Announcement: Free vs Premium

  • Dear all,

    in the coming days a new version of Category Posts in Custom Menu will be released. This will be version 2.0.0. There will be quite a large change: The plugin will be split into a Free and a Premium version.

    The Free version will offer basic functionality to replace a category by its posts. Yes, that means that some features will disappear from the Free version.

    • Premium has extra wildcards that Free doesn’t have.
    • Premium allows expanding unlimited posts; Free is limited to 10 posts.
    • Premium allows preserving the original menu item; Free always removes the category to replace it by the posts below it.
    • Premium allows filtering out the subcategories; Free always returns posts in subcategories when the parent category is selected.
    • Premium supports HTML in the label field; Free only supports plaintext.
    • Premium offers hooks to extend the plugin functionality; Free does not.

    If you cannot accept these changes, I suggest you keep using 1.3.0. This is, however, an old version and although it has stood the test of time well and is still functional after 2 years (thanks to no major changes to how WordPress manages the menu under Appearance > Menus), it will not be updated, supported or maintained.

    Kind regards,
    Diana
