Changelog

This release adds control over your archive URLs and hand-picked casinos in listings. It also fixes a missing slot on the slots page and improves how casino tables look next to a sidebar.

✨ New Features

• Hand-pick casinos in a listing: The Casino Listing block can now show exactly the casinos you choose, in the order you want, instead of only filtering by category or type.
• Custom archive page URLs: You can now change the web address of your casino and slots archive pages (for example yoursite.com/reviews instead of yoursite.com/casinos) from the theme settings. The new address takes effect straight away.

🔧 Improvements

• Better country flags: Country flags now display more consistently across casino listings and country availability badges.
• Casino tables next to a sidebar: On pages and posts that have a sidebar, the casino table now hides the less essential columns and gives the casino name more room, so it stays readable on narrower layouts.

🐛 Fixes

• Missing slot on the slots page: The first slot was left out of the slots archive page. All slots now show up.

This release brings the Second Author (fact-checker) feature to posts and pages, fixes block previews in the editor, adds more countries to the supported/restricted country lists, simplifies demo import, and updates the bundled Advanced Custom Fields plugin.

🌟 New Features

• Second Author on Posts & Pages: The Second Author (fact-checker) feature, previously available only on broker reviews, now works on regular posts and pages too. Assign a second author from the post/page edit screen, and their name appears next to the main author with a “Fact-checked by” label. New toggles in FXT Options → Post and FXT Options → Page control whether their full profile block also appears at the bottom of the content.

🔧 Improvements

• Block Editor Preview Fix: Content blocks (comparison tables, FAQs, listings, pros & cons, and others) now display fully styled while editing in the WordPress block editor, matching how they look on the live site. Previously they appeared unstyled while editing.
• Customize Regulations, Countries, Payment Methods, Platforms & Languages: The dropdown lists on broker pages (regulations, supported/restricted countries, payment methods, trading platforms, and languages) can now be extended or edited with filters — add your own entries, rename labels, or remove ones you don’t need, from your child theme. See the how-to guide for examples.

🛠️ Technical Changes

• Advanced Custom Fields: Updated the bundled ACF Pro plugin to version 6.8.9.

🌟 New Features

• Geo Targeting is now built into the theme — previously a separate AkuraiGeo add-on plugin, it’s now part of Akurai itself. No more separate plugin to install, license, or update. If you had the AkuraiGeo plugin active, it’s automatically deactivated for you and all your existing Geo settings and content carry over unchanged.
• New Geo Targeting section on the Theme Setup page — manage your target countries (with a quick search box to find them) and the default supported/not-supported messages right from Settings → Theme Setup, alongside your other theme settings.
• Bonus page slug setting — you can now customize the bonus page URL slug from the Theme Setup page, the same way you already could for review pages.

🎨 UI/UX Updates

• Geo Affiliate Links now live in their own tab inside the main Review Fields box, instead of a separate box further down the page.
• Refreshed the Theme Setup page layout — settings sections are cleanly stacked on the left, with a redesigned resources card pinned to the right.

🛠️ Technical Changes

• Upgraded ACF to version 6.8.9 and updated the review page blocks to Block API version 3 compatibility with WordPress 7.1 and the block editor’s iframe-based canvas.

• Fix: Fatal error when casino logo ACF field is empty (broke autosave/publish)
• Fix: Wrong argument passed to SpinokoTerms::text() in casino widget
• Remove: License key activation and expiration check system

🌟 New Features

• Sortable Links Table: Click “Slug”, “Clicks”, or “Added” in the links table to sort by that column — click again to reverse the order.

🎨 UI/UX Updates

• Steadier Links Table: Column widths no longer shift around while the links table is loading.

🔧 Improvements

• Fewer Requests on the Front End: The visitor-side tracking script now sends a single request per page view, reducing load on your server and lowering the chance of triggering host-level rate limiting on busy pages.
• More Accurate Country Detection: Improved visitor IP detection for sites behind Cloudflare and similar services, so GeoIP country data resolves correctly instead of showing “Unknown.”
• Diagnostic Logging: Added logging for GeoIP lookup failures, making it easier to diagnose country-detection issues going forward.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• CSV Import: Fixed an issue where importing links from a CSV file would fail with a “Destination URL is required” error, even with correctly formatted files.

