Updates
Quick update (no version change) - Some JS script and translation string updates
UPDATE 3.0 Update 3.0 is a complete relaunch of Canvas with essentially every aspect of the plugin completely rewritten. This allowed us to future-proof it and set the foundation for future updates. - New activation button: --- added new customizable button (classic triangle button also available, complete with the latest version of Font Awesome 5) --- add custom text --- change text size --- use theme fonts --- add background image (pattern or full size) --- customize button roundness & border thickness - Added option to disable the Font Awesome icon set (useful when your installation already loads the icon set from another plugin or theme) Please note: If you're upgrading from a pre-3.0 version, then as a side effect of refreshing the codebase, you must set up Canvas from scratch. It will only take moments though as customization is now much (much!) quicker thanks to real-time previews. You will find all customization settings under "Appearance → Customize → Canvas Plugin". Thank you for understanding!
