Registro de alterações

1.5.2 – 2026-03-15

  • Fixed: Site scanner now neutralizes <main>, <header>, <footer> landmarks before analysis (same fix as editor v1.4.2), eliminating 3 false positives: landmark-no-duplicate-main, landmark-no-duplicate-banner, landmark-no-duplicate-contentinfo

1.5.1 – 2026-03-15

  • Fixed: Custom rules now generate unique CSS selectors for each element (via getUniqueSelector()), preventing the deduplication logic from collapsing multiple distinct violations into one
  • Fixed: custom-navigation-structure now correctly reports all <nav> elements without aria-label (was showing 1 instead of 3 on pages with multiple navs)
  • Fixed: All 17 custom rules updated — any rule detecting multiple elements of the same type now counts each one individually

1.5.0 – 2026-03-15

  • New: custom-social-links-incomplete rule — detects Social Links blocks with missing URLs (non-focusable) or missing aria-labels
  • New: custom-file-block-accessibility rule — detects File/Download blocks with generic button text (“Download”) lacking aria-label context
  • New: custom-details-generic-summary rule — detects Details/Accordion blocks with generic summary text (“Details”, empty)
  • New: custom-generic-landmark rule — detects <section> and <aside> elements (including Group blocks) without aria-label
  • Updated: Custom Rules engine now has 17 rules (was 13), covering all major Gutenberg core blocks

1.4.3 – 2026-03-15

  • Improved: custom-empty-button-link rule now detects Gutenberg buttons (<a class="wp-block-button__link">) without href — even when they have visible text, the missing href makes them non-focusable and invisible to screen readers

1.4.2 – 2026-03-15

  • Fixed: False positive landmark-no-duplicate-main in editor scan — the admin page already has its own <main>, so injecting the scanned page’s <main> made axe-core report duplicates
  • Fixed: Neutralize document-level landmarks (<main>, <header>, <footer>) in injected content by converting to <div> with data-wally-original-tag attribute

1.4.1 – 2026-03-15

  • Fixed: jQuery .html() crash (“Invalid regular expression: missing /”) when axe-core violation messages contain literal HTML tags like <script> or <template>
  • Fixed: Replaced $().html() with native innerHTML to bypass jQuery buildFragment/appendChild pipeline
  • Fixed: Added robust escapeHtml fallback and escaped error.message / v.helpUrl in violation cards
  • Fixed: Same jQuery crash in site scanner report (wally-ui.js)

1.4.0 – 2026-03-14

  • Wave 5 — Polish: Production-quality refactoring
  • Extracted shared JS rule helpers into wally-rule-helpers.js module (eliminates 7× duplicated functions across NBR + IF-THEN)
  • Replaced regex-based HTML parsing with DOMDocument in class-wally-html-checker.php (Cron, REST API, CLI)
  • Fixed WCAG mapping: custom-empty-button-link now correctly tags wcag412 alongside wcag244
  • Removed dead 3,068-line monolith wally-monitor-admin.js (fully replaced by modular architecture in v1.1.0)
  • Wave 4 — UX: Prioritized action plan, advanced filters (engine/sort/group-by), page grouping, forced-colors/high-contrast CSS
  • Updated documentation: file structure, changelog sync, version references

1.3.0 – 2025-03-14

  • New: Analysis Modes — WCAG 2.2 (axe-core only, default), NBR 17.225 (custom only)
  • New: NBR WCAG cross-reference map with 50+ bidirectional mappings
  • New: Mode selector UI on reports page with engine badges
  • Updated: axe-core to v4.11.1 (oklch/oklab contrast fixes, Shadow DOM improvements)
  • Refactored: Scanner and Editor now delegate to AnalysisModes module

1.2.0 – 2025-01-15

  • New: 57 IF-THEN exclusive rules based on NBR 17.225 + WCAG 2.2
  • New: 7 rule groups — ARIA & Roles, Forms, Tables, Links, Media, Structure, Dynamic Content
  • New: QuickFix code suggestions for all 57 new rules
  • New: 21 SEO-critical accessibility rules

1.1.0 – 2025-01-10

  • New: WP-CLI headless scanner with 6 subcommands
  • New: WP-Cron scheduled scans with email notifications
  • New: REST API with 6 endpoints
  • New: 48 NBR 17.225 rules (Brazilian accessibility standard)
  • New: Dashboard gauge with animated SVG arc
  • New: Quick Fix Engine with copy-to-clipboard code snippets
  • New: Onboarding wizard for first-time users
  • Refactored: PHP architecture from monolith to 5+ SRP classes
  • Refactored: JavaScript from monolith to 12+ modular files
