<p>After single two-minute-long installation your website will have social features: activity, friends, likes, groups, messaging, market and much more.<br />
What this plugin is for: Big social networks put plenty of websites out of business, because anyone can create a group on a major Social Network (such as Facebook, VKontakte, LinkedIn, Odnoklassniki, etc.), and it’s much easier than to build and support your own website.<br />
We want to get web-masters back into the game, arming them with the same functionality the “grown-up” social networks have.</p>

<h4> Customization </h4>
<p>Use the admin interface (look for “GRA4 Settings” in the admin menu) to adjust the social content position.<br />
See Video Tutorial at the http://gra4.com/wiki/GRA4_for_WordPress_Settings for details.<br />
If you need deeper customization, edit style file <em>custom.css</em> in your <em>wp-content/plugins/gra4/css/</em> directory.<br />
GRA4 content is about 1000px wide, so we also recommend to switch off sidebars for the GRA4 page if the theme offers such option.</p>
<h4> Compatibility </h4>
<p>GRA4 Social Network supplies the dynamic content even for non-logged users of your website.<br />
Therefore if you use caching plugins, we recommend to switch of the caching for all pages bellow the<br />

<p>Feedorax gives logged-in members a familiar social experience inside your site. Drop the timeline on any page with the shortcode or the <strong>Feedorax Timeline</strong> block (great for block themes). Visitors get public member profiles at pretty URLs (<code>/feedorax-profile/username/</code>), while your data stays in Feedorax users, user meta, and dedicated plugin tables. A REST API powers the UI and can support custom integrations.</p>
<p><strong>Features:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><strong>Timeline</strong> – Social feed with posts, reactions, and comments (shortcode: <code>[feedorax_timeline]</code>)</li>
<li><strong>User search</strong> – AJAX search in the timeline header to find people</li>
<li><strong>REST API</strong> – Endpoints for timeline, connections, and auth (login/register)</li>
<li><strong>Responsive</strong> – Works on desktop and mobile</li>
<li><strong>Settings</strong> – Feedorax <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Overview lists the shortcode and quick start steps</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Shortcode:</strong></p>
<ul>
<li><code>[feedorax_timeline]</code> – Displays the social timeline with topbar, feed, and sidebar</li>
</ul>
<h3>Updating</h3>
<ul>
<li>If you installed from WordPress.org: use Plugins <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Updates or update from the Plugins screen when a new version is available.</li>
<li>If you installed manually: replace the plugin folder with the new version (or upload and overwrite). Your data (tables and user meta) is preserved. The plugin runs a short upgrade check on each load and applies any required database or option changes for the new version.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Privacy</h3>
<ul>
<li><strong>Accounts:</strong> Feedorax uses WordPress user accounts (name, email, profile data as stored in WordPress).</li>
<li><strong>Database:</strong> Custom tables store posts, comments, reactions, friend requests, notifications, chat, and related data on your server only.</li>
<li><strong>Media:</strong> Uploaded images and videos are stored in the WordPress Media Library.</li>
<li><strong>REST API:</strong> Mutating requests are protected with nonces and permission checks.</li>
<li><strong>External services:</strong> Optional GIF search, Google-hosted fonts, and location lookup features may contact third-party services as documented below.</li>
</ul>
<p>Site owners are responsible for their privacy policy and compliance with applicable laws (for example GDPR where relevant).</p>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>Feedorax can connect to third-party services for specific optional features:</p>
<h4>GIPHY API (GIF Search)</h4>
<ul>
<li><strong>What it is used for:</strong> Search and attach GIFs from the post composer.</li>
<li><strong>What data is sent and when:</strong> When a logged-in user searches GIFs, the plugin sends the search query text and your configured GIPHY API key from your server to <code>api.giphy.com</code>.</li>
<li><strong>Service provider:</strong> GIPHY, Inc.</li>
<li><strong>Terms:</strong> https://support.giphy.com/hc/en-us/articles/360020027752-GIPHY-API-Terms-of-Service</li>

<li><strong>What it is used for:</strong> Load selected font families for frontend typography settings.</li>
<li><strong>What data is sent and when:</strong> When a site owner configures Google-hosted font families, a visitor’s browser requests font CSS and files from <code>fonts.googleapis.com</code> and <code>fonts.gstatic.com</code> on pages where the Feedorax UI loads. System fonts do not make these requests.</li>

When a member chooses current location, the browser asks for geolocation permission and sends latitude and longitude to <code>nominatim.openstreetmap.org</code> after permission is granted.</li>
