Download uiXpress – Simple & Powerful Admin Theme for WordPress v1.3.0

List of improvements in uiXpress – Simple & Powerful Admin Theme for WordPress version 1.3.0

• = 1.3.0 =
• Release date date 8 July 2026 *
• Added WordPress multisite support for network-activated installs
• uiXpress configuration menu (Settings, Menu Creator, etc.) is only shown on the primary network site
• Network-managed subsites inherit settings and Menu Creator configs from the primary site
• Direct access to uiXpress admin pages on subsites redirects to the primary site
• Settings and menu writes are blocked on network-managed subsites
• Improved built-in analytics for WordPress multisite subsites
• Analytics tables are bootstrapped on frontend tracking, not only on admin visits
• User analytics dashboard counts subsite members only on multisite
• Analytics dashboard API calls always use current site data (ignores remote site switcher)
• Fixed custom base and accent theme colors not applying outside the settings page
• Theme colors are now applied as inline CSS variables on the document root, matching the settings page behaviour
• Prevents `theme.css` (loaded in the admin footer) from resetting custom color scales back to defaults on other admin pages
• Fixed style conflict with radio inputs where selected items appeared unclickable.
• Added lots of extra icons for the shortcuts icon select
• New admin framework released in beta.
• = 1.2.24 =
• Release date 3 July 2026 *
• Introduced new licence key system
• = 1.2.23 =
• Release date 25 June 2026 *
• Settings storage moved from database to file-based JSON
• Non-sensitive uiXpress settings are now stored in `{uploads}/uixpress/settings.json` instead of the `uixpress_settings` option
• Sensitive credentials remain in the database only: license key, instance ID, Google Analytics service account, Turnstile secret key, and remote site app passwords
• Existing installs are migrated automatically on upgrade; no manual action required
• If the uploads directory is unavailable or not writable, settings fall back to full database storage until file access is restored
• Menu Creator storage moved from custom post type to file-based JSON
• Custom admin menus are now stored in `{uploads}/uixpress/menus.json` instead of the `uipx-menu` post type
• Existing menus are migrated automatically on upgrade; legacy CPT posts are removed after a successful migration
• New REST API: `uixpress/v1/menus` replaces `wp/v2/uipxmenus` for Menu Creator CRUD
• Published menus are injected on admin page load, removing paginated REST fetches and the localStorage cache-key system on every admin request
• Sidebar refreshes after edits via `uixpress/v1/menus/published` when menus are saved or deleted
• Emergency fallback: menu data is mirrored to the `uixpress_menus_backup` option whenever the file is written
• Security: `{uploads}/uixpress/` is protected with `.htaccess` and `index.php`; Menu Creator CRUD requires `manage_options` with REST nonce verification; published menu reads require an authenticated session; menu item URLs and metadata are sanitized on write and on API output
• Fixed woocommerce layout / styling issues.
• Modern plugin manager: batch selection and bulk actions
• Multi-select in the installed plugins sidebar with select-all, shift-click range select, and a floating bulk action bar
• Row checkboxes are right-aligned and revealed on hover; selected plugins keep their checkbox visible
• Plugin list rows show version number with an “Update available” label when an update is pending (author removed from the list view)
• Bulk activate, deactivate, update, enable/disable auto-updates, and delete via sequential calls to existing REST endpoints
• uiXpress is protected from bulk deactivate and delete; plugins with unmet dependencies are skipped during bulk activate
• Summary notifications report success, failure, and skipped counts after each bulk operation
• Fixed layout issues on the widgets page.
• Fixed style conflicts with block editor and etch
• = 1.2.22 =
• Release date 29 April 2026 *
• Custom dashboard: dashboard tab order setting now includes per-tab visibility (show/hide); hidden tabs are excluded from the dashboard tab bar (with a fallback if all would be hidden)
• Custom dashboard: new “Dashboard post types” setting (multi-select); drives Recent content, Scheduled Content, and Recent comments. Empty selection defaults to Posts only
• Added REST endpoint `uixpress/v1/dashboard-comments` to return comments filtered by selected post types for the dashboard Recent comments card
