**This is a list detailing changes for all the past Jetpack releases. For more information about the current release, see [the readme](https://github.com/Automattic/jetpack/blob/master/readme.txt).**

= 7.3 =

* Release date: May 07, 2019
* Release post: https://wp.me/p1moTy-ipR

**Major Enhancements**
* We streamlined the default features of Jetpack to make the "out of the box" experience better.
* WordPress 5.2 will add a new Site Health section to your dashboard. Jetpack already integrates with it, letting you know that your Jetpack features are working!

**Enhancements**

* Admin Experience: Improve our "just in time messages" and "Recommended Features" for new sites setting up Jetpack for the first time.
* Admin Experience: Add an "About Jetpack" page to let folks know more about Automattic, the company behind WordPress.com and Jetpack.
* Admin Experience: Add a link to the full list of Jetpack features in the footer of Jetpack dashboard pages.
* Backups: Add SSH CLI command for hosting integration support.
* Block Editor: Compose posts with the Block Editor posts via WordPress.com for their Jetpack sites!
* Block Editor: Transform core images to Tiled Galleries or Slideshow blocks and back!
* Block Editor: Provide an option to disable particular extensions.
* Contact Form: Add a "grunion_after_message_sent" hook for after a form submission is e-mailed. Thanks Tim Nolte for contributing to Jetpack!
* Contact Form: Do not prefill for administrators on their own sites.
* Grammar and Spelling: Remove from Jetpack. We've chekced the spelling alot over the years, but now time to retire.
* Membership Block: Add a new block behind the JETPACK_BETA_BLOCKS constant. Stay tuned!
* Photon: Remove jQuery dependency for photon.js. Same Image CDN awesomeness with less overhead.
* Portfolios: Remove the "Portfolio Items" description that would display on some themes.
* Sharing: Add a "sharing_ajax_action" to to allow other plugins and scripts to render sharing buttons. Thanks Darren Cooney!
* Social Icons: Add Stack Overflow support. Welcome to the Jetpack contributor ranks Muhammad Osama Arshad!
* Sync: Report details on what is queued up to sync on the status endpoint.
* Sync: Improve importer detection so we can better handle cases of imported content.
* Sync: Add an option to disable sync for an entire network.
* Sync: Adds new WP-CLI Jetpack Sync commands: settings, enable, disable, reset.
* Testimonials: Sort by menu order to give site owners more flexibility for display. Thanks Felipe Elia!
* Tiled Galleries: Add improved layout for when images are in the process of uploading.
* Tiled Galleries: Add responsive imaging (srcset) support to the Tiled Gallery block.
* WordAds: Add location id (e.g. under the post) to the ad calls.
* WordPress.com API: Add behind the scene improvements to support the WordPress.com site management experience.
* WordPress.com API: Add the public property to the Post Types endpoint response.
* WordPress.com Menu Bar: Redesign to direct navigation items to WordPress.com instead of duplicating experiences.

**Improved compatibility**

* Blocks: Use the Editor's "BlockIcon" for native placeholder icons instead of custom CSS.
* Blocks: Drop i18n wrapper, use @wordpress/i18n directly. This means it will be easier and faster to provide translated bits of text.
* Blocks: Move block development to the Jetpack repo. You shouldn't see any changes, but this helps us make Jetpack Blocks better faster.
* Block Editor: Improve the experience of using the Block Editor via the WordPress.com dashboard.
* Browser Compatibility: Remove legacy code for Internet Explorer 10.
* Coding Standards: Update our code to match the latest WordPress coding standards in various places.
* Likes and Sharing: Add Likes and Sharing settings as a Block Editor extension.
* Related Posts: Improve the internationalization of the "in X category" text.
* Simple Payments: Easily convert old shortcode-style Simple Payment buttons to a block.

**Bug fixes**

* Admin Dashboard: Improve headings when searching for Jetpack features.
* Admin Dashboard: Remove legacy views no longer used in Jetpack.
* Blocks: Fix some design oddities in Form and Contact Info blocks.
* Carousel: Allow any title to be displayed. We used to try to be smart about default file names, but that caused some problems.
* Development Mode: Display fewer sections of the Admin Dashboard. Some simply don't apply in Development Mode.
* Google Plus: Remove from Social Icons and Sharing since the service has retired.
* Internationalization: Translate various sections missed, such as "just in time messages" and block search keywords.
* Manage: Remove Manage as an independent module. These features have been fully integrated for a few versions now.
* Multisite: Restore ability to connect subsites via the Network Admin.
* Open Graph Tags: Prevent a PHP notice on some author pages.
* Sharing: Improve accessibility of sharing buttons by increasing contrast ratio. Props https://titan.as
* Sharing: Fix the alignment of the official buttons for LinkedIn and Pinterest.
* Shortcodes: Retire the Google Video, Jetpack Subscribe, and Digg shortcodes.
* Slideshow: Fix a JavaScript error that occurs when block is first added.
* Slideshow: Add slideshow images to Open Graph tags when using the Slideshow block.
* Social Icons: Remove Google+, uses the generic Google now.
* Subscriptions: Correct conflicts that were possible with the checkboxes after a comment submission form.
* Theme Tools: Ensure Featured Content tag is retained on a post after saving. Thanks Anis Ladram, you're a Jetpack contributor now!
* Uninstalling Jetpack: Prevent notice about JETPACK__PLUGIN_DIR already being defined when programmatically uninstalling Jetpack. (But why would you uninstall?)
* Widgets: Remove the Cookies & Consents Banner (not just hide it) after consenting. Thanks Tony Tettinger!
