New:
- Added “News & Updates” Dashboard widget – only viewable for (Super) Admins, can easily be disabled via “Screen Options” (top right corner) – Note: settings integration will follow, though

- Added shortcut to plugin’s settings in Multisite Network Admin (only to the main site of the Network, though)
- Added shortcuts to plugin’s settings tabs on the Elementor “General Settings” admin page (as extra tab there)
- For ClassicPress installs added new “Toolbar Extras” info page under “Security” admin menu (for ClassicPress v1.1.0+)

of 800px (much better on bigger screens/ viewports…!) - Refinements for the Plugin Manager for Add-Ons – info screens, minimum version management, descriptions
