Progress Planner

Ændringslog

1.1.0

In this release, we’ve added more recommendations from Ravi on how to improve your site. We’ve also made these recommendations more visible on your WordPress
settings pages, by showing on settings pages exactly which things we think you should change. Also, if you’re just now starting to use Progress Planner,
we’ve made the onboarding experience a lot more fun: we show you immediately which of Ravi’s recommended tasks you’ve already completed and we give
you points for those!

Added these recommendations from Ravi:

• Properly set your permalink structure.
• Fix it if your site is set to not be shown in search engines.
• Rename and change the slug of your Uncategorized category.
• Remove inactive plugins.
• Upgrade your PHP version if needed.
• Fully disable comments if they’re not needed on your site.

Bugs we fixed:

• If you had WP_DEBUG set to false, the plugin would still tell you to disable WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY. We think Ravi was a bit overzealous in his recommendation, so we’ve fixed that.

Under the hood:

• We’ve added our set of debug tools straight into the plugin. If you define PRPL_DEBUG as true in your wp-config.php file, you’ll get a PRPL Debug admin bar menu item.
• Improved suggested tasks completion conditions so they don’t trigger at the wrong moment.

1.0.4

Enhancements:

• We’ve moved Ravi’s recommendations to the top left of your Progress Planner dashboard. They’re the most important thing on there, so we wanted to give it prime placement.
• We changed “Update post” to “Review post” / “Review page” and wrote better instructions for reviewing old posts and pages. These tasks now prioritize the most important pages, like your About page, Privacy policy, Contact page and FAQ page.
• Added an option to redirect users to the Progress Planner dashboard after login. The WordPress dashboard isn’t particularly useful in our eyes, this mind entice you to action more.
• Added a plugin-deactivation feedback form (we tell you, because you’ll never see it, right? 🙂 ).
• Removed the celebration for “Perform all updates” if it was done by WordPress’s automatic update. We all love confetti, but when it comes all the time without you doing anything, it loses its value, right? Hence this fix.

We’ve added the following Recommendations from Ravi:

• Setting site icon.
• Setting the tagline.
• Deactivating the display of PHP debug messages.
• Removing the default WP “Hello world” post.
• Removing the default WP “Sample page” page.

Under the hood:

• Improvements to the REST-API endpoint for getting stats.
• Removed admin notices on the Progress Planner page.

1.0.3

Løst:

• Detection of page-types in the settings page.
• Properly resetting caches for monthly badges.

Enhancements:

• Added a new “Challenges” widget to the dashboard.

1.0.2

Løst:

• Remove duplicated weekly suggested tasks.
• The REST API endpoint for getting stats was broken, causing the weekly emails not to work.
• Scrollable monthly badges widget was the wrong height on page load.
• 2026 monthly badges were showing up and shouldn’t (yet).

Enhancements:

• Refocus the “add new task” input after a to-do item is added.

1.0.1

Løst:

• Share buttons not working on localhost sites.
• Non-translatable names for monthly badges.
• Graphs appearance.
• Confetti being triggered on every page load.
• Assets versioning.
• Duplicate update-core tasks.
• Information icon for ‘Create a long post’ task was showing text of ‘create a short post’ task.
• Numerous other minor bugfixes.

Enhancements:

• Improved the onboarding experience.
• Internal refacture of local tasks.
• Privacy policy improvements.
• Removed “product” and “blog” page-types from the settings page.
• Auto-detecting page-types in the settings page.

Løst:

• Fix the accessibility of the to-do list. Thanks to Steve Jones of Accessibility checker for the report and fix.
