Changelog

Release notes of Gift Cards Pro, newest first. Updates are delivered through the WordPress updater as long as your license is active.

Version 4.8.0 — August 28, 2026

New: AI credits replace the daily render limit. Every Gift Cards Pro license starts with a free pack of credits; each generated image costs credits depending on the image quality (Low 1, Medium 3, High 10) and failed renders are never charged. The “Generate with AI” panel shows the balance and the price of the next render, and offers “Buy credits” when the balance is too low.
New: Settings → AI Backgrounds shows the current credit balance with a direct “Buy credits” link to the store; the quality options show their credit cost.
Improvement: High image quality is now available for AI backgrounds.
Note: Credits belong to the license and never expire. Credit packs are sold on wp-giftcard.com; the store credits the license automatically after checkout.

Version 4.7.0 — August 26, 2026

New: “Generate with AI” on the Create Template page (Giftcard modern). Describe the artwork, pick a style (Photo, Illustration, Abstract) and card format, and the Codemenschen AI service renders background images you can use straight away in the template builder. Generated images are stored in the media library with the prompt attached.
New: Settings → AI Backgrounds tab to enable the feature, choose image quality and the number of images per click, and test the connection.
Note: Your active Gift Cards Pro license is the credential for the AI service — there is no API key to configure. Each site gets a number of free renders per day; the counter is shown in the panel.

Version 4.6.8 — August 22, 2026

Fix: Stripe payments no longer fail on sites where another plugin or theme loads its own copy of the Stripe PHP SDK first. The global \Stripe\* namespace can only hold one version of each class, so an older third-party copy used to leave the plugin with an incomplete Stripe runtime and every checkout stopped with “Failed to initialize Stripe runtime”. Checkout sessions, payment intents, and webhook verification now run entirely on the plugin’s own Stripe REST transport and no longer depend on the SDK being loadable.
Fix: Report the Stripe SDK conflict once per request instead of on every Stripe call, so debug.log is no longer flooded on affected sites.
Fix: Send boolean Stripe parameters as true/false and omit null parameters, instead of the 1/empty values PHP form encoding produces.

Version 4.6.7 — August 20, 2026

Improvement: Reduce plugin work on unrelated WordPress admin screens. Plugin assets now load only on Gift Cards Pro screens and real voucher-product editing screens, settings reads are served from the object cache, schema checks run from a versioned migration runner, and payment and PDF runtimes load only where they are used. Measured on the reference install: 14 fewer SQL queries on every admin screen and PDF regeneration down from 8.44s to 2.84s. Each optimization is independently reversible; add define( 'WPGV_PERF_DISABLE', 'all' ); to wp-config.php to turn them all off, or pass a comma-separated list of admin_asset_scoping, settings_object_cache, versioned_schema_migrations, lazy_runtime_loaders to disable individual ones.
Improvement: Complete the plugin translations for Czech, Danish, Dutch, French, German, Hindi, Italian, Polish, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Spanish, Swedish, and British English. Admin settings, the Email Center, and frontend voucher screens that previously fell back to English are now fully localized.

Version 4.6.6 — August 06, 2026

Fix: Improve the Standard Giftcard (Manual Order) wizard controls, validation feedback, responsive layout, and manual order completion flow.
Security: Require server-side gateway verification before a voucher is marked paid on the shared payment success page.
Security: Build voucher, receipt, and invoice PDF filenames from validated coupon codes instead of raw request values.
Security: Mask buyer email addresses on publicly reachable payment success pages.

Version 4.6.5 — July 25, 2026

Fix: Persist PayPal order IDs and capture IDs in the voucher table for standard vouchers, Giftcard Modern, and gift item purchase flows, preventing payment verification failures after PayPal redirects.

Version 4.6.4 — July 24, 2026

Feature: Add the Email Delivery Center with recipient delivery tracking, bounded automatic retries (5 minutes, 30 minutes, 2 hours), duplicate-cron protection, and capability-protected single or bulk resend. Adds the giftvouchers_email_delivery table via automatic upgrade.
Fix: Use a payment-gateway-neutral frontend error title so PayPal failures are not incorrectly labeled as Stripe checkout errors.
Improvement: Reorganize the admin Email Center with Deliveries, Activity Log, resend actions, filtering, pagination, and retry monitoring.
Security: Harden PDF template lookups by validating request IDs and using prepared database queries.
Security: Harden voucher admin output escaping for voucher data, action links, and PDF links.

