AI Shared System Prompt: Set a single system prompt that applies across all AI features (text generation, alt text, image creation, and image editing) so every AI output follows your brand voice or instructions.Added
AI Alt Text Language Selector: Generate alt text in the language you need: French, Spanish, German, or any other. Configure this directly from the AI settings.Added
Bricks Image Compare Draggable Slider: The Image Compare element now features a fully draggable slider with horizontal and vertical layouts, and works correctly inside query loops and components.Added
SVG Image Converter Icon Support: Convert Bricks Icon elements (from the SVG library) to Image elements and back, giving you more flexibility when switching between icon and image formats.Added
Short Links Bulk Operations: Clearing all short links and clicks is now significantly faster using optimized direct database queries, and the interface labels have been standardized for consistency.Changed
Options Registry Centralized: Internal settings handling has been streamlined for better reliability when saving and retrieving plugin options.Changed
Folder Manager Upload Handling: Media folder assignment logic has been simplified and made more consistent, reducing edge cases during file uploads.Changed
Improved Modals Scrolling & Layout: Modals adapt cleanly to fit different screen sizes with flexible scrolling inside the modal window, and prevent the background page from scrolling while a modal is open.Improved
Short Links CSV Import & Export: CSV import now features a clean drag-and-drop file upload area with file removal, and export is safely capped to prevent server memory issues on large sites.Improved
Secure Downloads User Experience: Streamlined loading styles and cleaned up redundant success notices for a cleaner, smoother file download experience.Improved

IP Whitelist and Detection: IP whitelists now support address ranges (CIDR notation like `192.168.1.0/24`) and more accurately detect visitor IPs behind proxies, so password-protected sites correctly bypass protection for whitelisted addresses.Improved

WooCommerce Direct Checkout Query Loss: Coupon codes, UTM parameters, and affiliate IDs in the URL are now preserved when customers are redirected to checkout after adding a product to cart.Fixed
Media Library Selection Persistence: Moving files between folders no longer accidentally carries over your previous selection, so subsequent moves only affect the items you actually picked.Fixed
Media Folder Sidebar Disappearing: The folder sidebar now stays visible when switching between tabs (Upload, Media Library) in the media modal.Fixed
Inspect Element Guard on Mobile: The Disable Inspect Element feature no longer causes pages to go blank on iPhones and Android devices.Fixed

Textarea Settings Newline Preservation: Multi-line settings (like custom code or text blocks) no longer lose their line breaks when saved.Fixed
Media Upload Failure with Folders: Fixed an issue where uploading new media files could fail entirely when the Folder Manager was active.Fixed
