Calendora Banners

Changelog

1.6.4

• Improved WordPress.org coding standards compliance.
• Added consistent plugin-specific prefixes for public identifiers and stored data. Existing campaigns, settings, name-day overrides, test mode and evergreen order are migrated automatically on the first admin page load after the update.
• Shortcodes are renamed and the old names no longer work. The banner shortcode is now [caleba_banners], and the name-day shortcodes are [caleba_today_names], [caleba_tomorrow_names], [caleba_day_plus_2_names] and [caleba_day_plus_3_names]. Update any page that used the previous names.
• Hardened output escaping throughout the admin interface.
• Removed redundant manual translation loading.
• Updated the public package to rely on WordPress.org translation delivery.
• Corrected the feature list: the plugin imports campaigns from JSON and lets you download the bundled starter file, but it does not export existing campaigns.
• Preserved existing campaign scheduling, slider, name-day, Test Mode and Elementor behaviour.

1.6.3

• Fixed: when a toggle switch was turned on, the knob jumped three pixels upwards and stuck out above the switch, so the control looked misaligned. Off state was fine. The cause was a rule in WordPress core’s own admin stylesheet that the plugin was not overriding in the checked state.
• Fixed: the knob also stopped a few pixels short of the right edge when switched on. It now travels the full distance.
• Added a browser-based test that measures the switch geometry in both states, so this cannot come back unnoticed.

1.6.2

• Fixed: turning on “Use theme colors for navigation” still showed the arrows in the plugin’s own colours. The theme mode now declares no colours at all, so your theme’s button styling finally applies.
• Fixed: the slider dots kept hard-coded colours in both modes. They now follow the selected mode like the arrows and the pause control.
• Fixed: vertical alignment of the toggle switches in settings rows, this time without depending on a container property a more specific rule can override.
• Fixed: added breathing room between the “Save settings” button and the Test mode section below it.
• Neutral mode, mobile behaviour, keyboard access, ARIA labels and reduced-motion handling are unchanged.

1.6.1

• Fixed: slider arrows and the pause control picked up colours from the active site theme. Theme button rules are more specific than the plugin’s own, and the admin preview has no theme stylesheet, which is why the preview looked right and the front end did not.
• Navigation now has its own neutral styling, scoped to the banner so a theme cannot override it.
• Added a setting, “Use theme colors for navigation”, off by default, for people who want the theme to style the arrows and pause control.
• Fixed spacing of the save button in Test Mode and on the Name days screen.
• Fixed vertical alignment of the toggle switches in settings rows.
• Mobile behaviour, keyboard access, ARIA labels and reduced-motion handling are unchanged.

1.6.0

• Renamed the product to Calendora Banners. The technical prefixes, the post type and the [smart_campaigns] shortcode are unchanged, so existing pages keep working.
• Security: call-to-action links are now escaped as URLs, so schemes such as javascript: or data:text/html can no longer reach the front end. Previously they were escaped only as attributes.
• Security: imported JSON is validated much more strictly. Event dates must exist in the calendar, one-off campaigns need a real date window, and link schemes are checked. Uploaded files are verified as genuine HTTP uploads.
• Security: image addresses are encoded for the CSS context, so they cannot break out of url() and inject their own declarations.
• Security: request data is unslashed correctly. Brand names and name-day overrides containing an apostrophe no longer accumulate backslashes on each save.
• Security: campaign actions verify the post type first, so a plugin action can no longer delete or overwrite an unrelated WordPress post.
• Security: data migrations now require the manage_options capability.
• Removed all content specific to the original client. The starter campaigns are now neutral commercial examples.
• The interface is fully internationalised, with English source strings and a Polish translation.
• Accessibility: the carousel can be paused, stops on focus and on touch, and does not auto-advance for visitors who ask for reduced motion.
• Accessibility: inactive slides are hidden from screen readers, and the carousel exposes a proper region role.
• Settings: a new “Delete all plugin data on uninstall” option, off by default, so removing the plugin keeps your campaigns unless you say otherwise.
• Added LICENSE, plugin metadata required by the plugin directory, and a WordPress.org readiness contract to the test suite.
• Fixed a defect in the test runner that reported some failing contracts as passing.

1.5.5

• Fixed: bold text in the banner headline picked up an uncontrolled weight of 900 and switched to a different cut of the typeface.
• Bold weights are now explicit: 800 in the headline, 700 in the description.
• Bold, italic and underline each change one property only; the typeface, size and letter spacing stay as they were.
• Unformatted content looks exactly as before.

1.5.4

• A small formatting toolbar above the headline and description: bold, italic, underline and line break.
• The headline is a multi-line field, and Enter inserts a real line break.
• Only strong, em, u and line breaks are allowed; every other tag is stripped.
• Content is filtered on save and again on render, so older records are safe too.
• No TinyMCE and no full WYSIWYG editor.
• The dashboard counts what is on air using the same helper as the front end.
• Fixed: content containing an ampersand came back into the editor correctly.

1.5.3

• Drag-and-drop ordering for evergreen campaigns, with a handle on each card.
• The order is saved without reloading the page, with a confirmation message.
• Move up and move down buttons for keyboard use; they work without JavaScript too.
• An on-air marker on the campaigns that are actually being shown, with their slot number.

1.5.2

• Four global name-day shortcodes that return just the names, with no markup.
• The shortcodes use the same calendar and the same tokens as the banners, and respect test mode.

1.5.1

• Banner polish: a lighter name-day footer, smaller desktop arrows that appear on hover and focus, and mobile content moved higher.

1.5.0

• Test mode with a simulated date and an optional forced campaign, stored per administrator.
• Dynamic name-day tokens for tomorrow and the next two days.
• Per-campaign typography and image positioning, with inline validation in the editor.
• The admin stylesheet was split into ten modules with no visual change.

1.4.0

• Rebuilt admin foundation and dashboard on a documented design-token system.
• Self-hosted Geist variable font, no external font CDN.
