LLMS Amplifiercurrent: v2.7.12

Changelog

Every release since v1.0.0 — new features, fixes, and security work. Updates ship automatically through WordPress.

v2.7.12 Reliability

OKF Publication Gating

Keeps Headless Mode’s public JSON index aligned with Published Files while preserving private OKF generation for validation.

  • Headless llms-index.json now advertises /okf/manifest.json only when OKF is selected under Published Files
  • Private OKF generation remains available, and selecting OKF restores one hashed manifest entry
  • Complete generation and standalone index refreshes now share the same final index gate
  • Validation covers packaged encoder cases and durable private, published, and unpublished WordPress transitions
  • Run one full regeneration after updating to rewrite any cached llms-index.json
v2.7.11 Reliability

Regeneration Worker Recovery

Stabilizes recovery from stranded generation-worker conditions observed during headless canary testing.

  • Durable regeneration requests now ignore stale or far-future events and insert a verified recovery event
  • Surplus one-shot callbacks become no-ops once requested and satisfied revisions converge
  • Recurring scheduled publication remains unconditional
  • Diagnostics now expose live worker state and the exact next-worker timestamp
  • The gate adds PHP 8.5 plus real-WordPress coverage for far-future recovery and no-op publication identity
v2.7.10 Reliability

Headless Settings Persistence

Preserves Headless Mode settings through partial writes and verifies committed publication state before scheduling.

  • Canonical public URL and route map values stay intact when omitted by partial or unrelated writes
  • A Published Files presence marker distinguishes omitted settings from intentional all-unchecked clears
  • Public origin and artifact selection are verified after commit before publication is scheduled
  • Concurrent settings writers serialize and fail closed when committed state cannot be verified
  • Packaged and real-WordPress coverage now includes normal saves, AJAX writes, module toggles, regeneration, and explicit clears
v2.7.9 Reliability

Supplemental Publication & Cache Integrity

Stabilizes supplemental publication, stable-URL cache behavior, and Markdown Negotiation diagnostics after live smoke testing.

  • Supplemental upload and replacement work again without dirtying the main settings form
  • Create, replace, delete, toggle, and bulk mutations report committed truth and request one publication revision
  • Integrity-bearing routes now send no-cache, must-revalidate headers; query fallbacks send no-store
  • The serving audit checks exact bytes, bounded downloads, cache policy, and common CDN overrides
  • Markdown Negotiation diagnostics now enforce media types and Vary: Accept on both response legs
v2.7.8 Feature

Publication Identity & .md Route Ownership

Adds stable publication identity for headless deploys and fixes a production .md route collision.

  • Markdown fallback routes now sort behind explicitly owned .md rules while preserving page Markdown addresses
  • Upgrades rebuild the rewrite table once after the rules-version migration
  • llms-index.json now carries publication_id, content_digest, and frozen published_at values
  • The OKF manifest lists every servable bundle file with served-byte SHA-256 and size
  • The index is generated last and withheld when a run fails, with a new publication-completed action for integrations
v2.7.7 Discovery

Markdown Discovery Links

Adds standards-based Markdown discovery so agents can find each eligible page’s Markdown version and the covering llms.txt file.

  • Eligible pages now expose stable Markdown URLs, served unconditionally as Markdown
  • Pages advertise rel="alternate" Markdown links and rel="describedby" links to their covering llms.txt
  • Subdirectory content points to the correct subpath llms.txt, not always the site-wide file
  • Existing supplemental file URLs and the Knowledge Bundle namespace are preserved when addresses would collide
  • 404 pages no longer advertise the Knowledge Bundle; discovery appears only with Markdown Negotiation and pretty permalinks enabled
v2.7.6 Reliability

Settings Form Repair

Restructures admin-post mini-forms so settings-screen actions submit correctly without changing the visual layout.

  • Record data-loss acceptance now submits to the correct endpoint and records the explicit acknowledgment
  • Disk-backend migration and preserved-uninstall controls no longer break the main settings form
  • Mini-form buttons now use the HTML5 form attribute while staying visually in place
  • The OKF section description now uses the same version constant emitted in bundle frontmatter
  • CI now checks repository tooling line endings and pins the settings-form interior as form-free
v2.7.5 Feature

Backlog Cleanup & AIOSEO Descriptions

Clears translation, SEO-description, admin-guard, and real-WordPress CI backlog items across the plugin.

