Changelog

Release history for Logicanvas Auctions. After upgrading to 1.2.x, review Auctions → Settings → Appearance and the optional store modes on Setup. Existing sites that already used the plugin login page keep replace_wp_login on via a one-time migration.

1.2.1

Release date: 2026-09-29

• Setup demo auction (create/delete) and clearer next-steps after pages are ready.
• Buy Now for timed auctions: ends the lot, creates an award, and sends the buyer to payment.
• Relist/duplicate finished auctions (admin list + seller dashboard) as a fresh draft with new dates.
• Catalog empty state points admins to Setup / Add Auction.

1.2.0

Release date: 2026-09-27

• Clearer first run: activation opens Auctions → Setup; dashboard checklist until pages and a first lot exist.
• Soft defaults: WordPress login and WooCommerce shop stay available unless you opt in (replace_wp_login, disable_wc_catalog, login redirects, wp-admin restrict).
• Setup explains optional store modes; Settings copy matches. Existing sites with a plugin login page keep replace_wp_login via a one-time migration.
• Plugin list “Setup” action link; friendlier dismissible onboarding notice.
• Docs and FAQ updated so install no longer sounds like it takes over login/shop.
• Appearance settings: six design themes (Classic, Midnight, Auction house, Ocean, Minimal, Ember).
• Customization: accent color override, corner radius, spacing density, card style, and optional custom CSS.
• Theme tokens drive heroes, sidebars, and accents across auction pages, live rooms, and dashboards.
