Occupancy Plan

Changelog

1.6.4

• Feature: Turn the one-sided booking limit into a true booking window with independent Start and End values
• Feature: Booking Window Start is a signed calendar-day offset; negative values allow retrospective bookings, zero starts today and positive values block spontaneous bookings by requiring lead time
• Feature: Booking Window End continues to limit how far in advance bookings are allowed; zero means no upper limit, so 0/0 means today onward without a future limit
• Compatibility: Migrate the former bookingwindow value to bookingwindowend and initialize bookingwindowstart with zero
• Security: Enforce both booking-window boundaries when opening, creating and drag-and-drop moving frontend bookings, not only when rendering available slots
• Data exchange: Export the new booking-window fields and remain compatible with legacy schedule CSV imports
• UI: Update schedule fields, tooltips and contextual help for the two-sided booking window
• Localization: Polish the bundled German translation, including booking-window wording and consistent backend terminology
• Localization: Merge bundled translations as a fallback after the normal WordPress language pack so newly added release strings do not temporarily remain untranslated
• Compatibility: Resolve Plugin Check findings for the WordPress 4.9 translation fallback and safely escaped plugin-owned table identifiers during the 1.6.4 schema migration

1.6.3

• Fix: Run the database/role migration check on init instead of plugins_loaded so localized role names no longer trigger WordPress 6.7+ _load_textdomain_just_in_time notices.
• UI: Compact the read-only frontend booking details dialog to 24px fields with reduced row spacing
• Fix: Frontend details remain available when booking is disabled; current pages use the detail endpoint directly and stale cached edit markup is resolved server-side without a 403 round-trip.
• Feature: Add the theme shortcode parameter with Classic, Modern, Cards, Minimal, Dark, Soft, Outline and Sport frontend themes
• Feature: Add the independent density shortcode parameter with Normal, Compact and Spacious spacing
• UI: Add Theme and Density selectors to the backend Preview and show the resulting shortcode for easy reuse
• Compatibility: Keep Classic and Normal as defaults so existing shortcodes retain their current appearance
• Improvement: Preserve theme and density during AJAX date, week, month, year and court navigation
• Improvement: Scope schedule colors per plan and expose them as CSS custom properties so multiple themed schedules can coexist on one page
• Documentation: Add theme/density parameters and practical examples to the contextual shortcode help
• UI: Refine the Dark theme so weekday/resource headers and the complete time column stay consistently dark while individual booking colors remain unchanged
• UI: Make frontend booking form controls more compact and resistant to oversized theme defaults
• UI: Further reduce booking field heights and remove the explanatory Court 2 text for a denser dialog
• Feature: Make the optional second court selectable per schedule; existing grouped bookings remain editable when the option is switched off
• Fix: Restore reliable confirmation/privacy checkbox interaction and validate required confirmation on the server
• Fix: Preserve the explicitly configured weekday of recurring weekly, monthly and biweekly bookings when an existing booking is opened and saved
• Fix: Reconcile stale cached court IDs with current court/child-court labels before rendering a new booking dialog

1.6.2

• UI: Align the contextual Help panel with the Create/Edit Booking panel and keep a consistent gutter between both columns
• Fix: Restore the backend booking form on current WordPress/PHP versions by replacing the unavailable required() helper with a plugin-owned compatibility helper
• Maintenance: Silence five false-positive prepared-SQL warnings by attaching PHPCS exceptions directly to trusted plugin table identifiers
• Compatibility: Verified PHP syntax with PHP 8.4

1.6.1

• Feature: Add an optional second court/resource to frontend bookings
• Feature: Store multi-court reservations as synchronized booking groups while continuing to render one normal booking per court
• Validation: Check both selected resources for conflicts before saving and prevent overlapping selections within the same booking
• Improvement: Editing or deleting either entry updates or deletes the complete multi-court booking
• Improvement: Keep recurring-booking exceptions synchronized across both resources
• Improvement: Move one-time grouped bookings together when using drag and drop
• Improvement: Make administration and bulk deletion group-aware
• Data exchange: Preserve booking group identifiers in block CSV export/import

1.6.0

• Tested with WordPress version 7.1
• Fix: Let Occupancy Editors edit, move and delete bookings they created themselves while keeping Authorized Users restricted to Occupancy Owners and managers
• Fix: Delete frontend bookings through a dedicated authenticated AJAX endpoint with nonce, schedule and ownership checks
• Fix: Decouple the core frontend click/AJAX script from optional jQuery UI and color-picker dependencies so optimization or theme changes cannot suppress booking interaction entirely
• Compatibility: Enqueue Occupancy Plan assets during the regular wp_enqueue_scripts phase when the shortcode is present, with shortcode-time loading retained as a fallback for dynamic builders
• Fix: Repair missing capabilities on existing Occupancy Plan roles during normal plugin updates, including legacy Occupancy Editor installations, so editors retain permission to create frontend bookings
