Changelog: Event Dates and Calendar

Changelog: Event Dates and Calendar - Our tracked changes to our excellent plugin.

1.4.0 (2026-01-26)

Added - "Default" color picker button to revert styling colors to plugin defaults.
Added - "Force style" toggles that apply !important to styling options.
Fixed - Build script output now targets the plugin's /dist folder when run from repo root.

Fixed - Cleared Plugin Check warnings (nonces, SQL prepare usage, file headers, output escaping).
Update - Refined WooCommerce settings UI with subtabs and cleaner admin styling.
Added - Gutenberg block for the calendar shortcode.

Fixed - Addressed security scanner warnings (prepared SQL, REST permissions, output escaping).
Added - Declared HPOS compatibility and added WooCommerce header metadata.

Fixed - Prevented mobile clipping by adding a horizontal scroll wrapper and fixed column widths so all 7 days stay visible on small screens.
Update - Cache-busted frontend assets to force browsers to load updated CSS/JS.

Added an optional "Event Type" (product category) filter dropdown with a configurable label, shown when the calendar is not locked to a category.
Added Quick Edit support for event start/end, time, and venue on the Products list screen.
Enabled the WP color picker on styling settings and cache-bust admin assets to avoid stale JS/CSS.
Standardized on the `[event_dates_calendar]` shortcode (aliases removed to avoid conflicts).
Fixed venues settings rendering and submission so venue add/delete works without nested forms.
Added license key activation (Kestrel API Manager) and block calendar output until activated.

Fixed popstate (browser back/forward) handling to reliably restore month + venue.
Prevented venue-select ID collisions when multiple calendars appear on the same page.
Improved URL syncing for venue filtering:
- Only writes ec_venue when the calendar is not venue-locked.
- Does not apply URL venue changes to venue-locked calendars.

Rebranded: Event Dates & Calendar for WooCommerce
Code prefix updated to sa_edcwc_
Added Venues:
- Create/manage venues in WooCommerce → Event Calendar
- Select a venue on the product editor (stored in _sa_edcwc_event_venue)
- Shortcode attribute: venue="venue-slug" to lock a calendar to a venue
- Front-end venue filter dropdown (only shown when the shortcode does not set venue)
Added uninstall option: Remove data on uninstall (drops the indexed table + deletes plugin options)
Added admin page footer: “Built by Syllable” (Syllable links to https://syllable.agency)
