Changelog
2.0.0
- SECURITY (breaking): the “business” attribute now takes a per-business activation token (a GUID) instead of the numeric business id. The server resolves the business by this unguessable token, so bots can no longer harvest leads by POSTing incremental business ids. Activate the lead plugin from Settings | Leads to get your token, then update your shortcode.
1.3.2
- Allow the form’s Address field to use the browser location (allow=”geolocation” on the iframe).
- Add a getcost_embed_base filter so the embed URL can be overridden for local/staging installs.
- Make the shortcode’s messages translatable (text domain “getcost”).
- Rename the “form” attribute to “template” (the embed targets a template); “form” still works as a backward-compatible alias.
1.3.1
- Fix the embedded form height: the size is now applied to the iframe itself (previously only the wrapper was sized, so the form was stuck at the 150px iframe default).
- Make the embed responsive (max-width:100%) so it no longer overflows on small screens.
- Harden the shortcode: form/business are cast with absint(), the URL is escaped with esc_url(), and width/height are validated as CSS lengths.
