## Description
Lektivo is for businesses that offer courses or classes — dance studios, yoga studios,
language schools, cooking classes, and similar.
It adds custom post types for courses, instructors, locations, and schedules, plus
Gutenberg blocks for course lists, schedule viewing, and instructor grids. Professional
adds testimonials, location maps, archive filters, and an interactive timetable.
Lektivo handles **content and structure**. Booking and payment stay with your external
provider (dans.se, Bookeo, WooCommerce Bookings, and the like) through configurable
booking URLs.
#### Free vs Professional
**Lektivo Free** includes the course, instructor, location, and schedule post types,
taxonomies, meta fields, core admin, the basic Course List and Instructor Grid blocks,
and a day/time-ordered Schedule Viewer class list. Course, instructor, location,
and schedule creation is unlimited.
**Lektivo Professional** (a separate paid build distributed outside wordpress.org)
adds:
* Interactive timetable Schedule Viewer (location panels, weekday grid, mobile
day cards)
* Course and schedule archive filters (Professional only, including trials)
* Location Map block and map embeds
* Testimonials (CPT, admin meta, theme showcase support)
* Related-course and instructor-course showcase helpers for rich theme cards
* Freemius updates and priority support
Style sample packs and testimonial sample data (latin-heat and other Dance lab packs)
live in the companion Dance theme and are tracked as a Dance follow-up, not this
plugin ZIP.
#### Privacy note
Lektivo uses the Freemius SDK for licensing and optional opt-in analytics. Freemius
only connects after you choose to opt in or start an upgrade. The free plugin on
WordPress.org does not phone home without consent.
## Blocks
This plugin provides 3 blocks.
* Schedule Viewer Weekly class schedule for a semester, listed by day and time.
* Course List Displays a list of courses for the current term by default, with
optional filtering by category, difficulty, style, semester, or lifecycle (upcoming,
running, past).
* Instructor Grid Displays a grid of instructor cards with photo, name, role,
and specialties.
## Installation
1. From **Plugins Add New**, search for Lektivo and click Install, or upload the `
lektivo` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
2. Activate Lektivo through the Plugins screen.
3. Add courses, instructors, locations, and schedules from the Lektivo admin menus.
4. Place Lektivo blocks in the block editor, or use theme templates that support Lektivo.
## FAQ
### Does Lektivo handle booking or payments?
No. Each course or schedule entry has a booking URL that links to your external
booking provider.
### Are there free-plan creation limits?
No. The free plugin on WordPress.org lets you create as many courses, instructors,
locations, and schedules as you need.
### Where do I get Lektivo Professional?
Professional is a separate paid build (interactive timetable, archive filters, location
maps, testimonials, course showcases, and updates). Upgrade from the Freemius pricing
screen in wp-admin after activating the plugin, or visit the product page on jugasit.
com.
### Will upgrading keep my content?
Yes. Your courses, instructors, locations, and schedules stay in place. Professional(
including trials) unlocks the interactive Schedule Viewer, course and schedule archive
filters, location maps, testimonials, and rich course showcase helpers. On Free,
filter values in the address bar have no effect.
### Does the free plugin send data to Freemius without asking?
No. Connection and optional analytics are opt-in. You stay in control from the Freemius
screens in wp-admin.

## Changelog
#### 1.3.3
* CI: `package:wporg-free` fails when the free ZIP contains licence or plan checks(`
bin/check-free-gates.php`).
* Release: `release:wporg` always ships our own free build from `package:wporg-
free` and no longer downloads the Freemius-generated free ZIP; `bin/freemius-
download-free.php` is removed (#65).
* Schedule Viewer layout and filter controls now come from a Professional-only
editor script; the free editor shows only the semester picker.
* “Book now” and “View on Map” links that open a new tab include a translated screen-
reader cue “(opens in a new tab)” and a single visible cue (the legacy “Book
now ” arrow is dropped so the link is not “Book now ”) (#62).
* Course, instructor and location card titles (and Schedule Viewer location headings)
default to h2 so archives no longer skip from h1 to h3; Course List lifecycle
sections use h2 with nested card h3, and static booking status no longer uses
aria-live. Class-based CSS keeps the prior h3 card title size, weight and spacing
so theme h2 styles do not enlarge the cards (#64).
