Easy access of the Genesis What’s New Admin overview page – not only on updates but everytime. Makes sense, heh? 🙂
Get Access to Genesis What’s New Admin Page
This simple & lightweight plugin has currently only one task: bring you access to the “What’s New” page for Genesis Framework. You can access it everytime in the left-hand admin menu under “Genesis > What’s New”. (Before this plugin it did only show up when you did an auto update of Genesis.)
Please note: The plugin requires the Genesis Theme Framework, a paid premium product released by StudioPress/ WPEngine, Inc. (via studiopress.com).

Idea Behind / Philosophy
Really simple stuff: bring a link to an already existing Genesis admin page to the left-hand admin menu. Result: “Genesis > What’s New”

NOTE: Only works with Genesis Framework as the parent theme. This is a paid premium product by StudioPress/ WPEngine, Inc., available via studiopress.com.
Installation of Plugin:
- Installing alternatives:
- via Admin Dashboard: Go to Plugins > Add New, search for “Genesis What’s New Info”, click “install”
- OR via direct ZIP upload: Upload the ZIP package via Plugins > Add New > Upload in your WP Admin
- OR via FTP upload: Upload
genesis-whats-new-info
folder to the/wp-content/plugins/
directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
- Go to the “Genesis” admin page and you’ll see a new sub menu item “What’s New” – which shows you the recent updates for your installed version branch of Genesis Framework.
Note: The “Genesis Framework” is required for this plugin in order to work. If you don’t own a copy it yet, this premium parent theme has to be bought. More info about that you’ll find here: https://ddwb.me/getgenesis
ხდკ
- Where does the content come from?
-
The content of the “What’s New” page comes straight from Genesis core! This plugin only hooks in a few links to this already existing admin page.
- Why a new meta box on Genesis Settings?
-
The existing “Information” meta box from Genesis core has not much useful info. The new “At a Glance” box brings more info and links, also for the active child theme.
- More info on Translations?
-
- English – default, always included
- German (de_DE): Deutsch – immer dabei! 🙂
- For custom and update-secure language files please upload them to
/wp-content/languages/genesis-whats-new-info/
(just create this folder) – This enables you to use fully custom translations that won’t be overridden on plugin updates. Also, complete custom English wording is possible with that as well, just use a language file likegenesis-whats-new-info-en_US.mo/.po
to achieve that (for creating one see the following tools).
Easy WordPress.org plugin translation platform with GlotPress platform: Translate “Genesis What’s New Info”…
Note: All my plugins are internationalized/ translateable by default. This is very important for all users worldwide. So please contribute your language to the plugin to make it even more useful. For translating and validating I recommend the awesome “Poedit Editor”, which works fine on Windows, macOS and Linux.
