  1. VK Link Target Controller 1.10.6Latest

    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where deleting the plugin on a multisite network left post meta and settings behind on subsites other than the one where the deletion was performed.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where the internal link search dialog opened from the redirect URL panel in the block editor could not be closed until the page was reloaded.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where the “Search internal link” button in the redirect URL panel of the block editor was displayed in English on Japanese sites.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue in the classic editor where opening and updating a post could change a redirect URL containing percent-encoded components (such as %3A) or +. The URL field now displays the stored URL without decoding it.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where & in redirect URLs saved in the classic editor was displayed as & in the block editor panel.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where the “View” link in the admin posts list pointed to the redirect URL instead of the post page for posts with a redirect URL set.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue on sites installed in a subdirectory (home URL with a path such as /blog) where opening a post whose redirect URL is a relative path (such as /about/) directly sent visitors to the domain root instead of the subdirectory. If you have saved a redirect URL with the subdirec…
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where the_permalink() called without an argument printed the post URL instead of the redirect URL, breaking theme features that read the link such as PDF icons.

  2. VK Link Target Controller 1.10.5

    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where redirect URLs delivered via Ajax kept HTML-encoded ampersands ( & ), breaking external URLs with multiple query parameters.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue on PHP 8.0 or earlier where redirect URLs containing single quotes were left partially HTML-encoded, resulting in broken links.

  3. VK Link Target Controller 1.10.4

    • [ Other ] Updated “Tested up to” to 7.1, verified against the WordPress 7.1 release candidate.

  4. VK Link Target Controller 1.10.3

    • [ Other ] Corrected “Tested up to” from 7.1 to 7.0, matching the WordPress versions actually verified in CI (the 7.1 core tag was not yet available for testing).

  5. VK Link Target Controller 1.10.2

    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an undefined array key PHP warning on PHP 8.x when the nonce field is absent from the post save request.
    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue on the settings screen where styles and scripts could fail to update due to caching after an update, and an issue where the left side navigation could be cut off when notices were displayed.
    • [ Security Fix ] Fixed an issue where the AJAX link target endpoint (action=ids) could expose link settings for non-published posts (e.g. drafts) to unauthenticated users. The query now explicitly limits results to published posts.

  6. VK Link Target Controller 1.10.1

    • [ Bug Fix ] Fixed an issue where the redirect URL could not be saved, displayed, or updated on custom post types. The fix covers CPTs registered later by other plugins (e.g. CPT UI, ExUnit), CPTs with a customized capability_type (e.g. a CPT using edit_sites instead of edit_posts), and CPTs that do…

  7. VK Link Target Controller 1.10.0

    • [ Spec Change ] Rename option key from ‘custom-post-types’ to ‘vk_ltc_custom_post_types’ to avoid conflicts with other plugins. Existing data is automatically migrated. Added fallback to legacy key for frontend requests before admin_init migration runs.
    • [ Add Function ] Show an edit link next to post titles for logged-in users who have edit permission, when a redirect URL is set on the post.
    • [ New Feature ] Clean up plugin-specific data (post meta and options) from the database when the plugin is deleted.
    • [ Other ] Fix incorrect sample code in plugin description (class attribute is required, not id).

  8. VK Link Target Controller 1.9.0

    • [ Specification change ] Migrate meta box to block editor native sidebar panel for WordPress 7.0 RTC (Real-Time Collaboration) compatibility.

  9. VK Link Target Controller 1.8.1
