3.1.0-pl
- Security: cron scripts run from CLI only; XSS in the manager and MODX tag injection in emails via file names fixed; Telegram token no longer leaks to logs; unused Update processors removed
- Exclude patterns now work like .gitignore (masks, any depth)
- No false alerts when hash algorithm, scan dirs or excludes change, or on the first scan
- Core check: auto-downloads the reference for a new MODX version, notifies when the check cannot run, respects "enabled"
- Corrupted downloaded MODX archive is detected and downloaded again
- Protection against parallel runs of cron scripts and core download
