## Description

**Marivya Lesson Planner** helps private teachers keep track of their students, 
lessons and shared materials.
 It includes a minimal **Student Portal** that students
can open via a **magic link** (token) or **PIN**, so they can see upcoming lessons
and notes without creating an account.

**Highlights**
 – Custom post types for **Students**, **Lessons**, and **Materials**–
Calendar-friendly lesson data (date, time, duration, status) – Materials linked 
to a student or global – **Student Portal** access via magic link (token) or PIN–
Rate-limited PIN attempts and HMAC-signed session cookie – Admin AJAX for moving
lessons on a calendar – WordPress privacy integration: personal data **exporter**
and **eraser** – No telemetry. No external services required.

**Pro (optional add-on)**
 – Recurring lessons, advanced reminders, templates, richer
student portal, and more. – A gentle “Pro” upsell is shown only on plugin screens(
no global banners).

> This plugin is independent and not affiliated with any LMS vendor.

#### How it works

 1. Create a **Student** and start adding **Lessons** (date, time, duration, notes,
    homework).
 2. Optionally attach **Materials** to a student.
 3. Open a student and use the **Student Portal access** box to:
 4.  * Generate a **magic link** (time-limited token) and copy/send it,
     * Or set a **PIN** (hashed and never emailed).
 5. Students access the portal from the link or by PIN. A secure session cookie keeps
    them logged in for 30 days.

#### Privacy

 * Includes a **personal data exporter** and **eraser** (`Tools  Export/Erase Personal
   Data`).
 * Student portal session cookie: `marivya_lp_portal` (HTTP-only, SameSite=Lax, 
   Secure on HTTPS), expires in 30 days.
 * Magic links expire after a chosen number of days (default 7).
 * No personal data is sent to third parties.

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/marivya-lesson-planner/` directory
    or install via **Plugins  Add New**.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** screen in WordPress.
 3. A **Student Portal** page is created automatically (you can change the URL later).
 4. Go to **Students** and create your first student. Add lessons/materials as needed.

## FAQ

### How do I send a magic link to a student?

Open a **Student** in the admin and use the **Student Portal access** box to generate
and copy the link, or send it via email from the same screen.

### Can I use a PIN instead of a link?

Yes. Set a PIN in the same **Student Portal access** box. PIN attempts are rate-
limited and the PIN is stored as a hash.

### Where is the portal page URL set?

A portal page is created on activation. You can change the base URL used in student
access links in **Marivya Lesson Planner  Settings  Student Portal**.

### Does the plugin add a frontend login or user accounts?

No. Students access their portal via a time-limited token link or a PIN; no WP user
accounts are created.

### How do I export or erase personal data?

Use WordPress tools: **Tools  Export Personal Data** / **Tools  Erase Personal Data**.
The plugin registers its own exporter/eraser.

### Does uninstall remove all data?

By default, options and sensitive portal metadata are removed, while CPT content(
students/lessons/materials) is preserved.
 You can force full removal via: define(‘
MARIVYA_LP_DELETE_ALL_DATA_ON_UNINSTALL’, true ); or by hooking: add_filter( ‘marivya_lp_uninstall_remove_content’,‘
__return_true’ );
