20261 release

  1. Metronet Tag Manager 1.6.0Latest

    • Released 2026-04-24
    • Tested up to WordPress 7.0.
    • Fixed plugin URI pointing to wrong plugin slug (was metronet-profile-picture, now metronet-tag-manager), resolving false-positive security scanner alerts.
    • Added GTM tag output on the WordPress login page — new “Enable on login page” toggle in settings.
    • Fixed %category% and similar placeholders being incorrectly stripped during sanitization; reworked sanitize_value() to preserve any %placeholder% token regardless of surrounding text.
    • Wired up Gutenberg REST API route for reading and saving per-post dataLayer variables (previously register_routes() was empty dead code).
    • WPCS 3.0 compliance: renamed getMessage() to get_message(), replaced curl with wp_remote_get(), added $wpdb->prepare() in uninstall.php.
    • Added five new built-in dataLayer variable placeholders: %category% (primary category slug), %tags% (comma-separated tag slugs), %post_id% (numeric post ID), %permalink% (canonical URL), %language% (site locale via get_locale()).
    • Added Google Consent Mode v2 support: configurable default consent states (analytics_storage, ad_storage, ad_user_data, ad_personalization, functionality_storage, personalization_storage, security_storage) output as a gtag() call before the GTM snippet.
    • Added Settings Import/Export: export all plugin settings as a JSON file and re-import them on another site via the admin UI.
    • Added Conditional Tag Loading: new checkboxes to exclude GTM from logged-in users and/or mobile devices (uses wp_is_mobile()).
    • Added standalone Gutenberg block metronettagmanager/datalayer-push — insert a button anywhere in the block editor; configure the event name, key, and value in the block inspector; renders a frontend button that fires dataLayer.push() on click.