* Pricing tier, specialty and room fields in the admin meta boxes expose programmatic
labels on existing rows and on rows added with “Add Tier” / “Add Specialty” /“
Add Room” (#63).
* Course and schedule filters update results in place when JavaScript is available(
URL stays shareable; result count is announced to assistive tech), keep Apply
for no-JS only, group fields with a fieldset legend, keep a visible focus outline
on filter controls, and the course card Show more toggle exposes aria-expanded/
aria-controls with a 24×24 hit target (#59).
* Course, location and instructor cards: thumbnails are decorative (not nameless
duplicate links), each course card keeps a single permalink (title) with a visible
focus style, decorative info icons are hidden from assistive technology, and
the plugin ships its own `.screen-reader-text` styles (#61).
* Schedule Viewer timetable class cells expose weekday and time to assistive technology,
title links meet a 24×24 minimum hit target, sticky columns no longer cover focused
links, and a “Skip schedule” link bypasses long timetable regions (#60).
* WordPress.org free build no longer ships licence-gated code (Guideline 5): course
archive filtering, licence notices and the Course Filters / Location Map shortcodes
are Professional-only (#65).
#### 1.3.2
* Previous-release candidate-build upgrade CI job
(`test:upgrade-from-previous`):
installs the last GitLab Release plugin and Dance theme ZIPs with `sv_SE` and
seeded content, replaces both with the new builds in the same folders, asserts
an active plugin, clean debug.log, rendered home/courses/schedules, Freemius
SDK `languages/` in the production ZIP, and desktop plus 390px screenshots per
style variation. Dance theme ZIPs fall back to tests/fixtures/upgrade/ when cross-
project release downloads are unavailable (#55).
* Automated folder-name upgrade smoke test: install under `coursekit/`,
upload
the canonical `lektivo/` ZIP beside it, assert a single active plugin, preserved
course data and options, retirement notice option, and no PHP fatals (#55).
* Release Checklist and `docs/RELEASE.md` require “Upgrade test from
previous
release passed” before tagging (#55).
* Document the `coursekit/` `lektivo/` upgrade path in the release
checklist
and readme upgrade notice (#55).
* When a site still runs Lektivo from `wp-content/plugins/coursekit/`
(common
after Freemius in-place updates from the CourseKit product name) and a manual
zip upload installs `lektivo/` beside it, the canonical install deactivates the
leftover `coursekit/` copy and shows an admin notice so administrators can delete
the unused folder. Content and settings are shared WordPress data and stay intact(#
55).
#### 1.3.1
* Localize visitor-facing weekday names on `sv_SE` sites: long labels
(`Torsdag`),
short schedule abbreviations (`tor`), and plural session forms (`Torsdagar`).
Helpers prefer the lektivo text domain then WordPress `$wp_locale`; Schedule
Viewer fallbacks no longer hard-code English (#57).
* Ship Swedish `lektivo` translations (`languages/lektivo-sv_SE.po` /
.mo) inside
the plugin ZIP so `sv_SE` sites (for example ritmostudio.se) show visitor-facing
strings in Swedish without a wordpress.org language pack after the CourseKit
Lektivo rename. Packaging no longer excludes the plugin `languages/` tree; CI
verifies the ZIP contains the `.mo` and key visitor strings translate (#56, related
lektivo-dance#71).
* Production packaging keeps `vendor/freemius/wordpress-sdk/languages/` in
the
Freemius ZIP (`.distignore` no longer strips nested `languages` paths) and CI
fails if that folder is missing from the built ZIP (#53).
#### 1.3.0
* Shortcode wrappers for every Lektivo block so Classic Editor and HTML
widgets
can embed the same markup as Gutenberg: `[lektivo_course_list]`, [lektivo_instructor_grid],`[
lektivo_schedule_viewer]`, [lektivo_course_filters], and `[lektivo_location_map]`.
Professional gates match the blocks (filters stay empty without a licence; Schedule
Viewer keeps the free class list vs Pro timetable). Use layout=”compact” on the
schedule shortcode for the compact day-card list (#17).
