275 275 == Changelog ==
276 += 4.18.0: October 1st, 2026 =
277 +* Enhancement: Improved donations list table performance on sites with hundreds of thousands of donations by paging on IDs first, fixing the total count query, and replacing the single-column donation meta indexes with composite ones
278 +* Enhancement: Improved the Reports screen and legacy earnings stats on large sites by summing and counting donations in the database instead of loading every donation into memory
279 +* Enhancement: Improved donation processing speed by skipping unnecessary offline donation email checks
280 +* Fix: Recurring donation stats on the campaigns list now read from the cache correctly instead of showing empty values
281 +* Fix: Campaign stats now show for campaigns that were added after the stats cache was built
282 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where campaign stats showed as zero after viewing the Campaigns screen with test mode enabled
283 +* Fix: Donations list table was running extremely slowly and including trashed donations on large sites.
284 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where a database error while saving a donation, donor, subscription, campaign, or event caused a critical error and hid the real cause
285 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where sites running PHP 8.4 or newer logged deprecation notices from GiveWP
286 +* Fix: Database migrations started a second time in requests that arrive while a slow migration is still running. Now it runs one time and the migrations list now shows the latest run first.
287 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where a PHP warning could appear on development copies of GiveWP that have not been built
288 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where subscription webhook events caused a fatal error when the subscription had no initial donation
289 +* Fix: Updated campaign duplication to create a single copy of each associated form when form metadata contains duplicate keys.
290 +* Fix: Restored donor names, initials, and totals on the donor wall block and shortcode.
291 +* Security: Enhanced security in Stripe webhook module
292 +* Security: Enhanced security on the campaign block. (CVE-2026-97643)
293 +* Security: Enhanced security for the Donor Dashboard access.
294 +
295 += 4.17.0: September 23rd, 2026 =
296 +* Feature: Added the ability to embed donation forms on any website with a copy-paste snippet from the form builder
297 +* Enhancement: Donation form embeds now show a loading state while the form loads
298 +* Fix: Fixed PHP 8.4 deprecation notices about implicitly nullable parameters
299 +* Fix: Fixed the revenue table index migration adding duplicate indexes when it runs more than once
300 +* Fix: Added additional escaping to the legacy donation form's billing address fields.
301 +* Security: Donors can no longer add unverified email addresses to their own donor record.
302 +* Security: Enhanced security for donations imported from CSV
303 +
304 += 4.16.9: September 16th, 2026 =
305 +* Security: Added additional validation to PayPal Commerce donation processing.
306 +* Security: Added additional sanitization to donor information displayed on public pages.
307 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where resuming a paused Stripe subscription triggered a fatal error.
308 +
309 += 4.16.8.1: September 10th, 2026 =
310 +* Security: Improved validation of the event tickets purchase flow.
311 +* Security: Added additional validation to PayPal Commerce completed-order processing.
312 +* Security: Added additional validation to donor email lookups. Thanks Jakub Herman for responsibly disclosing this issue.
313 +
314 += 4.16.8: September 2nd, 2026 =
315 +* Fix: Fixed a campaign's default donation form appearing unpublished in the form builder.
316 +* Fix: Fixed PHP warnings on the form builder screen when its page is opened without the locale or donation form ID query arguments.
317 +* Fix: Resolved a plugin conflict that prevented donor first and last names from being recorded when the Charitable plugin was active alongside GiveWP.
318 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where the custom amount minimum and maximum also applied to the donation levels and the set donation amount, so a level below the minimum could not be donated. Forms that leave the minimum empty now fall back to the lowest configured amount, and a minimum or maximum with cents is no longer rounded down.
319 +* Security: Removed vulnerable dead code related to legacy donor relinking. (CVE-2026-82676)
320 +* Security: Enhanced security on donor account access. (CVE-2026-82675)
321 +* Tweak: Replaced the axios HTTP client with WordPress core's apiFetch in the donor dashboard, reports, onboarding wizard, and the log and migration list tables, and removed axios from the plugin's JavaScript dependencies.

334 +* Fix: Resolved an issue where editing a page could exhaust the PHP call stack when a theme or plugin filtered post metadata.
335 +* Fix: Activation banner for addons doesn't show when addons are activated from the Unified License Manager
