## Description

**SurfCoins** adds digital wallets and loyalty balances to WordPress users.

The Community edition provides manual wallet administration. Authorized administrators
can create wallets, credit or debit individual users, review balances, and inspect
transaction history.

#### Main Features

 * Digital wallets for registered WordPress users.
 * Manual credit and debit operations.
 * Financial Center with user search and balance management.
 * Individual transaction history.
 * Public wallet identifier and QR code.
 * Administrative dashboard and system diagnostics.
 * Shortcodes for wallet, balance, history, and QR code.
 * Compatibility layer for existing SurfCoins installations.

#### Transaction History

Wallet movements are recorded so administrators and users can review the transaction
type, amount, description, and date.

#### Wallet QR Code

Each wallet can display a public identifier and QR code. The QR image is generated
through the external QRServer service. See the Privacy section for details.

#### Shortcodes

 * `[surfcoins_carteira]` — displays the complete wallet for the logged-in user.
 * `[surfcoins_saldo]` — displays the current wallet balance.
 * `[surfcoins_meu_qrcode]` — displays the wallet QR code and public identifier.
 * `[surfcoins_historico]` — displays the transaction history.
 * `[surfcoins_acoes_rapidas]` — displays wallet quick actions.
 * `[surfcoins_carteira_publica]` — displays public wallet identification.
 * `[surfcoins_users]` — displays the searchable member directory with online/offline
   status.

### Privacy

SurfCoins stores wallet, balance, and transaction information in the WordPress database
to provide its features.

When a wallet QR code is displayed, the visitor’s browser requests the QR image 
from the external QR Code API at `api.qrserver.com`. The request contains the public
wallet URL encoded into the QR code plus image-generation parameters such as size,
format, and margin. SurfCoins does not intentionally include the wallet balance,
password, or email address in that request.

The provider may receive technical request information as described in its privacy
statement. SurfCoins adds suggested privacy-policy text to the WordPress Privacy
settings screen so site owners can disclose this integration where required.

### External Services

#### QR Code API (goQR.me / Foundata GmbH)

SurfCoins uses the QR Code API hosted at `api.qrserver.com` to generate the PNG 
image for a user’s public wallet QR code. This external request occurs when a SurfCoins
wallet QR image is displayed in the browser.

The request sends the public SurfCoins wallet URL that must be encoded into the 
QR image, together with image parameters such as the requested dimensions, PNG format,
and margin. The provider may also receive normal technical request information from
the browser or HTTP client. No wallet password, email address, or wallet balance
is intentionally sent by SurfCoins to this service.

Service provider: goQR.me / Foundata GmbH.

 * Terms of Service: https://goqr.me/legal/tos-api.html
 * Privacy Policy for the QR Code API: https://goqr.me/de/rechtliches/datenschutz-
   api.html
 * API documentation: https://goqr.me/api/

### Source Code

The JavaScript shipped with SurfCoins is the human-readable source used by the plugin.
The plugin does not require npm, webpack, a minifier, or another build step to regenerate
the distributed JavaScript files. No compiled or minified JavaScript artifact is
required for normal operation.

## Changelog

#### 2.1.23

 * Adds a Community Transferir quick action that opens a SurfCoins Business information
   modal when no transfer add-on is active.
 * Automatically omits the Community Transferir fallback when SurfCoins Transfer
   is active, preventing duplicate actions.
 * Keeps transfer execution outside Community while preserving the standalone add-
   on architecture.

#### 2.1.22

 * Redesigns the welcome-bonus settings screen with a responsive card, accessible
   toggle, and clearer value controls.
 * Aligns dashboard, financial-center, and settings actions with the standalone 
   SurfCoins visual system.
 * Keeps all administrative styling inside Community with no dependency on SurfCoins
   UI 2.0 or PRO.

#### 2.1.21

 * Adds a complete standalone Community visual layer that does not depend on SurfCoins
   UI 2.0.
 * Protects wallet buttons, cards, lists, and modals from conflicting global theme
   styles.
 * Improves responsive presentation, visible keyboard focus, reduced-motion support,
   and the Business add-on information card.

#### 2.1.20

 * Makes the distributed wallet JavaScript directly human-readable with no build
   step required.
 * Fixes balance validation for invalid users and removes an undefined variable 
   notice.

   separate extensions remain responsible for their own transfer implementation.
 * Documents the external QR Code API with its Terms of Service, Privacy Policy,
   and API documentation.

   for existing integrations.

   or financial logic in Community.

   independently functional.

#### 2.1.14

   of migration tools.

#### 2.1.13

 * Automatically creates or reuses the published “Minha Carteira” page with the `[
   surfcoins_carteira]` shortcode on activation.
 * Prevents duplicate wallet pages by reusing the stored page, canonical slug, or
   an existing page containing the wallet shortcode.
 * Stores the wallet page ID for reliable future integrations while preserving backwards
   compatibility.

#### 2.1.12

 * Reworked member online/offline filtering to use WordPress APIs only.
 * Removed direct database queries and exclusionary user-query parameters from the
   members directory.
 * Preserved the 5-minute online window and legacy activity user meta.

#### 2.1.11

 * Replaces member-status `meta_query` filters with a dedicated indexed activity
   table.
 * Preserves the existing five-minute online window, member search, status filters,
   and pagination.

   with existing integrations.

   directory.
