Lightweight Cookie Notice 1.22Latest
- November 7, 2026
- Improved the loading speed of the “Categories” menu on sites with many consent log records.
- Updated the admin UI color palette to use branded colors instead of the default WordPress colors.
- Added a custom admin footer in place of the default WordPress footer text.
- Added a notices manager class used to display documentation resources and a link to rate the plugin.
- Fixed a fatal error that occurred when the Pro version was activated while the Free version was active.
- Fixed an issue where the “Shake Effect” option could not be saved.
- Fixed the anonymization of IPv6 addresses stored in the consent log.
- Fixed an issue where the “Three Months” value of the “Cookie Expiration” option set a cookie lifetime of about 104 days instead of 90 days.
- Removed the unused “cookies”, “delete-cookies”, and “revisit-consent” shortcodes, which could conflict with other plugins using the same shortcode names.
- Fixed an issue where the export of the “Tools” menu failed on sites with a large consent log.
- Improved the loading speed of the “Consent Log” menu, which now paginates the records on the server and allows browsing all the consent log records.
- Removed the “Consent Log Records” option, no longer necessary since all the consent log records can now be browsed in the “Consent Log” menu.
- Added the “Consent Log Retention” option, used to automatically delete the consent log records older than the selected period.
- Added the “Include the consent log records” toggle to the export of the “Tools” menu, used to generate a smaller file without the consent log records.
- Fixed an issue where clicking the label of a toggle field did not change the toggle.
