  1. Modular DS 3.4.0Latest

    • Release date: 2026-10-13
    • New cache clearing support for SiteGround Optimizer, xSpeed Cache (xCloud), WP-Optimize, Hummingbird, Cache Enabler, Autoptimize and Nginx Helper
    • Improved cache clearing for Varnish, WP Fastest Cache and Breeze
    • Improved hosting compatibility: the managed hosting provider is now detected and reported
    • Improved background task execution on WP Engine
    • Improved malware database scan: large rows are sent in smaller batches, and when Imunify stops a scan the reason is now reported
    • FIXED: Database malware scan failing to start on sites with an empty table prefix
    • FIXED: Background tasks failing forever when the plugin’s own database tables went missing (e.g. after a site migration); they are now recreated automatically
    • FIXED: Fatal error that could lock users out of wp-admin right after activating the plugin when a cache file was damaged
    • FIXED: Authorization header health check reporting the header as missing on most sites
    • FIXED: Cache not cleared with NitroPack, and only partially with WP Super Cache
    • FIXED: Must-Use and Drop-ins tabs hidden in the WordPress plugins screen

  2. Modular DS 3.3.0

    • Release date: 2026-09-04
    • Improved malware scan reliability: when Imunify is overloaded or under maintenance the scan now waits and resumes where it left off instead of failing, and an exhausted quota is reported with its renewal details
    • Improved malware scan coverage: more executable and web-served file types (php3, php4, php5, php7, phps, inc, svg), symlinked plugins and files, and database tables with a text primary key (e.g. Wordfence)
    • Improved malware scan results and progress: file counts now come from Imunify’s own summary, files that could not be analysed are reported as unknown instead of clean, and progress no longer stalls near 30% on mostly clean sites
    • Improved malware scan memory usage on slow hosts, sharing the file enumeration with the backup system
    • Improved storage layout: logs, cache and the backup and scan working files are now kept together under modular_storage, in folders named per site, with automatic cleanup of the old locations
    • FIXED: Per-area file exclusions (plugins, themes, uploads, etc.) ignored by the malware scan
    • FIXED: Database backups failing on hosts whose database serves TLS with a self-signed certificate, or when the connection dropped while dumping a table below the large-table threshold
    • FIXED: WordPress version reported incorrectly on hosts that hide it (e.g. GridPane)

  3. Modular DS 3.2.1

    • Release date: 2026-08-10
    • FIXED: Database backups failing on hosts pairing a MySQL 8 server with an older or MariaDB dump tool
    • FIXED: Database backups failing on hosts where the dump tool could not connect through the local database socket

  4. Modular DS 3.2.0

    • Release date: 2026-08-07
    • New resumable database backups: large databases are now dumped table by table over several passes, so a dump interrupted by a slow disk or a hosting timeout resumes where it left off, with accurate progress from the first pass
    • Improved MariaDB support: servers running 10.5 or newer are now dumped with mariadb-dump, and their version is reported correctly
    • Improved malware scan: findings now include the detected signature and threat type, and the files requested by the scanner are uploaded in batches
    • FIXED: Database malware threats under-reported on sites with many detections
    • FIXED: Backups failing on databases containing very large rows, stalling on slow disks, or using more database connections than the host allows
    • FIXED: Background tasks running out of memory mid-process, and hosting memory limit reported incorrectly

  5. Modular DS 3.1.0

    • Release date: 2026-07-30
    • Improved premium plugin and theme update detection with new compatibility for ThemeREX (Qwery theme, ThemeREX Addons), PixelYourSite and SeedProd Pro
    • Improved malware scanner: partial results are now delivered when a scan fails, and sensitive database content is excluded from scans
    • FIXED: Incorrect results in the background updates health check
    • FIXED: Updates still shown as pending right after being successfully applied (e.g. Elementor Pro)
    • FIXED: Duplicator Lite local backups are now excluded from backups
