Install and activate the plugin. 2. Go to the “EfeOEM Products” menu to start adding products. 3. For each product, enter the OEM codes, cross-reference codes, and compatible brands/ models. 4. Add the `[efeoem_search]` shortcode to any page to publish the smart search box. ### External Services EfeOEM includes the Freemius SDK to provide licensing, account/upgrade screens, paid-plan features, and optional usage diagnostics. Premium builds may also use Freemius for premium update delivery. When an administrator chooses to connect/opt in, the plugin may send site and environment information such as the site URL, WordPress/PHP/plugin versions, and administrator/ account information required by Freemius. The permissions requested are shown on the Freemius opt-in screen before consent. If the administrator skips the opt-in, optional usage tracking is not enabled. Paid-license, billing, account, and update operations may still communicate with Freemius when those features are used.

No. EfeOEM uses its own data structure and does not require any additional plugin. ### Is Rank Math required? No. If Rank Math is active, the integration is enabled automatically; if not, the plugin continues to work normally. ### Is EfeOEM translatable? Yes. English is the canonical source language. A complete Turkish translation is included, and the plugin ships with a POT template for additional languages. ### How do I add the search box? Add the `[efeoem_search]` shortcode to any page or post. ### Can I import products in bulk? Yes. Use the “Import” screen under the EfeOEM Products menu to upload a CSV file with your product codes. ## Reviews There are no reviews for this plugin. ## Contributors & Developers “EfeOEM” is open source software.

Changelog #### 1.4.7 * Fixed the EfeOEM brand icon shown on Settings and Import screens. * Added a cache-safe brand icon asset filename while keeping the legacy icon synchronized. * Corrected the internal EFEOEM_VERSION constant to match the plugin release. #### 1.4.6 * Fixed WordPress admin menu icon sizing. * Moved Freemius account and upgrade navigation into tabs to reduce sidebar clutter. * Improved Freemius redirects to open the EfeOEM settings page directly. #### 1.4.4 * Fixed Freemius admin menu routing for the EfeOEM custom post type settings page. * Prefixed result-card template variables to comply with WordPress coding standards. * Plugin Check cleanup and maintenance improvements. #### 1.4.1 * Added keyboard navigation for live search results (Arrow Up/Down and Enter). * Added visible result counts to live search. * Added separator-aware highlighting for matched OEM and part codes. * Improved accessibility with search/list ARIA attributes and keyboard-friendly result navigation. * Added Search Engine 2.0 with separator-insensitive OEM, stock, cross-reference, and previous-number matching. * Searches such as 81.50804.6075, 81-50804-6075, 81 50804 6075, and 81508046075 can now resolve to the same stored code without rewriting existing product data. * Added relevance scoring so exact stock-code and OEM matches are placed before partial code and product-title matches in live search. * Added a configurable “Matched by” row to live preview cards showing the matched code type and original stored code. * Added a reusable code normalizer for future import, API, and lookup-index features. #### 1.3.2 * Switched all plugin source UI strings to English as the canonical source language. * Added a complete Turkish translation and a POT template for future community/ local translations. * Added bundled translation loading from the standard /languages directory while preserving WordPress language-pack precedence. * Standardized live-preview defaults, labels, and new-install URL slug defaults for international installations. #### 1.3.1 * Added optional manual Price and Stock Status fields for standalone EfeOEM products so enabled preview fields have a native data source. * Preview list headings are now shown only when products are found. * Corrected and expanded the readme documentation for the Live Search & Product Preview feature. #### 1.3.0 * Added Live Search & Product Preview cards with compact product thumbnails and configurable result fields. * Added per-field visibility controls for product image, product name, OEM code, stock code, brand, compatibility, price, stock status, and the product link button. * Added customizable preview heading, field labels, button text, empty-field hiding, and minimum search character settings. * Added responsive preview-card styling and helper functions for compatibility, price, and stock summaries. #### 1.2.4 * Replaced the dynamically interpolated SQL placeholder list in OEM code search with explicit prepared placeholders for all fixed EfeOEM meta keys, resolving WordPress.DB.PreparedSQL.InterpolatedNotPrepared. #### 1.2.3 * Updated the WordPress.org contributor username to match the plugin owner account. * Maintenance release for WordPress.org ownership verification and review readiness. #### 1.2.2 * Hardened CSV