New widgets
There are 4 new widgets:
- Related Posts,
- Posts Authors,
- Author Information and
- LinkedIn Member Profile.
Related Posts widget will display one or more posts related to posts currently displayed. There are few criteria used to filter the related posts including taxonomies terms, keywords from post title and existence of the thumbnail.
Posts Authors and Author Information can display the list of authors or single author profile information. Posts Authors widget can filter authors based on post types, include/exclude selected authors, the number of posts they have.
LinkedIn Member Profile is the official LinkedIn implementation that can’t be much customized, but it is useful to display your (or any other user) LinkedIn profile and connections.
Updates and fixes
Enhanced Posts widget has a new option to filter posts by authors (include or exclude authors). The QR Code library is updated, and the same goes for other third party libraries used in JavaScript. JavaScript files are all minified only, no longer packed. There are some minor changes to the admin interface and few fixes.
