## Description

**Trustbadg** is the ultimate WordPress trust badge and payment icon plugin designed
specifically for the modern Gutenberg block editor. Whether you run a WooCommerce
store, sell digital downloads with Easy Digital Downloads, or operate a membership
site, Trustbadg helps you display professional trust seals, payment method icons,
and secure checkout badges exactly where shoppers need reassurance most.

Stop wrestling with clunky HTML snippets, rigid theme widgets, or expensive third-
party SaaS badge platforms that lock your checkout styling behind recurring monthly
subscriptions. With Trustbadg, every badge set lives securely on your own WordPress
site as a native custom post type, giving you absolute control over your store branding,
icon selection, design styling, and automatic placement rules.

**Built for Conversions, Designed for Speed:** Trustbadg features a professionally
structured badge set editor with live preview, semantic server-rendered HTML, and
inline SVG icons. Unlike image-heavy badge widgets that slow checkout pages or break
on mobile, Trustbadg outputs clean, cache-friendly markup with zero frontend JavaScript.
So payment icons and security seals load instantly and look polished across desktop,
tablet, and mobile devices.

#### Why Choose a WordPress-Based Trust Badge Solution?

 * **Own Your Store Branding:** Keep every badge set, icon mix, design preset, and
   placement rule in your WordPress database. No third-party data collection, proprietary
   editor lock-in, or sudden subscription price hikes.
 * **Instant Block & Shortcode Placement:** Insert the Trustbadg block anywhere 
   in Gutenberg or copy a generated shortcode into pages, posts, widgets, or theme
   templates with live editor preview before you publish.
 * **Native Gutenberg Experience:** Build badge sets using a familiar tabbed editor
   inside WordPress. No complex external page builders or custom code snippets required.
 * **Automatic E-Commerce Placements:** Show badges on product pages, cart, checkout,
   shop archives, and supported plugin contexts without manually editing theme files.
 * **Seamless Theme Integration:** Server-rendered HTML and conditional CSS loading
   keep badge output lightweight and compatible with full-page caching plugins and
   WooCommerce HPOS.

#### How It Works

 1. **Create a Badge Set:** Open **Trustbadg  Badge Sets** and add a new badge set 
    with a name and optional heading or supporting text.
 2. **Choose Icons & Design:** Pick from bundled GPL icon presets or build a Custom
    Mix, then customize themes, layout styles, colors, spacing, and animations on the
    Design tab.
 3. **Configure Placement:** Use the block or shortcode anywhere, or enable automatic
    placements for site content and supported e-commerce plugins on the Placement tab.
 4. **Publish & Convert:** Hit publish to render trust badges on your storefront with
    inline SVG icons, no frontend JavaScript, and CSS that loads only where badges 
    appear.

#### Designed for Every E-Commerce Workflow

 * **For WooCommerce Stores:** Display payment icons and secure checkout seals on
   product pages, cart, checkout, and category archives with optional per-product
   badge set overrides.
 * **For Digital Download Sellers:** Place trust badges on Easy Digital Downloads
   product and checkout pages to reassure buyers before purchase.
 * **For Modern Checkout Plugins:** Support SureCart and FluentCart placements, 
   including instant buy URLs, without custom theme development.
 * **For Membership & Donation Sites:** Automatic placements for MemberPress, Restrict
   Content Pro, Paid Memberships Pro, and GiveWP when each plugin is active.
 * **For Agencies & Developers:** Spin up reusable badge sets for client stores 
   using standard WordPress hooks, filters, and a REST-powered editor with no SaaS
   dashboard required.

#### Comprehensive Badge Set Builder

Build every part of your checkout trust experience with dedicated, flexible editor
tabs:

 * **Content > Icon Mix:** Start from **3** bundled icon mix presets or switch to
   Custom Mix; search **501** GPL-compatible SVG icons across represented categories;
   drag to reorder and remove icons with tooltips.
 * **Content > Messaging:** Add an optional heading and supporting text to reinforce
   secure checkout, accepted payment methods, or satisfaction guarantees.
 * **Design > Themes & Colors:** Choose from **5** design themes plus Custom Color;
   customize background, accent, corner radius, padding, and margin; reset per-theme
   defaults with one click.
 * **Design > Layout & Motion:** Pick from **3** layout styles and **3** animation
   presets; control desktop and mobile icon sizes, icon alignment, and heading/text
   typography.
 * **Design > Live Preview:** Preview badge sets in the editor with desktop and 
   mobile device views before publishing.
 * **Placement > Automatic Rules:** Enable grouped automatic placements for site
   content and active e-commerce plugins; filter by WooCommerce product categories
   and tags, specific pages, or custom URL paths.
 * **Settings > Import & Privacy:** Export and import badge set data; optionally
   retain all data when the plugin is uninstalled.

