New
- Module toggle. Each Pro module (Analytics, Group Blogs, Series, Co-Authors, Scheduling, Notifications, Custom Fields, Author Settings) can now be turned on or off independently from a single settings screen. Disabling a module also removes its admin tabs, profile sub-navs, and frontend endpoints - so sites that only need one or two Pro features stop paying the UI cost for the rest.
Improve
- 36 native browser `alert()` and `confirm()` dialogs across the Pro admin and frontend (author settings, scheduling, series, co-authors, custom fields) have been replaced with an accessible in-page toast notification and a focus-trapping confirmation modal. Keyboard users no longer need to dismiss native browser popups, and the dialogs match the rest of the plugin's design.
- Pro now shares the same in-page toast / confirm-modal helpers as the free plugin instead of shipping its own copy, reducing total JS payload on sites running both plugins.
Fix
- The "Overview" author-settings tab is no longer rendered when a site has hidden it via shortcode or via the new module toggle. Previously it could still appear on member profiles even when disabled.
- The author-settings sub-navigation now hides every individual tab that has been disabled, on every route (profile, BuddyBoss app, REST). Previously some tabs would re-appear on direct URL access even when turned off.
- Video custom fields now render their embedded video preview on the public post page. Previously the field would output a raw URL on some configurations.
- The Pro plugin's profile sub-navigation now registers correctly on BuddyBoss installs. Previously the "Series", "Scheduling", and "Author Settings" tabs could fail to appear in the BuddyBoss profile nav.
Security
- 8 admin and AJAX endpoints now pair their security-token check with an explicit permission-capability check. This closes a class of edge cases where a logged-in non-admin could trigger an action that should have been admin-only.
Dev
- New filter `bpmb_pro_should_enqueue_assets` lets themes and integrations decide whether to load the plugin's frontend assets on a given page. Mirrors the same filter on the free plugin.
