Browser Extension enhancements

Improved icon states in browser toolbar

We introduced a disabled state for the Browser Extension icon in the browser toolbar, that makes it easier for users to identify whether the extension is enabled or disabled on a webpage.

• Enabled: The icon appears in light blue.

• Disabled: The icon appears in grey.

This update helps prevent confusion when users forget that they previously disabled the Extension on a specific page and wonder why it does not open the next time they visit.

Browser Extension

Quick Scan progress bar

We replaced the static spinner on the Quick Scan screen with a progress bar. This enhancement provides users with clear visibility into the scan’s progress, and shows which stage it is in and how far along it has progressed.

Removal of legacy score calculation

The legacy compliance score calculation option has been fully removed from the Optimize UI. This feature previously allowed users to use an older method of calculating compliance scores in Acquia Optimize.

As part of this change, we have also removed the Account Settings menu in Admin Settings, where users previously enabled or disabled legacy score calculations.
