Release 1.1.2 – debugging switches and size validation
1.1.2
Released: March 8, 2026
Fixed: Debugging Constants switches not applying changes to wp-config.php due to outdated settings registration; now correctly updates WP_DEBUG, WP_DEBUG_LOG, WP_DEBUG_DISPLAY, and SCRIPT_DEBUG.
Changed: Removed hard 1G upper limit from size validators so larger values like 2G+ are accepted, relying on PHP/server limits and relationship checks instead.
1.1.1
Released: March 8, 2026
Added: Plugin usage tracker integration — optional anonymous install/activation reporting to improve plugin services (site URL, WordPress version, plugin version; no personally identifiable data in clear text)
Added: Admin notice explaining data collection with link to privacy details
Improved: Tracker integration runs on activation and sends version/site info for service updates
1.1.0
Released: March 5, 2026
Refactored: Complete modular architecture — main plugin file reduced from 2,000+ lines to ~300 lines
Refactored: All features moved into self-contained modules (General Settings, Tools, Status, Extensions, PHP Settings, About)
Refactored: Each module owns its own settings registration, rendering, and action handling

Fixed: Broken sanitize callback reference in General Settings module
Fixed: Form/handler mismatch — export, import, and reset handlers now live in the Tools module alongside their forms
Improved: Cleaner separation of concerns with public getters on the main class
Improved: Tools tab now consolidates debugging settings, log viewer, export/import, and reset in one place
Removed: Legacy duplicate file (includes/class-easy-php-settings.php) that referenced non-existent classes
