2.1.4
1.1.0
Thanks to some changes implemented in the core featherlight script, the accessibility of WP Featherlight is now significantly improved. Lightboxed elements now have more appropriate focus management for screen readers and the close button is more accessible.
This update also fixes a potential plugin compatibly problem in the WordPress admin. In version 1.0, it was possible under unusual circumstances for the plugin to throw a fatal error when attempting to add the disable checkbox to the publish metabox.
- Tweak: Improved accessibility (accessible close button, better focus management)
- Fix: Prevented a fatal error that could happen when another plugin unsets the WP_Post object on the publish metabox.
- Dev: Updated Featherlight to
1.7.0
1.0.0
Even though this is a major version change, this is primarily a maintenance release. The reason for the jump to 1.0.0 is because we've changed some code which could break backwards compatibility with custom extensions and integrations.
If you're just using the plugin on your site and haven't customized it or paid anyone to customize it for you, you should be able to update without any issues.
If you're a developer and have written custom code extending the PHP side of WP Featherlight, be sure to test your code before updating.
Under the hood, we've deprecated some internal methods which could potentially break custom code which extends WP Featherlight. The changes are primarily limited to class initialization, so unless you were doing something specific to that, it's unlikely that you'll run into issues.
- Tweak: Improved transition between images within galleries
- Tweak: Moved our disable lightbox checkbox into the publish meta box to streamline the admin
- Tweak: Made styles more aggressive to ensure elements look consistent across different themes by default
- Fix: Reduced false positives for URLs that use image extensions but don't actually link to an image
- Dev: Updated Featherlight to
1.5.1 - Dev: Updated jQuery Detect Swipe to
2.1.3 - Dev: Deprecated some internal methods
- Dev: Reorganized how classes are instantiated and plugin actions are fired

If you were previously using the plugin's constant values for one thing or another, they will continue to work for now but may be removed at some point down the road. It's recommended that you use the main plugin class' getter methods to retrieve information about the plugin such as the version, directory, and anything else you may need which was previously stored in constant values.
If you have the chance to test this before we release it, we're always looking for feedback! If you have any questions, suggestions, or find any issues just open an issue and let us know.
0.2.0
The primary feature in this release is the addition of a visual loader and the automatic lightboxing of external images. In prior versions, only images from the WordPress host domain were lightboxed automatically. This caused some problems with people using a CDN as the URLs were treated as external.
There have also been a handful of code improvements under the hood including:
- Added gallery support for Jetpack Tiled Galleries
- Improved URL handling to match more image instances automatically
- Fixed a mistake in the textdomain path
- Improved admin metabox markup (props @GaryJones)
- Fixed a typo in the main stylesheet's script handle (props @GaryJones)
