This is a significant update that introduces a completely new design of the upload form using Material UI.
Material UI is a React implementation of Google’s Material Design and the new elements of the upload form have been entirely created with the latest version of React and JSX.
This feature has been made possible thanks to the templating mechanism of the plugin, which was introduced in version 4.0.0, and allows the UI of the plugin to be implemented using any JavaScript framework, like React or Angular.
The incorporation of Material UI in the plugin required the use of advanced CSS, HTML and JavaScript features (like shadow DOM, templates, slots and cascade layers), which are only supported by the latest versions of the most well-known browsers.
A detailed guide how to activate and configure the Material UI theme of the plugin can be found here.
You can find more details in the Release Notes of the plugin’s support page.
Users can update to the latest version using the Update feature of the Plugins section of their Dashboard.
