View the full changelog. Older versions are also in changelog.txt.
Version 8.7.1 - 23rd October 2026
- Fix: Security > Refreshing dashboard statistics no longer accepts totals sent by the browser, so affiliates cannot change their own all-time stats.
- Fix: Security > Users given "Admin Permissions" (e.g. Shop Manager) can no longer edit or delete administrators.
- Fix: (PRO) Security > "Add New Affiliate" now only accepts affiliate group roles, so it cannot create admin-level accounts.
- Fix: Registration > The AJAX registration form now follows the "enable registration" settings and checks required fields.
- Fix: Referrals > Bulk "Trash" now works with HPOS and only trashes orders.
- Fix: URL Clicks > Removing an IP from the blacklist no longer edits other IPs that contain it.
- Fix: (PRO) Floating Widget > QR codes now load from the plugin, instead of a CDN library that did not work with the widget.
- Fix: Removed a stray hidden character printed on the admin "View Affiliate" page.
- Tweak: Security hardening: nonce check on the "update notice" dismissal, escaped order statuses in SQL, and removed unused order meta code.
- Tweak: The admin Reports PDF libraries and the coupon screen's jQuery UI styles now load locally instead of from CDNs.
- Tweak: "Requires at least" raised to WordPress 5.3, which the plugin already needed.
Version 8.7.0 - 23rd October 2026
- New: Migration Tool (Beta) > A new "Migration" page (under "Admin Tools") moves your program over from AffiliateWP, Affiliate For WooCommerce, SliceWP, YITH WooCommerce Affiliates, Solid Affiliate, Ultimate Affiliate Pro, Affiliates (itthinx), AffiliatePress or Affiliates Manager. Imports affiliates, coupons, applications, referral history, visits and settings, and keeps old referral links working. (PRO) Also imports balances, payouts, custom rates, groups and creatives. Includes a preview, never changes the old plugin's data, can be fully undone, and is available through WP-CLI ("wp wcusage-migrate").
- New: Affiliate Portal > New "Portal Theme" setting with four new themes alongside "Classic": "Sleek", "Modern", "Canvas" and "Spotlight". Each restyles the whole portal (including dark mode and mobile) and adds status badges, a Payouts balance card and a Referral URL share card with QR code.
- New: Settings > A "Live Preview" button on the "General" tab previews the affiliate dashboard or portal with example data, updating as you change settings, with desktop/mobile and light/dark views.
- New: Setup Wizard > Now starts by asking what kind of program you are setting up: "Advanced" (the full wizard), "Essentials" (a quicker setup for small programs) or "I'll set it up myself". Essentials asks only for commission rate, customer discount and public sign-ups, creates the dashboard page and template coupon, then helps you add your first affiliate.
- New: Settings > An "Essentials / All settings" switch at the top of the settings tabs. Essentials shows only the main tabs, with a link to show the rest. The choice is remembered for each admin.
- New: A "Getting started" checklist on the Coupon Affiliates dashboard, shown until your first affiliate is added.
- New: Add New Affiliate > A "Create Template Coupon For Me" button creates and selects a template coupon (10% off) when none is set or the set one does not exist.
- Tweak: Settings > Redesigned settings page: tabs split into cards with icon headings, a new left menu card with tab icons, one green accent colour, tidier fields and buttons, clearer text sizes, unit labels in number fields, compact colour pickers everywhere, and a tidier dashboard tabs list. The setup wizard is redesigned to match.
- Tweak: Settings > Portal colour and font settings are now under "General > Customise Affiliate Portal Design", beside the live preview. When the portal is disabled, the "Design" tab shows the dashboard colour settings instead.
- Tweak: Setup Wizard > The "Commission" step now suggests 10% instead of 0% the first time it is shown.
- Tweak: AI & MCP > WPVibe is now suggested as a connector plugin for claude.ai, ChatGPT and other web connectors, and its ability calls show as "MCP" in recent activity.
