Fix: “Set as Featured Image” now works for all image sources — WordPress’s built-in media_sideload_image() rejects URLs without a file extension (e.g. Unsplash raw URLs), so the sideload endpoint now downloads first then detects the image type from file content before importing
1.1.0
New: Pixabay image source — adds millions of high-quality, commercially free stock photos. Enter your free Pixabay API key under Settings → Swell AI Image Block, or use the managed service to search Pixabay alongside Unsplash, Pexels, and Wikimedia Commons.
1.0.9
Fix: Wikimedia Commons images now display correctly after selection — the plugin no longer attempts to construct thumbnail URLs that Wikimedia cannot serve, instead using the original file URL for images already at an appropriate size
1.0.8
Fix: Wikimedia Commons images no longer show as broken — root cause was a URL regex failing on cache-timestamp query params appended by Wikimedia
1.0.7
New: AI Featured Image panel in the Document sidebar — finds and sets a featured image based on your post title, with shuffle support
Fix: AI Featured Image panel now correctly renders on WordPress 6.6+ (updated to use @wordpress/editor package)
1.0.4
New: Settings page (Settings → Swell AI Image Block) for entering own API keys — enables free unlimited usage without the managed service
New: Upgrade prompt now shows both the Pro upgrade path and the own-key free path
Fix: Plugin renamed to Swell AI Image Block with new slug for WordPress.org compliance
Fix: PHP prefix updated to SWIB_ (4+ characters per WP guidelines)
Fix: Freemius files excluded from WordPress.org build
1.0.6
Fix: Hide Photo Credits toggle is now available to all users (WP.org Guideline 5 compliance)
1.0.5
Fix: Own API keys now correctly bypass stale quota state — searching and analysis work immediately after entering keys, even if the free limit was previously hit
Fix: Undefined constant linter errors for SWIB_OPENAI_API_KEY, SWIB_UNSPLASH_ACCESS_KEY, SWIB_PEXELS_API_KEY, and SWIB_PROXY_URL
1.0.4
Fix: Tested up to set to WordPress 6.7
1.0.3
