Breakdance 2.2.0 NULLED

We’re happy to announce Breakdance 2.2, which introduces the brand new Term Loop Builder element, various new data points, and other polish and fixes.

Breakdance 2.2 Beta 1 is available for download in the customer portal. We’d like to extend a special thank you to everyone who beta tests Breakdance releases – your feedback, bug reports, and communications with our team is invaluable and helps us get stable releases out quickly.

Term Loop Builder – Create Custom Layouts For Term Data And Display Them In A List, Grid, Or Slider​

You’ve always been able to create incredible post loops with the Post Loop Builder element, product loops with the Products List element, and create loops from ACF Repeater / Metabox Cloneable Group data with the Repeater Field element. Now, with the Term Loop Builder, you can quickly create beautiful loops of the terms in any taxonomy. Whether you’d like to create a custom design to display a list of categories on a blog post, create a custom design for a list of WooCommerce product categories, add a list of terms in a custom taxonomy to your header or footer, or anything else you can imagine, the Term Loop Builder element is here to make it easy.

Build Term Queries Visually Or Use PHP For Unlimited Flexibility​

With our new query controls for terms, you can visually create a term query. For advanced use cases, use custom PHP directly inside Breakdance to build any term query you want – all values accepted by the WordPress WP_Term_Query class are supported.

New Data Points To Display Term Data Dynamically in Global Blocks​

We’ve added the new Term category for Dynamic Data, allowing you to easily design a Global Block to create a custom layout for your terms. In addition to the default Term fields, you can use custom fields, WooCommerce fields, or ACF/Metabox fields to create anything you can imagine. You can also use the Dynamic Data API to create custom data points that meet your needs.

Loop Elements – Display A Specific Global Block When Empty​

Turn empty Loops into a marketing tool with our new “When Empty” control for Loop elements. When the Loop returns no results, this Global Block will display. Perfect for suggesting popular products, displaying a contact form to gather information on what a visitor may have been looking for, or providing further insight as to why no results are showing.

Breakdance 1.7.2 Now Available – Security Update​

---

Important – if you encounter issues after updating, you should:

• Go to WP Admin > Breakdance > Settings > Tools and click Migrate Meta
• Clear your cache with your server / host / cache plugin

---

Breakdance 1.7.2 is a security update that addresses a vulnerability reported to us by security researcher Francesco Carlucci.
The issue we have addressed is a privilege escalation vulnerability that would allow a user with “contributor” or higher permissions to escalate their privileges to an admin (CVE-2024-4605). This issue impacts anyone that has granted untrusted users Contributor+ access to their WordPress website. It does not affect you if you do not have Contributor+ users on your WordPress website. This issue can only be exploited by a Contributor+ user.
Here’s a quick breakdown of the timeline (UTC−04:00) for this disclosure & patch:

• May 6th, 6:16 AM: Francesco reported the vulnerability to us.
• May 6th, 6:24 AM: We responded and immediately began workshopping solutions with Francesco, vetting the options to find the most effective and secure route.
• May 7th, 12:55 AM: 1.7.2 was sent to Francesco for verification.
• May 7th, 11:36 AM: Francesco verified the fix. We then did final testing.
• May 7th, 7:30 PM: 1.7.2 released, patching this vulnerability.

Breakdance 1.7.1 Now Available – Security Update​

Breakdance 1.7.1 is a security update that addresses a vulnerability reported to us by WordFence, disclosed to them by security researcher Francesco Carlucci.

The issue we have addressed is classed as an Authenticated (Contributor+) Stored Cross-Site Scripting (XSS) vulnerability. In simpler terms, this means those who you granted permission to create and edit posts could put HTML or JS code in those posts, and that HTML or JS code would be output on the frontend of your site.

After being notified, we immediately began working with the WordFence team to come up with an ideal solution. The goal was to keep Breakdance’s expected functionality intact, while adding an extra layer of security for users who might be susceptible to this vulnerability.

The WordFence team proposed a fantastic solution which we vetted, approved, and implemented immediately once we were sure it would work. We submitted our implementation and they quickly confirmed that the changes eliminate the reported vulnerability.

