Change Log

1.0.18

  • Change: the bundled donate-notice class is renamed from the shared Effortless_Donate_Notice to ELCMT_Donate_Notice, so the class name carries this plugin’s own prefix and cannot collide with another EffortLess plugin loading its own copy.

1.0.17

  • Change: tested against WordPress 7.1 and the “Tested up to” header updated to 7.1. No functional changes.
  • Change: the donate notice’s outbound link no longer includes the site address as a query parameter. It still identifies the plugin and version so support requests can be matched to a release, but not which installation was viewing it.

1.0.16

  • Change: moved the settings page from a standalone “EffortLess” top-level menu to Settings > Meta Tags.
