20266 releases

  1. Better Click To Share 6.0.1Latest

    • fix — PHP 8.1+ deprecation when a share box is set to omit the URL (url="no"). We no longer pass null into rawurlencode(), and the X intent link now omits the url query param instead of sending an empty one. Same behavior on older PHP; no more debug.log noise.

  2. Better Click To Share 6.0.0

    • rebrand — Major refresh of the admin interface to emphasize “Better Click To Share” and align with the X rebrand. Settings and plugin UI have been reorganized and restyled for clarity; all existing functionality is unchanged and nothing should break. We’re bumping to 6.0.0 only because the interfac…
    • enhancement — Add-on update order: when an add-on requires a newer core version than the one installed, its settings tab now shows a clear message asking you to update Better Click To Share instead of deactivating the add-on. Add-ons stay active; update core when ready and your existing settings ar…

  3. Better Click To Share 5.15.0

    • feature — “Suggest X Content” panel in the block editor sidebar (WordPress 6.9+): get tweet suggestions from your post and drop in a Better Click To Share block with one click. No AI required — we’ll pull smart excerpts from your content.
    • feature — Optional AI-powered suggestions when you’ve connected a model (WordPress Connectors): our cheekily named assistant “Bill” steps in as a senior social media marketer and drafts an engaging tweet for you. Usage charges apply per your connected provider; we’re not responsible for those, but…
    • enhancement — Site-wide usage agreement for AI: agree once in the editor to accept responsibility for charges; only admins can revoke it (Settings → Better Click To Share). Non-admins see a friendly note that an admin can connect a model.
    • enhancement — Settings page now has an “Allow AI tweet suggestions?” checkbox so admins can turn AI features off for everyone without touching the editor. The editor even links you there with a “disable AI features for all users here” that scrolls straight to the checkbox. We’re helpful like that.
    • enhancement — Block updated to API version 3 for iframe editor compatibility. Better Click To Share works in the iframed post editor and won’t nag you in the console about deprecation. Tested and ready for WordPress 7.0.
    • chore — Tested and confirmed compatibility with WordPress 7.0
    • random — Bill (the AI) has not yet asked for a raise. The promo code CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps remains unclaimed.

  4. Better Click To Share 5.10.0

    • feature — adding a blank [bctt] shortcode populates the Better Click To Tweet box with the post/page’s title.
    • bonus — moved to the country. Incorrectly assumed I’d eat a lot more peaches, based on my extensive knowledge of Presidents Of The United States songs from the 90s
    • chore — confirm compatibility with WordPress 5.7 and PHP 8.0
    • sale — you should reward yourself with the promo code CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps

  5. Better Click To Share 5.9.0

    • enhancement — new onboarding/welcome wizard to help users maximize their productivity with the plugin.
    • fix — at long last, this plugin doesn’t eat up valuable Top Level Menu space, and all menu items for the free plugin or premium addons are moved to tabs.
    • chore — tested up to 5.3, and listen, if you’re not on at least 5.2 for the massive enhancements like recovery mode, you definitely should be.
    • bonus — people keep giving me extra money when they check out at betterclicktoshare.com because they don’t read changelogs. You’ve got a leg up and can get a discount with code CHANGELOG.

  6. Better Click To Share 5.15.1

    • fix — the updater for folks who have premium add-ons was not working. Now it is. No functionality changes to the plugin at all.

20251 release

  1. Better Click To Share 5.14.0

    • fix — Fixed translation loading issues for WordPress 6.8 compatibility by ensuring translations are loaded at the proper time
    • enhancement — Modernized block editor code to use the latest WordPress block editor APIs and patterns
    • enhancement — Added block.json for improved block registration
    • enhancement — Updated React components to use modern patterns and hooks
    • chore — Tested and confirmed compatibility with WordPress 6.8
    • random — Still waiting for someone to use the promo code CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps

20241 release

  1. Better Click To Share 5.13.0

    • enhancement — finally gave up hope that Elon Musk would come to his senses on this whole “rebrand” thing, and went about removing the words “Tweet” and “Twitter” from the user interfaces throughout the plugin. Of course, you’ll note that we didn’t change the name of the plugin, but any place where…
    • chore — checked for compatibility with the latest version of WordPress
    • random — Checking to see if there’s a record to be broken on age-of-unused-promo-code (the promo code is CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps) but the folks at Guinness won’t return my calls.

