1.1.1

  • Files updated: constant-contact-api-widget.php, readme.txt, /admin/options.php
  • Short story: Improved speed.
    Long story: Fixes major potential bug - if you have noticed your site takes a long time to start loading, it may be because the plugin had been trying to access the Constant Contact API for the list values twice per page load. This structure has been totally revamped, and now the Constant Contact API is only accessed once upon changing settings. This release improves load time considerably by storing that information in the WordPress database. Added cc_widget_lists_array option to store Constant Contact lists, so that the API doesn't need to be called every page load. Now, API is only called when the plugin settings are saved.
  • Wrapped the List Selection Title for the multi-select form element in a label tag, and removed line break.

1.1.0.1

  • Removed line break (<br />) before widget form to improve display of widget signup form
  • Fixed widget description and title display issues by renaming variables from $title to $widget_title and $description to $widget_description.
  • Converted some settings fields to <textarea> to make editing easier.

  • Adds error messages if username & password aren't properly configured & working
  • Replaced $_SESSION with $GLOBALS for servers with register_globals issues
  • Improved widget error messages
    • Converted widget errors to list items (<LI>s), instead of items separated with <BR /> for better standards compliance
    • Wrapped errors in <LABEL>s so that clicking an error will take users to the input
  • Improved redirection upon widget submission; now properly redirects to the page the user was on, instead of the home page
  • Added filters for more control over widget output:
    • apply_filters('constant_contact_form', $output); to widget output
    • apply_filters('constant_contact_form_success', $success);
    • apply_filters('constant_contact_form_description', $description);
    • apply_filters('constant_contact_form_errors', $errors);
    • apply_filters('constant_contact_form_submit', $submit_button);
