We are starting to get some insights into the thinking behind and direction of Oxygen 6. Totally developer focused.

The Oxygen team released a full rewrite of the popular Oxygen page builder. Is shares a lot of code with Breakdance but has a UI for web professionals interested in a class first workflow. The upgrade is not backwards compatible with previous versions, though the “classic” version will continue to be supported. It is free for current Oxygen license holds as well as for Breakdance users with an active license.

Oxygen 4.9.1 is mainly a fix release, but it does have a new feature, the ability to copy and paste display conditions between elements.

Oxygen 4.9 was released. It includes a new right click context menu and enhancements to the Advanced Query Builder.

Beta 1 for Oxygen 4.9 is available. It adds a right-click menu for common actions, the Advanced Query now supports multiple properties for the orderby parameter, and it is now possible to add arbitrary, custom query parameters using the Advanced Query option.

Oxygen released version 4.8.3 which is a security update. The security issue addressed is a privilege escalation vulnerability that would allow a user with “contributor” or higher permissions to escalate their privileges to an admin (CVE-2024-4662). This issue impacts anyone that has granted untrusted users Contributor+ access to their WordPress website. It does not affect you if you do not have Contributor+ users on your WordPress website.

Security vulnerabilities were reported for two WordPress page builders – Oxygen and Breakdance. In an unusual move the developers pushed back. This article has the details.

Oxygen 4.8 was released and the main feature is the Navigator, which allows you to quickly switch pages, templates, and blocks from within the editor. That addresses a pain point when using Oxygen.

The Oxygen Builder 4.8 beta is available. The main feature is a new navigator for quickly switching between templates, pages, and posts. Being able to switch from within the editor greatly cuts down on the time. The other feature is an improvement to break point unit inheritance for better consistency.