* Course List **Term** control: defaults to the current bookable semester
(same`
Helpers::get_current_semester()` logic as Schedule Viewer), with options for
all terms or a fixed semester. Course cards show day and time from the schedule
in the displayed term. Blocks saved before this keep listing all terms until
changed (#38).
* Schedule Viewer block settings for **Layout** (Responsive vs Compact list)
and**
Show filters**, so a page can embed the week as day cards on every screen size
without the filter form. Existing embeds keep the responsive timetable and filters(#
41).
* Lektivo always uses the site language (Settings General) for its own
strings—
in wp-admin, the block editor, REST (including `_locale=user`), and on the front
end — even when the logged-in user’s profile language differs. Language-pack `.
mo` files under `wp-content/languages/plugins/` are rewritten onto the site locale
the same way as editor Jed JSON. A check ensures the Swedish PO has no empty
or fuzzy translations. Theme-owned copy such as schedule headings stays in Lektivo
Dance (#46).
* The Freemius Account page is no longer listed under Courses, so customers
do
not see the Jugas IT owner’s details and keys. Activation now returns you to
the Courses list, and the licence notices and Plugins row no longer link to the
Account page (#50).
* Course and schedule archive filters (`lektivocf_*` / `lektivosf_*` URL
params
and filter controls) require Lektivo Professional, including Freemius trials.
Free sites ignore filter values typed into the address by hand (#15).
* Course archive filter query params use the `lektivocf_*` prefix (aligned
with
schedule `lektivosf_*`). Bookmarked or shared links that still use ckf_* keep
working as aliases on Professional; new filter forms emit only lektivocf_* (#
40).
* Admin list table column keys for difficulty colour / sort order and
semester
booking-opens use the `lektivo_` prefix instead of `ck_` (#40). Sites with custom
CSS that targeted those admin column classes need the same rename (`ck_color``
lektivo_color`, `ck_sort_order` lektivo_sort_order, `ck_booking_opens` `lektivo_booking_opens`).
Front-end `lektivo-*` / `wp-block-lektivo-*` class names and –lektivo-diff-*
CSS custom properties are unchanged.
* JavaScript translation files named after a script handle
(`lektivo-{locale}-{
handle}.json`) are rewritten onto the site language the same way as the MD5 file-
path JSON names, so Swedish (or any site locale) loads for every Jed file style(#
52).
* Semester admin form field IDs use the `lektivo-semester-*` prefix instead of
the leftover `ck-semester-*` CourseKit IDs. Term meta keys are unchanged, so
existing semester data is unaffected (#40).
* Course archive cards use the same booking button markup and default booking
policy as the Course List block and `[lektivo_course_list]` shortcode, so a custom
course page and the archive show the same book / status state for the same courses
without extra configuration (#45).
* Schedule Viewer no longer forces the page wider than a phone screen:
filters
stack below 600 px, day labels sit above class times on narrow viewports, and
long course or instructor names wrap instead of truncating (#39).
* Tag pipelines on the canonical GitLab project fail again when Freemius
credentials
are missing, after the project path rename to jugasit/lektivo/lektivo (forks
still dry-run).
#### 1.2.1
* Updated Freemius SDK to the latest version.
#### 1.2.0
* WordPress.org free packaging and gated SVN deploy: local free ZIP
(`bin/package-
free-plugin.sh` / `package:wporg-free`), Freemius free download helper, `release:
wporg` (skips cleanly without WPORG_SVN_USERNAME / `WPORG_SVN_PASSWORD`), Plugin
Check job, and .wordpress-org/ asset checklist. Pro Schedule Viewer UI lives
in ScheduleViewerPremium.php so free ZIPs ship without locked Pro code.
* Idempotent CourseKit Lektivo legacy data migration
(`Lektivo\Migration\LegacyCourseKit`)
and deprecated Dance-theme compatibility layer (`coursekit/*` block aliases, `
coursekit_*` helpers, `ck_*` template hierarchy fallbacks).
