SEO Pages and 12-Column Grid Support

Posted by lcleveland in MySLP SaaS, Store Locator Plus, WPSLP

Users of our WordPress Power plugin get some new layout control features for our Pages SEO module. Users of our fully managed service will have to wait until later this year for our SEO page builder to be fully tested before getting that feature into our Enterprise accounts. MySLP users on the Power, Professional, or Enterprise accounts did get some other patches — see the end of this post.

12-Column Grid Support

Many sites, including thousands of WordPress themes, employ a common 12-Column grid layout system via the inclusion of various UI Frameworks. Frameworks such as Foundation, Bootstrap, and Vuetify are just a few CSS + JavaScript libraries that are used to build reactive and responsive themes.

Privacy Policy Update

You probably deleted 759 email messages already this week with a title “Updated Privacy Policy”. Here is another one to add to the stack.

If you are really interested in our Privacy Policy, you can read it here (http://3.211.25.112/privacy-policy/):

Privacy Policy

You are very likely to get a LOT MORE of these types of emails over the next few weeks as WordPress rolled out their 4.9.6 release that is very specifically tailored to support and encourage the creation and publication of a formal Privacy Policy on every single WordPress-driven site on the Internet.

Why All The Privacy Policy Updates?

You can thank Europe and the members of the European Union for passing a privacy law. Known as the General Data Protection Regulation, known by the the now infamous GDPR moniker, it requires every single web service and application to have an explicit Privacy Policy. That Privacy Policy must be made known to all users of a site or service, which means anyone with a mailing list, blog, or social media presence is going to use at least one of those services to send a “Hey, read our updated Privacy Policy” message.

Enjoy.

New Edit Locations Interface

Posted by lcleveland in MySLP SaaS, Store Locator Plus, WPSLP

You may have noticed that the admin interface for Store Locator Plus has been changing during the past few releases.

Last month My Store Locator Plus users noticed that the Advanced Settings menu has been renamed “Store Locator Plus”. This has been done as we work toward improving and consolidating our documentation as well as functionality between the WordPress plugin and the fully managed locator service.

This month our Store Locator Plus users , whether using the WordPress plugins or MySLP service will notice that the add and edit locations page looks a bit different. This is part of today’s 4.9.14 update for WordPress and 18.04 update for MySLP.