Version 4.6.3 — July 11, 2026

Feature: Add gift voucher redeem support for WooCommerce Cart Block and Checkout Block.
Fix: Protect imported client vouchers from false zero-balance redeem failures during partial redemption.
Fix: Load the plugin Stripe runtime conditionally to reduce checkout conflicts with other Stripe payment plugins.
Fix: Reconcile coupon discounts and redeemed voucher totals so checkout, order, and gateway totals stay accurate while voucher redemption remains shown separately.
Improvement: Refactor the modern template admin editor toward a cleaner div-based layout foundation.

Version 4.6.2 — June 30, 2026

Feature: Add the You do not have permission to view this page. frontend shortcode for partial voucher redemption.
Security: Require voucher code, buyer or recipient email, and nonce validation before redeeming balance on the frontend.
Security: Add rate limiting for repeated failed frontend redeem attempts and keep the admin redeem endpoint unchanged.
Improvement: Refine the frontend partial-redeem UX with a narrower recipient column, clearer redeem actions, and completed-state labels for zero-balance vouchers.
Improvement: Show paid-voucher lookup results with a non-error ready notice and a smaller search CTA.
Fix: Isolate the bundled Dompdf runtime to prevent live plugin conflicts during voucher PDF generation.
fix: apply settings min/max validation to Giftcard standard list-view pricing
Fix: Show frontend partial-redeem activity notes in the voucher balance history shortcode.
Fix: Prevent duplicate shortcode submission processing within the same request.

Version 4.6.1 — June 19, 2026

Improved: admin voucher balance summary accuracy with remaining-balance tracking and manual resync support.
Security: Remove the global SVG/SVGZ upload MIME allowance so Media Library uploads are not widened system-wide.
Security: Harden admin JSON and CSV import flows with nonces, upload validation, prepared SQL, and CSV field normalization.
Security: Update Composer dependencies to resolve the reported guzzlehttp/psr7 advisories.

Version 4.6.0 — June 11, 2026

Feature: Add hide-price support for Giftcard Modern template output across shortcode, preview, PDF, and WooCommerce checkbox flows.
Fix: Hide price correctly in Giftcard standard list-view when Hide price from Items is enabled, removing the visible price field, preview price block, and related frontend validation while preserving hidden pricing data for package flows.
Fix: Treat a Giftcard Modern fixed price of 0 or empty as no fixed price so the frontend leaves the amount field empty and allows manual customer input.
Fix: Restore manual price entry for GiftCard Standard List View when the admin price is 0 or empty, and prevent NaN totals in the frontend order summary.
Feature: Add a Show Voucher Preview action for WooCommerce checkout gift checkbox items so customers can preview their voucher before payment.
Improvement: Render the WooCommerce checkout voucher preview inside a modal using the Giftcard Modern Konva template output instead of a separate detail column.
Improvement: Keep the full Konva template content visible in checkout preview while masking the coupon code as XXXXXXXXX until payment is completed.
Improvement: Ensure checkout preview waits for template assets, webfonts, and redraw completion before displaying the voucher preview modal content.

Version 4.5.9 — June 8, 2026

Feature: Add a global “Date shown on voucher” setting so admins can choose between displaying Expiry Date or Purchase Date on vouchers.
Feature: Apply the selected voucher date display mode to Giftcard Modern, GiftCard Standard Grid View, and GiftCard Standard List View previews.
Feature: Apply the selected voucher date display mode to standard voucher PDF previews, including the “Show Preview as PDF” flow for grid and list shortcode pages.
Improvement: Make the new “Purchase Date” voucher label translatable across admin, shortcode previews, and PDF output.
Improvement: Enforce a minimum voucher value of 1 in admin settings and Giftcard Modern template price configuration to keep admin setup consistent with frontend validation.
Improvement: Prevent zero-value Giftcard Modern purchases with aligned frontend and server-side validation.
Fix: Ensure Giftcard Modern admin template edits always save a fresh preview image for custom templates, including text-only and color-only changes.
Fix: Overwrite the previous custom template preview attachment on every Save Template action so admin listings and template previews no longer show stale images after edits.

