**[IMPROVED in Free and Pro] Security Hardening**: Various changes were made to harden the security of the following modules: SVG Upload, AVIF Upload, Admin Menu Organizer, Limit Login Attempts, Custom Admin / Frontend CSS, Insert , and Code, Obfuscate Author Slugs, Email Delivery, Contact Form, Password Protection, Maintenance Mode.
**[IMPROVED in Free and Pro] Utilities >> Password Protection**:
REST API (/wp-json/...) and admin-ajax.php are now gated by the password protection. Only after a valid password is entered, will these become accessible again.
Unlock cookies are now HttpOnly and Secure on HTTPS, so they are not readable by frontend JS and are not sent over HTTP.
Site Backup and Migration loopback workers (HMAC-authenticated admin-ajax actions and the REST backup/worker route) are excluded from the gate so server-side backup operations can run.
**[IMPROVED in Free and Pro] Utilities >> Maintenance Mode**:
REST API (/wp-josn/...), admin-ajax.php and XML-RPC now returns 503 HTTP response ("This site is currently under maintenance") when maintenance mode is enabled.
Site Backup and Migration loopback workers (HMAC-authenticated admin-ajax actions and the REST backup/worker route) are excluded from the gate so server-side backup operations can run.
**[IMPROVED in Free and Pro] Utilities >> Contact Form**: Added submission retention period settings inside "Advanced Settings", including a "Do not store" option that still sends notification emails. The default is "Forever".
**[FIXED in Free] Optimizations >> Image Upload Control**: Fixed a regression introduced in v9.1.1 that causes transparent PNGs to be converted to JPG when WebP conversion is not enabled. Props to Richard S. and Brady M. for reporting the issue.

Custom Field Group: Added "ASE Repeater" element in Oxygen Classic, it' snow possible to work with a repeater field's sub-fields values directly in Oxygen Classic.
Custom Field Groups: Fixed an issue that causes newly added fields that are added after a nested repeater field and without repositioning before clicking "Update", are getting their order scrambled upon successful save.
Custom Field Group: the fullscreen button in WYSIWYG field is now hidden when in the block editor as it's very challenging to get fullscreen view right within the iframe environment of the block editor.