Update plugin dependencies and carry out minor internal improvements.

Updated ACF support to 6.8.9 for better WordPress 7.1 compatibility.

This release adds a new compact broker listing style with expandable details, and updates the bundled Advanced Custom Fields plugin.

🌟 New Features

• Listing Style #9: A new broker listing template shows brokers in a compact card with logo, rating, top pros, and a “Real Account” button up front. Clicking “More details” expands the card to reveal extra info (your choice of fields), the broker’s key features (Negative Balance Protection, Swap-Free Accounts, etc.), a description, the author byline, and a link to the full review — all without leaving the page.

🛠️ Technical Changes

• Advanced Custom Fields: Updated the bundled ACF Pro plugin to version 6.8.7.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed issue with header navigation sub-menus on Android devices

🛠️ Technical Changes

• Updated bundled dependencies to their latest versions.

🌟 New Features

• “Last updated” date on review pages — a new toggle displays the review’s last-modified date next to the terms line on both the default and banner hero templates. Customize the label text (default “Last updated: “) from Appearance → Customize → Reviews.
• Toggle for terms text on review pages — the terms/wagering-requirements line under the hero can now be switched on or off independently from Appearance → Customize → Reviews, instead of always showing whenever terms content exists.

🎨 UI/UX Updates

• Fixed mobile nav menu so long menus can be scrolled all the way to the last item — previously, the last items could sit below the visible area with no way to scroll to them.
• Sub-menu items in the mobile nav now open and close with a single, dedicated tap on the arrow instead of a fiddly first-tap-to-reveal gesture, and tapping anywhere outside an open sub-menu reliably closes it.

🔧 Improvements

• Added an akurai_posts_thumbnail_size filter so the thumbnail size used in the Recent Posts shortcode can be customized.

🐛 Bug Fixes

• Fixed a missing closing tag on blog archive pages that could break the layout after the post list.
• Fixed missing width/height attributes on Comparison Table logos, which could cause layout shift while images load.

🛠️ Technical Changes

This release adds two new broker page templates for instruments and features, introduces a second author/fact-checker field on reviews, and improves translation coverage across the theme.

🌟 New Features

• Second Author (Fact-Checker): You can now assign a second author to any broker review to show a fact-checker or co-reviewer. Their name appears in the review header (next to the main author) with a “Fact-checked by” label. A toggle in FXT Options → Broker controls whether their full profile block also appears at the bottom of the review.
• Features Page Template: A new “Features” page template for broker pages displays a header that highlights key broker features: Negative Balance Protection, Swap-Free Accounts, Social Trading, VPS Services, PAMM Accounts, Bonuses & Promotions, Customer Support, and Education resources — demo
• Instruments Page Template: A new “Instruments” page template for broker pages displays a dedicated header showcasing the broker’s tradable assets — demo

🔧 Improvements

• Country Support Block Fix: If you use a custom template text for the country support message, the block now correctly shows the visitor’s country and broker support status. Previously it could display nothing if the placeholders weren’t in the template.
• More Translatable Text: The “Search results for:” heading, the “Choose Another Broker” button, and its helper text in the country support block can now be translated or overridden via FXT string settings.
• Translatable Country Names: Country names are now fully translatable — this covers the supported/restricted country lists on broker pages as well as the visitor’s detected country shown in the country support block.

🌟 New Features

• Added a dedicated Bonus post type so each bonus offer gets its own page with a full URL, indexable content (SEO), and a hero (bonus value, promo code with copy button, CTA, terms).
• Related bonuses section on bonus pages — select up to 3 similar bonuses to display them at the bottom of bonus pages.
• Linked Bonuses on review pages — a new toggle on every review lets you show a bonus grid below the main content. Choose specific bonuses in the multiselect box or leave it empty and the theme auto-pulls all bonuses linked to that review.
• Bonus page Customizer options — control button text, “Read review” link text, the “From” label before the logo, the placeholder text when there’s no promo code, etc. from Appearance → Customize → Bonus Options.
• Bonus REST API — two new endpoints: list all bonuses (/akurai/v1/bonuses/) or fetch a single bonus by ID (/akurai/v1/bonuses/{id}).

