AlphaListing

• Bugfix: fix shortcode attribute not properly carried over to the block setting during shortcode to block conversion.
• Bugfix: prevent PHP 8 TypeError in callbacks.

4.3.6

• [alphalisting exclude-terms] now accepts explicit term listings and consistently filters by numeric term IDs for reliable exclusions.
• Fixed alphalisting_cache() so template tags instantiate the namespaced query class without fatal errors.
• Improved pagination to keep multi-page queries from skipping items and restored the unknown “#” bucket in edge cases.

• Code improvements covering additional internal cleanups.

4.3.5
