## Description

UltimaTour Connect helps an operator prepare and submit onboarding information to
UltimaTour Reviews from inside WordPress.

It can be used to:

 * enter business, contact, location, backlink, and tour details
 * verify the participation email
 * prepare logo and tour images before submission
 * submit the operator participation record to UltimaTour Reviews
 * sync participation status back from Reviews
 * surface the secure guest review link and QR code directly in the top dashboard
   cards after approval

It is intentionally narrow in scope. It is not a booking engine, calendar, OTA manager,
inventory tool, or public review dashboard.

### What the plugin does not do

 * It does not create backlinks automatically.
 * It does not insert hidden public links or credits.
 * It does not publish public reviews automatically.
 * It does not use an external QR image service.
 * It does not load remote executable admin JavaScript or CSS.
 * It does not track visitors silently.

### External Services

UltimaTour Connect connects to external services only when an administrator intentionally
uses the onboarding, verification, mapping, or participation workflows inside wp-
admin.

This plugin does not automatically send data to UltimaTour merely upon activation.

## FAQ

### What does Connect do?

It gathers operator-entered onboarding information, prepares image metadata, verifies
the participation email, and sends the participation record to UltimaTour Reviews.

### Does this replace UltimaTour Operator?

No. Connect is only the onboarding bridge for UltimaTour Reviews.

### Does this plugin create backlinks automatically?

No. Backlinks stay manual and operator-chosen. The operator selects a shortcode 
and places it manually.

### Does this plugin publish reviews automatically?

No. Public review moderation and publication remain on the Reviews side.

### Does this plugin use an external QR image service?

No. QR output is generated locally inside the plugin flow.

### What data is stored locally?

The plugin stores plugin settings, onboarding draft data, verified-email state, 
cached bootstrap or taxonomy data, and the remote participation state returned by
Reviews.

## Changelog

#### 0.1.83

 * Fixed the public `/revc` shortcut so it no longer depends on the admin-only `
   wp_tempnam()` helper during a front-end request when preparing the QR attachment
   email.
 * Rebuilt the shortcut email hotfix package without changing the operator-facing`/
   revc` behavior or admin controls.

#### 0.1.82

 * Added an optional `/revc` operator shortcut that can quietly email the current
   secure guest review link and QR code to the verified operator address without
   exposing that link publicly.
 * Added admin controls, rate-limited request logging, copyable shortcut diagnostics,
   and a manual `Send review link email now` action inside Connect.

#### 0.1.80

 * Fixed WordPress.org review findings related to contributor metadata and escaped
   admin markup output.
 * Clarified external-service disclosure so Connect states plainly that remote requests
   are tied to administrator-initiated workflows, not silent activation behavior.

#### 0.1.79

 * Renamed the bundled third-party license summary from markdown to plain text for
   cleaner WordPress.org Plugin Check results.
 * Kept the same license disclosures and bundled vendor license files.

#### 0.1.78

 * Improved packaging and listing readiness for WordPress.org submission.
 * Clarified external-service, privacy, and license disclosures.
 * Cleaned the final release ZIP and submission documentation.

#### 0.1.77

 * Improved onboarding stability and WordPress.org compatibility.
 * Improved validation, escaping, and localization readiness.
 * Clarified external-service and privacy disclosures.
