## Description

Aureliquo – Quotazioni Oro e Argento adds a white-label valuation flow for gold 
and silver. Calculations are performed on the WordPress server, while commercial
margins, accepted purities, weight limits and quote-lock duration can be configured
separately for each metal.

The landing-page entry screen keeps the calculator inactive until the visitor explicitly
selects gold or silver. Before that choice, the plugin does not request market prices
and does not start its refresh timer.

Main features:

 * Gold standards: 24, 22, 20, 18, 14 and 9 karat.
 * Silver standards: 999, 925, 900, 835 and 800 fineness.
 * Separate margins, weight bands, minimum and maximum weights, quote prefixes, 
   conditions and lock duration for each metal.
 * Server-side price retrieval and calculations. Browser-supplied market prices 
   are never trusted.
 * Private quote requests available only to administrators.
 * Review step, email verification code and HTML tickets for the customer and store.
 * Request statuses, internal notes, statistics dashboard and provider monitoring.
 * Configurable retention and automatic personal-data anonymization.
 * Signed financial snapshot to detect later changes to quote data.
 * Nonces, origin checks, request-size limits, rate limiting, idempotency and strict
   input validation.

Available shortcodes:

 * `[aureliquo_metalli]` follows the metals enabled in the plugin settings.
 * `[aureliquo_oro]` displays only the gold calculator when gold is enabled.
 * `[aureliquo_argento]` displays only the silver calculator when silver is enabled.

### External services

This plugin connects to Gold-API.com to retrieve the current reference price of 
gold or silver in euros. The market price is required to calculate the indicative
valuation shown by the calculator and to let an administrator test the configured
price provider.

A request is sent from the WordPress server only in these situations:

 * after a visitor explicitly starts the gold or silver calculator and no valid 
   cached price is available;
 * when an active calculator refreshes after the configured cache period; or
 * when an administrator manually runs the provider diagnostic tool.

Each request contains the selected market symbol (XAU for gold or XAG for silver)
and the requested currency (EUR) as part of the API URL. No customer name, email
address, telephone number, comment, consent choice, entered weight, selected purity
or quote-request data is sent to Gold-API.com.

As with a normal server-to-server HTTP request, Gold-API.com can receive technical
connection data such as the website server IP address, request time and the plugin
HTTP user-agent. The user-agent includes the plugin version and the website home
URL so that the provider can identify the source of the request.

Service provider: Gold-API.com

 * API documentation: https://gold-api.com/docs
 * Terms of Service: https://gold-api.com/terms
 * Privacy Policy: https://gold-api.com/privacy

Market data is indicative and is not a tradable, settlement-grade or investment-
advice quote. Site administrators are responsible for confirming that their use 
complies with the provider’s current terms.

### Source code and build instructions

All PHP, JavaScript and CSS included in the distributed plugin are maintained as
human-readable source files. The plugin does not include minified bundles, compiled
JavaScript or CSS, vendored third-party libraries, or generated production assets.

The maintained source files are included directly in the plugin package, including:

 * `assets/js/frontend.js`
 * `assets/js/admin.js`
 * `assets/css/frontend.css`
 * `assets/css/admin.css`

No npm, Composer, webpack or other build step is required. To create an installable
package, place the `aureliquo-gold-silver-quotes` directory in a ZIP archive without
transforming the source files.

### Privacy

When a visitor submits a quote request, the plugin can store the name, email address,
telephone number, optional comment, consent choices and the financial snapshot required
to manage that request. Quote requests are stored as private WordPress content and
are visible only to administrators with the required capability.

