Whether you're building a landing page, a portfolio, or a high-converting marketing site, our separators help you guide the visitor's eye and create a premium feel without touching a single line of code. ✨ Why settle for standard dividers?

2.0.8 - 19 October 2026

• New: Added an occasional, dismissible admin notice inviting happy users to leave a WordPress.org review (free version only; shown once after a week of use).
• Improvement: Expanded the plugin's WordPress.org listing tags for better search discoverability.

2.0.7 - 30 September 2026

• Fix: Block settings (separator type, colors, icons, etc.) were being reset to default every time the block was saved, caused by the new server-side validation added in 2.0.6 mishandling WordPress's slashed post content.
• Fix: Removed a call to a non-existent WordPress function that could crash the site with a fatal error after updating to 2.0.6.
• Fix: Corrected an invalid block attribute schema that caused "type" schema keyword required notices/warnings to appear on the site.

2.0.6 - 21 September 2026

• Security: Sanitized icon separator markup (attributes.iconSep.ele) on both the frontend and the server before it is rendered, closing a stored XSS vector reported by the WordPress.org plugin review team.
• Security: Hardened the separator's dynamic <style> tag output against markup breakout from free-text style values.
• Improvement: Lazy-load the emoji picker in the block editor instead of bundling it into the main editor script, significantly reducing the editor bundle size.
