What’s New in WP Delicious v1.7.4
WP Delicious v1.7.4 introduces global currency settings, improved image cropping, a “Scroll to Comment” feature, and key bug fixes for better performance and user experience.
1. Set Default Currency Globally
Admins can now set a default currency globally for all recipes, overriding the individual currency setting in each recipe.
Global currency setting can be found in WP Delicious > Settings > Recipe Settings > Recipe Post.
2. Optimize Image Cropping
We’ve reduced the number of image crop sizes to 4, minimizing unnecessary image generation and improving overall performance.
3. Scroll to Comment
Previously available only in the pro version, this feature is now available in both free and pro versions.
How it works: Clicking the rating in the recipe header will scroll users to the comment section.
4. Bug Fixes
We’ve also resolved several key issues to enhance functionality and user experience:
- Recipe by Taxonomy Block: Resolved the “Undefined variable $recipeType” error.
- CSS Issue on Index Page: Fixed pagination spacing issues on the index page for better visual consistency.
- JavaScript Fixes: Addressed the JavaScript issue caused by disabling the “Enable Rating” setting.
- Double Comment Form: Resolved the problem of two comment forms displaying when the “Enable Elementor Support” option is activated.
- “Delicious: Recipe Categories” Widget: Fixed the issue of the “Delicious: Recipe Categories” widget where selecting the “Show as dropdown” option did not correctly redirect to the designated category or taxonomy page.
- Carousel Mobile Responsiveness: Improved mobile responsiveness for carousels on template and single recipe pages.
- Recipe Colors: Ensured that primary and secondary colors set in the plugin were applied across all relevant pages, including the Equipment page created with the [dr_recipe_equipments] shortcode.
- Recipe Archive Infinite Pagination: The ‘infinite’ pagination option on recipe archive pages now functions properly.
- Theme Compatibility: Enhanced theme compatibility on major themes to resolve design issues on the recipe index, template pages, and single recipe pages.
- Elementor Support: Resolved responsiveness issues with Elementor templates and design problems that occurred when the “Enable Elementor Support” option was activated.
- Best Season Filter: The search page ‘Best Season’ filter now displays all custom seasons in addition to the default ones.
What’s New in WP Delicious Pro v2.2.2
WP Delicious Pro v2.2.2 offers enhanced recipe submissions, mandatory license activation, improved schema handling, and key bug fixes for a better user experience.
1. Enhanced Recipe Submission
The Recipe Submission feature in WP Delicious Pro gets a major boost!
- Now, admins have greater flexibility over recipe submissions with a fully revamped Customize Recipe Fields option.
- This update moves field customization to a new page, allowing more control to enable or disable individual fields within sections and rearrange their order.
- Each field now has a required checkbox option to ensure critical data isn’t skipped.
- Plus, a live preview feature now reflects changes in real-time, making it simple to manage which fields appear on the front end.
2. License Activation Mandatory
WP Delicious Pro features now require license activation. Pro features will remain disabled until a valid license is activated.
In addition, the license key settings for WP Delicious Pro have moved from the main settings menu to the “License” tab in global settings.
3. Addressing the Schema Issue
The Google Rich Results Test no longer displays the “invalid object type for aggregateRating” error when no ratings are present on the recipe page.
Instead, it now displays a “Missing Fields aggregateRating (optional)” warning.
4. Bug Fixes
We’ve delivered key fixes to improve the layout and user experience on recipe and equipment pages:
- Autoload Issues on Recipe Pages: Fixed missing reviews, lightbox errors, and repeated exit intent pop-ups on recipe pages.
- Equipment Page Design: Fixed initial load design issues on the equipment page in the list layout.