* Swedish stopgap language-pack CI artifact (`dist/lektivo-sv_SE.zip`)
built from`
i18n/lektivo-sv_SE.po` for drop-in under wp-content/languages/plugins/ until
translate.wordpress.org ships translations. Not bundled in the plugin ZIP.
* Renamed the free plugin to **Lektivo** (slug `lektivo`, namespace
Lektivo\,
prefixes `lektivo_` / `_lektivo_` / `lektivo/`).
* Expand Professional surface for the first public free release: Course
Filters,
Location Map, schedule filter/grid helpers, FilterForm, Testimonials CPT/admin
meta, and related/instructor course showcase helpers (`src/Pro/CourseShowcase.
php`) ship only in `@fs_premium_only` paths stripped from the free ZIP. Free
keeps CPTs (except testimonials), taxonomies, meta, core admin, Course List,
Instructor Grid, and a plain day/time-ordered Schedule Viewer list with no upgrade
nag.
* Plugin Check (`lint:plugin-check`) runs with a 512M PHP/WP-CLI memory
limit
and fails the pipeline on PCP ERROR or WARNING rows.
* Release tooling moved to `tools/release/` (autoload-dev only; not
shipped in
the plugin ZIP).
* Free Schedule Viewer renders the full class-card list without an
upgrade nag;
the interactive grid remains premium-only code.
* Course pricing meta box: new tier rows use a monotonically increasing
data-next-
index so remove-then-add no longer reuses a POST index and silently drops a tier
on save.
* Activation with CourseKit inactive migrates and flushes rewrite rules in the
activation hook so front-end course URLs work without an admin page load. Coexistence
detection uses `CourseKit\Plugin` / is_plugin_active( ‘coursekit/coursekit.php’)(
not the compat coursekit_fs() stand-in). Coexistence early-return sets the rewrite
flush flag so re-activating then deactivating CourseKit still refreshes permalinks.
* `lektivo_render_course_grid()` (and other hard-coded block wrappers) route
class
lists through `lektivo_classes()` so Dance still sees wp-block-coursekit-* twins
until the theme MR lands.
* Free ZIP excludes all dotfiles via `.distignore` `.*` (fixes Plugin Check
ERROR
for shipped `.eslintignore`) and ships `composer.json` alongside vendor/. Plugin
Check CI fails on CSV rows matching line,column,(ERROR|WARNING), (`set -o pipefail`
+ gate self-test). Activation smoke installs the built `dist/lektivo.zip` instead
of a working-tree symlink.
* Legacy CourseKitLektivo migration: slash block markup for `wp_update_post()`,
keep multi-batch `block_markup` on the same step, never rename theme coursekit_dance_*
options, run migration on `admin_init` (not front-end plugins_loaded) with explicit
pending/running/done state, and flush rewrites after completion.
* Dance compatibility: keep block-theme `template-canvas.php` results, copy
style
handles onto `coursekit/*` alias blocks, and dual-emit `coursekit-*` CSS classes
via `lektivo_classes()` while Dance (or `coursekit` theme support) is active.
* Unique Composer `autoloader-suffix` so CourseKit and Lektivo can coexist
without
a fatal `ComposerAutoloaderInit` collision.
* Freemius menu/`first-path` points at the Courses CPT list so post-activation
redirects are accessible to admins.
* Packaging honours `.distignore` as the single ZIP exclude source; free ZIP
strips
premium-only regions and `@fs_premium_only` comments.
* Skip full-table legacy scans once `lektivo_db_version` is current (LIKE
scoped
to migrated content types). Tagged `package-plugin` builds fail when CHANGELOG
lacks `## X.Y.Z` instead of falling back to Unreleased.
* Front-end Lektivo strings follow the site language (Settings General),
not
the logged-in user’s profile language; wp-admin still uses the profile language.
* WordPress.org free package excludes hidden lint/test cache files; `readme.txt`
Tested up to is 7.1; `src/functions.php` guards against direct file access.
* Plugin Check PrefixAllGlobals warnings: template body variables are scoped
inside
static closures; block-theme footer HTML uses $lektivo_block_footer_html.
* Admin meta boxes enqueue CSS/JS instead of inline `
