Changelog

  • Rebuild plugin on the current azurecurve modular plugin pattern (namespaced includes/ files); no change to the call-out-box/cob shortcode tags, the call-out-box custom post type, or stored settings/template data.
  • Add a “Process shortcodes within content” setting; the underlying option existed previously but had no way to enable it from the Settings screen.
  • Fix: remove Network Admin hooks that pointed at undefined functions and could fatal-error on multisite installs.
  • Fix: correct text domain used on the plugin’s “Settings” action link.
  • Fix: use proper attribute escaping for call-out box inline styles, instead of an incorrectly-applied translation function.
  • Fix: avoid an unnecessary template lookup when the shortcode is used without a key parameter.
  • Fix: the “Integrate with Icons” setting is now correctly respected everywhere an icon could be shown (front-end shortcode output and the admin example previews on the Settings page and template edit screen); previously an icon could appear whenever the Icons plugin was simply active, regardless of whether integration had been turned on.
  • Add an Instructions tab to the Settings screen, and split settings across Settings / Instructions / Other Plugins tabs for consistency with other azurecurve plugins.
