## Beschreibung

**WAPP Author Hub** enhances your WordPress site with a complete author-centric 
feature set:

 * **E-E-A-T Author Box** — Schema.org structured data (Person) on every post, improving
   search visibility.
 * **Custom Author Page** — Replaces the default WordPress author archive with a
   rich profile page showing avatar, bio, social links, stats and recent posts.
 * **Subscriber System** — Logged-in readers can subscribe to authors and receive
   email notifications about new posts.
 * **Notification Bell** — Front-end bell widget shows unread notifications for 
   subscribed authors.
 * **Email Digests** — Automated or manually triggered digest emails sent to author
   subscribers; configurable frequency (daily / weekly / monthly).
 * **Author RSS Feed** — Per-author RSS feed link.
 * **Login / Logout Button** — Automatic SVG icon button added to the primary navigation
   menu.

#### Privacy

This plugin stores subscriber email addresses and user IDs in custom database tables
on your own site. See „External Services“ below for the one third-party service 
this plugin relies on.

### External Services

This plugin relies on one external service to display author profile pictures.

**Gravatar (by Automattic)**

This plugin uses WordPress’s built-in `get_avatar()` function to display author 
profile pictures on the author box and the author page. WordPress core, by default,
retrieves these images from Gravatar.com — this is standard WordPress behavior used
by every theme and plugin that displays user avatars, not something this plugin 
adds independently.

 * What it is and what it’s used for: Gravatar („Globally Recognized Avatar“) is
   a service that serves a profile picture associated with a person’s email address.
   It is used to display the post author’s avatar in the author box and on the custom
   author page.
 * What data is sent and when: Whenever an author box or author page is viewed, 
   a cryptographic hash (MD5) of the relevant WordPress user’s email address is 
   sent to Gravatar’s servers to retrieve the matching image. No plain-text email
   address is transmitted — only the one-way hash. This request happens automatically
   on every page load that displays an author’s avatar, for any visitor viewing 
   that page (the visitor’s own data is not sent — only the displayed author’s email
   hash).
 * Terms of Service: https://gravatar.com/site/terms-of-service
 * Privacy Policy: https://automattic.com/privacy/

## Installation

 1. Upload the `wapp-author-hub` folder to `/wp-content/plugins/`.
 2. Activate the plugin through the **Plugins** menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **WAPP Author Hub** in the admin menu to configure digests and settings.

## FAQ

### Does the author page replace the default WordPress author archive?

Yes. When the plugin is active, visiting an author URL uses the plugin’s custom 
template instead of the theme’s `author.php`.

### How do I disable the notification bell?

Go to **WAPP Author Hub  Settings** and uncheck „Enable notification bell“.

### Where is subscriber data stored?

Subscriber records are stored in two custom tables on your own database: `{prefix}
wappauhu_subscribers` and `{prefix}wappauhu_notifications`. This data is not transmitted
to any external service.
