PromoTimer – Flash Sale Scheduler for WooCommerce

Changelog

1.0.5

  • Fix: PHP Fatal Error on LiteSpeed Cache servers — removed static call to LiteSpeedPurge::purge_post() which is not a static method in newer LiteSpeed versions; replaced with do_action hook for compatibility with all versions
  • Fix: Emoji icon could not be saved on servers where MySQL uses utf8 (3-byte) charset — replaced text input with a dropdown selector; emoji keys are stored as ASCII identifiers and mapped to HTML entities at display time
  • Fix: Settings form failed silently when emoji field contained a 4-byte UTF-8 character, preventing all other settings from saving
  • Fix: Cleanup cron skipped products with empty End Time field; now defaults to 23:59 matching frontend behavior
  • Improvement: Emoji now displays correctly in all contexts — single product page, shop loop, product variations, and page builder widgets (Elementor, Divi, Gutenberg etc.)
  • Improvement: Date format in promo messages now follows WordPress Settings → General → Date Format instead of hardcoded Romanian format

1.0.4

  • Fix: Sale price was recreated in database after cleanup cron ran
  • Fix: Price not fully reset to regular price after promotion expiry

1.0.3

  • Fix: After promotion expiry, product price was not displaying correctly on the product page
  • Fix: Sale price was not fully removed from database after cleanup cron ran

1.0.2

  • Fix: Sale price was incorrectly applied in cart and checkout before campaign start time
  • Fix: WooCommerce price cache was not cleared after promotion expiry
  • Fix: Countdown was displaying “0d” and “0h” — now hidden automatically when value is zero
  • Fix: Incorrect timezone on servers running UTC — replaced time() with wp_timezone()
  • Fix: Product page was showing cached content after promotion expiry on LiteSpeed/WP Rocket/W3TC
  • New: Promo badge now appears in shop/category/archive pages
