uiXpress 1.2.13 - Enhanced Compatibility & License System Updates

We're releasing uiXpress 1.2.13 with important compatibility improvements, a streamlined license system, and several bug fixes that improve reliability.

Better WordPress Compatibility

This release focuses on making uiXpress work seamlessly across different WordPress configurations. We've completely refactored how the plugin handles file paths and URLs, ensuring compatibility with WordPress installations that use custom wp-content directory names or non-standard configurations.

All plugin asset URLs now use WordPress's built-in plugins_url() function instead of hardcoded paths. Whether you're running a standard WordPress setup or a custom configuration with renamed directories, uiXpress will now work flawlessly.

Streamlined License System

We've overhauled the license key system for improved security and reliability. License keys and instance IDs are no longer exposed to frontend JavaScript, keeping your activation data more secure. The new system uses an improved validation endpoint that handles existing activations more gracefully, with better error handling and clearer user feedback throughout the license management process.

Bug Fixes

Force Global Theme Fixed - The Force Global Theme setting now works correctly. Previously, if you tried to force light theme while your browser was in dark mode, it wouldn't work properly. The global override now takes precedence as intended.

Activity Logger Plugin Deletion - Fixed a fatal error that occurred when deleting plugins while Activity Logger was tracking changes. The logger now properly handles plugin deletion events without errors.

Real-Time Analytics - Active users data in Analytics now returns fresh, real-time information without any caching delays. Perfect for monitoring current site activity accurately.

Submenu Favorites - Fixed an issue preventing submenu items from being added as favorites in the admin menu.

Fluent Cart Compatibility - Resolved style conflicts with Fluent Cart to ensure both plugins work together smoothly.

Code Quality Improvements

Behind the scenes, we've significantly improved code maintainability by centralizing global properties handling across all 17 app entry files. This reduces code duplication and makes future updates more reliable. We've also updated the Vite configuration for better build compatibility across different environments.