How To Know If You Are Impacted​

You must have done two things for you to be impacted:
1. You let non-administrators create or edit posts or custom fields
2. You then embed that data on the front-end of your site using Breakdance’s dynamic data capabilities
If you have done both of those things, a non-admin could insert HTML or JavaScript into the front-end of your site, which is a vulnerability and shouldn’t be permitted.
If you haven’t done both of those things, you aren’t impacted. If only administrators have the ability to create or edit posts and custom field data, or if you’re not using the dynamic data capabilities of Breakdance on the front-end of your site, this issue does not impact you.

Our Solution​

In Breakdance 1.7.1, any dynamic data from users without the unfiltered_html capability will be filtered by default before it’s displayed on your site.

For those who need more control, we’ve included an option to bypass this filter in Breakdance’s settings under the Advanced tab. This allows you to maintain the functionality you need.

Other Notes​

This specific issue is a great example of how the collaboration between software vendors and security researchers should be handled. WordFence (and Francesco) disclosed a real, valid vulnerability that could be impactful for some users. We worked with them to find a solution and implemented the solution.

We hope that more security researchers and security vendors look to teams like WordFence and people like Francesco as great examples of how to make a real, measurable difference in the WordPress security space.

A huge thank you goes out to Francesco Carlucci for bringing this to our attention. Their proactive approach to web security is exactly what helps keep the internet a safer place for everyone. As a token of our gratitude, we’ve rewarded Francesco with $500 for the responsible disclosure.

Breakdance 1.7 includes a number of important new features, and a large number of tweaks, enhancements, and general quality of life updates.

We’re very excited to announce that the first beta of Breakdance 1.7 is now available for testing. You can find the beta download in the customer portal.

Read on to find out more about what’s in store in Breakdance 1.7!

Build Massive WooCommerce Stores with Breakdance​

New in 1.7, we’ve heavily optimized Breakdance to operate on WooCommerce stores with enormous product inventories and extremely large taxonomy term counts. Stores with huge numbers of products or those dealing with a large number of category and tag combinations can now operate smoothly without any performance hiccups. This is achieved through improved data handling and query optimization, ensuring that large-scale operations do not compromise the site’s speed and user experience.

This makes Breakdance an ideal solution for high-volume online retailers seeking a robust and reliable e-commerce platform. Looking ahead, this update positions Breakdance not just as a tool for current needs but as a future-proof solution for expanding online stores. As businesses grow and diversify their offerings, Breakdance will continue to provide a stable and efficient platform, adaptable to evolving market demands and customer expectations. Our commitment to scalability and performance makes Breakdance a valuable asset for ambitious WooCommerce store owners aiming to scale their operations seamlessly.

Introducing The Template Marketplace​

We’re super excited to foster a rich ecosystem around Breakdance. One of the first steps toward that is the new Template Marketplace, which is launching alongside the first beta of Breakdance 1.7.

The Template Marketplace is a complete list of community-created and native templates available for use via Breakdance’s design library.

You can browse the list of templates and find beautiful designs to propel your site to the next level instantly.

To further enable the distribution and sale of third-party templates, we’ve introduced a few enhancements to our design library features.

Hide The “Copy Section” Button​

On sites designated as design sets, visitors are presented with a convenient “copy section” button while browsing the site on the front-end.

For premium template sellers, this needs to be hidden for any users who haven’t already paid for the design.

In Breakdance 1.7, we’ve made this button optional and disabled by default.

Password Protect Your Design Sets​

Previously, it was difficult to protect premium design sets from non-paying customers.

In Breakdance 1.7, you can password protect access to your design sets easily.

The password you designate can then be distributed to paying customers via your sales platform or other means.

Add Alternate & Static Items In Repeater Layouts​

Breakdance features stellar support for repeatable content from plugins like Advanced Custom Fields and Meta Box via its Repeater element.

In Breakdance 1.7, you can now designate alternate Global Blocks and even static content to be shown interstitially within your Repeater element, enabling a vast array of creative and effective layouts.

Edit Rich Text Your Way​

In Breakdance 1.7, we’ve introduced the ability to edit Rich Text elements with the TinyMCE editor.

This feature was highly demanded and provides an incredible amount of flexibility when authoring rich text content in Breakdance.

Developer API For Global Settings​

Developers rejoice! You can now add your own Global Settings to Breakdance’s Global Settings areas via our new Global Settings API.

You can learn more about the API and view examples at https://breakdance.com/documentation/developers/global-settings-api/.