The plugin supports configurable retention periods, automatic anonymization and 
optional deletion of plugin data during uninstall. The site owner remains responsible
for publishing an appropriate privacy notice and selecting lawful retention settings.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin folder to `/wp-content/plugins/` or install the ZIP from **Plugins
    > Add New > Upload Plugin**.
 2. Activate **Aureliquo – Quotazioni Oro e Argento**.
 3. Open the plugin settings and configure the business identity, contacts, metals,
    margins, quote conditions, email sender and privacy options.
 4. Add `[aureliquo_metalli]`, `[aureliquo_oro]` or `[aureliquo_argento]` to the intended
    page.
 5. Test the full calculation, email-verification and quote-recovery flow before publishing
    the page.

## FAQ

### Does the plugin contact price APIs on every page view?

No. The calculator remains inactive on the entry screen. The first price request
starts only after the visitor chooses gold or silver. Subsequent requests use the
configured WordPress cache and refresh interval.

### Are calculations trusted from JavaScript?

No. The server retrieves the market price and recalculates the valuation. Values
sent by the browser are validated and are not accepted as authoritative prices.

### Is the displayed amount a guaranteed purchase price?

No. It is an indicative valuation based on the visitor’s declarations and the configured
commercial rules. Weight, purity and authenticity must be verified by the business.

### Who can view submitted requests?

Requests use a private custom post type and are available only to administrators
with the plugin’s required capability.

## Changelog

#### 0.6.2

 * Removed the XAUS fallback service because dedicated Terms of Service and Privacy
   Policy pages were not available for disclosure.
 * Expanded the Gold-API.com external-service disclosure with the exact purpose,
   request timing, transmitted data and legal-policy links.
 * Moved standalone ticket print styles from a compressed JavaScript string into
   the human-readable source stylesheet.
 * Reformatted the administration stylesheet as readable source CSS instead of a
   compressed one-line asset.
 * Documented that the distributed JavaScript and CSS are maintained as readable
   source files and require no build process.
 * Made every plugin-owned option and transient prefix visible directly at the WordPress
   storage API call site, including `aureliquo_email_gate_`, and added uninstall
   cleanup for dynamic gate options.

#### 0.6.1

 * Prefixed all uninstall-scope variables to satisfy the WordPress coding standards.
 * Prefixed the bootstrap environment-status variable.
 * Kept the new `aureliquo-gold-silver-quotes` text domain; a temporary mismatch
   is expected until WordPress.org reserves the requested new slug.

#### 0.6.0

 * Renamed the plugin to Aureliquo – Quotazioni Oro e Argento with the requested
   unique slug and text domain.
 * Replaced the former three-character prefix across PHP declarations, options, 
   transients, post meta, hooks, AJAX actions, assets and markup.
 * Replaced embedded admin style tags with properly enqueued stylesheet assets.
 * Removed the nonessential dashboard notice and limited administration assets to
   the plugin screens.
 * Renamed public shortcodes to `[aureliquo_metalli]`, `[aureliquo_oro]` and `[aureliquo_argento]`.

#### 0.5.9

 * Prepared the production package for WordPress.org review.
 * Added complete GPLv2-or-later headers, license URI, copyright and author attribution
   to undesign | Umberto Napoletano.
 * Added WordPress 7.0 compatibility metadata and an English directory readme.
 * Removed development and QA applications from the distributable ZIP.
 * Hardened nonce documentation, input sanitization, output escaping and uploaded
   JSON handling.
 * Added transparent documentation for external market-data services and privacy
   behavior.
 * Removed a backup market-data provider whose current terms are not suitable for
   this white-label commercial use.

#### 0.5.8

 * Added a landing-page entry screen with an explicit choice between gold and silver.
 * Prevented API requests and refresh timers before the visitor starts the calculator.
 * Opened the calculator directly on the selected metal and simplified the journey
   to three steps.
 * Improved accessibility, focus handling, mobile layout and reduced-motion support.

#### 0.5.7

 * Added back-end selection for both metals, gold only or silver only.
 * Added `[aureliquo_oro]` and `[aureliquo_argento]` alongside `[aureliquo_metalli]`.
 * Removed the redundant metal step when only one metal is available.
 * Rejected server requests for disabled metals.
