## Description

Seaglass Tools adds a small, fixed set of fields that the Seaglass theme can show–
no field builder, nothing to configure.
 Values are displayed with Block Bindings(
source `seaglass/field`), so there are no shortcodes. The theme keeps working without
the plugin: empty fields simply do not show.

Currently included:

 * Product category and tag: description below the product list (may use H2/H3 headings).
 * Product category: header image and an icon for category tiles and subcategory
   buttons – one of the theme’s icons or an emoji (shown in the theme colour by 
   Seaglass).
 * Products: digital details – author, narrator, format, length, language, file 
   size – and a free sample link, edited in the “Digital details” tab of the product
   data box. Seaglass shows them in the facts box under the price (an audio sample
   gets a player, other samples a button).
 * Products: FAQ – question/answer pairs edited in the same “Digital details” tab.
   Seaglass shows them as expandable boxes under the product description; the plugin
   then adds FAQPage structured data (JSON-LD) with exactly the questions shown 
   on the page. Turn the schema off with `add_filter( 'seaglass_tools_faq_schema','
   __return_false' );`. Another theme can show the FAQ itself (`seaglass_tools_get_faq(
   $product_id )`) and fire `do_action( 'seaglass_product_faq_rendered', $items,
   $product_id )` to get the schema.
 * Posts and pages: a lead under the title, edited in the “Seaglass” panel of the
   block editor.
 * Chat post format: paragraphs written as “Name: text” become chat bubbles.
 * Native audio and video players for the [audio] and [video] shortcodes (no MediaElement.
   js). Disable with `add_filter( 'seaglass_tools_native_media', '__return_false');`.

## Installation

 1. Install the plugin from Plugins > Add New (search for “Seaglass Tools”) and activate
    it.
 2. The fields appear on the product category edit screen, in the “Digital details”
    tab of the product data box and in the “Seaglass” panel of the block editor.
 3. Product fields need WooCommerce. The theme Seaglass shows the fields; with another
    theme you can read them with `seaglass_tools_get()`.

## FAQ

### Do I need the Seaglass theme?

The fields are made for Seaglass and the theme shows them automatically. With another
block theme you can still show them with Block Bindings (source `seaglass/field`).

### What happens when I deactivate the plugin?

The saved values stay in the database. Seaglass hides the places that use them, 
nothing breaks.
