Code Embed

I use semantic versioning, with the first release being 1.0.

2.5.1

• Enhancement: Changed wp_remote_get to wp_safe_remote_get to improve security

2.5

• Enhancement: This release is a revised version of 2.4, with less impact to other plugins and users. See the README for more details, but this undoes the changes in 2.4 and adds in filtering of code embed fields for users without the correct permissions.
• Bug: Fixed a long time bug that could cause an infinite loop to occur in rare situations

2.4

• Enhancement: A vulnerability was raised to me but is actually an issue with Core. I’ve implemented a fix that protects not just this plugin but any others you may have installed. Please read the section in the README titled “Custom Field Security” for more details
• Enhancement: Tweaked a few bits of code here. No visible changes, just quality improvements

2.3.9

• Enhancement: So, let me tell you a story. To make the output look neat, I was adding carriage returns to the embeds. Except, if you want to embed something part way through a line it can look… well… wrong. And all for it looking clean. Remember kids, cleanliness isn’t always next to Godliness. Needless to say, those rogue carriage returns are gone
• Enhancement: Whilst I was at it, I updated some of the settings code to a brand-spanking new version, which I’m sharing across all my plugins
• Enhancement: Tidied up some of the assets, including adding a blueprint for WordPress Playground

2.3.8

• Bug: You know that vulnerability I fixed in 2.3.7? It fixed that but broke something else. That should now resolved. Apologies for that.

2.3.7

• Bug: Fixed a bug which created a potentual vulnerabilty
• Enhancement: Improved code quality, using the latest version of PHPCS and WordPress sniffs

2.3.6

• Bug: Fixed a variable that was incorrectly assigned. It happens. I guess.

2.3.5

• Enhancement: Cleared up a big batch of code quality issues. Now it ticks all the boxes for both the WordPress and VIP rulesets in PHPCS.
• Enhancement: A new, richer, header has been added to the plugin file.
• Enhancement: The plugin version number is now used as a revision for the script queueing – this means that it be cached by the browser until the plugin release changes.
• Enhancement: Lots of changes made to the README – hopeful it should read easier than before!

2.3.4

• Bug: Fixed minor error that occurred due to the removal of the debug code in the last release. Sorry about that.

2.3.3

• Enhancement: I’ve removed the debug code. I allowed to be switched off but I’ve never used it and it may not have switched off properly anyway. So it’s gone
• Enhancement: Added some additional plugin meta

2.3.2

• Bug: Fixed another pesky bug that was affecting embedded URLs. My code to do this was years old and I couldn’t understand why I’d written it the way I had. So I’ve re-written it from scratch

2.3.1

• Bug: Fixed a variable naming issue that I may, or may not (I did), have created in the latest release

2.3

• Enhancement: All the code is now compliant with the full-fat VIP coding standards. It was no mean feat but, as a result, the plugin is more secure than ever before
• Enhancement: The default is to now use double braces around your embed name, which is kind-of the universal default for template tags such as this. If you’re an existing user, your current configuration won’t change, though – this only affects new users
• Enhancement: Improved translation output, including where I’d accidentally added an extra character to the text domain
• Enhancement: Using the checked function on fields, rather than the form parameter
• Enhancement: Added a useful links sidebar to the Help for both screens
• Maintenance: Throughout, use Yoda conditions I now do
• Maintenance: Added links to the sparkly new Github repo
• Bug: When updating the options you sometimes didn’t get a confirmation message. You do now!
• Bug: Fixed a weird one where I was referencing a variable that I was never using ¯_(ツ)_/¯

2.2.2

• Maintenance: Updated README to work better with new plugin directory format. Also, now converting all text to US English, which is the WordPress standard. Snazzy.
• Maintenance: Updated all links to artiss.blog and removed donation links. Clickable.
• Maintenance: Minimum WordPress level is now 4.6 for this plugin, meaning I could remove various pieces of code. Strong and stable.
• Maintenance: Lots of language updates, many of which are a consequence of the move to WordPress 4.6 (including removal of language files and links, etc). Verbacious.

2.2.1

• Maintenance: Updated branding, inc. adding donation links

2.2

• Enhancement: Added support for embedding code in excerpts
• Enhancement: Validated, sanitized and escaped the admin screen data
