Release Changelog 1.10.0

Added

• The changelog hero now leads with the configured brand name as an eyebrow.

• Added a structured editor for repository mappings under Changelog → Settings: a table with a color picker, a dashicon field with a live preview, and suggested tier values per product, with the JSON view kept as an advanced fallback.

• Added four more archive starting points composed from existing blocks: Spine timeline changelog, Compact release log, Reading rail changelog, and Product board changelog.

• Added a faceted filter rail. The Release Filters block gained a layout attribute: form keeps the existing select form, and facets renders a vertical rail of filter links with per-facet counts. Both filter through the same query arguments, so filtering works with scripting disabled; the frontend script upgrades the rail to in-place filtering.

• Added a Release Month Heading block that groups a chronological archive into month sections from inside an ordinary Post Template.

• Added a Release Count block that reports how many releases match the active filters.

• Added starting-point patterns: Faceted changelog index, Release with sidebar, and three widget patterns for recent releases, a latest release card, and the newest release’s change groups.

• Recent Releases can now render its own optional heading, show each release’s version, and scope itself to the product of the release being viewed.

Changed

• The Release Filters block now exposes its form or facet-rail presentation in the editor, and the Release Month Heading, Release Count, and Recent Releases blocks are insertable and configurable from the inserter.

• Change- group items render as flush rows with a hanging dot in the label color instead of an indented browser list.

• The demo fixtures now configure product colors, icons, tiers, and change-type terms so every layout fully populates.

• Removed the husky and commitlint tooling.

• Aligned the bundled presentation with the plugin design system: release cards regained their surface, hairline border, product accent, and hover elevation; change-type badges render as tinted pills with the label color as text; card titles, versions, meta rows, facet controls, month headings, and sidebar lists follow a consistent type scale; and standalone change groups render as soft sections while groups inside a card stay flat.

• The changelog hero now aligns with the filter rail instead of centering against the theme content width, and component internals use :where() so a single-class theme rule overrides any bundled style without !important.

• Release cards and the changelog hero now use flow layout, so their content aligns with the card padding instead of being centered by the theme’s constrained content width.

• The recent releases list no longer repeats a version that is already part of the release title.

• Inside a release card the separator now sits under the change-type labels with the items below it, and list items align under their group heading.

• The bundled archive and single release templates now use the faceted index and sidebar layouts. Both remain ordinary Columns and Query Loop blocks, and the previous compositions stay available as patterns.

• Recent Releases no longer lists the release a visitor is already reading.
