Pomatio updates – Changelog – September 2026

General

  • WordPress Updated
  • Translation updates
  • Third party plugin updates
  • Updated POM product documentation to cover the expanded AI, editing, ecommerce, translation, and site-management workflows.

New Features

  • Added native website authoring through POM AI MCP, allowing connected assistants to work with pages, navigation, forms, settings, templates, and filtered listings through controlled WordPress operations.
  • Added resumable website-authoring plans with previews, progress checkpoints, conflict detection, and recovery after interrupted operations.
  • Added a bundled POM Site Authoring skill for Codex and Claude Code, with guidance for the installed editor, theme components, layouts, and site navigation.
  • Added account-wide MCP connections for eligible Unlimited accounts, so independently authorized websites can be managed through one connection.
  • Added a staged long-article workflow in POM AI, with saved research, outlines, section generation, optional images, SEO metadata, and controls to resume unfinished work.
  • Added saved website-copy projects with editable page plans, per-page progress, optional web research, and recoverable drafts.
  • Added dedicated WooCommerce product and category copy tools, including resumable batches and options to replace, append, or prepend descriptions.
  • Added a structured business profile for POM AI so writing, image, and translation tasks can use more relevant business context.
  • Added named image-model choices and output controls that adapt to the selected model.
  • Added new POM Gutenberg blocks, including a POM Shortcode block for using existing shortcode content within the block editor.
  • Added horizontal row behaviors driven by page scrolling or pointer hover, with native touch scrolling and reduced-motion fallbacks.
  • Added continuous carousel scrolling and separate width and height settings for the mobile logo.
  • Added off-canvas navigation for WooCommerce My Account.
  • Added management fees for exact component combinations in POM Composite Products.
  • Added temporary catalog PDF downloads and expanded product-terms handling to retain multiple accepted PDF documents with orders and subscriptions.
  • Added configurable temporary-rental labels in POM Inmotek, applied consistently across property pages, listings, sliders, and PDFs.
  • Added translation support for POM video sources and backgrounds, plus document-translation synchronization that preserves canonical slugs and already translated content.
  • Added collapsible release-history panels for product changelogs, with heading and icon color controls.

Improvements

  • Improved consistency between Gutenberg previews, saved content, and the frontend, including typography, spacing, borders, device visibility, and palette colors.
  • Standardized responsive spacing across the theme and POM integrations so rows, sidebars, course content, event feedback, and property layouts follow the same scale.
  • Improved Gap block editing with keyboard resizing, anchors, and device-visibility controls.
  • Improved article-image generation by choosing a visual medium that fits the section context and using the first generated image as the featured image.
  • Improved POM AI catalog navigation and access for editorial roles.
  • Improved Composite Product option loading with configurable limits for larger catalogs.
  • Improved carousel loading by deferring hidden-slide media and refreshing slide dimensions when lazy-loaded images become available.
  • Improved template handling with nested conditional sections and explicit dimensions for images sourced from custom fields.
  • Improved cookie-consent integration with WooCommerce Order Attribution.
  • Improved the reliability and efficiency of site exports, including their WordPress folder structure and archive generation.
  • Improved progress feedback for bulk wine creation and added wine thumbnails to the administration list.

Fixes

  • Fixed non-looping carousels continuing past their final slide during autoplay, and corrected slider visibility and height after lazy loading.
  • Fixed Page Builder spacing across previews, isolated spacing when duplicating rows or columns, and preserved background-image changes when reopening column settings.
  • Fixed hosted-video startup so playback waits for a valid source, and aligned video and image fitting in scroll-triggered scenes.
  • Fixed reusable-content translation context, encoded language-switcher query parameters, and translated taxonomy routes.
  • Fixed translation batches involving protected content and made failed translations easier to identify.
  • Fixed Composite preset saving and restored parent-product tax controls.
  • Fixed regional storefront rules and restored variable-product purchase controls after regional prices load.
  • Fixed checkout validation for company identifiers containing country prefixes and corrected checkout-field handling.
  • Fixed protection of native WooCommerce registration with reCAPTCHA and improved privacy for uploaded form files.
  • Fixed footer social-link settings, clipped searchable dropdowns, and sticky rows overlapping the footer.
  • Fixed missing screen-reader styles and improved widget and property-filter heading structure.
  • Fixed searching across Custom CSS editors and restored editor-mode access for super administrators.
  • Fixed Google tag setting validation and restored editorial SEO scores.
  • Fixed missing additional items in legacy proposal PDFs.
  • Strengthened MCP authoring permissions and recovery, and improved escaping of text and email fields in shared POM settings.
