Add “Always redirect to fallback” toggle – overrides browser language matching, sends every non-bot visitor to the chosen fallback language. Useful when the WordPress site language is set to one language but the customer wants traffic served from a different language URL prefix by default.
Sync auto_redirect, auto_redirect_fallback, and auto_redirect_force_fallback from the LangRelay API so dashboard changes propagate to the plugin.
Refactor LangRelay_Auto_Redirect::maybe_redirect to use a pure resolve() method for testability.
1.9.5
Fix: language switcher chevron now sits inline next to the flag/language name. The 1.9.4 button reset (display: contents) inadvertently broke the default row layout of the customizable select; explicitly making the select an inline-flex row restores it.
1.9.4
Fix: language switcher’s inner trigger button now correctly resets against page-builder themes. With appearance: base-select, the browser renders a <button> inside the <select> that themes like Elementor were re-styling (red background, uppercase text). The 1.9.3 fix scoped the <select> styles but missed this inner button. Now explicitly resets it with all: unset; display: contents at higher specificity.
1.9.3
Fix: language switcher styles now beat aggressive page-builder themes (Elementor, Divi, etc.) by scoping selectors under .langrelay-switcher for higher specificity. Also explicitly resets text-transform, letter-spacing, font-weight, and text-align so themes that style bare button elements no longer leak through.
1.9.2
Security: escape hreflang and canonical output with wp_kses().
Security: use wp_add_inline_script() for translation preloading instead of raw script injection.
Security: eliminate unescaped full-page echo by using ob_start() callback.
Improvement: rename all transient prefixes from lr_ to langrelay_ for consistency.
Fix: stale mock prefix in cache purge test after transient rename.
1.9.1
Security: use wp_safe_redirect() for auto language redirects.
Security: remove token preview from debug REST endpoint.
Improvement: bundle country flag SVGs locally instead of loading from external CDN.
1.9.0
WordPress.org plugin review compliance: removed “WordPress” trademark from display name, fixed Plugin URI, properly sanitize all settings fields in register_setting callback, and explicitly close output buffer via shutdown hook.
New: setup wizard now lets you select an existing organization and project instead of requiring a new one.
Removed debug panel from setup wizard.
1.8.1
Fix: languages added in the LangRelay dashboard now auto-sync to WordPress via a project.updated webhook event.
New: manual “Sync” button in the Project Status card to pull the latest project settings (languages, source language) from the dashboard on demand.
Improvement: existing installs automatically reconcile their webhook subscription on the next admin page load to include the new project.updated event.
1.8.0
Dynamic content translation: modals, AJAX panels, and client-rendered content (React, Vue, Svelte) now translate without flickering or invisible text.
Performance: client-side translations are cached in localStorage with automatic version-based invalidation when you edit translations in the dashboard.
Performance: first batch of dynamic text translates immediately (no 300ms debounce delay on initial render).
New: server-side translation map is pre-loaded into the client SDK, so shared strings translate instantly from cache.
New: debug logging via ?langrelay_debug=1 query param or data-debug=”true” on the script tag for troubleshooting.
1.7.1
Fix: script blocks containing HTML string literals (e.g. WooCommerce gallery scripts building <a> and <img> tags in JavaScript) are no longer corrupted by the URL rewriter. DOMDocument now skips script and style blocks during URL rewriting.
Fix: translation matching is now case-insensitive. Menu items and other text styled with CSS text-transform (e.g. “wallcoverings” in HTML displayed as “Wallcoverings” via CSS) now match translations regardless of casing.
1.7.0
Email translation: outgoing WordPress emails (wp_mail) can now be translated to the recipient’s language. Enable under Settings > LangRelay.
WooCommerce email integration: order confirmations and other WooCommerce emails are automatically translated when email translation is enabled.
Batch translation API: new translate_batch() method for translating plain text strings without HTML overhead.
URL slug routing fix: translated URL slugs are now reverse-translated before WordPress routing, fixing 404s on translated permalink slugs.
Bundled client JavaScript locally instead of loading from an external server.
Various wp.org Plugin Check compliance fixes.
