WP Inventory Manager 2.5.10Latest
- Security: reservation confirmation and error messages are now cleaned before they are shown. This closes a reflected cross-site scripting (XSS) issue where a crafted link could run a script in a visitor’s browser. Reported through Patchstack; thanks to pnn219.
- Fix: the translations that ship with the plugin (French, German, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, Chinese, Arabic and Hindi) load again. Since WordPress 6.7 the inventory listing, search form and reservation form showed in English whatever the site language. Translation files you keep in wp-content/languag…
- Fix: no more “Translation loading for the wpinventory domain was triggered too early” notice when debugging is on.
- Fix: on add-on screens such as Locations Activity and Advanced Search, the page title no longer runs into “WP Inventory Manager” in the header.
- Fix: short admin fields such as Quantity, Sort Order and the add-on cost and order fields are wide enough to show their whole value again.
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.9
- Updated Freemius SDK to the latest version.
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.8
- Improved: each add-on tip now names the add-on, says that add-ons run on WP Inventory Pro, and links to both the add-on and Pro.
- Improved: All Access opens a checkout linked to your site, so you come straight back to WP Inventory after paying.
- Improved: after a purchase, WP Inventory explains the next steps in plain words: install WP Inventory Pro, then any add-ons from your purchase email.
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.7
- New: short, dismissible tips on the screens where an add-on can help, such as importing a spreadsheet into an empty inventory, adding custom fields, tracking stock across locations, per-item low-stock alerts, a reservation cart and visitor search filters. Each opens the add-on’s details on the Add-…
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.6
- Security: fixed an authenticated (Contributor+) SQL injection in the sort_order attribute of the [wpinventory_categories] shortcode (CVE-2026-76005). The sort order is now checked against the list of category columns, with an optional ASC or DESC, and anything else falls back to sorting by name. Le…
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.5
- New: the Upgrade page now shows All Access beside Pro, so you can compare the two plans in one place. The Add-Ons page mentions it too.
- Fix: Advanced Search checkboxes now filter results. Previously the selections were lost on the way in and every item was returned.
- Fix: add-ons that submit grouped rows of data now receive them intact.
- Tweak: yearly prices on the Upgrade page are shown as one figure instead of a monthly breakdown.
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.4
- Security: fixed an unauthenticated SQL injection in the where shortcode attribute (CVE-2026-80470) that bypassed the 2.5.2 filter. String literals in the filter now reject backslash escapes, closing a parser mismatch that let a crafted value break out of its quotes. The where clause can also no lon…
- Fix: the “upgrade to Pro” links now point to the shop your site actually uses.
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.3
- Fix: item descriptions no longer lose their formatting when you save. The save routine read the description twice and sanitized it as plain text both times, which stripped every tag the editor produced. Both reads now keep post-safe HTML, so bold, italics, lists, links and headings survive the save…
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.2
- Security: hardened the where shortcode attribute against SQL injection (CVE-2026-17607). The filter expression is now validated against a strict allow-list of known fields, literals and comparison operators; anything else is rejected. Legitimate filters such as [wpinventory where="quantity <= 5 OR…
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.1
- Fix: if you had not yet answered the opt-in screen, links to the old add-ons and upgrade pages led to an “access denied” message. They now take you to the opt-in screen, which is what needs answering before those pages will open.
WP Inventory Manager 2.5.0
- New: refreshed admin design throughout — new colour palette, cleaner tables and lists, and tidier labels and statuses screens
- New: the Status screen now opens with an at-a-glance summary of your inventory — total items, active, categories, low stock and out of stock
- New: a Quick Actions row on the Status screen for the jobs you do most: add an item, categories, labels, display, settings
- Fix: links to the add-ons pages now open the add-ons marketplace in your dashboard instead of an “access denied” message
WP Inventory Manager 2.4.3
- New: upgrades and add-on purchases now happen directly in your WordPress dashboard, rather than sending you out to the website
- Fix: activating a second copy of WP Inventory — including WP Inventory Pro alongside the free plugin — no longer causes a fatal error; the extra copy stands down and explains why
WP Inventory Manager 2.4.2
- New: a getting-started panel now appears in place of the empty item grid when there are no inventory items yet
- New: pointers to the Import / Export and Advanced Inventory Manager add-ons on the screens where they are relevant, dismissible and hidden once the add-on is installed
- Fix: wpim_sanitize_and_decode_json() used typographic quotes and would fail if called
WP Inventory Manager 2.4.1
- New: Analytics page introducing the Inventory Analytics dashboard available with WP Inventory Pro
- Security: promo dismissal now only accepts known values, preventing unexpected entries being written to plugin settings
WP Inventory Manager 2.4.0
- Improved plugin analytics and opt-in flow via Freemius SDK
- Removed legacy registration system
WP Inventory Manager 2.3.7
- New: opt-in notice on activation to receive security updates and release notes
WP Inventory Manager 2.3.6
- Bug fixes and security improvements
