Core General Settings

To access these options, navigate to Changeloger > Settings in your WordPress dashboard. The General tab controls critical functional parameters that dictate how the plugin interacts with your site’s infrastructure. Key settings include the Items Per Page configuration, which defines the pagination limit for your releases and feedback lists. You can set this value anywhere from 1 to 100, with a default of 10, ensuring your frontend remains performant even as your release history grows.

Branding and Display Options

Changeloger offers unified branding controls to maintain a professional look. The Primary Brand Color setting is particularly important as it serves as the main accent color for buttons, badges, tabs, and interactive elements across all Changeloger modules. By default, this is set to #6366f1, but you can update it to match your site’s specific color palette to ensure a cohesive user experience.

Additionally, you can manage the visibility of the plugin’s branding using the Show Embed Watermark toggle. When enabled, a small ‘Powered by Changeloger’ link appears at the bottom of embedded content, helping to promote the tool while maintaining a clean aesthetic.

Managing and Backing Up Settings

For administrators managing complex deployments, Changeloger includes built-in utility functions within the settings panel. You can easily export your entire plugin configuration as a JSON file, which is highly recommended before performing site migrations or major updates. Similarly, the import functionality allows you to quickly restore your preferred settings, minimizing downtime and setup time when deploying the plugin across multiple WordPress environments.
