Nectarblocks Version 2.5 focuses on giving you more control over how content is displayed, improving the dynamic data experience, and ensuring full compatibility with WordPress 6.9.

More Flexible Display Conditions

We've introduced expanded display condition options:

• Global Sections can now be limited to specific posts or taxonomy terms.
• Theme Builder Templates can also be targeted by taxonomy terms for more refined template logic.
• We’ve added new documentation explaining how Dynamic Data display conditions work, making it easier to implement them across your site.

These changes give you more precise control over where and how template elements appear.

Dynamic Data & Post Grid Improvements

Several enhancements make dynamic content more reliable and easier to work with:

• Dynamic Media Sources in Post Grid: You can now pull dynamic images or videos for each item.
• Dynamic Source Field Filtering: Fields are now filtered by type (image/video), reducing clutter and improving the selection experience.
• Post Grid Side Layout Content Repeater: You can now populate both columns of the side layout with any meta-field content, arranged in any order.
