Changelog

Floating button no longer sends placeholder text as the WhatsApp message when the Pre-filled Message field is left empty.

Saving settings on one tab no longer wipes category number routing data configured on another tab.

Saving settings on one tab no longer resets the floating button pre-filled message to its default value.

Payment method icons now persist correctly after saving.

Media library now opens correctly on the Payment Methods tab when Elementor is active.

Multi-channel contact buttons on product pages: add WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram DM, iMessage, RCS, and Snapchat buttons independently. Each has a custom label and pre-filled message.

Floating button multi-channel support: configure up to 3 independent floating contact buttons (any supported channel) that stack above the WhatsApp button in the screen corner.

WhatsApp Checkout master toggle: enable or disable the entire WA checkout flow with a single switch. No settings are lost, and all buttons disappear from the store while the toggle is off.

Custom checkout form fields now map directly to WooCommerce order billing data; any active WC payment gateway (Stripe, PayPal, Adyen, etc.) is automatically recognized and stored on the order.

In-panel gateway guidance: step-by-step setup instructions for Stripe, PayPal, Adyen, Worldpay, 2Checkout, and Authorize.net shown directly inside the Payment Methods tab.

Analytics dashboard adapts dynamically per active channel: per-channel metric cards, multi-channel daily click chart, and click breakdown by entry point.

WhatsApp number field is always active regardless of the WhatsApp Checkout toggle state (required for the Floating Button).

Payment Methods tab is locked with a gateway guidance notice when WhatsApp Checkout is disabled, making it clear how to configure a standard payment gateway instead.

Admin UI: WhatsApp Configuration card now appears above the checkout toggle in the General tab for a clearer setup flow.

Security: plugin update downloads are now validated against the license key registered in the plugin.

Auto-updater corrected to call the BR server endpoint. WordPress one-click updates now work correctly.

Analytics SQL queries now use $wpdb->prepare() with the %i placeholder. Full Plugin Check compliance, no security warnings.

Tested with WordPress 7.0.

Language files (.pot template + pt_BR.po/.mo) bundled in the languages/ directory, ready to use or customise with Loco Translate or Poedit.

Native WooCommerce checkout mode now works on themes with non-standard DOM structures (e.g. XStore) by reading WooCommerce session data for shipping and payment methods instead of relying on DOM inputs.

Automatic plugin updates (Veloryn website edition): ChatCart Pro now appears in the WordPress dashboard update list when a new version is available, enabling one-click updates.

"Buy via WhatsApp" button on product pages now correctly redirects to checkout after adding the product to cart.

Complete admin panel redesign with new two-column layout, green gradient header, and sidebar quick help.

Floating WhatsApp button: configurable fixed button that appears site-wide for general inquiries.

Built-in analytics dashboard (CCP Analytics): tracks every WhatsApp button click, stored locally in wp_ccp_clicks table.

Checkout field validation now shows friendly, field-specific error messages immediately on blur, works on single-step and multi-step checkout themes.

SSN validation hardened to reject invalid patterns (area code 000/666/900+, all-same-digit sequences like 111-11-1111).

Emojis in WhatsApp messages now encode correctly via encodeURIComponent with lone-surrogate safety, preventing broken characters.

Variable product add-to-cart now uses WC's get_variation endpoint to resolve the variation ID when WC's own script has not yet initialised (e.g. Quick View modals).
