Waitlist – Back in Stock for WooCommerce

1.0.30

• Fixed: the “Leave waitlist” button in My Account did nothing. Its script was never loaded on that tab, and the request it would have sent was refused because the handler read the security token from a field the script does not send.
• Fixed: on variable products in a store not running in English, the form never appeared for an out-of-stock variation, because the check looked for the English words “out of stock”. A variation on backorder never showed the form in any language. The plugin now tells the page which variations take signups, using the same rule as the signup itself.
• Fixed: the [restock_waitlist] shortcode and the Elementor widget, placed anywhere except a product page, printed a form without its script. Submitting it reloaded the page, signed nobody up and put the email address in the URL.

1.0.29

• The sidebar upgrade promo now follows the same dismissal as the banner. Dismissing the banner used to leave a full-height advert on the settings screen for good, which is not what the WordPress.org guideline on upgrade prompts means by used with moderation.

1.0.28

• Fixed: the plugin logged Warning: Class "Waitlist\Plugin" not found on every request on any site with WP_DEBUG on. A compatibility alias kept for Plogins Waitlist PRO 1.0.2 and older was declared before the plugin’s autoloader was registered, so PHP could not find the class it was aliasing. The alias now sits below the autoloader, which also means it is finally declared: for the whole time it was above, it failed and gave those old PRO versions nothing.
• Copy: the “How are notifications sent?” answer still described the email leaving the moment WooCommerce sets the stock status. It has been queued and sent in batches on WP-Cron since 1.0.25, which is what the rest of the readme says; the answer now says it too.

1.0.27

• Fixed: deactivating the plugin could throw a fatal error, and leave it impossible to switch off, on a site also running Plogins Waitlist PRO 1.0.12 or older. The deactivation routine read the name of its scheduled job off a class those PRO versions also supply, in a copy that does not carry that name. The name is now written out in full and the routine loads nothing.
• Fixed: deleting the plugin without deactivating it first left its queued mailing scheduled. wp plugin delete removes an active plugin without deactivating it, so uninstall now unschedules the job in the same way deactivation does.
• Added: plogins_waitlist_should_notify, a filter deciding whether a restock mails the people waiting for that product. Returning false skips the mailing and leaves those subscribers pending. Plogins Waitlist PRO applies its category segmentation through it instead of taking the mailing over.
• Note: if you run Plogins Waitlist PRO, update it to 1.0.14 or later at the same time. Older PRO versions remove this plugin’s mailing callback on every restock and send the emails themselves, one at a time, inside the request that changed the stock. PRO 1.0.14 hands that work back to the queue here, and requires this version.

1.0.26

• Fixed: the CSV export could leave subscribers out of the file without saying so. It read the list in chunks by offset, over the same rows a queued restock mailing marks as notified while it runs, so every row that left the set took another row with it. The export now walks by a cursor on a stable key, which cannot skip or repeat. Rows come out oldest first; the list on screen is unchanged.
• Fixed: a queued batch that could not run ended the mailing for good. If the product could not be loaded on that cron tick, or the waitlist had just been switched off, the front of the list was mailed and the rest was left neither mailed nor cleared. The same batch is now retried up to three times, five minutes apart, before the mailing is abandoned.
• Fixed: queued mailings survived deactivating the plugin. They are now unscheduled with the plugin, whichever batch they were up to.
• Fixed: “Remove” on the subscriber list threw you back to page one of an unfiltered list. It now returns to the page, product filter and search you removed from.
• Fixed: a personal-data export request (Tools > Export Personal Data) hit a fatal error on the “Subscribed At” row, which tried to print a date object as a string. Static analysis had been reporting it; the analysis now runs over the shared engine directory too, which had been outside both it and the coding-standards check.
• Changed: a pending-subscriber query that names no limit of its own now reads at most 5000 rows (filter plogins_waitlist_pending_query_limit), and the waitlist list on a customer’s account page at most 200. Neither had a ceiling before.

1.0.25

• Fixed: restocking a product no longer sends the waitlist emails inside the request that changed the stock. A product save, a REST update or an order going through used to wait for one email per waiting shopper. The mailing is now queued and sent in batches of 50 (filter plogins_waitlist_notify_batch_size), in the same order, to the same people.
• Fixed: the Subscribers screen read the whole table on every load. It is now paged at 50 rows (filter plogins_waitlist_subscribers_per_page), the summary counts come from the database so they describe the whole list, and the CSV export streams in chunks instead of loading every row first.
