AjaxPress - Single Page Application, Ajax Navigation & Persistent Media Player

A true Single Page Application (SPA) plugin - no coding, no configuration. Stop losing visitors to slow page loads. AjaxPress replaces full page reloads with instant ajax navigation, giving your site a blazing-fast, app-like experience that keeps users engaged and coming back. 👉 Unlock Pro Features - Advanced features & priority support 💨 Instant page loads. Visitors get zero-delay page transitions with smooth navigation - no white screens, no waiting, no frustration. Lower bounce rates, longer sessions. 🎵 Audio and video never stop. Live streams, podcasts, and music keep playing seamlessly while users browse. A game-changer for radio stations, podcast networks, and music platforms. [youtube https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sq0b3PVJJfs] How It Works AjaxPress intercepts internal link clicks and loads the next page over ajax instead of a full browser reload. Real URLs are preserved via the History API, the page title and head metadata (canonical, OpenGraph, JSON-LD) are synced on every navigation, and back/forward buttons work exactly as expected. Search engines crawl your site normally - nothing changes for SEO.

The plugin works fully without sending any data anywhere. Optionally - and only with your explicit consent - AjaxPress can share non-confidential diagnostic data (such as PHP/WordPress version and plugin settings) via PackEdge to help us reproduce and fix issues faster. You can review exactly what is shared and opt out at any time. See the PackEdge privacy policy for details. PackEdge is also used for license activation (Pro) and an optional deactivation-feedback form. No visitor data from your site's frontend is ever collected.

For full changelog, see changelog.txt 2.3.4

• Fixed: On block themes such as Twenty Twenty-Five, the browser back button could trigger a full page reload that reset persistent players. AjaxPress now switches off WordPress's built-in block navigation scripts that competed with its own SPA navigation

2.3.3

• New: Cloudflare cache integration — purge and manage Cloudflare edge cache directly from the AjaxPress settings panel
• Fixed: Duplicate browser-history entries. Each navigation now adds exactly one entry and the back button no longer traps visitors in a loop
• Fixed: Back/forward navigation that hits a server redirect no longer creates unwanted forward entries
• Fixed: The ajaxpress:ready event now fires after the URL and title are updated, so analytics listeners read the correct page
• New: ajaxpress_page_view dataLayer event for Google Analytics 4 / Tag Manager, with page_location, page_title, and measured engagement_time_msec so GA4 engagement metrics keep working on SPA navigation
• New: ajaxpress-loading and ajaxpress-complete events are now emitted as documented
• Fixed: Ctrl/Cmd+click and Shift+click on links now open a new tab or window instead of navigating in place
• Fixed: target="_blank" is matched case-insensitively, and a site-wide <base target> is honored
• Fixed: Links with a download attribute are no longer intercepted by SPA navigation
• Fixed: Elements opted into persistence no longer appear twice in the page shell
• Fixed: No more doubled audio with persistent media players. The previous page is fully unloaded after navigation and the hidden original player copy is removed once lifted
• Fixed: Premium settings (Media Players, Exclude Links, loader customizations) are no longer erased when a license check fails or the plugin is re-activated
• Fixed: A temporary license-server outage no longer deactivates your license. Only a definitive invalid-key response does
• Security: The license key is no longer printed in the public page source. The frontend now receives only a validity flag

2.3.2

• New: Rebuilt licensing and activation - faster, more reliable license validation and a smoother activation flow
• New: Send feedback directly from the Help page, with a quick happy / neutral / unhappy rating
• New: Rating prompt to share your experience, plus a one-click way to leave a review
• New: Optional diagnostic sharing via PackEdge (only non-confidential data, only with your consent) so we can reproduce and fix issues faster. See our privacy policy for details.
• Improved: Deactivation now asks for a quick, optional reason to help us improve the plugin
• Changed: Minimum required PHP is now 7.1
• Changed: Tested up to WordPress 7.0