  • Admin JavaScript strings now localize through the plugin text domain
  • The offers NOT PUBLISHED badge now works correctly on translated sites
  • The OKF regenerate button now respects the unsaved-changes guard
  • All in One SEO descriptions now feed llms.txt, llms-full.txt, llms-index.json, and OKF output through one shared resolver
  • CI now covers supplemental admin-AJAX flows, Markdown negotiation, and disk-to-database migration against real WordPress
v2.7.4 Reliability

Markdown Self-Test & Output Hardening

Adds one-click Markdown negotiation testing and hardens page summaries, OKF output limits, uninstall cleanup, and admin feedback.

  • Markdown Negotiation now includes a self-test that compares markdown and normal page responses
  • Page summaries now use the same content source as page bodies and keep escaped shortcodes literal
  • OKF concept bodies now have a fence-aware 10,000-word guardrail with truncation metadata
  • Destructive uninstall now fully purges database-backend supplemental rows after acknowledgment
  • Admin polish improves offer publication badges, Scan Now refreshes, Abilities buttons, and schedule-preserving settings writes
v2.7.3 Reliability

Unified Content Sources & Real WordPress CI

Aligns content sourcing across generated surfaces and adds real WordPress integration coverage for route, artifact, and schema behavior.

  • OKF concept bodies and negotiated Markdown now select content exactly like llms-full.txt
  • Successful page-builder renders now win consistently, while crashed renders degrade safely
  • Grouped WooCommerce products now emit real child price ranges, and attributes use decoded store labels
  • Supplemental URLs now return true 404s when disabled or unknown, even with stale rewrite rules
  • CI now installs the packaged plugin on WordPress with MySQL and WP-CLI for integration checks
v2.7.2 Feature

Verified Supplemental Storage & Safe Migration

Adds verified database storage and resumable migration for supplemental files, with guarded import, recovery, and uninstall behavior.

  • Fresh sites default to SHA-256-verified database storage; existing disk installs remain unchanged until migrated
  • Batched migration verifies each file before switching and leaves failed entries safely on disk
  • Supplemental imports support dry-run validation, readiness checks, and verified rollback on failure
  • Destructive uninstall requires a recent settings export or explicit acknowledgment; preserved data remains intact
  • Fixed mixed-case file IDs and hardened replacement, deletion, recovery, quota, and cache-purge reporting
v2.7.1 Reliability

Resilient Builder Rendering & Cleaner Output

Keeps generation running through page-builder crashes and corrects output-quality issues found during live production testing, with no storage changes.

  • A crashing builder page now degrades safely instead of blocking every generated AI file
  • Admin status clearly identifies degraded pages and reports the underlying render exception
  • WooCommerce sale and variable prices now render correctly across summaries, catalogs, and OKF output
  • Builder templates, empty sections, stray shortcode tokens, and unstable HTML entities no longer pollute output
  • Public file responses no longer set session cookies, and a one-time upgrade regeneration refreshes published files
v2.7.0 Major

Modular Features & OKF v0.2

Introduces unified module controls, three opt-in AI capabilities, and OKF v0.2 conformance without changing storage architecture.

  • Twelve feature modules can be controlled independently without deleting saved data
  • Optional Markdown negotiation serves requesting AI clients while browsers continue to receive HTML
  • Optional Content Signals publish only the AI search, input, and training preferences explicitly selected
  • Abilities connectivity adds strict category schemas and JSON imports in preparation for future MCP transport
  • OKF bundles now follow v0.2 with updated source metadata and cleaner directory indexes
v2.6.13 Reliability

Broader Commerce Chrome Detection

Completes the product-archive cleanup across more theme ecosystems by recognizing interactive chrome beyond class names alone.

  • Add-to-cart, wishlist, and compare controls are removed by action URL even when themes use vendor-specific classes
  • Hyphenated and underscored query forms are supported, while ordinary URLs mentioning those words remain intact
  • URL matching is extensible through llms_amplifier_interactive_chrome_href_actions
  • Screen-reader-only text, exact-token fake buttons, and WCBoost wishlist and compare chrome are also removed
v2.6.12 Reliability

Cleaner Product Archive Output

Removes repeated commerce controls from rendered product archives before they reach generated text, with no settings or storage changes.

  • Add-to-cart, wishlist, compare, and quick-view controls, select fields, and WooCommerce add-to-cart forms are removed before extraction
  • Cleanup applies to llms-full.txt bodies and summaries and to flattened OKF concept bodies
  • Exact class-token matching, extensible through llms_amplifier_interactive_chrome_classes, preserves ordinary links, FAQ controls, and cart-page forms
  • Minified or malformed markup is handled safely; CI now tests PHP 7.4, 8.1, and 8.3
v2.6.11 Usability

Smarter Private-Storage Notices

Makes private-storage warnings match each site’s actual impact and guides blocked actions where they occur, with no storage architecture or public-generation changes.

