Captain Advance Filter

Zapis promijena

1.2.0

New filter types, WooCommerce compatibility, and Dark Mode fixes.

• Added: New “Date Picker” filter type — start/end date range filtering against the publish date.
• Added: New “Woo Rating” filter type — “N stars & up” filtering against WooCommerce's stored product average rating (requires WooCommerce).
• Added: New “Display Style” option for Checkbox and Radio filters — render the same taxonomy options as a plain List (default), pill-style Buttons, Color Swatches, or Image Swatches, instead of adding separate filter types for each. Color/Image swatches automatically pick up swatch data from common WooCommerce attribute-swatch plugin term meta, with a graceful fallback (auto-generated color, or label text) when none is set.
• Fixed: Range filter's Min/Max values were never actually sent to the results query — the values you typed had no effect. They're now correctly applied, and only sent once you actually narrow the range away from its full bounds.
• Fixed: Admin dashboard toggle switches (e.g. Settings → Enable Query Cache) used a hardcoded light-gray track color, so they still looked washed-out/white in Dark Mode instead of adapting to the theme.
• Fixed: Disabled fields (e.g. “Cache TTL” when “Enable Query Cache” is off) had no disabled styling at all — no dimming, no “not-allowed” cursor — so they looked editable even though clicking/typing did nothing.
• Fixed: The active tab indicator on Settings and Docs pages (e.g. “General” vs “Performance”) relied on a drop shadow to show which tab was selected — invisible in Dark Mode, making it unclear which tab was active. Active tabs now get a clearly visible tinted background and border in Dark Mode.
• Fixed: The divider line under toggle rows was hardcoded to a near-white color, showing as a bright white line in Dark Mode instead of a subtle divider.
• Fixed: Tab hover state in Dark Mode showed a bright white flash (inherited from the Light Mode hover style) instead of a subtle highlight.
• Fixed: Toggle row description text didn't have a Dark Mode color override.
• Fixed (frontend result cards — Classic, Minimal, Shop Card, Dark Overlay): card title, excerpt, and meta text colors were hardcoded instead of using the theme-aware card tokens, so they could become unreadable (dark text on a dark card) when a visitor's OS/browser was in Dark Mode.
• Fixed (frontend result cards): posts with no featured image rendered a completely unstyled, invisible placeholder box, making the grid look broken. Now shows a proper icon placeholder tile.
• Fixed (frontend result cards): the meta separator dot's CSS class didn't match the class actually rendered by the JS, so it was never styled.
• Fixed (frontend result cards): the card border color was set but no border width/style was ever defined, so it had no visible effect.
• Improved: Completed translation-readiness (wp.i18n) coverage across the admin dashboard — previously only partially applied to one screen, now covers every page, component, and error message.
• Improved (frontend result cards): new cards appended via Load More / Infinite Scroll now fade and rise into place instead of popping in abruptly.
• Improved (frontend result cards): general visual polish across all four card styles — refined shadows, sale badge, price layout, buttons, and Dark Overlay gradient.
• Improved: Button/Color/Image display styles track their selected state via both CSS and JS, so the highlight still works correctly on older browsers without :has() support.

Not included in this release (planned for later): a “Tabbing” category-switcher display style, and wishlist add/remove — both are on the roadmap.

1.1.0

WooCommerce-aware card styles, split filters across the page, and a mobile-friendly admin dashboard.

• Added: New “Card Style” tab in the Query editor — choose between Classic, Minimal, Shop Card (WooCommerce-aware, with price/sale badge/Add to Cart), and Dark Overlay layouts per query.
• Added: WooCommerce product data (price, sale status, Add to Cart) is now available to grid cards and custom card templates when the connected query targets Products.
• Added: {{price}}, {{sale_badge}}, and {{add_to_cart}} tokens for custom card templates.
• Added: only attribute on [captaf-filter] (and matching “Only These Filters” fields in the Elementor widget and Gutenberg block) — show just specific filter(s) from a Filter Set. Place pieces of one filter set independently anywhere on the page (e.g. a dropdown in the header, checkboxes in the sidebar) — every piece still updates the same results grid.
• Added: Filter Sets list now has a “Split into N individual shortcodes” toggle per row — expands to show each filter's own ready-made shortcode (with only= already filled in) plus a Copy button, so you don't need to remember or type filter keys by hand. The same per-filter shortcode also shows inline in the Filter Set editor, next to each filter's Label/Key fields.
• Added: Responsive mobile navigation for the admin dashboard — a hamburger menu opens an off-canvas sidebar on small screens.
• Changed: Filter Sets editor is now an inline page (matching Queries) instead of a popup modal — title swaps to “Edit Filter Set”, action button becomes “Back”.
• Fixed: Elementor widgets and Gutenberg blocks did not load their CSS/JS on the live frontend — only shortcode usage was detected before, so filters rendered unstyled and without AJAX on pages built with the Elementor widgets or Gutenberg blocks. Asset loading now also detects Gutenberg blocks and Elementor widget data correctly.
• Fixed: Plugin description referenced Bricks Builder as a supported integration without qualification. Updated to clearly state Bricks support is coming soon, matching the Builder Integrations section.
• Removed: Unused “Layouts” feature (database table, REST endpoint, and related Layout ID fields in the Elementor widget and Gutenberg block) that had no admin UI to create layouts and could never be used.
• Improved: All admin dashboard, block editor, and frontend JS strings are now translation-ready via wp.i18n.
• Improved: Deduplicated the compiled admin dashboard stylesheet, cutting its size by roughly 30% and fixing a broken CSS selector left over from a previous patch.
• Improved: Redesigned the per-filter shortcode callout to be properly theme-aware (fixes it looking broken/mismatched in dark mode) and visually clearer.
• Improved: Cleaned up redundant code in admin menu registration.
