2.9.3 – 2024-12-03

Restricted [scancircle_results] attributes to prevent abuse of event attributes in IFRAME

2.9.2 – 2024-11-27

Fixed incomplete update of version number

2.9.1 – 2024-11-27

Fixed small issue to retrieve plugin version

2.9 – 2024-11-27

Added various input validations due to possible security issue reported by Wordfence in CVE-2024-11439 (thanks to zakaria)
Removed deprecated [phpvar] shortcode

2.0 – 2020-07-23

Added shortcode [scancircle_results partner=”PARTNER-CODE” param=”URL-PARAMETERS” IFRAME-ATTRIBUTES]

1.43 – 2018-11-14

Load ScanCircle JavaScript using wp_enqueue_script to ensure jQuery is loaded (if needed)

1.32 – 2015-12-16

Generalized the plugin to cater for future options so new options do not require a new version of the plugin.
The [phpvar] shortcode has been deprecated as there are standard ways and plugins to do this (functionality will remain for the time being)

1.31 – 2015-11-02

For some reason, version 1.27 actually still used v1.24. Updated version number to force a new update and updated support to WP4.3.1.

1.27 – 2015-03-23

Changed https option to load scancircle.js using HTTPS by default unless https=0 is specified. Link to partner environment always uses HTTP (only used if JavaScript is not loaded correctly)

1.24 – 2014-10-13

Load scancircle.js and/or link to partner environment using https, https option added to select which: 2=both, 1=JavaScript only, 0=none (default)

1.23 – 2014-08-04

category option added to indicate the purpose of the scan page and/or reference code, entered data will be prepended to the reference code (separated by a colon)

1.20 – 2013-11-18

inputs option added to support multiple input fields (names separated by semicolon), entered data will be joined (separated by semicolons)
validation option added to check input field for required data, e-mail address, phone number, any regular expression or using a custom function
require option now deprecated (converted to prompt option and validation=\"required\" for backward compatibility)
jquery option added to run script when document.ready (mainly for Joomla web sites which requires tag in header)

1.19 – 2013-11-04

Added [phpvar] shortcode to retrieve the PHP superglobals $_GET, $_POST and $_SERVER
Required to get the value of URL parameters, post variables, initiating web pages, etc.
Added because they may be needed for ScanCircle and I could not find an easy way or simple plugin to achieve this

1.18 – 2013-10-07

First release

\nHow can I change the styling of the scan button or the text?\n\n

See this post in the ScanCircle partner forum

\nWhat is the [scancircle_results …] shortcode for?\n\n

Using this shortcode, you can show the results in an IFRAME on your own website.
\n1. Set the “Own results page” to e.g. https://domain.com/results?language=%s&advice=%s&reference=%s
\n2. On this page include the shortcode [scancircle_results partner=”PARTNER-CODE” param=”URL-PARAMETER” IFRAME-ATTRIBUTES], where
\n– PARTNER-CODE is your partner code (this prevents cross site scripting with non-ScanCircle URLs: only http(s)://PARNER-CODE.scancircle.com/… allowed)
\n– URL-PARAMETER is the name of the URL parameter containing the results URL (in this example “advice”)
\n– IFRAME-ATTRIBUTES are optional IFRAME attributes (e.g. width=”X” height=”Y” class=”Z”)

\nCan I use the shortcodes in a template?\n\n

Yes, but you need the do_shortcode function as in: <?php echo do_shortcode(‘[scancircle…]’); ?>>