Version 4.5.8 — May 28, 2026

Fix(recaptcha): Restore reliable Google reCAPTCHA verification across standard voucher, gift card template, and gift items checkout flows, preventing false validation errors, stuck loading states, and final-step widget issues while preserving stable fallback behavior when reCAPTCHA is disabled or misconfigured.
Fix: Restrict admin canvas image saving to authorized users only by requiring a dedicated AJAX nonce, upload capability checks, and strict server-side image validation before media creation.
Fix: Prevent modern template edit saves from re-uploading preview images when only text/layout data changes, reducing false save failures on Save Template.
Fix: Reduce admin modern template preview payload size by preferring Blob/multipart preview uploads, keeping base64 fallback support, and downscaling large preview exports before upload.
Fix: Reduce oversized request failures on Automatic Render Giftcard Modern Template by optimizing generated preview images and clearing unselected template payloads before form submission.
Fix: Protect manual maintenance/debug URL actions (wpgv-check-cron, wpgv-update-migration) with admin authorization and action-specific nonces to prevent public state changes and information disclosure.
Fix: Harden Stripe modal, embedded, and success-page payment completion flows so Checkout Sessions and PaymentIntents must belong to the correct voucher before the order can be marked as paid.
Fix: Replace unsafe frontend voucher lookups with prepared queries and strict integer normalization for request-driven success/cancel flows.
Fix: Enforce nonce validation on admin settings, invoice settings, and modern template create/edit submissions to close CSRF gaps.
Fix: Secure admin voucher/order detail lookups by replacing request-concatenated SQL with prepared statements and safe ID handling.

Improvement: Lock checkout interactions after Pay Now is clicked to prevent duplicate submissions while payment initialization is in progress.
Fix: Giftcard modern admin template editor no longer throws JavaScript errors when clicking the logo.
Fix: Logo resize/edit flow now ignores text-alignment handlers for non-text Konva nodes, preventing selectedTextElement.align is not a function errors.

Version 4.5.6 — April 30, 2026

Refactor: Use Dompdf as the only runtime PDF engine and remove the legacy FPDF dependency, bootstrap files, and template fallbacks.
Improvement: Keep PDF text in UTF-8 by removing FPDF-specific codepage conversion helpers from active PDF flows.
Feature: Add Polylang compatibility for translatable settings, checkout text, emails, success/cancel messages, and PDF/invoice output across voucher, item, WooCommerce, and modern gift card flows.
Improvement: Persist voucher language for delayed emails, admin resend, and PDF regeneration, with an automatic upgrade that adds the nullable language_code column to giftvouchers_list on existing installs.
Improvement: Upgrade Stripe to stripe/stripe-php v20.1.0, standardize Stripe loading through Composer vendor/ only, and remove legacy bundled Stripe libraries to avoid mixed-SDK conflicts.
Fix(woocommerce): prevent orphan gift voucher products

Version 4.5.5 — April 16, 2026

Improvement: Reduce false-positive payment status updates for PayPal purchases handled through the shared success page logic (include/voucher-shortcodes.php), affecting voucher flows that use the common success handler.
Improvement: Provide specific PayPal decline error messages instead of generic notifications in payment capture verification (include/voucher-shortcodes.php), affecting PayPal payment flows for voucher, gift card, and gift item purchases.
Fix: Correct Stripe webhook exception namespace and add Bedrock layout support for WordPress bootstrap (include/stripewebhook.php), ensuring proper webhook signature verification and compatibility with alternative WordPress directory structures.

– Konva canvas now updates correctly when form fields are auto-filled by browser (previously only manual typing triggered updates)
Improvement: Add multi-event listeners (input, change, keyup, blur, animationstart, focusout) to form fields for comprehensive value change detection
Improvement: Optimize PDF preview button to display preview in browser window instead of initiating file download
Improvement: Add CSS animation detection (@keyframes autofill-animation) to properly trigger canvas updates on browser autofill events

Version 4.5.2 — March 12, 2026

Feature: added per-product expiry settings for WooCommerce gift voucher products.
Feature: restrict gift voucher product images to PNG/JPG formats only, with admin notices and media-library filtering to prevent WebP or unsupported files.
Improvement: show gift checkbox meta fields in order details (your/recipient name, emails, prices, voucher code/ID).
Improvement: order item meta labels now use human-readable text instead of raw _wpgv_ keys.
Improvement: refined hidden meta list so only internal keys are suppressed; visible information remains.

