AIT Easy Post Customization

2.1.0 – 2026-03-16

• NEW: Multiple expiry actions — choose Draft, Trash, Delete Permanently, or Redirect to URL per post or site-wide default.
• NEW: Email notifications — send automatic reminders to post authors 1, 3, 7, 14, or 30 days before expiry. Configurable sender, per-user unsubscribe link.
• NEW: Gutenberg block editor sidebar — set expiry date and action directly from the native block editor panel (no page reload needed).
• NEW: REST API unsubscribe endpoint (aitepc/v1/unsubscribe) for stateless, token-verified email opt-outs.
• NEW: Developer hooks — aitepc_before_expiry_action, aitepc_after_expiry_action, aitepc_notification_email_data filter.
• NEW: uninstall.php — clean option and cron removal when plugin is deleted.
• IMPROVED: Cron handler now delegates to configurable action processor instead of always drafting.
• IMPROVED: Email Notifications tab replaces “Coming Soon” tab in admin dashboard.
• IMPROVED: Expiry metabox retitled to “Expiry Settings” and now includes action dropdown and redirect URL field.
