uiXpress v1.5.1 Plugin
uiXpress is a WordPress admin theme that replaces the default backend interface with a streamlined, high‑performance design. Site administrators and developers benefit from a cleaner layout, faster load times, and a set of UI enhancements that simplify navigation. The theme introduces a customizable dashboard, collapsible side menus, and scalable typography, allowing users to tailor the backend appearance without altering core files. Its lightweight architecture ensures minimal impact on server resources while delivering a more polished control panel.
Within typical development workflows, uiXpress integrates seamlessly after a standard WordPress installation. Administrators can activate the theme and immediately notice a responsive admin panel that adapts to various screen sizes, making remote management on tablets or laptops practical. Compatibility with popular plugins such as WooCommerce and Yoast SEO preserves existing menu structures, while the built‑in color picker lets each user assign a personal palette. The theme respects role‑based permissions, displaying only relevant sections for editors, authors, or super admins.

What’s New (Changelog) in uiXpress v1.5.1
= 1.5.1 =
* Released 02nd September 2026 *
* Rebuilt the Menu Creator editor layout and flow
- Split the editor into a structure tree and a stacked inspector instead of the old 3-column settings grid
- Menu name, status, and unsaved state sit in the header; Settings, import, export, restore, and delete live with the menu actions
- The editor opens with nothing selected and a short empty state: click an item to edit it, or Settings for name, status, and audience
- Search, expand/collapse, drag handles, and add-link / add-separator actions are on the tree
- Custom items can be added as children of the selected item; WordPress items can be reset without deleting them
- Import asks before replacing the current menu; leaving with unsaved changes now warns
* Fixed Menu Creator items disappearing or saving empty
- The editor waited for the live WordPress menu and the saved menu at the same time, so a fast save response could treat every WordPress item as removed
- New and existing menus now wait for the WordPress menu before merging, and keep saved items if that menu cannot be read
- Parsing the admin menu for the editor no longer clears icons on the live sidebar
* Fixed Menu Creator tree alignment and settings placement
- Items without a submenu no longer shift left; the expand column stays reserved
- Settings is a header action, not a row in the item tree
* Hardened Menu Creator save and list behaviour
- Saves now send the full menu payload; title and status count as unsaved changes
- Expanding a submenu or opening an item no longer marks the menu dirty
- List search is debounced; deleting a menu from the list asks for confirmation and closes it if it is open
* Kept toolbar link dropdowns above admin content
- WordPress toolbar submenus, nested submenus, and the Add New dropdown now use z-index 9999
* Fixed custom pages loading unstyled when the theme is disabled
- Dashboard, media, plugins, posts, and admin notices now ship their own isolation CSS, the same way Settings already did
- WordPress admin chrome stays native; only the Vue page content is styled