Version 4.5.1 — February 24, 2026

Feature: introduce new WooCommerce display toggle for gift voucher redemption form. Admins can now enable or disable the Cart/Checkout input without affecting redeem logic; defaults to disabled for new installs.
Improvement: added corresponding setting field under Settings → Woo Settings and updated templates to respect the new option.
Fix: correct Stripe webhook handler to locate wp-load.php in non‑standard/multi‑domain environments and prevent HTTP 500 errors. Added recursive search and document-root fallback.

Version 4.5.0 — February 13, 2026

Fix (perf): resolve critical page-load regression by removing expensive recursive filesystem scans from template helpers and adding request-lifetime caching
Fix (migration): move one‑time template/postmeta migration out of hot-paths into a background WP-Cron task and add a transient-based lock to ensure it runs only once
Improvement: replace direct file_get_contents() calls with wp_remote_get() + transient caching for remote template JSON (timeout and 24h cache)
Feature: add admin setting Add Gift Card price to cart total (Woo Settings) — controls whether gift card value is added to the cart total; default = Enabled
Fix/UI: product page and cart display updated so Total reflects the new setting and clearly indicates when gift card value is NOT added to total
Improvement: add wpgv_get_upload_paths() static cache helper and reduce repeated DB/options queries with wpgv_get_settings() usage
Misc: JS localization updated to expose add_price_to_cart; front-end price-calculation logic updated for variations and template pricing

Version 4.4.9 — February 10, 2026

Feature: Add visual template selector for the Giftcard Modern template on product pages.
Fix: Prevent deprecated dynamic property creation by declaring the $beta property in the updater class (file: classes/EDD_SL_Plugin_Updater.php).
Fix: Avoid passing NULL to add_submenu_page() parent slug (use empty string) to prevent deprecated strpos() calls in WordPress core (file: admin.php).
Fix: Reduce duplicate database queries for plugin settings by adding a cached helper wpgv_get_settings() and using it from wpgv_is_woocommerce_enable() and admin notices (file: gift-voucher-pro.php).
Fix: Store expiry indicator as a non-localized string ‘No Expiry’ in stored data to avoid saving localized text to the database.

Version 4.4.8 — December 09, 2025

Fix: Persist PayPal order IDs created during checkout to voucher post meta so capture works when PHP session cookie is unavailable (meta key wpgv_paypal_order_id, legacy paypal_order_id) (files: include/wpgv_giftcard_pdf.php, include/wpgv_voucher_pdf.php, include/wpgv_item_pdf.php).
Fix: Add safe session handling and a session→postmeta fallback on the PayPal success/capture flow to avoid PHP notices and missing-order-id failures (file: include/voucher-shortcodes.php).
Fix: Wrap PayPal capture calls in try/catch and log errors instead of printing exceptions to prevent customer-facing “critical error” pages and record failures in the PHP error log (files: include/voucher-shortcodes.php, include/wpgv_giftcard_pdf.php).

Version 4.4.7 — December 04, 2025

Fix: Harden voucher metabox rendering to avoid PHP notices when fields or attachments are missing (include/voucher_metabox.php).
Fix: Cast plugin file parameter to string in updater to avoid passing null to WP core functions and related deprecation notices (classes/WPGV_Plugin_Updater.php).
Fix: Show invoice PDF link/icon in Purchase History when invoice generation is active and the invoice file exists (admin voucher column).
Fix: Prevent mojibake in voucher/receipt/invoice PDFs by detecting source encoding and safely converting text for FPDF output (wpgv_em / wpgv_em_cs_CZ).

Version 4.4.6 — December 03, 2025

Feature: Integrate Klarna Payments v1 as a new payment method.
Improvement: Centralize post-payment processing and ensure server-side webhook/push handling.
Improvement: Add per-gateway configurable Success Pages (Stripe, PayPal, Klarna, MultiSafepay, Per Invoice, Mollie).
Fix: Persist gateway session/order IDs (e.g. Stripe session) for reliable webhook mapping.
Fix: Handle Gift Voucher products added from shop/archive page without filling voucher form — now uses WooCommerce order billing data as fallback.
Fix: Invoice PDF now correctly displays the euro (€) symbol and other special currency characters. All price outputs in invoice templates are encoded to CP1252 to prevent mojibake (e.g. â‚¬).
Fix: Do not attach receipt/invoice PDFs to recipient emails — voucher recipient now only receives the main voucher PDF (e.g. voucherXXX.pdf). Buyer and admin continue to receive -receipt.pdf and -invoice.pdf attachments. (file: include/voucher-shortcodes.php)

