## Descripción

**Tidy Author Box** is the easiest way to add a professional author box to your 
WordPress posts. Display an author bio, custom avatar, and social media links — 
with a dedicated Gutenberg block and shortcode. No coding required.

Whether you run a single-author blog or a multi-author publication, Tidy Author 
Box gives each writer a polished author profile that builds credibility and encourages
readers to explore more content.

#### Key Features

 * **Custom avatar upload** — not limited to Gravatar
 * **Author bio** — synced with the WordPress profile
 * **5 social networks** — Website, X, Instagram, LinkedIn, Facebook (15 more with
   Pro)
 * **Job title / role** — display a title under the author name
 * **Gutenberg block** — insert an author box anywhere in the editor
 * **Shortcode** — `[tidy_author_box]` or `[tidy_author_box user_id="123"]`
 * **2 display styles** — Default and Card
 * **Position control** — before content, after content, or both
 * **Post type selection** — choose which content types show the box
 * **Schema.org structured data** for SEO
 * **Responsive design** — looks great on all devices
 * **Co-authors** — assign multiple authors to a single post
 * **Import tool** — migrate from other author box plugins

#### Pro Features

 * 15 additional social networks (YouTube, Bluesky, Pinterest, TikTok, Threads, 
   Discord, Twitch, and more)
 * 3 additional styles: Minimal, Banner, and Custom (with live builder)
 * Custom style & colors builder
 * Guest authors (no WordPress account needed)
 * Author box on archive pages
 * Sidebar widget
 * Export / Import JSON
 * Priority support

### External services

This plugin connects to Gravatar to display user avatars as a fallback when no custom
avatar has been uploaded.

 * What the service is and what it is used for: Gravatar is a globally recognized
   avatar service operated by Automattic. The plugin uses WordPress core’s `get_avatar()`/`
   get_avatar_url()` to render an avatar image for an author when the user has not
   uploaded a custom avatar via this plugin.
 * What data is sent and when: a SHA-256 hash of the user’s email address is sent
   to gravatar.com each time an author avatar needs to be rendered (front-end author
   box, admin user list, onboarding screen). No raw email, name, or IP address is
   transmitted by the plugin itself; the request is performed by the visitor’s browser
   when the avatar URL is loaded.
 * Service provider: Automattic Inc.
 * Terms of service: https://wordpress.com/tos/
 * Privacy policy: https://automattic.com/privacy/

## Registro de cambios

#### 1.4.3

 * WordPress.org coding-standards hardening: output escaping and translators comments
   for i18n placeholders (Plugin Check compliance).

#### 1.4.2

 * Escape SVG icon output on the author box edit screen with `wp_kses()` and an 
   explicit SVG allowlist.
 * Rename generic menu slugs to `tidy-author-boxes` and `tidy-my-author-box` to 
   avoid conflicts with other plugins.
 * Rename the shortcode to `[tidy_author_box]` (replaces the previous generic `[
   author_box]` tag).

#### 1.4.1

 * Sanitize nonces with `sanitize_text_field( wp_unslash() )` before passing them
   to `wp_verify_nonce()`.
 * Cast integer values explicitly before output in the import admin view.
 * Document Gravatar usage under the new «External services» section of the readme.
 * Remove the `load_plugin_textdomain()` call now that translations are auto-loaded
   by WordPress.org.

#### 1.4.0

 * Removed all rendering code for premium-only features (Minimal and Banner styles,
   custom theme builder, author archive injection). The free plugin now only ships
   the Default and Card styles, with no hidden capabilities behind extension hooks.
 * Added the `apbx_default_settings` filter so add-on plugins can register their
   own setting defaults.

#### 1.3.5

 * Increase the spacing between the author name and the role label.

#### 1.3.4

 * Add `Domain Path: /languages` header so WordPress 6.7+ can pick up bundled translations
   via the just-in-time loader.
 * Center the author box horizontally when its width is constrained (margin auto).

#### 1.3.3

 * Add a «Width» setting to control the author box max-width (default 100%).
 * Reinforce theme overrides on author name and bio (max-width / font-size with !
   important).

#### 1.3.2

 * Override theme rules that center the author name and bio (e.g. Neve `.nv-content-
   wrap p { margin: auto !important }`).

#### 1.3.1

 * Removed all licence checks and premium-feature gating from the free plugin code(
   premium features are now distributed via a separate companion plugin).
 * Removed the now-unnecessary `load_plugin_textdomain()` call (handled by WordPress.
   org translation system since WP 4.6).
 * Added extension hooks for add-on plugins (settings, render, social fields, admin
   UI).

#### 1.3.0

 * Lower PHP requirement to 8.2
 * Migrate URLs to tidyplugins.com
 * Fix license validation — require active license for Pro features

#### 1.2.0

 * Add freemium architecture with pro/ directory
 * Add license API integration
 * Add auto-updater for Pro

#### 1.1.0

 * Add Card style
 * Add import tool for other author box plugins
 * Add «View all posts» link option
 * Add Gutenberg block

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release
 * Custom avatar upload
 * Bio and social links
 * Schema.org structured data
 * Shortcode support
