AdPresso 1.6.0 introduces new capabilities for Pro users to manage ads, groups, and placements with more granular control. This update also improves performance and accessibility across the plugin.

New dedicated capabilities for Pro users

This release adds dedicated capabilities specifically for managing ads, groups, and placements in the Pro version of AdPresso. These capabilities allow for more precise permission settings for different user roles.

Reduced database queries and conditional script loading

AdPresso now reduces the number of database queries and loads scripts only on the admin screens where they are needed. This optimization helps improve overall plugin performance.

Improved admin accessibility

The admin interface has been enhanced to better support screen readers, keyboard navigation, and users who prefer reduced motion. These improvements make managing ads more accessible to a wider range of users.

Enhanced importer security

The importer has been hardened to better protect ads owned by users with higher privileges, improving security during data import operations.

Also in this release

  • Fixed JavaScript rendering to align with server-side output.
  • Resolved tracking issues for ads placed in Ad Bar, Footer, and Popup placements.
  • Corrected Ad Bar display problems with themes that remove inline CSS.
  • Applied lazy loading and custom position features correctly in the Pro version.

Update to AdPresso 1.6.0 now to take advantage of these improvements and fixes.
