ver. 4.1.4

21/08/2024

**Added**

* Defined custom cron schedule `every_minute` (runs every 60 seconds).
* Automatically removed `action_scheduler_run_queue` jobs from WP-Cron to prevent excessive debug logging.
* Introduced `[faq_debug]` shortcode to inspect raw post meta for a given FAQ ID (for debugging purposes).
* Added Customizer options to enable/disable “Review” labels and buttons across affiliate templates.
* Added theme options to enable render-blocking scripts and auto-generated meta descriptions for SEO.
* Auto-generate meta description tag on `wp_head` based on post content, taxonomy descriptions, or context.
* JavaScript accessibility improvements: ARIA labels, accessible placeholders, and skip inactive elements via `tabindex=”-1″`.
* Improved `a` tag accessibility by injecting screen reader descriptions via `poka_add_accessible_labels_to_links()`.
* Added ARIA fixes and label injection for various filters and selects in the slots plugin.
* Applied custom header logo styles via SCSS (`max-height` and `object-fit`) to handle tall images properly.

**Replaced**

* Deprecated function `wp_targeted_link_rel()` was removed due to debug log issues.
* Introduced `poka_custom_targeted_link_rel()` to safely add `rel=”noopener noreferrer”` to external links opened in new tabs.

**Fixed**

* Corrected AJAX hook registration for `poka_affiliates_list_sc` to ensure proper functionality of “Load More” button.
* Removed redundant `$reviews` assignment in AJAX handler.
* Cleaned up debug logging in `poka_affiliates_list_sc()` to reduce unnecessary logs.
* Fixed an issue where the `[poka_affiliates_table]` shortcode would fail to render if attributes were left empty. Now uses fallback logic to apply defaults consistently.
* Resolved geolocation database update issue: improved `.gz → .tar → .mmdb` extraction logic, IP validation, and error handling in the admin panel.
* Fixed layout issue with header logo image by applying `max-height` and `object-fit` styling.
* Fixed various visual inconsistencies in post shortcodes, pagination, and comment templates.

**Removed**

* Stripped out `console.log()` calls from Gutenberg block JavaScript files for improved security and cleaner browser console output.
* Removed redirect logic that previously disabled WordPress default feed URLs (`/feed`, `/rss`, `/atom`, etc.).

**Optimized**

* Audited and optimized Core Web Vitals: performance, accessibility, best practices, and SEO.
* Theme now scores among the highest possible results on tools like Google Lighthouse and PageSpeed Insights.
* Added script `defer` logic for render-blocking prevention (optional via Customizer).
* Optimized CSS and JS bundles to reduce size and improve rendering speed.

**Compatible**

* Declared WPML compatibility in the theme’s `style.css` header.
