Feb 1, 2026February 2026 highlights for greenpeace/planet4-master-theme: Delivered three core initiatives focused on UX, performance, and maintainability. Admin UX cleanup suppresses non-essential notices in the admin area (WPML and plugin notices) with production-only rules and consolidated CSS, reducing clutter for content editors. Performance improvements remove obsolete Google Fonts and optimize analytics caching, speeding page loads and simplifying config (cache TTL increased to 24 hours, analytics data streamlined). Codebase cleanup removes the P4 Blocks feature flag, including a DB migration and code path simplifications, with tests updated to reflect asset build changes. These changes collectively reduce admin noise, improve performance, and lower maintenance risk for future releases.
