Mikesoft TeamVault

Private team document storage for WordPress with controlled access, previews, ZIP export, and drag-and-drop uploads.

Kitgenix

<p>Kitgenix Document Manager lets admins upload documents and share a stable link like:</p>
<p>/kitgenix-document-manager/{slug}/</p>
<p>When you replace the file, the link stays the same and serves the new version.</p>
<h3>Key Features</h3>
<ul>
<li>Stable links: replace the file without changing the URL</li>
<li>Admin documents table with search, copy link, and “Open link” action</li>
<li>Quick edit modal (popup) for editing documents without leaving the table</li>
<li>Document Categories: create categories and assign documents for easier organization</li>
<li>Visibility controls: Public or Private documents</li>
<li>Private behavior: redirect to login or return 403</li>
<li>Serving mode: Inline (browser) or Download (attachment)</li>
<li>Optional version history per document, including restore/delete for older versions</li>
<li>Bulk version cleanup: delete all old versions for a document (Versions tab + modal action)</li>
<li>Select from Media Library: optionally pick an existing Media Library file instead of uploading</li>
<li>Safer serving: correct Content-Type where possible, security headers, and conditional caching for public docs</li>
</ul>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<ol>
<li>Go to <strong>Kitgenix <span aria-hidden="true" class="wp-exclude-emoji">→</span> Document Manager</strong></li>
<li>Add a document (name + optional slug) and upload the initial file</li>
<li>Copy the stable URL from the table and share it</li>
<li>To update a document later, use <strong>Edit</strong> (modal) and upload a replacement file</li>
<li>If <strong>Keep version history</strong> is enabled for that document, older files will appear in the Versions panel (restore/delete)</li>
</ol>
<p>Categories:</p>
<ul>
<li>Use the <strong>Categories</strong> tab to add/edit/delete categories</li>
<li>Assign a category when adding/editing a document</li>
</ul>
<p>Note: Inline viewing works best for PDFs and images. Office documents (DOCX/XLSX/etc.) typically download because browsers can’t render them natively.</p>
<h3>Settings</h3>
<p>Settings are available under the <strong>Settings</strong> tab:</p>
<ul>
<li>Allowed file extensions</li>
<li>Default visibility (Public/Private)</li>
<li>Serving mode:
<ul>
<li>Inline (browser)</li>
<li>Download (attachment)</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Versioning defaults (keep history by default, delete old versions when history is disabled)</li>
<li>Private document behavior (login redirect or 403)</li>
<li>Delete all plugin data on uninstall (optional)</li>
</ul>
<p>Frontend card options are available under the <strong>Frontend</strong> tab:</p>
<ul>
<li>Default document card button label</li>
<li>Button style (Outline or Solid)</li>
<li>Preview image size</li>
<li>File type/file size alignment</li>
<li>Button alignment</li>
<li>Button colors (normal + hover)</li>
<li>Option to open the “View” button in a new tab</li>
<li>Toggle showing file type and file size</li>
<li>Toggle showing document description</li>
<li>Shortcode Builder (generate a shortcode for one or multiple documents)</li>
</ul>
<h3>Security & Caching</h3>
<ul>
<li>Private documents are not cached (no-store) and require login (or return 403)</li>
<li>Public documents use conditional caching (ETag/Last-Modified) so browsers/CDNs can revalidate efficiently (including 304 Not Modified responses)</li>
<li>Responses include security hardening headers like <code>X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff</code></li>
<li>Private documents include <code>X-Robots-Tag: noindex, nofollow</code></li>
</ul>
<h3>External Services</h3>
<p>This plugin includes a shared “Kitgenix hub” component in wp-admin which may fetch publicly available plugin metadata from WordPress.org using the WordPress core <code>plugins_api()</code> function (WordPress.org Plugins API).</p>
<ul>
<li>When it runs: only in wp-admin (Kitgenix plugin admin pages)</li>
<li>Data sent: plugin slug(s) (no personal data)</li>
<li>Data received: publicly available plugin information (e.g. active installs, ratings)</li>
<li>Caching: responses are cached locally using transients for ~1 day:
<ul>
<li><code>kitgenix_hub_wporg_active_installs_v1</code></li>
<li><code>kitgenix_hub_wporg_ratings_v1</code><br />
