Changelog

3.5.1 (2026-05-22)

Fixed

  • Fixed Related Products on blog posts showing products from other websites on the storefront. The related products block now respects the current store view's website assignment and hides disabled products, while the admin post edit form continues to show all linked products regardless of store.

3.5.0 (2026-05-18)

Features

  • Tree display mode for the Category widget — the Category list widget can now render categories as a collapsible hierarchical tree instead of a flat list. A new context filter option lets the widget show only the branch relevant to the current page (e.g. the current category's descendants).

Improvements

  • Storefront and admin interface translations now cover 15 locales: Arabic, Czech, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Dutch, Polish, Brazilian Portuguese, Portuguese, Swedish, Turkish, Ukrainian, and Simplified Chinese.

ℹ️ Requires mirasvit/module-comment 1.2.0 or newer. Once installed, blog post comments gain a commenter email field, an optional admin setting to require an email from guests, reply-notification emails for thread participants, and a Comments link in the Blog MX admin page menu.

3.4.3 (2026-04-29)

Improvements

  • Added translations for German (de_DE), French (fr_FR), Italian (it_IT), and Ukrainian (uk_UA). Admin panel and frontend text now display in these languages when the corresponding store locale is configured.
  • Widget option labels in the admin panel (Yes/No, filter type, sort order, display mode) are now fully translatable.
  • Corrected widget names in the admin widget picker: "Rss feed" is now "RSS Feed" and "Table of content" is now "Table of Contents".

Fixed

  • Fixed the Related Posts widget rendering as an empty block when a post has no related posts or shared tags — the block is now hidden entirely in that case.
  • Fixed breadcrumb links on Hyvä-themed stores: the current-page breadcrumb item (post, category, author, or tag) was linking to a 404 system URL instead of the correct page URL.
  • Fixed widget installation failing when theme IDs saved in configuration no longer exist in the database (for example, after a theme is uninstalled or the database is migrated to a fresh environment).

3.4.2 (2026-04-06)

Features

  • Per-entity robots control — Each post, category, author, and tag now has its own Robots field in the edit form, letting you set INDEX/NOINDEX and FOLLOW/NOFOLLOW per entity. A new "Default robots for blog pages" setting under Stores Configuration Blog MX SEO sets the default for all blog pages, independently of Magento's site-wide robots setting. ⚠️ Adds a robots column to the blog_post, blog_category, blog_author, and blog_tag tables — run bin/magento setup:upgrade after updating.

Improvements

  • Compatible with Magento 2.4.9.
  • Added a "Show excerpt on post view page" option under Stores Configuration Blog MX Posts. When enabled, the post excerpt is prepended to the post body on the post detail page.

Fixed

  • Fixed post count label in the posts list toolbar showing "Items" instead of "Posts".
  • Fixed the post preview creating a new database record (and wasting auto-increment IDs) on every click. The preview window is now reused between clicks and no unnecessary database records are created.