- Tweak: (PRO) Payouts > The "Delay Commission (Number of Days)" description now correctly says days are counted from when the order is completed.
- Tweak: (PRO) The order screen's commission breakdown now shows an "Adjustments" row when needed, so the rows add up to the total.
- Tweak: Affiliate Portal > Referral URL > The "Select a Campaign" section now lines up with "Page URL".
- Fix: (PRO) Multi-Level Affiliates > "Remove MLA commission from sub-affiliate's commission" has had no effect since 6.0.0. It now works for orders placed after updating.
- Fix: (PRO) Multi-Level Affiliates > Parents are now paid MLA commission when "Delay Commission" is set, are never paid twice for an order or after their account is deleted, and lose exactly what they were paid when commission is taken back (including partial refunds and "Deduct"). The "(MLA) New Sub-Affiliate Referral" email is no longer sent for pending orders or when commission is taken back.
- Fix: (PRO) Multi-Level Affiliates > MLA earnings totals on the dashboard, admin MLA pages and order screen now show the commission actually paid, instead of often-wrong estimates at current rates.
- Fix: (PRO) Multi-Level Affiliates > On PHP 8, filtering the MLA dashboard's "Orders" tab by date could hide its Commission column.
- Fix: (PRO) Payouts > A saved pending commission of 0 on an order was recalculated, which could wrongly change the coupon's pending commission.
- Fix: (PRO) Payouts > "Create Payout Request" did nothing on the admin "Create Payouts" page for affiliates whose payout method has no details field.
- Fix: (PRO) Payouts > The "Payment Threshold" was not checked when a payout request was sent through the REST API or posted to the dashboard directly.
- Fix: (PRO) Admin header menu > "Manage Creatives", "View Short URLs" and "PDF Invoices" now open the correct pages, and "PDF Invoices" follows the "Payout Statements" setting.
- Fix: (PRO) Lifetime Commission > Fixed an "Undefined variable $coupon_code" PHP warning when a lifetime affiliate's order was refunded, cancelled or changed status.
- Fix: Settings > The affiliate portal "Primary Font" was not saved.
- Fix: The "subscription renewals" commission toggle could be switched off in the free version but never saved. It is now shown as a PRO option.
- Fix: Affiliate Portal > With exactly three coupons the portal footer was pushed out of place, and on mobile the "Recent Clicks" labels showed against the wrong values.
- Fix: (PRO) Monthly Summary > Mobile labels no longer shift when a column is hidden, "Quantity" now reads "Orders", and empty product rows are hidden.
- Fix: Fixed a "Translation loading ... triggered too early" notice on referral link visits, and a "strtotime(): Passing null" notice (PHP 8.1+) and "Nov 30th, -0001" tooltip on the admin "Registrations" list.
- Fix: Setup Wizard > Two "Create Your First Affiliate" buttons on the last step did not show as buttons.
- Dev: (PRO) Multi-Level Affiliates > MLA commission paid to each parent is now saved in a "wcu_mla_granted" order meta, and "wcusage_mla_ledger_since" records when 8.7.0 was first run. New functions "wcusage_mla_calculate_order_breakdown()", "wcusage_mla_calculate_tier_commission()" and "wcusage_mla_get_parent_earnings()", and new "wcusage_mla_parent_earnings" and "wcusage_mla_remove_parent_commission_applies" filters.
- Dev: New "wcusage_portal_theme" and "wcusage_essential_settings_tabs" filters, and a "wcusage_setup_mode" option ("quick", "full" or "manual").
- Dev: The "wcusage_calculate_edit_commission" filter now passes the figure being filtered and the order totals. New "wcusage_filter_zero_order_commission" filter to apply it to orders with no commission.
- Dev: (PRO) New "wcusage_hook_after_adjust_commission" action for partial refunds and "Deduct". "wcusage_hook_after_update_commission" now also fires when delayed commission is added.
- Other: Updated the Freemius SDK.
