20264 releases

  1. Pinyin Slugs 2.3.9Latest

    • date: August 18, 2026
    • Fixed: Settings link on the Plugins page was conflicting with other plugins
  2. Pinyin Slugs 2.3.8

    • date: August 16, 2026
    • Fixed: replaced __FILE__ with a plain text slug (so-pinyin-slugs) for the settings page, as using __FILE__ for menu slugs risks exposing the filesystem structure (Plugin Check warning)
    • Fixed: updated the Settings link on the Plugins page to match the new page slug
    • Improved: the Settings link now hooks into plugin_action_links_{plugin_file} instead of the global plugin_action_links filter, so the callback no longer runs for every other plugin row
    • Improved: internationalised the page title and menu title of the settings page
    • Improved: removed obsolete hidden action and page_options form fields, which are already handled by settings_fields()
    • Improved: added a fallback value for the slug length field to prevent a PHP notice when the option is missing
