## Description

SaveElectro displays a live Nord Pool electricity spot-price widget on any WordPress
page, post, or sidebar.

The widget shows the current price, a 24-hour bar chart, today/tomorrow toggle, 
the cheapest 2-hour window, and min/avg/max statistics for your chosen country.

**Features**

 * Live spot prices, updated every 15 minutes (hourly in Norway & Denmark, pending
   their data providers)
 * 7 countries: Finland, Sweden, Norway, Denmark, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania
 * 24-hour colour-coded bar chart with current-hour marker
 * Today / Tomorrow toggle
 * Cheapest 2-hour window highlight
 * Min / Avg / Max / Unit statistics
 * Dark and light themes
 * Shortcode, Gutenberg block, and Classic sidebar widget
 * Alignment options: left, center, right, float-left, float-right
 * Margin top and bottom controls
 * Works behind Cloudflare, WP Rocket, LiteSpeed and other page caches
 * No account or API key required
 * Optional “Electricity prices by SaveElectro” credit link (off by default)
 * Translation-ready via WordPress.org’s own translation system (translate.wordpress.
   org)

**Usage**

Add the shortcode to any page or post:

    ```
    [saveelectro]
    ```

With options:

    ```
    [saveelectro country="SE" theme="light" align="center"]
    ```

### External services

This plugin displays an electricity-price widget that is loaded from SaveElectro.
com, an external service operated by SaveElectro.

**What the service is and what it is used for**

The widget itself (the price chart and figures) is served from `https://www.saveelectro.
com/widget/embed.html` and embedded on your page in an iframe. The widget reads 
live Nord Pool electricity prices from the SaveElectro API at `https://www.saveelectro.
com/wp-json/saveelectro/v1/summary`.

**What data is sent and when**

When a visitor views a page containing the widget, their browser loads the widget
from saveelectro.com. As with any embedded web content, the visitor’s browser makes
a request to saveelectro.com, which means their IP address and standard browser 
request headers are visible to that server for the purpose of delivering the widget.
The plugin does not collect, store, or transmit any personal data itself, and no
account or login is required.

The widget records anonymous, aggregated usage events (for example: that a widget
was viewed, that a country was switched, or that the SaveElectro link was clicked)
so we can understand how the widget is used. These events contain no personal data,
set no cookies, and store no IP addresses. The country of the viewer is recorded
only at a coarse country level derived from network information, never an IP address.

The selected country and theme are passed in the widget URL (for example `?country
=FI&theme=dark`) so the correct prices are shown. No personal information is included.

**Service provider**

 * Website: https://www.saveelectro.com
 * Terms of Service: https://www.saveelectro.com/terms
 * Privacy Policy: https://www.saveelectro.com/privacy

### Translations

SaveElectro is fully translation-ready (all admin and front-end text uses standard
WordPress i18n functions with the text domain `saveelectro`).

By default the plugin follows your site’s own language (Settings -> General -> Site
Language in wp-admin), the same as every other WordPress plugin. If you need the
plugin’s own settings page in a specific language regardless of the site’s language,
use the **Plugin Language** dropdown at the top of the SaveElectro settings page.

Note: the plugin’s translated text covers its own admin settings page and the small
widget wrapper (title attribute, optional credit link). It does not yet cover the
price widget’s own content — the live numbers, chart and labels inside the box —
which is served from saveelectro.com and is still English-only for all languages.

Available languages:

 * English (default)

Finnish and other languages (Estonian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Latvian, Lithuanian)
are planned. Translations are handled entirely through the plugin’s own project 
on translate.wordpress.org once published — WordPress automatically downloads and
applies any language with an available translation there, with no action needed 
from site owners. Community translators are welcome to contribute directly on that
platform.

## Changelog

#### 2.1.9

 * Renamed internal prefix from “sew_” to “saveel_” throughout (functions, constants,
   CSS classes, script/style handles)
 * Removed the Domain Path header (pointed to a languages folder that no longer 
   exists now that bundled translation files have been removed — flagged by Plugin
   Check)
 * Removed bundled Finnish translation files — WordPress.org manages translations
   automatically via translate.wordpress.org once the plugin is approved
 * Admin settings page no longer auto-loads an iframe for the live preview — replaced
   with a plain link that opens the preview on saveelectro.com in a new tab
 * Front-end CSS/JS now properly registered and enqueued via wp_enqueue_style()/
   wp_enqueue_script() with wp_add_inline_style()/wp_add_inline_script(), instead
   of being echoed directly as inline / tags

#### 2.1.8

 * Fixed Plugin URI and Author URI being identical (WordPress.org submission requirement)—
   Author URI now points to the developer’s WordPress.org profile

#### 2.1.7

 * Removed the manual load_plugin_textdomain() call (discouraged since WP 4.6) —
   translations now load automatically via the Text Domain / Domain Path headers,

   language for the plugin’s own admin text)

   translation functions
