User Experience & Admin Ergonomics
- Shortcode Quick-Copy: Added a dedicated "Usage" section in the settings page featuring a one-click copy button for the
[connectsphere_room] shortcode.
- Copy Feedback: Integrated a visual "Copied!" confirmation using WordPress native Dashicons for a better user experience.
Internal Logic & i18n
- JS Dependency Update: Added
sprintf to the wp-i18n imports in connectsphere.js to support complex dynamic translations.
1.4.0 (2026-04-24)
Internationalization (i18n) & Localization
- Full Multilingual Support: Added
Domain Path for native translation.
- wp-i18n Integration: Scripts now explicitly depend on
wp-i18n for secure string translation.
- String Standardization: All UI messages harmonized to English for global compatibility.
Improved Resilience & Performance
- Aggressive Reconnection Logic: Reduced reconnection timeouts from 15 seconds to 4 seconds for both
videoroom and textroom plugins. This ensures much faster recovery after network drops.

1.3.1 (2026-04-24)
Sécurité & Stabilité
- Renforcement de la sécurité (Nonce) : Correction de la faille de vérification des jetons de sécurité dans l'administration. Désormais, les réglages sont protégés par
check_admin_referer pour prévenir les attaques CSRF.
- Optimisation du chargement des scripts : Les fichiers JS (Janus, adapter.js) et CSS ne sont plus chargés sur tout le site. Ils sont désormais injectés uniquement sur les pages utilisant le shortcode
[connectsphere_room], améliorant drastiquement les performances du site.
Interface & Responsive
- Full Responsive Design : Refonte complète du CSS pour mobile et tablette. La grille vidéo et la barre de contrôle s'adaptent désormais parfaitement aux petits écrans.
- Z-Index Fix : Ajustement de la profondeur de l'interface pour garantir la visibilité des menus de navigation WordPress au-dessus du salon vidéo.

- New Activity Log Ticker: Replaced intrusive "Toast" notifications with a sleek, terminal-style status bar in the control panel.
- Cyber-Terminal Aesthetics: Implemented scrolling marquee effects for system messages to prevent blocking the video grid.
- CSS Refactoring: Completely reorganized the stylesheet. Cleaned up legacy notification styles and unminified key components for better maintainability.
- Layout Stabilization: Fixed the 100vw horizontal overflow bug and optimized control bar responsiveness using modern Flexbox.
- Cleanup: Removed unused DOM manipulation logic from the JS core to improve performance.
1.2.0
Enhanced screen-sharing support with explicit media direction
- Replaced generic
media: { audio: true, video: true } with precise recvonly settings.

audioRecv: true and videoRecv: true while disabling local capture.
