    1.1.0<\/h4>\n\n
      \n
    • Security: Added nonce and capability checks to the member type save handler.<\/li>\n
    • Security: The dismiss endpoint now confirms the submitted ID is a real published notice before storing it.<\/li>\n
    • Security: Escaping corrections in the notice markup and the admin member type list.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: Notices hidden for a member type could still show to members holding more than one member type.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: Draft, pending and scheduled notices were displayed on the activity feed to every visitor.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: Quick Edit, bulk edit and autosave no longer wipe a notice's \"Hide for Member Types\" selection.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: The \"Hide for Member Types\" boxes did not load their saved values in every edit context.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: The member type checkboxes were hidden on sites with exactly one member type.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: Logged out visitors could not dismiss a notice at all. Their choice is now remembered in a cookie for a year.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: Notices never appeared on template packs that render the first page of the feed server-side.<\/li>\n
    • Fix: Embedded content such as iframes no longer disappears from notices written by administrators who are allowed to use it.<\/li>\n
    • Accessibility: The dismiss control is now a real button, so it can be reached with the Tab key and activated with Enter or Space, and it exposes a proper label to screen readers.<\/li>\n
    • Accessibility: Dismissing a notice is announced through a polite live region, and keyboard focus moves to the next notice instead of being lost.<\/li>\n
    • Change: Notices are no longer public posts. They have no front-end URL, archive or rewrite rules, since they only ever render inside the feed.<\/li>\n
    • Change: The stylesheet and script now load only on the activity directory instead of on every page.<\/li>\n
    • Change: An admin notice now explains that the plugin is idle when neither BuddyPress nor BuddyBoss Platform is active, instead of failing silently.<\/li>\n
    • Change: Admin-only code no longer loads on the front end, and both classes now use a single shared instance.<\/li>\n
    • Change: Deleting the plugin now removes its notices, post meta, per member dismissal lists and options, on every site of a network.<\/li>\n