Version 4.4.5 — November 27, 2025

Fix: Prevent PHP fatal error in include/redeem-voucher.php when WooCommerce invokes the woocommerce_payment_complete_order_status filter without a valid WC_Order object (for example: Email Preview). The filter now safely accepts either an order object or an order ID and falls back to the original status if no valid order is available.
Fix: Create vouchers per order line item (qty = 2 now creates 2 records in giftvouchers_list).
Fix: Count vouchers by order-item meta (prevents mixing codes between different line items).
Fix: Correct inverted status logic (deactivate() => ‘used’, reactivate() => ‘unused’).
Fix: Improve voucher insertion flow and add debug logs for easier diagnosis.

) — when user changes the Send Type, the scheduled date row now correctly toggles: selecting send_future_date shows .voucherSendDatePikerRow; other values hide it and clear any date validation errors.
Fix: Admin — Template image upload is now restricted to JPG and PNG. The metabox upload UI validates the selected attachment’s MIME type and shows a warning if a different format (WebP, SVG, etc.) is picked.
Improvement: Added clearer “Recommended” guidance for template images (now shows recommended size and allowed formats) and small JS robustness updates in assets/js/voucher-template-script.js and include/voucher_metabox.php.

Version 4.4.3 — November 13, 2025

Fix: Customer receipt PDF now shows the actual payment status (no longer hardcoded “Paid”).
Fix: Automatically regenerate the customer receipt PDF when a payment is confirmed (Mollie / PayPal / Stripe / generic success handlers) so the attached/downloaded receipt reflects the real payment status.
Fix: Regenerate the customer receipt PDF when an administrator marks a voucher as Paid from the Purchase History.
Refactor: Moved receipt generation helper into a dedicated include file include/receipt-functions.php and require it from the main plugin bootstrap (gift-voucher-pro.php) for better separation of concerns and reusability.
Improvement: Receipt template now uses voucher data from the giftvouchers_list table (amount, coupon code, recipient, expiry, payment method/status) to produce consistent output.
Note: Make sure wp-content/uploads/voucherpdfuploads/ is writable by PHP so receipt files can be created/overwritten. If PDF generation fails, check server permissions and PHP error logs.

Version 4.4.2 — November 13, 2025

Fix: Prevent JavaScript TypeError “voucher_shipping_address.val is not a function” by initializing the missing jQuery selector in assets/js/voucher-template-script.js. The shipping address field is now properly selected so validation and overview steps no longer throw errors when using postal shipping.

Version 4.4.1 — November 11, 2025

Update: Updated the json_template and get_json_db functions in voucher_metabox.php to improve loading and saving of voucher templates in JSON format.
Fix: Prevent a fatal activation error when another plugin has already loaded Stripe. Updated the logic in stripe-force-loader.php to detect and handle a preloaded Stripe instance and avoid reloading the library (prevents conflicts).
Fix: Avoid PHP notice “iconv(): Detected an illegal character in input string” by making encoding conversions in gift-voucher-pro.php (functions wpgv_em / wpgv_em_cs_CZ) more robust — inputs are sanitized and iconv() called with //IGNORE to skip invalid bytes.
Fix: Prevent PHP notices “Trying to get property ‘invoice_color’ of non-object” and “Trying to get property ‘is_invoice_active’ of non-object” by validating option objects before property access in include/wpgv_voucher_pdf.php, include/wpgv_item_pdf.php and front.php.
Fix: Ensure in-memory voucher object is updated immediately after marking a voucher as Paid so email placeholders (e.g. {payment_status}) use the new status; applied to Mollie, generic voucher and Stripe success handlers (include/voucher-shortcodes.php).

Version 4.4.0 — October 09, 2025

Feature: Add Quotes suggestions for Personal Message (frontend & backend).
Fix: Isolate FPDF to prevent font/path conflicts with other plugins.

Version 4.3.9 — July 31, 2025

Fix: Resolved a display issue with the date picker field on the user interface.

Version 4.3.8 — July 30, 2025

Fix: Resolved an issue that prevented voucher codes from being generated when customers purchased gift cards using the Standard List View.
