What changed in this version
Version 1.5.2
- Updated the internal plugin update checker.
- Tested up to WP 7.0.3.
Version 1.5.1
- Fixed a fatal error when saving settings on the "Easy Hide" page in Admin Menu Editor Pro. The error was: "Uncaught TypeError: count: Argument #1 ($value) must be of type Countable|array, null given". The error only happened if the Toolbar configuration contained any detected front-end items.
- Fixed inability to change Toolbar item visibility through the "Easy Hide" screen. It was possible to un-hide an item that was previously completely hidden, but most other changes - like hiding an item from one specific role - would not be saved.
- Tested up to WP 6.5.3.
Version 1.5
- Added the ability to customize Toolbar items that only appear on certain pages. For example, this includes items that show up in the site frontend but don't show up in the admin dashboard. When you visit a page that has an item like that (while logged in as an admin), Toolbar Editor will automatically remember the item, and display it the next time you open the editor.
- In the editor, items that are not present on the current admin page are marked with a special icon that looks like a "-" sign in a circle.
- If you uninstall a plugin or theme that creates items like that, you'll have to remove the items from Toolbar Editor manually. Toolbar Editor doesn't "know" when the items are supposed to show up, so it isn't able to automatically determine if they're actually gone or just not showing up on some pages.
Version 1.4.3
- Renamed the plugin to "AME Toolbar Editor" to make it more consistent with the other add-on, "AME Branding Add-on".
- Moved the "Toolbar Editor" menu item under the main "Menu Editor Pro" item. This only affects sites that don't already have a custom admin menu configuration.
- Fixed a JavaScript deprecation warning regarding jQuery.isArray.
- Tested with WP 6.4.2.
Version 1.4.2
- Minimum required PHP version increased to PHP 5.6.
- Toolbar items will now appear in the "Easy Hide" page that's part of Admin Menu Editor Pro.
- Updated the Knockout JS library version to 3.5.1.
- Tested up to WP 6.1.1.
