We are excited to release version 2.8.0, which includes multiple bug fixes and improvements. Please find the details below:

Improved Debugger

persistent-freemius-debugger

The Freemius SDK has a built-in debugger that, when enabled, stores all logs in the local WordPress database. We've received reports that users sometimes forget to disable it, causing the storage size to grow. To prevent this, we now automatically disable the debugger 24 hours after it is turned on.

auto-off-debugger

Please note: this feature will only function if the WordPress instance has cron jobs enabled.

Improved Update Mechanism

We noticed a regression in the latest version of WordPress where updating a premium plugin via the plugin information dialog was not functioning correctly. This issue has now been resolved.

freemius-upgrade-dialog

Additionally, we fixed a case where a premium-only plugin mistakenly fetched data from WordPress.org. This issue could occur if the plugin shared the same slug as another WordPress.org plugin.

Other Bug Fixes and Improvements

  • Enhanced overall PHP 8.2 compatibility.
  • Removed unused styles and fixed various CSS glitches.
  • Added empty index.php files to directories that were missing them.
  • Modified the pricing_url filter to also change the pricing/upgrade submenu item.
  • Added URLs from wpengine, instawp, and 10web to the supported list of staging sites.
