Presets store the style fields (including the centre logo), not the content.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>Rendering happens entirely in the browser \u2014 no PHP QR library, no third-party API, nothing about your codes leaves the site.<\/p>\n\n<h3>Capabilities<\/h3>\n\n<ul>\n<li>Building, downloading and saving codes needs <code>upload_files<\/code> (Author and up), the same capability WordPress uses for any other upload.<\/li>\n<li><p>Creating and deleting presets needs <code>edit_theme_options<\/code> (Administrator), because presets are shared site-wide.

QR codes are generated in your browser, and saved codes are written to your own Media Library. The panel links out to rscmedia.co.uk and optiq-seo.com, but nothing is sent to either.<\/p>\n\n<!--section=faq-->\n<dl>\n<dt id=\"does%20this%20allow%20svg%20uploads%20on%20my%20site%3F\"><h3>Does this allow SVG uploads on my site?<\/h3><\/dt>\n<dd><p>No. SVG uploads stay disabled site-wide.
