PublishPress Series v3.1.2: New Post Summary Field and More Languages
PublishPress Series v3.1.2 is a maintenance release with a useful display improvement: the Post List Box now includes a clearer Post Summary field. This gives site owners a more direct way to manage short descriptive text for posts in a series, without confusing it with WordPress’s Excerpt feature.
Table of Contents
Feature highlights
- Post Summary field: This is available in PublishPress Series Pro. You can add a concise summary to the Post List Box without relying on the “Excerpt” field. You’ll find this option by going to Series > Post List Boxes > Post.
- More translation languages: The project has added new languages through its translation workflow, making the plugin easier to localize. PublishPress Series is now available in over 30 languages. Here’s a screenshot of PublishPress Series in Japanese:
Other improvements and fixes
This release also fixes a translation warning that could appear in the WordPress admin, including in the Pro version, and refreshes the plugin readme used on WordPress.org.
For developers
Contributors will notice that the repository has moved to PublishPress’s shared dev workspace package. This replaces duplicated development tooling with a Composer based setup and should not affect normal site management.
