202610 releases

  1. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.9Latest

    • Improvement: Settings restore preview now separates changed and unchanged fields, counts changes and avoids offering a restore when nothing has changed.
    • Improvement: Refreshed PRO notices and the settings card with a more compact, responsive layout and clearer feature explanations.
    • Update: Replaces Smart COD AI upgrade links with the new Smart COD PRO on woosmartcod.com, preserving country-specific destinations.
    • Update: Adds the launch offer deadline and automatically removes discount messaging when the offer expires.
    • Localization: Updates Greek, Italian, Czech, Slovak and Spanish translations.

  2. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.8

    • Fix – Refresh COD restrictions and fees when country, region, city, postcode or registered address fields change in Checkout Blocks.
    • Fix – Preserve typed address values while checkout updates are pending and apply the latest changes without duplicate manual cart updates.
    • Reliability – Preserve the original order-creation metadata when delivering lifecycle updates and retries.
    • Compatibility – Tested with WordPress 7.1.3 and WooCommerce 11.2.1.
    • Added – Make the dismissible Smart COD AI announcement and detailed settings card available for the public launch.

  3. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.7

    • Reliability – Synchronize plugin version and the explicitly enabled or disabled sharing preference in signed background updates, with revision acknowledgments and retries. Existing sharing choices remain unchanged.
    • Fix – Preserve empty checkout payment fragments when the WooCommerce session expires, avoiding a fatal HTML parsing error.
    • Added – Free settings export and same-store restore with preview, explicit confirmation and protection against expired previews or intervening changes.
    • Security – Exclude sharing consent, credentials, PRO-only options and order/customer data from settings backups.
    • Tests – Add backup validation and restore safety contracts to the mandatory release checks. Classic and Blocks checkout behavior is unchanged.

  4. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.6

    • Maintenance – Remove inactive PRO advance-payment integration code from the Free Blocks adapter and frontend. COD restrictions, fees and Classic checkout behavior remain unchanged.
    • Tests – Add regression checks for Free/PRO separation and crafted advance-payment inputs; verify Classic and Blocks parity with and without HPOS.

  5. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.5

    • Fix – Remove the COD fee in the same shipping update when WooCommerce or another plugin makes COD unavailable, in Classic and Checkout Blocks.
    • Localization – Include complete Greek and Italian catalogs for plugin settings, notices and frontend messages; keep WooCommerce-native text in its own translation domain.
    • Compatibility – Add native Cart/Checkout Blocks support on WooCommerce 9.9+, including COD restrictions, fees and lifecycle capture, while preserving Classic checkout.
    • Feature – Add a configurable successful-COD history allowance: 100% by default, 50-100%, same-store only and never overriding other COD rules.
    • Compatibility – Tested with WordPress 7.1.3 and WooCommerce 11.2.1.
    • Collection – Record prospective physical COD creation snapshots and later outcomes, even without tracking or a 24-hour wait, whenever the existing sharing setting is enabled.
    • Transparency – Explain collection versus qualifying negative evidence, excluded order types, historical limitations, transmitted data and cross-store ML training in the settings and service disclosure.
    • Settings – Keep both editions opt-in and off by default, with one sharing setting for new and existing installations; no additional activation or expansion notice.
    • Reliability – Use signed, durable background revisions with exact acknowledgments, bounded batches, retries and deduplication; exclude changed or late snapshots from the prospective training cohort.
    • Release – ML collection is not live ML scoring. Backend compatibility, disclosure publication and release verification must precede plugin distribution.

  6. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.4

    • Feature – Add optional COD Protection that can hide Cash on Delivery when checkout identity matches an eligible dispatched-then-cancelled COD order from the same store.
    • Privacy – Send only locally generated SHA-256 identity tokens during checkout lookups; raw email and telephone values are never sent and lookup requests are not persisted by the service.
    • Reliability – Keep checkout fail-open with a one-second timeout, strict response validation and short session caching.
    • Admin – Place the opt-in directly below the main COD switch and show a one-time dismissible admin reminder.
    • Localization – Add Greek translations for COD Protection and its data-sharing disclosure.

  7. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.3

    • Compatibility – Replace deprecated product-category queries with the current WordPress API; minimum WordPress version is now 4.5.
    • Security – Prevent direct access to the admin display template.
    • Transparency – Ship the checkout JavaScript in readable, uncompressed form and clarify optional country-level data pooling.
    • Compatibility – Declare WooCommerce as a required plugin.
    • Security – Harden the category search endpoint and escape merchant-facing admin values.
    • Reliability – Safely handle malformed saved settings and sanitize checkout selections used by COD rules.

  8. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.2

    • Privacy – Make cancelled COD data sharing an explicit, default-off merchant opt-in; existing opt-out values do not count as consent.
    • Admin – Remove remote promotional notifications and prominent PRO promotions from the Free plugin.
    • Admin – Remove the remote settings-manager request and PRO-only locked fields; retain the existing local-pickup fee option.
    • Admin – Use the Select2 script supplied by WooCommerce instead of bundling a second copy.
    • Performance – Collect and transmit eligible order evidence only through small, rate-limited background batches; checkout and ordinary storefront requests remain unaffected.
    • Enhancement – Recognise shipment data from supported tracking integrations and preserve custom fulfilment-status evidence without storing customer data in scheduled jobs.
    • Enhancement – Add a conservative fallback for physical COD orders only on shops without a recognised tracking integration, after a minimum one-day order lifetime.
    • Reliability – Re-scan historical eligible orders gradually after this upgrade and enrich the existing central event row without creating duplicate orders.
    • Reliability – Include a bounded snapshot of earlier completed, tracked COD orders for the same shopper at the same shop.
    • Privacy – Stop pending collection and delivery work when the merchant turns sharing off.

  9. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.1

    • Privacy – Tokenise email, telephone, postcode, city and region locally before relay; raw customer identity and location values never leave the store.
    • Privacy – Introduce identity token scheme 1 for deterministic, checkout-compatible matching.

  10. Smart COD for WooCommerce 1.9.0

    • Performance – Remote settings and promotional notices are cached and refreshed only in wp-admin; storefront, AJAX and REST requests no longer make external HTTP requests.
    • Feature – Collect cancelled COD shipment metadata in rate-limited batches.
    • Feature – Queue privacy-minimised Smart COD AI shipment events for secure delivery.
    • Enhancement – Prepare operating-country-scoped customer matching tokens and remove local transport data after central acknowledgement.
    • Reliability – Exclude cancelled COD orders unless a valid courier tracking code provides dispatch evidence.
    • Compatibility – Updated WordPress and WooCommerce compatibility metadata.