#### Why Store Owners Choose Trustbadg

 * **Never Paste Raw HTML Again:** Replace fragile theme snippets with reusable 
   badge sets you can update once and display everywhere via block, shortcode, or
   automatic placement.
 * **Target Multiple Storefront Contexts:** Maintain distinct badge sets for checkout,
   product pages, cart, and landing pages each with its own icons, design, and placement
   rules.
 * **Ship Faster From Your Dashboard:** Publish badge sets with live preview, REST
   save, and copy-paste shortcodes & no tab-switching between SaaS dashboards and
   WordPress.
 * **Zero Frontend Bloat:** Render badges as server-side HTML with pure CSS. Bundled
   icons use inline SVG markup; public CSS loads only where badges are expected 
   to appear.
 * **Preview Exact Layouts Before Publishing:** Eliminate guesswork with real-time
   editor preview, theme swatches, and mobile layout simulation on the Design tab.
 * **Own Your Badge Data Forever:** Keep 100% control of badge sets and settings
   on your own domain with no monthly SaaS fees, no platform export drama, and total
   data privacy.

 * **Show the right payment icons to the right visitor:** Geo-targeted payment badges

   international shoppers see familiar methods at cart and checkout with no third-
   party geo API.
 * **One badge set, many contexts:** Use the Targeting & Rules tab to append icons
   when cart or product context matches WooCommerce categories, tags, or SKUs; EDD

#### More Notable Products From the Author

Trustbadg is developed by [Asphalt Themes](https://asphaltthemes.com/). If you build
careers or personal brands on WordPress, these free products from the same author
may help:

 * **[Rezicraft – Professional Resume & CV Builder](https://wordpress.org/plugins/rezicraft-professional-resume-cv-builder/)**–
   Create polished online resumes and CVs with Gutenberg-friendly layouts, sections
   for experience and skills, and templates aimed at job seekers and freelancers.
 * **[Resumee](https://wordpress.org/themes/resumee/)** – A free WordPress resume
   and portfolio theme with SEO-friendly markup, flexible sections for education
   and achievements, and a clean one-column layout for professional online profiles.

#### Why Trustbadg vs. Third-Party Badge Widgets

While third-party trust badge SaaS platforms and hosted widgets have popularized
checkout reassurance, they often come with hidden costs, restrictive lock-ins, and
performance compromises. Trustbadg reimagines store trust signals by shifting control
back to the site owner through a native WordPress solution.

 * **Complete Data Ownership & Privacy**
    Traditional badge platforms store your
   icon selections, placement rules, and styling on third-party cloud servers. With
   Trustbadg, your badge sets stay entirely on your own self-hosted WordPress installation
   with no external API calls, analytics, or visitor tracking in the free or Pro
   builds.
 * **Zero Subscription Fatigue**
    Most SaaS badge tools lock custom uploads, geo-
   targeting, or advanced placement behind recurring monthly or annual paywalls.
   Built directly for the WordPress ecosystem, Trustbadg gives you a capable free
   tier and an optional Pro upgrade without forcing every store into a SaaS dashboard.
 * **Native Gutenberg Integration**
    Avoid the friction of siloed, proprietary web
   apps and sluggish third-party page builders. Trustbadg integrates seamlessly 
   into the native WordPress block editor and admin, offering a fast, lightweight,
   and distraction-free badge building workflow.
 * **True Custom Branding & Domain Authority**
    Hosted badge widgets typically force
   you to embed third-party scripts or iframes on your checkout. Trustbadg renders
   badges as inline HTML on your own domain, maximizing brand consistency, search-
   friendly markup, and compatibility with caching plugins.
 * **Performance-First Architecture**
    Engineered with inline SVG icons, conditional
   CSS loading, and no frontend JavaScript, Trustbadg keeps checkout pages fast 
   while delivering polished trust badge presentation across all devices. WooCommerce
   High-Performance Order Storage (HPOS) compatibility is declared out of the box.

#### Privacy

Trustbadg does not send site or user data to external servers. No analytics or tracking
is included in the free or Pro builds. Geo-targeting in Pro uses server-side headers(
such as Cloudflare `CF-IPCountry` or WooCommerce geolocation) only with no external
geo API calls.

#### Performance

Trustbadg is built for store speed:

 * **No frontend JavaScript** : badges render as server-side HTML with pure CSS.
   Bundled icons use inline SVG markup; custom uploads use standard image tags.
 * **Conditional assets** : public CSS loads only on pages where a badge set block,
   shortcode, or active automatic placement is expected to render. Developers can
   override with the `trustbadg_enqueue_public_assets` filter.
 * **Cache-friendly** : static HTML output with no cookies, sessions, or frontend
   AJAX. Fully compatible with full-page caching (WP Rocket, LiteSpeed Cache, and
   similar plugins).
 * **WooCommerce HPOS** : compatible with WooCommerce High-Performance Order Storage(
   custom order tables).
 * **E-commerce integrations** — WooCommerce, EDD, SureCart, FluentCart, MemberPress,
   RCP, PMPro, and GiveWP placements use standard action hooks only (no direct order
   table access).
