GD bbPress Toolbox Pro 5.4

GD bbPress Toolbox Pro 5.4 is a smaller release, but very important, focused on improving and expanding widgets, with major changes and fixes related to spelling and translations.

This version was not planned for the release until October. But, the number of features related to widgets grew, and I decided to split the list of features in two, and this 5.4 version is mostly widgets related, and in late October there will be 5.5 version focused on attachments. Version 5.4 includes changes to all the included widgets and many new features and improvements for all widgets. And, it includes a lot of important fixes for spelling and translation strings formatting.

Widgets added by the plugin are long due for the overhaul. Now, we use SCSS file for better styling control, and other parts of the plugin will also use SCSS in the upcoming versions. Most widgets now have an option to select the template for displaying the widget on the front end. And, for many widgets, there are two templates included. Some templates have been changed to include consistent styling and class names.

This version fixes more than 20 spelling errors, it improves the settings and wizard information and explanations, and makes a lot of changes to the translation forms related to use of plurals.

Let me know what you think about the new update, and please, report any issues if you find them.
