normal editing and rendering are unchanged when it is unavailable. #### 1.1.12 * Removed the Author URI from the plugin header because the URL was rejected by the WordPress.org review crawler. * Sanitized final HTML returned by both shortcode callbacks and the dynamic Gutenberg block callback with `wp_kses_post()`. * Sanitized the shared rendered-section output, including featured-image-only output, before returning it to frontend callbacks. * Removed the previous output-escaping exception because rendered frontend HTML is now explicitly sanitized. #### 1.1.11 * Fixed the actual custom post type submenu label used by WordPress under the shared WD Online menu, so it now displays `WDOnline Content Sections`. * Kept the Content Sections screen terminology unchanged where the shorter content- type label is more natural. #### 1.1.10 * Updated the WD Online admin submenu label to use the full plugin name, `WDOnline Content Sections`. * Updated the WD Online landing-page shortcut to use the full plugin name. #### 1.1.9 * Renamed the plugin and directory baseline to `WDOnline Content Sections` / `wdonline- content-sections` for a more distinctive WordPress.org identity. * Updated the text domain and diagnostics provider ID to `wdonline-content-sections`. * Moved remaining admin presentation rules from inline `style` attributes into an enqueued admin stylesheet. * Added the admin stylesheet to read-only diagnostics asset checks. * Kept the unique `wdonline_cs_` / `WDONLINE_CS_` global identifier convention and the current `wdonline_sd_register_provider()` diagnostics interface. * No legacy compatibility layer was retained because there are no official installations requiring it. #### 1.1.8 * Updated all plugin-owned global PHP identifiers, script handles, nonces, metadata keys, shortcodes, REST namespace, block namespace, and DOM identifiers to the unique `wdonline_cs_` / `WDONLINE_CS_` convention. * Updated optional WD Online Support Diagnostics integration to the current `wdonline_sd_register_provider()` interface and deferred provider registration until `init` to avoid early translation loading. * Removed legacy identifier and compatibility paths because there are no official installations requiring backward compatibility. * Kept diagnostics optional, read-only, privacy-safe, and fully independent from normal plugin operation. * Diagnostic support codes continue to use the reserved `WDO-CS-xxxx` format. #### 1.1.7 * Added optional, read-only compatibility with WD Online Support Diagnostics. * Added diagnostics for plugin version, Content Section post type registration, shortcodes, Gutenberg block registration, REST registration hook, and required plugin assets. * Diagnostics does not modify plugin state and WDOnline Content Sections remains fully functional without the diagnostics plugin. * Updated the WD Online support/donation link. #### 1.1.6 * Fixed the Content Sections list so the complete shortcode is visible instead of being clipped to `[wd_`. * Kept one-click shortcode copying in the list table. #### 1.1.5 * Fixed Plugin Check error by allowing filters on the legacy post type detection query. * Added an explicit PHPCS exception for the intentional WordPress core `the_content` hook. * Updated the WordPress `Tested up to` value to 7.1. #### 1.1.4 * Added a reliable Add Content Section button fallback for the WooCommerce Short description editor. * Added a Shortcode box to the Content Section edit screen with one-click copy. * Improved Plugin Check compatibility for date/time sanitization and the intentional WordPress core content filter. #### 1.1.3 * Added the Add Content Section button to the WooCommerce Short description editor. * Removed the discouraged manual `load_plugin_textdomain()` call. * Improved sanitization of start and end date/time values. * Kept WordPress core content filtering while documenting the intentional core hook usage for Plugin Check. * Added compatibility handling for common legacy Content Section post type and block names. #### 1.1.2 * Moved Content Sections under the shared WD Online menu in the WordPress admin area. #### 1.1.1 * Maintenance and compatibility improvements. ## Meta * Version **1.1.13** * Last updated **17 hours ago** * Active installations **Fewer than 10** * WordPress version ** 6.0 or higher ** * Tested up to **7.1** * PHP version ** 7.4 or higher ** * Tags * [block](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/block/)[content sections](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/content-sections/) [gutenberg](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/gutenberg/)[reusable content](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/reusable-content/) [shortcode](https://wordpress.org/plugins/tags/shortcode/) * [Advanced View](https://wordpress.org/plugins/wdonline-content-sections/advanced/) ## Ratings No reviews have been submitted yet.