  • Dashboard-wide errors now appear only when stored files, import recovery, or cleanup work is affected
  • Affected sites retain the full warning, including the number of frozen supplemental files
  • Inline notices identify blocked supplemental-file and settings-import actions with a Guided Setup link
  • Site Health reports unaffected sites as recommended rather than critical, with clearer context
v2.6.10 Security

Security & Output Integrity Audit

Completes an independent audit remediation cycle, hardening updates, private storage, publication safety, and generated-output correctness.

  • Updates now refuse unverified download hosts, and public caches clear only after successful publication
  • Markdown, JSON, OKF, and WooCommerce output share the same visibility rules; resource hashes match served bytes
  • WooCommerce memory recursion and background shortcode failures are fixed, while OKF fallbacks return safe explicit errors
  • Supplemental and recovery data moves from public uploads to verified private storage with guided recovery
  • Five data-loss and eleven output-correctness defects are fixed; existing logs migrate to rotating files — regenerate after updating
v2.6.9 Reliability

Complete Content & Leaner Logging

Restores full post bodies to llms-full.txt while reducing logging overhead and addressing multisite and WooCommerce failures.

  • llms-full.txt now includes post bodies by default, with a new control enabled automatically on upgrade
  • “Max Words Per Post” now limits generated body text as intended
  • WooCommerce construction was refactored to address a memory-exhaustion loop; v2.6.10 completes the remediation
  • Routine page-view noise is removed, critical threats always log, and a 50,000-row ceiling is enforced
  • Multisite logging, 100-site limits, and Last Generated reporting are corrected; large log upgrades may run longer once
v2.6.8 Reliability

Artifact Health Checks & Accessible Status

Surfaces the health of every generated artifact and points administrators to the right repair control, with accessibility and section-state fixes throughout the settings screen.

  • Expandable status table shows size, line count, write time, and health for every configured artifact
  • Proactive checks flag unwritable storage, missing files or rewrite rules, shadowing root files, and incomplete headless setup
  • Repair links expand, scroll to, and highlight the right control without running an action
  • All asynchronous tools now announce completion to assistive technology
  • Collapsed sections persist immediately; no settings migrations or generated-output changes
v2.6.7 Feature

Multi-Location Profiles & Guided Setup

Expands business details beyond a single address and fixed social networks while making initial setup easier to navigate.

  • Repeatable locations with a lossless migration, primary-address compatibility, and rollback safety
  • site.location remains backward compatible; site.locations[] appears only for multiple locations
  • Unlimited labeled social profiles preserve the existing JSON object schema
  • Optional Locations block in llms-full.txt stays off by default and only appears for multi-location sites
  • Added collapsible sections, a first-run checklist, inline URL validation, and keyboard-accessible help

  • Common tasks moved higher, including Content Discovery and Your Custom Message
  • Sticky jump navigation and scroll spy link all 15 settings sections
  • Sticky save bar and unsaved-changes warning protect in-progress edits
  • File-freshness status strip and a simpler Security Overview surface actionable state
  • Task-focused labels and clearer descriptions throughout; no data or generated-output changes
v2.6.5 Security

  • WordPress update notices, Update Now, and per-plugin auto-updates continue unchanged
  • Version Details now displays formatted release notes
  • Optional beta channel supports staging; generated artifacts remain unchanged
v2.6.4 Feature

Headless URL Routing & Fixed OKF Links

Corrects broken OKF cross-links and adds a routing layer for sites whose public front end lives outside WordPress.

  • OKF links now resolve at /okf/, inside downloaded ZIPs, and from alternate mount points; regenerate the bundle after updating
  • Canonical Front-End URL maps each content type to its public route, prefix, page anchor, or exclusion
  • Unmapped content and unpublished artifacts are withheld instead of advertising unreliable URLs
  • Public routing applies to cross-links, navigation, headers, robots.txt, and generated content URLs
  • Headless settings trigger regeneration and suppress WordPress-side discovery tags; publishing files to the public front end remains your responsibility
v2.6.3 Feature

Entity Type for Individuals & Personal Brands

Expands Business Identity settings to represent individuals, personal brands, and more business types accurately in llms-index.json.

  • New Person / Individual entity type for personal brands, freelancers, and solo operators

  • By-type directories with auto-generated index files
  • Conformant OKF frontmatter with a namespaced extension
  • Admin concept-graph view with orphan-page detection
  • WooCommerce products as Product concepts with Schema sections
