AI Content Generator & Calculator Builder by TalkGenAI – GEO, SEO & Widgets
Changelog
2.6.1 – 2026-03-07
Fix: Calculator “more info” toggle now works reliably across all themes — JS inline styles used instead of CSS class toggling; plugin-level footer script also initialises toggles on existing published articles so no regeneration is needed
Fix: Article hero image now placed before the 3rd H2 (below the fold) to avoid impacting Largest Contentful Paint on mobile
Fix: Article images now include a responsive srcset with 400px and 480px sizes — reduces mobile image payload and passes Lighthouse “properly sized images” audit
Fix: Article images use lazy loading to avoid render-blocking on mobile
Improvement: Meta descriptions extended to 145–155 characters for fuller Google search snippets
Security: $_POST[‘custom_urls’] now correctly unslashed before sanitization (PHPCS compliance)
2.6.0 – 2026-03-03
Feature: Interactive Chart widget — bar, line & pie charts with axis titles, hover tooltips and auto-extracted article data

Feature: Brand Voice — create and apply custom writing voices to article generation
Improvement: Widget decision engine now prioritizes high-value widgets (charts, calculators, infographics) over generic lists
Improvement: Chart sizing is now compact with dynamic Y-axis padding so labels are never clipped
Improvement: Chart bars use a bright 8-color palette for better readability

Fix: PUT/PATCH API requests now correctly attach the JSON body
2.5.2 – 2026-02-28

Fix: Brand Voice dropdown was hidden on localhost due to domain filtering — resolved for local WordPress testing
