Progress Bar 2.1
- fixed an issue where wppb_animate.js was breaking the responsiveness of the fullwidth option. Resolved by not using the animation when fullwidth is being used.
- added number formatting on fraction-based output. ultimately resolves an issue where a comma in the number breaks the formatting. Numbers larger than 1,000 need to be entered in with no comma (e.g. 1000), but will output with the correct number i18n (e.g. 1,000).

20125 releases
Progress Bar 1.0.4
- added ability to show progress like 50/100 thanks to pull request from RavanH https://github.com/jazzsequence/progress-bar/pull/1
Progress Bar 1.0.3
- added fullwidth parameter thanks to callingmedic911 — this allows the progress bar to have a variable width based on the width of the containing div (not exactly responsive, as suggested here, but it allows the progress bar to be used in sidebars or to take up the full width of the post content are…
Progress Bar 1.0.2
- fixes it so either ‘candystripe’ (singular) or ‘candystripes’ (plural) works for candystripes (documentation said singular, code said plural) — resolves: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-progress-bar-wheres-the-canystripe (thanks to dgodfather for pointing this out)
Progress Bar 1.0.1
- added “red” as an optional parameter (can go nuts with colors here, but don’t really want to do that yet since it’s just going to add a lot of unused CSS to the stylesheet) | usage [wppb progress=50 option=red]
- added new parameter $percent | usage [wppb progress=50 percent=after] — this will display the percentage after the progress bar; [wppb progress=50 percent=inside] — this will display the percentage on the actual bar itself
