wp-parsely 3.11 will become available in VIP staging and production environments on Tuesday, November 14, 2023. Before using it in production, we recommend testing the new release in staging.
wp-parsely 3.11 will become the default version in production on Tuesday, November 21, 2023, and all non-pinned environments will be auto-upgraded to this version. These changes do not affect customers who don’t use wp-parsely, or use an integration method outside of mu-plugins.
What’s new
In this release, the Parse.ly Content Helper has received some major improvements. Notably:
- The Dashboard Widget now displays 5 results by default and supports pagination for viewing even more results.
- The Content Helper Sidebar was enhanced with the same filters that are present in the Dashboard Widget. This now permits viewing performance data and related top posts for a wider range of periods, as well as viewing related top posts by Avg. Time in addition to Page Views.
- The Related Top Posts panel now allows for fine-grained filtering. You have the option to select filtering by Tag, Section or Author, and the ability to specify the value to filter by (Page Views and Avg. Time). This new feature gives granular control in filtering results like never before.
- The Dashboard Widget and Sidebar now offer more time period selections for filters. The new additions are last 10 minutes and last 1, 2, and 4 hours.
Other notable changes include:
- Improved credentials validation in the plugin settings page.
- As it didn’t influence results, the “boost” field was removed from the Recommendations Block and Recommendations Widget.
- Added support for 9 Post Types that were supported by Parse.ly but missing from the plugin.