20233 releases

  1. Better Click To Share 5.12.0

    • fix — the title was immediately overwriting things if users cleared the text from the block. Now it waits three seconds, and if you’ve not typed anything, it’ll overwrite it.
    • chore — I forgot to mention in the 5.11.1 changelog, but I also tested for compatibility with WordPress 6.2
    • news — Twitter has been doing some relatively aggressive repositioning under Elon Musk, but so far none of the changes there have adversely affected Better Click To Tweet. I’m obiviously keeping an eye on things, but overall just kinda sad that lots of good people have left Twitter.
    • random — I still feel like more of you could be using the promo code CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps, considering nobody ever has.

  2. Better Click To Share 5.11.1

    • chore — update the dependencies related to wp_scripts. This should have no effect other than stabilizing performance related to the block editor and compatibility with other plugins that use the block editor.

  3. Better Click To Share 5.11.0

    • chore — remove the MailChimp sign-up option from the settings pages, replacing it with mailerlite.
    • chore — attempted to get my 5-year-old to do his homework. Was way harder than anticipated. You should use the code CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps

20223 releases

  1. Better Click To Share 5.10.4

    • security — prevent unauthenticated access to some settings.

  2. Better Click To Share 5.10.3

    • updated compatibility for PHP 8.0 and 8.1
    • checked to make sure it works on the forthcoming WordPress 6.1

  3. Better Click To Share 5.10.2

    • fix – patch minor security issue. Short version: if an attacker already has admin access to your site (or feeds a vulnerable admin user a specific string) they could execute code remotely on sites with very specific server configurations. But if an attacker already has admin access to your site, th…
    • chore – tested for compatibility with WordPress 6.0
    • chore – the number of people using promo codes is too (darn) low. Use promo code CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps

20211 release

  1. Better Click To Share 5.10.1

    • fix — resolved a bug where Better Click To Tweet was not playing nicely with other plugins that made changes to the title related filters.
    • chore — unrelated to the plugin, there’s so much pollen in the air in South Carolina. You can see it like a cloud. Use promo code CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps

20204 releases

  1. Better Click To Share 5.9.5

    • chore — check for compatibility with the upcoming WordPress version 5.6
    • enhancement — update some of the links and text on the settings page.

  2. Better Click To Share 5.9.4

    • fix — the upsell nag was previously showing on any page that was related to plugins, including the update interface. now it only shows up on the plugins page itself.
    • chore — tested up to WordPress version 5.5

  3. Better Click To Share 5.9.3

    • fix — a woocommerce function somehow made it into my setup wizard, which has been removed now. It was causing errors on a select few installs on installation.
    • switcheroo — going back to featuring the Premium styles add-on in the plugins page upsell. You should buy that with a coupon of CHANGELOG at https://benlikes.us/bcttps

  4. Better Click To Share 5.9.2

    • fix — the links being sent to mailchimp for those opting into the newsletter were sending an incorrect subset, resulting in incorrect data.

20197 releases

  1. Better Click To Share 5.9.1

    • fix — resolve a minor error on the Premium Styles tab of the settings with folks who had their own custom styles enqueued but not the offical Premium Styles add-on.
    • bonus — there’s still not-so-much usage for the CHANGELOG discount code at https://benlikes.us/bcttps I’m personally fine with folks paying full price, tho.

  2. Better Click To Share 5.8.2

    • fix — resolving PHP notices related to the custom URL not being set.
    • fix — resolve outstanding errors around UTM tags add-on integration.
    • chore — tested up to WordPress version 5.2. you should definitely be on 5.2. It’s awesome.
    • bonus — I feel like you people aren’t reading my changelogs. I’m over here handing out discounts, and y’all just keep paying full price. try CHANGELOG to see if you get 10% off!

  3. Better Click To Share 5.8.1

    • new — created a new nag for the plugins page announcing the UTM tags add-on.
    • new — added a link to the main settings page for folks to check out the new UTM Tags addon.

  4. Better Click To Share 5.8.0

    • new — adding a filter and various other enhancements to support a new UTM tags add-on
    • fix — testing with the newest version of the block-based editor (Gutenberg)
    • new — added a constant to define the core BCTT version, allowing add-ons to make sure that BCTT core is up to date before activating.

  5. Better Click To Share 5.7.2

    • fix — two spelling typos in the new License activation page. Thanks to @garrett-eclipse on Github for the fix.
    • fix — on certain installs I was getting a front end notice about an undefined variable. This patch fixes that. Thanks to @dannycooper for the help!

  6. Better Click To Share 5.7.1

    • fix — replace premium styles page for premium styles users.
