4.8 – 5.6.
We've removed support for the following Acrolinx for WordPress versions:
-
Acrolinx Platform versions 1.2, 1.3, 1.4, and 1.4.1.
Over time, the Gutenberg editor and its UI have changed for the better. But this made it tricky for Acrolinx to reliably select and replace issues. We've changed that with this release! You now get new and improved highlight and selection behaviors.
Updated to PHP 8.0We've updated the minimum PHP version to 8.0. This is because support for PHP version 7.x ended in November 2022.
WordPress Score Now Updated After Automated CheckTo make it easier for writers to keep track content quality, we've improved parts of the Batch Check feature in WordPress. This replaces the Embed Check Data feature. Learn more about batch checking in WordPress!
Smoother Batch CheckingWe're excited to bring you an even smoother batch checking experience in WordPress. Now, you won't lose a whole check if a single request fails. You'll see a message about the failed check in the WordPress logs instead. The integration will then cancel the individual check, but the cancellation won't affect the rest of the files in your batch check.
Better Logging of HTTP 400 ErrorsIf Acrolinx for WordPress runs into an HTTP 400 error, you'll see it in the WordPress logs. In case you run a batch check and the UI doesn’t update with the Acrolinx Score, this makes it easier to take care of any debugging.
It's spring-cleaning time already!
We've cleaned up the code to secure and enhance Acrolinx for WordPress. Also we’re happy that the direct connection to the Scorecard is back.
Hurray for the comeback!
This version of Acrolinx for WordPress requires the following:
-
Acrolinx version 2019.11 or later
-
WordPress versions 4.9 - 5.7.x.
-
PHP 7.2 or higher
We all want Acrolinx for WordPress to be strong and safe.
With this release, we've invested in improving the underlying code to equip you with a robust Integration.
You wanted to take a closer look at your check results and eagerly opened the Scorecard but got a 403 message instead?
We fixed this small proxy issue.
Scorecard Link Opened Sign-In PageWhen connected to platform version 2019.09, the link to the Scorecard led to a sign-in page. We prefer the direct route to our Scorecard, so we’ve fixed this.
