PublishPress Tag Groups 3.0.1: Shortcode Security and Maintenance Fixes
This post is about a release of PublishPress Tag Groups. This plugin helps you display your WordPress Tags and Categories with stylish layouts and designs.
PublishPress Tag Groups 3.0.1 is a maintenance release focused on safer shortcode output. If you use shortcodes to display tag groups on your site, this update improves how separator and spacing settings are handled so they display safely and reliably.

What changed
- Safer shortcode separators: Separator settings are now handled more consistently before they appear on the front of your site.
- Improved spacing handling: Column gap settings in shortcodes are now processed safely to prevent unexpected output.
- Refreshed background components: Several behind the scenes packages were updated to keep the plugin more secure and current.
Why this matters
The main benefit is security hardening. This update helps prevent unwanted scripts from being saved in certain shortcode settings and displayed later to site visitors.
There are no new features or interface changes in this release. You should be able to update without changing how you manage tag groups or how your existing shortcodes work.
This post provides an overview of the new features in this release of the PublishPress Tag Groups plugin. The complete changelogs for both Free and Pro versions are available in our Docs area.
