Indie Music Bus Artist Support for Bandcamp

Indie Music Bus Artist Support for Bandcamp provides a native WordPress editor for curated collections of direct Bandcamp track and album links. This is independent software. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Bandcamp. Bandcamp names and services remain the property of their respective owners. Collections are server rendered and theme aware. A native block lets editors place one published collection inside a normal post or page. Editors add normal Bandcamp track or album URLs. On an authorized editor save, the plugin can resolve the official player from the public Bandcamp release page. Official Share/Embed code remains a manual fallback. Direct release links remain available without JavaScript. The plugin does not add analytics or autoplay media. Optional personal item ratings use a whole-number 1 to 10 scale and default to private. Private ratings remain protected local metadata. Only ratings explicitly made public are shown or included in portable version 1 JSON, which supports review and sharing between compatible installations. New exports include an unsigned export marker. Imported identity, attribution, license, and permission claims remain unverified.

0.14.0

• Lets editors collapse items independently, remembers each editor's view after Update, keeps new items open, and reopens fields that need correction.
• Shows the artist and release in each item heading while keeping every field available for saving.
• Registers the collection type before storage migration so the first collection-admin request after an update cannot fail with an invalid post type.

• Adopts the collision-safe indimubu prefix for plugin declarations and stored identifiers.
• Migrates retained collection posts, metadata, revisions, capabilities, and the storage ledger without changing public URLs or portable JSON.
