How These Enhancements Can Streamline Your WP Project Manager Experiences
Let's now discuss how these enhancements can streamline your WP Project Manager experiences and why you should update your plugins right away.
1. Effortless Task Duplication for Faster Workflows
As you can now duplicate the main tasks along with subtasks with just a few clicks, this can save you a lot of time and reduce repetitive efforts. It's ideal for those who regularly have to reuse similar task setups because they no longer have to start everything from scratch.
2. Enhanced Security for SVG File Uploads
Security is at the core of this update, particularly in handling SVG uploads. As SVG files are XML-based and can contain scripts. This makes them vulnerable to cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks. The new version always sanitizes SVG files whenever you upload them.
Besides, we have fixed the vulnerable security issues raised in the free version so even non-premium users can have a hassle-free experience.
3. Cleaner Invoicing Process
Whenever customers complete the invoice, the ‘Enter Payment' button automatically hides. This ensures the purchase and invoice have successfully been completed. Previously, the button wouldn't be automatically hidden.
As a result, some users get confused and think the purchase is incomplete, resulting in accidental duplicate purchases. The new update resolves the issue and purchase process. Learn how to create project invoices with the WP Project Manager.
4. Enhanced Compatibility with BuddyBoss
We’ve updated an outdated method to keep everything running smoothly with the latest version of the BuddyBoss plugin. As a result, those who rely on BuddyBoss for social networking within their project management experience seamless integration without any technical issues.
5. Improved Notifications for Task Comments
Fixing the email notification template ensures that team members receive consistent and easy-to-read alerts. This helps everyone stay on top of discussions without missing any important updates. As a result, communication with the team becomes flexible and more effective.
6. Polished Interface with Minor Tweaks
As said before, the latest update has covered some minor tweaks in the interface to enhance user experience so users feel more confident in operating the tool.
