Änderungsprotokoll

2.1 (Released: May 22, 2026)

Bug Fixed: Settings could not be saved due to a redundant nonce check conflicting with the Settings API
Bug Fixed: The „Add Sharing Links“ post type checkboxes could not be unchecked or changed
Bug Fixed: Icon reorder via drag-and-drop was not secured — it now checks user permissions and a security token before saving
Bug Fixed: Icon reorder saved user input without validation — it is now sanitized and checked against the list of valid social networks before saving
Bug Fixed: Social share links on the front end and in the shortcode were not using the correct URL escaping — all share URLs are now properly escaped
Bug Fixed: Button text displayed on the front end used attribute escaping instead of text escaping — fixed so special characters display correctly
Bug Fixed: Several checkbox labels on the settings page were output twice due to a double-output escaping bug — each label now displays once
Bug Fixed: Several text strings on the settings page were not translatable — they can now be translated
Bug Fixed: Default option values for button labels were double-escaped — they now store plain text and escape only at output
Improved: Admin and frontend scripts now load in the page footer for better page performance
Improved: Code cleaned up to meet the latest WordPress coding standards and pass the official Plugin Check tool