Added 3 toggle fields to the block editor to show or hide the review name, rating or “read review” text.

🌟 New Features

🔧 Improvements

🛠️ Technical Changes

This release adds support for multiple affiliate links per broker with flexible per-listing selection, a new WordPress dashboard widget for at-a-glance broker management, a dedicated theme integrations page, and a refreshed admin options UI.

🌟 New Features

• Multiple Affiliate Links: Define up to 10 named affiliate link groups in a new FXT Options → Affiliate Links sub-page (e.g. “Crypto”, “CFD”). Each group gets a URL field on every broker, alongside the existing Real Account Link. Each listing block now has a dropdown to choose which affiliate link to use for that placement — defaulting to the Real Account Link. If a broker has no URL for the chosen group, it falls back to the Real Account Link automatically.
• Dashboard Widget: A new WordPress dashboard widget gives a quick overview of broker stats (total, published, drafts), flags published brokers missing key data (logo, rating, account link), and provides quick links to manage brokers, FXT Options, and Integrations. External links to theme docs, changelog, and support are included. A license expiry notice is shown if the license has lapsed.
• Theme Integrations Page: A new Integrations admin page documents available third-party integrations. The first featured integration is tablrr — a centralized listings management platform that syncs broker data across multiple FXT sites from a single dashboard.

🎨 Design Improvements

• Admin Options Header: Refreshed the FXT Options panel header with updated typography (Outfit font) and a cleaner layout.
• Dashboard Widget Styles: Purpose-built CSS for the dashboard widget with stat counters, quick-action buttons, incomplete-data list, and an expiry warning state.

🌟 New Features

• New REST API routes: Create more integration, you can now manage your links and redirects through the WP REST API.
• Bulk Tagging: You can now select multiple links to add or remove tags simultaneously, making link organization significantly faster.
• Configurable Pagination: Added a “links per page” selector (20, 50, or 100) that persists to your browser settings.

🎨 UI/UX Updates

• CSS Isolation: Implemented a global prefix for all plugin utility classes. This ensures Nonaki’s styles remain isolated and do not conflict with your WordPress theme or other active plugins.

🔧 Improvements

• Better Link Checker: Improved how the link checker works for more precise results.
• API Resiliency: Added Cache-Control: no-cache to API GET requests to ensure you’re always seeing the most up-to-date link data.

DinOdds version 1.6.0 includes:

• ApuestaHoy.com odds feeds
• Minor adjustments to plugin page in WordPress dashboard

Version 2 is a complete rewrite. The core is the same - clean, cloaked redirect links from your WordPress dashboard - but everything around it is new.

• Analytics — clicks and impressions per link, broken down by device, browser, OS, country, and referrer.
• Tags — organize links into groups and filter by tag.
• Link health checker — Nonaki checks your destination URLs on a schedule and emails you when something breaks.
• Trash & restore — delete links safely, restore them anytime.
• Import / Export — bring in a list of links from CSV or JSON, export anytime.
• REST API — pull click and impression data into external tools using an API key.
• New admin UI — fully redesigned and fast.

Upgrading from v1? Your links migrate automatically on reactivation. See the upgrade guide.

⚠️ Important - Nonaki now requires PHP 8.4 or above - make sure your server doesn’t run an outdated version of PHP..

🌟 New Features

• Review Bonus Block: New “Bonus” block (and [sb_bonus] shortcode) that displays a review’s bonus offer as a card - logo, bonus text, optional copy-able bonus code, affiliate link button, and optional terms. Supports per-block overrides for bonus text, bonus code, link, and terms, and can target a specific review or fall back to the current review page.

• Added a dedicated REST API under /akurai/v1/ with two endpoints: fetch a single review by ID (/reviews/{id}) or query a paginated list of reviews (/reviews). Both return all key review fields including ratings, bonuses, terms, payment methods, and offer data.
