CHANGELOG

Version 1.1.0

• Added GUI for interfacing with the block, black and white lists
• Added transparentpixel.gif file to the plugin so we no longer need to retrieve it from a remote source
• Reworked plugin so that it installs to "/plugin_root/". This means that the plugin installation will now respect the use of external usb storage automatically.
• REMOVED: legacy web server support (httpd_gargoyle)
• REMOVED: wireless_only capability, gargoyle bridges the wifi and lan networks causing this functionality to break. If someone has an idea for fixing it, i am happy to add it back.

Version 1.0.4

• BUGFIX: Fixed incompatability with the DDNS plugin

Version 1.0.3

• BUGFIX: Fixed incompatability with the Tor plugin
• Fixed localisation strings for ZH-CN and RU

Version 1.0.2

• Fixed localisation strings for time of last update (Thanks Obsy) and PL language file
• BUGFIX: Crash on small memory devices (minor change to how the ad list is retrieved, now uses half the space during setup). End result is still the same. Not a necessary update if you weren't experiencing any problems previously.

Version 1.0.1

• Added German, Norwegian, Polish, Russian and Spanish translations
• Added documentation for how to use the black/whitelist functionality (front end for this will be in a future release)
• Added documentation about how to test the plugin is functioning correctly
• BUGFIX: Workaround for browser based ad-blocking plugins detecting this plugin as malicious, breaking the plugin (Thanks Eric).

Version 1.0

• Initial release