uploads by routing files through WordPress’s standard upload handler, validating file errors, extension, and size, and removing temporary imported files after reading. * Added an explicit CSV upload size limit with a filter for developers. * Updated CSV parsing for PHP 8.4 by explicitly setting the escape argument in str_getcsv(). * Reworked code-search SQL extension to use a prepared EXISTS clause instead of building an ID list into the search SQL. * Fixed Elementor/page-builder shortcode asset loading by registering/localizing assets when the shortcode actually renders. * Isolated AJAX/debounce state per search box so multiple EfeOEM search widgets can coexist on the same page. * Rewrite rules now flush only when URL slugs change instead of on every settings save. * Added the required External Services disclosure for the bundled Freemius SDK. #### 1.2.1 * Documentation fix: the efeoem_is_pro() helper now uses can_use_premium_code__premium_only()( checks license validity, not just build type) and is annotated to clarify it must not be relied on for the actual code-stripping mechanism used when Freemius generates the WordPress.org free build. #### 1.2.0 * Restructured the main plugin file per Freemius’s official recommendation: all plugin logic now runs inside an else-branch guarded by function_exists(‘efeoem_fs’), preventing fatal errors if both the free and premium versions are ever active on the same site simultaneously. #### 1.1.9 * Freemius SDK fully integrated with real product credentials (Plugin ID and Public Key). This is the “master” (premium) source build used for Freemius Deployment— the WordPress.org-hosted free version is generated separately by Freemius, not built manually. #### 1.1.8 * Reduced $_POST access in the repeatable field save routine to a single point ( was three separate token occurrences on one line, which a single phpcs:ignore comment did not fully cover). #### 1.1.7 * Fixed a phpcs:ignore comment placement issue — the suppression comment only covered the first line of a multi-line statement, so the $_POST access on the following line still triggered a nonce-verification warning. Collapsed to a single line to fully resolve it. #### 1.1.6 * Fixed the last remaining Plugin Check warning: sanitization now happens directly at the point of accessing $_POST in the repeatable field save routine. #### 1.1.5 * WordPress.org submission compliance fixes: replaced direct file system calls ( fopen/fread/fclose) with the WP_Filesystem API in the CSV importer. * Removed the discouraged load_plugin_textdomain() call (translations are loaded automatically for WordPress.org-hosted plugins). * Escaped thumbnail output in the result card template and prefixed its local variables. * Fixed nonce/unslash handling in the meta box save routine. * Rewrote readme.txt in English per WordPress.org guidelines. * Removed the .distignore file from the distributed package (hidden files are not permitted). #### 1.1.4 * Updated Plugin URI to the live efendimedya.com domain instead of the not-yet- published magaza.efendimedya.com subdomain. #### 1.1.3 * Prepared for WordPress.org submission: simplified the Plugin Name for a clean slug, updated “Tested up to”, added a .distignore file. #### 1.1.2 * The brand icon now actually appears in the admin menu and on the Settings/Import page headers. #### 1.1.1 * CSV import now auto-detects the delimiter (comma or semicolon) from the file itself — a fix for Excel’s inconsistent CSV behaviour depending on regional settings. * UTF-8 BOM in CSV files is now stripped correctly (prevents the first column header from being corrupted). #### 1.1.0 * Added a bulk CSV import tool (Products Import). * Added brand-based filtering to the search box (dropdown, includes child models). * Added a Settings page (Products Settings): results per page, URL slugs, native search integration toggle. * Added a Freemius integration skeleton (inactive until SDK files are added). #### 1.0.5 * Removed the temporary debug mode. * Clearer result card display for products without a title. #### 1.0.4 * Added a temporary debug mode. * Critical fix: the is_admin() check treated admin-ajax.php requests as admin requests, so code matching never ran for front-end AJAX searches. Added a wp_doing_ajax() check. #### 1.0.2 * Added the brand icon (WordPress.org listing assets). #### 1.0.1 * Moved the search engine to a more robust mechanism (native meta_query); code matching in AJAX search now works reliably. #### 1.0.0 * Initial release. ## Meta * Version **1.4.8** * Last updated **1 day ago** * Active installations **Fewer than 10** * WordPress version ** 5.8 or higher ** * Tested up to **7.0.4** * PHP version ** 7.4 or higher ** * Tags * [catalog](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/catalog/)[search](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/search/) [spare parts](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/spare-parts/) * [Advanced View](https://wordpress.org/plugins/efeoem/advanced/) ## Ratings No reviews have been submitted yet.
