- Site Builder - Hardened output escaping for the author name shown in Advanced Headers archive titles.
- WPML - Customizer strings like header/footer HTML and button text getting permanently saved in the wrong language when addon updates re-wrote options through WPML translation filters.
- Updater - Cleared the leftover "update available" notice for the already-installed version that could appear once after updating from an older version.
- Sticky Header - SVG logo no longer disappears when the "Enable Shrink Effect" option is enabled.
- Sticky Header - Primary Header no longer shifts to the left on scroll with the Max Width Site Layout when a margin is set from the Design tab.
- Sticky Header - Above/Below Header no longer shifts to the left on scroll with the Max Width Site Layout when the animation is set to Scroll or Fade.
- Site Builder - Creating a new Overlay Template from a Navigation block's Overlay settings no longer crashes the Block Editor with an "astra-custom-layout plugin has encountered an error" message.
- WooCommerce - Product Filters block no longer opens a second popup inside the Off-Canvas filter flyout on mobile product category pages.
- Live Search - Header Cover search style rendered a duplicate `id="ast-search-form"` in the DOM when used with the Header/Footer Builder, as the same template loads for both desktop and mobile header bars.
- Spacing - Blog / Archive "Pagination" spacing control no longer disappears from the Customizer when the Blog Pro module is turned off.
- Blog Pro - Post Filters showed a blank content area when the selected category used a custom Site Builder template; those tabs now load the page directly so the template renders.
- Site Builder - Restricted code-editor layouts to admins and sanitized non-executed snippets to prevent stored front-end scripts.
- WooCommerce - Resolved a PHP notice on WordPress 6.9.1+ triggered when the `flexslider` script handle was added as a dependency of `astra-addon-js` but WooCommerce was inactive or its scripts had not yet been registered.
- WooCommerce - Fixed mobile layout shift where the filter/sort toolbar briefly overlapped the product grid on initial page load before snapping into position with modern style.
- Sticky Header - Submenu dropdown appearing with a negative offset inside the header when logo width pushes header height beyond the configured header height value.
- Mega Menu - Custom padding set in the editor is now correctly applied when "Open Mega Menu On" is set to Hover, resolving a CSS specificity conflict that caused the hardcoded default to override user-defined values.
- Blog Pro - Infinite Scroll throwing a JS error on Custom Post Type archive pages that use a custom Site Builder template, caused by the script assuming the `#main` element always exists.
- Fixed gaps around featured images when Blog Card Content Alignment is enabled.
- Sticky header not working when jQuery 4.0 is loaded.
- Accordion tab content clipped on initial page load when containing dynamic content on single product pages.
- Translated custom layout hooks are displayed across all languages instead of only their assigned language when using the "Front Page" display condition with Polylang.
So glad I got this! My website looks professional now and it was surprisingly easy to set up. Thanks!
Hi, I’m currently using 4.10.5 on a site still running WP 6.5. Is updating to the official 4.11.10 version safe? I’m worried about the known conflicts with PHP 8.2 and the recent WP updates. Thanks!
Been using this for a while now, really solid addon. Makes my site look so much better. Ngl, it’s pretty good.
Having trouble getting the custom layouts feature to work correctly with conditional display rules. I want to show a specific layout only on custom post types, but it’s either showing everywhere or not at all. The documentation isn’t super clear on advanced conditions. Any tips or a more detailed tutorial on this?
I was looking for Astra Pro but wanted a reliable source outside the official site, and WPPick delivered! Their selection is truly well-curated, and the download process was incredibly easy and straightforward. It’s a fantastic alternative if you’re looking for premium plugins from a trustworthy platform. So grateful for WPPick’s excellent service!
After the last update, my transparent header option is completely broken on mobile devices. It looks fine on desktop, but on mobile, it’s just a solid white bar, even though the setting is enabled. I’ve cleared all caches (theme, plugin, browser) and it persists. Please look into this bug!
Astra Pro is a game changer fr! Super easy to use and adds so much 🔥 to my site. Def worth it.
WPPick is fantastic! I got Astra Pro from here, and the whole experience was seamless. Their curation of plugins is spot on, making it easy to find what you need. The download process was incredibly simple, and it’s clear they are a reliable source. For anyone needing a solid alternative to the official repositories, WPPick’s service is absolutely stellar.
Excellent plugin! I saw in the changelog for 4.11.10 that the custom breakpoints functionality has been significantly improved. I’m still rocking 4.8.2, which is solid, but I need those new controls. When will this latest version be available here?
Finding Astra Pro on WPPick was a game-changer! I love that they have such a good selection of premium plugins, and the fact that it’s a reliable source gives me so much peace of mind. The download was super easy, no fuss at all. It’s definitely a top-notch alternative to the official repos, and I’m really impressed with WPPick’s service.
