  1. SimpLy Gallery 3.4.5Latest

    • Security: Enforced folder ownership and WordPress capabilities when editing, deleting, duplicating, or changing folder contents, with additional permission checks for ZIP access and shared tag removal.
    • Added: Ownership indicators for users with limited permissions, highlighting their media files and folder counters in the Assistant and Media Library.
