Simple History 4.7.0 – new logo and shortcut to settings

Today I’m happy to announce the release of Simple History 4.7.0.

🆕 The most notable changes in this version is a new logotype for Simple History. You can see it on the dashboard widget and on the history page. The logo is made by Swedish art director Anna Ågren. The logo is simple and clear, just like the plugin is.

🔗 This version also adds a shortcut to the settings page, both from the dashboard widget and from the history page. Previously the settings page was only accessible from the settings menu and probably not that many people had found their way to it. This change makes the settings page easier to find. Also, it will be called “Settings & Tools” from now on, because it also contains tools like Export and Debug.
