2.5.0July 19, 2026
Lite
  • Added:HTML Builder widgets system with Structure and Widgets tabs, click-to-insert and drag-and-drop placement (before, inside, after).
  • Added:Core widgets for heading, paragraph, image, featured image, button, close button, list, countdown, divider, and spacer, marked with `data-notifal-widget` for builder detection.
  • Added:Structure-tree drag and drop to reorder or nest elements, with Elementor-style insertion lines and an Inside nest indicator.
  • Added:Delete and Backspace remove the selected Structure element (same as right-click Remove).
  • Added:Action Button Content settings in HTML Builder for Notifal action types (copy, Ajax add to cart, custom trigger, and more).
  • Added:Spacer height and countdown layout controls in the Style panel, plus flex Items controls for layout containers.
  • Improved:Style panel reads solid backgrounds from the `background` shorthand, and choosing a background color replaces CSS gradients with a solid color.
  • Improved:Typography (including text color) is available on layout containers that contain direct text, and paragraphs with nested inline tags (such as strong) remain editable in Content.
  • Improved:AI prompts document HTML Builder widgets and recommend semantic text tags (`p`, `span`, headings) instead of bare copy inside layout divs.
  • Improved:Tag preview and style merge keep client inline styles when server-rendered placeholders refresh.
  • Fixed:Forms rendered dynamically inside Notifal popups now receive WP Armour honeypot fields when WP Armour is installed and active, preventing valid submissions from being rejected as spam.
2.4.5July 17, 2026
Lite
  • Improved:Pre-created notifications UX, Import Pre-Created scrolls to the library while it is still loading, and details popup builder import buttons appear only after template details finish loading.
2.4.4July 14, 2026
Lite
  • Fixed:HTML Builder HTML tab now keeps style attribute edits when you remove CSS properties and click Update HTML, without restoring stylesheet-matched rules as inline styles.
  • Added:Content Source now shows an info note for cart tags explaining that cart tag limits are not available, matching the user tags behavior.
  • Improved:HTML Source modal now opens with indented, readable HTML (including CSS in style tags) instead of a single minified line.
  • Added:HTML Source modal search with highlighted matches, scroll-to-first result, and previous/next navigation.
  • Improved:Properties panel HTML tab now opens with indented element markup and the same find-in-HTML search with previous/next navigation.
  • Added:Notifal countdown placeholder (`notifal-countdown`) with AI prompt guidance, Content panel minutes/seconds and when-timer-ends settings in HTML Builder, and frontend timer runtime.
2.4.3July 6, 2026
Lite
  • Added:Pre-created notification import now supports HTML Builder.
  • Added:Pre-created notification library now checks each template's minimum Notifal version before import.
  • Improved:Import buttons in the pre-created notification popup use shared click handling for archive and modal views.
  • Improved:Archive cards and the details popup show when your installed Notifal version is too old, with a link to update from Plugins.
  • Improved:Import requests are blocked server-side when the template requires a newer Notifal version.
2.4.2July 5, 2026
Lite
  • Fixed:HTML Builder Insert Tag modal now supports dynamic tags with an available-keys picker and copies tags to the clipboard without closing the modal.
  • Improved:HTML Builder and OnPage Generate with AI prompts now document full class-placeholder attributes for notifal-action-button, including copy (`data-notifal-action="copy"` and required `data-copy-text`) and Ajax add to cart (`data-notifal-action="ajax-add-to-cart"` with quantity, redirect, and product ID attributes).
  • Improved:AI prompts include explicit rules for when to use copy, Ajax add to cart, or post-link CTAs so generated templates produce working buttons.
  • Improved:HTML Builder and OnPage Generate with AI prompts now document multi-step templates built with custom-trigger action buttons (`data-hide-elements` / `data-show-elements`) so AI can generate progressive reveal flows inside one notification.
  • Improved:HTML Builder AI prompt examples include a multi-step popup pattern for guided opt-ins and reveal-offer flows.
  • Improved:HTML Builder class-placeholder processing now sanitizes custom-trigger hide and show selector attributes at render time.
  • Fixed:OnPage Custom CSS validation now accepts `@media` queries when inner rules use the notification ID or class prefix, so responsive styles no longer trigger false validation errors.
  • Fixed:OnPage Tab Badge Behavior (with Notifal Pro) now restores the browser tab title when the visitor switches away, including custom text and inactive-tab-only display mode.
