## Description

A QR code generator that lives in wp-admin under **QR Codes**.

 * Encodes a URL, plain text, an email address, a phone number, an SMS, or Wi-Fi
   credentials.
 * Full styling: dot and corner shapes, colours, gradients, background colour and
   rounding, quiet zone, size, error-correction level, and a centre logo picked 
   from the Media Library.
 * Downloads as PNG or SVG, or saves to the Media Library — with the style config
   stored on the attachment, so any saved code can be loaded straight back into 
   the form and tweaked.
 * **Style presets.** Three neutral presets ship with the plugin; anything else 
   you build can be saved as a named preset and reused on later codes. Presets store
   the style fields (including the centre logo), not the content.

Rendering happens entirely in the browser — no PHP QR library, no third-party API,
nothing about your codes leaves the site.

### Capabilities

 * Building, downloading and saving codes needs `upload_files` (Author and up), 
   the same capability WordPress uses for any other upload.
 * Creating and deleting presets needs `edit_theme_options` (Administrator), because
   presets are shared site-wide. Change that with the `rsc_qr_preset_capability`
   filter:
 * add_filter(‘rsc_qr_preset_capability’, fn () => ‘upload_files’);
 * 
   ### Bundled library
   
 * QR rendering is done in the browser by **qr-code-styling** 1.9.2 by Denys Kozak,
   MIT licensed, bundled at `assets/vendor/qr-code-styling.js` as the project’s 
   own prebuilt UMD file.
 * Source and build instructions: https://github.com/kozakdenys/qr-code-styling
 * The exact release bundled here: https://github.com/kozakdenys/qr-code-styling/
   releases/tag/v1.9.2
 * Its licence is included at `assets/vendor/qr-code-styling-LICENSE.txt`.

No other build step is involved: the plugin’s own CSS and JavaScript are uncompiled
and readable as shipped.

### External services

This plugin does not connect to any external service. QR codes are generated in 
your browser, and saved codes are written to your own Media Library. The panel links
out to rscmedia.co.uk and optiq-seo.com, but nothing is sent to either.

## FAQ

### Does this allow SVG uploads on my site?

No. SVG uploads stay disabled site-wide. The mime type is allowed only for the single
write of a code this plugin generated, and only after the markup has been checked
for scripts, event handlers and other active content.

### What happens to my codes if I uninstall?

Saved codes stay in the Media Library; only the saved presets are removed.
