New Features

  • Added automatic redirection to the Optimazz settings page after first activation.
  • Added a centralized page-builder compatibility registry for Elementor, Divi, Bricks, Beaver Builder, Oxygen, WPBakery, and Swiper-based widgets.
  • Added the optimazz_css_default_exclusions filter to customize default CSS exclusions.
  • Added the optimazz_compat_profiles filter to extend or customize page-builder compatibility profiles.

Improved

  • Improved Elementor compatibility by excluding generated CSS files from CSS minification and combination while keeping Elementor’s static library CSS eligible for optimization.
  • Improved page-builder compatibility by protecting generated layout styles and essential carousel initialization scripts from optimization conflicts.
  • Improved server requirements detection with more reliable GD and Imagick checks.
  • Improved image-library diagnostics by displaying the active PHP version and relevant php.ini path.
  • Improved server requirements status indicators to distinguish optional image libraries from missing requirements.

Fixed

  • Fixed potential Elementor header, footer, and page layout issues caused by CSS minification or combination.
  • Fixed incomplete GD and Imagick detection on hosting environments with different PHP versions or handlers.
  • Fixed confusing status indicators for optional image libraries when another available library already handles image processing.
  • Fixed the extra navigation step required to access Optimazz settings after initial activation.
