20267 releases

  1. Coupon Creator 3.6.5Latest

    • Show when each license was last checked, and a “Check now” button, on the Licenses tab for Coupon Creator Pro and Add-ons 3.7.1. If the license server cannot be reached, the error shows there.

  2. Coupon Creator 3.6.4

    • Fix coupon copy permissions and keep copies as drafts for users who cannot publish.
    • Add paged coupon search to the classic editor.
    • Fix the last-page flag in shared dropdown searches.
    • Add regression tests and a CI test runner.

  3. Coupon Creator 3.6.3

    • Fix – Deleting the plugin with CCTOR_REMOVE_ALL_DATA defined could stop with a fatal error partway through cleanup, leaving the plugin’s session table behind.
    • Fix – The coupon editor’s expiration date picker ignored the coupon’s own Date Format setting and always used the site-wide default. The date printed on the coupon itself was unaffected.
    • Fix – Corrected a namespace slip in the bundled Plugin Engine’s dropdown search that would have caused a fatal error the first time a searchable picker used it.
    • Tweak – The coupon editor shows a compact Coupon Creator Pro card in the sidebar on sites without Pro: what Pro adds, and a link to the product page. It hides itself when Pro is active, or when CCTOR_HIDE_UPGRADE is defined.
    • Tweak – The getting-started panel links to the free coupon templates page, twelve printable designs to open, print, or recreate.
    • Tweak – The plugin header’s Plugin URI points at the product page instead of a short URL that redirected there.
    • Tweak – Readme: clearer description, two new FAQ entries (templates, coupon sizes), and the templates page.
    • Update – Updated the bundled Plugin Engine to 4.0.9 and confirmed compatibility with WordPress 7.1.3.

  4. Coupon Creator 3.6.2

    • Fix – A Coupon Creator Pro or Add-ons that was switched off for being out of date could no longer be updated from the Plugins screen, so the only way to bring it back was to upload the new version by hand. Update checks now keep running for a switched-off extension, and the update appears where you…
    • Fix – If you had opted into usage tracking, the Deactivate link on the Plugins screen could stop responding whenever another plugin’s JavaScript failed first, leaving no way to switch Coupon Creator off. Deactivate now works whether or not that script runs.
    • Performance – Coupon admin screens no longer contact Google to fetch a stylesheet before loading. The check ran on every visit and could stall the page on sites where that request is slow or blocked; the same stylesheet already ships with the plugin.
    • Privacy – Removed the last request to a third party from the WordPress admin.
    • Tweak – The editor’s coupon inserter no longer loads every coupon you have into its dropdown, which made the button slow to open on large sites.
    • Tweak – The “switched off” notice for an out-of-date Pro or Add-ons now links straight to the Plugins screen.
    • Feature – Added a “Check for updates” link to the Coupon Creator row on the Plugins screen, and to the notice about a switched-off extension. WordPress checks for plugin updates at most every 12 hours and the licence store’s answer is cached for 3 hours on top of that, so a release you know is out…
    • Tweak – Added a Coupon Creator section to Tools > Site Health > Info listing your versions, licence status, and last update check, so a support request can start with the facts.
    • Tweak – Expiration dates and coupon titles are now escaped everywhere they are printed, including the expiration message in the coupon editor.

  5. Coupon Creator 3.6.1

    • Fix – Sites running an older Coupon Creator Pro or Add-ons alongside Coupon Creator 3.6 could stop loading entirely. Out-of-date extensions are now switched off with a notice telling you which one to update, and the site keeps working. Your coupons and settings are untouched.
    • Fix – Restored the Coupons menu on sites where it was missing. Installs set up by a database migration, a staging clone, or by copying the plugin files into place never received the coupon permissions, which hid the Coupons menu and left the Options screen unstyled.
    • Fix – Resolved a fatal error that could occur during scheduled tasks and background requests.
    • Security – Hardened the store address submitted from the licence screen before it is used to contact the licensing server.
    • Update – Updated the bundled Plugin Engine to 4.0.8. Licence checks and plugin update checks now both follow the same store address, so the store can move without needing a new release first.

  6. Coupon Creator 3.6.0

    • Feature – A new coupon design, Modern Ticket, with a perforated ticket stub, a business name line, and colors that pick their own readable text. It is the default for new coupons; your existing coupons keep the design they have, now named Classic.
    • Security – Hardened coupon saving and duplication with additional nonce and capability checks.
    • Fix – Bundled translations now load correctly, so your coupons and settings display in your language.
    • Fix – Coupons set to expire but with no date entered now display as intended instead of silently disappearing.
    • Fix – Removed stray front-end debug output and resolved PHP 8 deprecation notices for cleaner error logs.
    • Tweak – Refreshed the admin experience with the new Artifex Routing Co interface across the Options screen, coupon editor, and coupon list, including a redesigned Coupons menu icon and branded block placeholder.
    • Tweak – Improved keyboard accessibility with a visible focus ring on editor tabs, plus a responsive tab layout and loading indicator.
    • Tweak – Faster coupon display: a bare [coupon] shortcode now shows a sensible number of coupons by default (filterable), with more efficient rendering on pages with many coupons.
    • Tweak – Added optional, opt-in usage tracking to help guide future improvements.
    • Update – Licensing has moved to Easy Digital Downloads Software Licensing, so the activation process is different. Manage your Coupon Creator Pro and Add-ons licenses from the Coupon Creator settings page with the new Manage License control.
    • Update – Updated the bundled Plugin Engine to 4.0.7.
    • Update – Modernized build tooling and confirmed compatibility with WordPress 7.0.2.

  7. Coupon Creator 3.5.0

    • Tweak – Compatible with Coupon Creator Add-ons 3.5: Email Delivery, Email Gate, and deliverability tools for building your email list from your coupons.
    • Security – Improved input sanitization and output escaping across the plugin.
    • Tweak – Improved block editor compatibility and build tooling.
    • Tweak – Updated internal dependencies.
