# Changelog
|
|
|
|
All notable changes to Aurora Admin, newest first — one entry per version bump.
|
|
|
|
## [1.0] — 2026-07-26
|
|
|
|
First public release.
|
|
|
|
### Admin experience
|
|
- Full modern admin shell — fixed sidebar, toolbar, and global search — in
|
|
place of the standard WordPress admin chrome.
|
|
- Real, functional replacement screens (not visual reskins) for: Dashboard,
|
|
Posts, Pages, Media, Users, Comments, Add User, Media Upload, Profile,
|
|
Plugins, Nav Menus, Widgets, Themes, the five core Settings screens
|
|
(General, Writing, Reading, Discussion, Permalinks), Tools (Available
|
|
Tools), Export, and Import.
|
|
- Sub-apps: Aurora Settings, Setup Wizard, Menu Creator (with drag-to-reorder
|
|
and native menu-item preservation), Role Editor, Admin Notices, Activity
|
|
Log, and Report a Bug.
|
|
- **Modules**: a one-click addon marketplace for Aurora's standalone
|
|
companion plugins (File Manager, Database Explorer, Site Backup).
|
|
- **Login Redirect**: optional, off-by-default redirects — send logged-out
|
|
wp-admin visitors to a custom URL instead of the login screen, and/or send
|
|
specific roles to a custom URL after logging in instead of the dashboard.
|
|
Never touches wp-login.php itself.
|
|
- **Disable Gutenberg**: an opt-in toggle that switches every post type to
|
|
WordPress's classic editor instead of the block editor.
|
|
- **Activity Log**: a filterable table (Date, Author, IP Address, Type,
|
|
Action, Description) with separate Admin and User tabs; the Author column
|
|
shows the user's avatar, role, and email.
|
|
- Media Folders and White Label rebranding for client sites.
|
|
- Screens intentionally left native rather than rebuilt: the block editor
|
|
and the Theme/Plugin File Editor — both dark-themed for legibility, since
|
|
full file-editing/code-editor functionality isn't accepted into the
|
|
WordPress.org Plugin Directory.
|
|
|
|
### Theming
|
|
- A real dark mode covering the entire admin, including every native screen
|
|
Aurora frames rather than rebuilds (Site Health, Export/Erase Personal
|
|
Data, Updates, the Theme/Plugin File Editor).
|
|
- Live theme presets — 10 color accents plus 2 flat neutrals — applied
|
|
across the whole interface, plus an optional (off-by-default) Google Font
|
|
for the interface typeface.
|
|
- Rounded, framed content cards with a soft shadow; scroll areas sit inside
|
|
the rounded frame instead of squaring off its corners, and scrollbars are
|
|
tinted with the active theme accent.
|
|
|
|
### Under the hood
|
|
- REST API namespace `aurora-admin/v1` backing every takeover screen.
|
|
- Security & performance hardening module, custom admin CSS/JS injection,
|
|
and a login-screen customizer.
