Changelog #### 2.6.16 * Removed the unexpected root `BUILDING.md` file from the production plugin package. * Normalized the main plugin file so the distributed `pointly-booking.php` uses a single line-ending style. #### 2.6.15 * Repackaged the latest WordPress.org submission build with the cleaned root plugin file, included source directories, and build documentation. #### 2.6.14 * Included `src/`, `package.json`, and build instructions in the distributed plugin package so compiled assets have matching human-readable source. * Removed the legacy extra root `bookpoint-v5.php` file from the package and kept` pointly-booking.php` as the single plugin entry file. #### 2.6.13 * Merged the plugin bootstrap and runtime into a single root file named `pointly- booking.php`. * Removed the extra root `bookpoint-v5.php` entry file to keep the upload package aligned with standard WordPress plugin structure. #### 2.6.12 * Added a standard root plugin bootstrap file (`pointly-booking.php`) with the complete WordPress plugin header. * Converted `bookpoint-v5.php` into an internal core loader so upload scanners only detect one valid plugin entry file. #### 2.6.11 * Secured the public manage-booking slots REST route so `exclude_booking_id` now requires either booking-management capability or the matching booking manage key. * Updated the customer reschedule page to pass the booking manage key when requesting replacement time slots. #### 2.6.10 * Tightened REST API permissions across admin endpoints to keep customer, agent, schedule, holiday, and field-value access inside the correct capability scope. * Replaced blocked public plugin URLs with working WordPress.org URLs and prepared a clean free-only upload package without archived release copies. #### 2.6.9 * Fixed the booking wizard customer form so text fields keep focus while typing instead of forcing a click after each character. * Regenerated the frontend assets and packaged the updated free plugin release for upload. #### 2.6.8 * Updated the admin release package with the latest sidebar cleanup, icon assignments, and corrected account icon filename. * Regenerated the upload package for the current BookPoint free plugin release. #### 2.6.7 * Fixed the booking wizard layout so Back and Next stay in a dedicated footer instead of overlapping step content. * Improved the booking flow release package with rebuilt frontend, admin, and block assets for distribution. #### 2.6.6 * Refined the admin shell to match the new sidebar and topbar visual system more closely without changing the menu labels. * Improved sidebar proportions, grouped navigation rhythm, and responsive drawer behavior for a cleaner admin experience. #### 2.6.5 * Tightened REST API permission callbacks for promo codes, tools, and calendar booking access. * Updated the booking form block render callback to avoid returning raw shortcode output. #### 2.6.1 * Split the admin app into lazy-loaded screen chunks to improve initial load performance. * Centralized admin success and error toasts so save feedback is more consistent across screens. * Polished save feedback in key catalog, settings, and promo-code flows. #### 2.5.1 * Improved plugin title and description for better visibility in booking system, appointment booking, and booking calendar searches. * Enhanced readme content for clearer scheduling, online booking, and service booking discovery. * Expanded FAQ content to better describe existing booking, calendar, and payment features. #### 1.0.4 * Added a safe BookPoint Pro information screen and feature registry for a separate paid add-on. * Fixed corrupted encoded symbols in admin screens and the booking block. * Fixed save redirects that could trigger the browser unsaved-changes warning after a successful save. #### 1.0.3 * Maintenance release. #### 1.0.1 * Initial WordPress.org release. ##
