== Upgrade Notice ==

= 1.3.1 =
Packaging fix for wordpress.org installs. If 1.3.0 failed with "Could not copy file", delete `wp-content/plugins/wp-post-rating/` and install again.

= 1.3.0 =
If the update shows "Could not copy file", deactivate the plugin, delete the `wp-post-rating` folder under `wp-content/plugins/` (FTP or hosting file manager), then install again. Your ratings and settings stay in the database.

== Changelog ==
= 1.3.1 =
* Fixed: Release zip no longer includes dev files (`.editorconfig`, `.distignore`, source `assets/js/`) that could confuse installs on strict hosts
= 1.3.0 =
* Changed: Removed runtime Composer vendor (Twig, Symfony DI); plugin uses a lightweight PSR-4 autoloader and PHP templates
* Added: `PluginBootstrap` service wiring, `.wordpress/` Docker dev stack with plugin bind-mount, Playground blueprints (`.sandbox/`, root `blueprint.json`)
* Fixed: Text domain loaded on `init` (WordPress 6.7+ notice); lazy loading for admin list table and widget classes
* Note: Updating from 1.2.x removes thousands of old vendor files; on some hosts the dashboard update may fail once — delete the plugin folder and reinstall if you see "Could not copy file"
= 1.2.5 =
* Added: Makefile `plugin-remove` to deactivate and remove the plugin from local Docker installs
* Improved: `.distignore` excludes dev tooling from WordPress.org packages (node_modules, Docker/Makefile, docs)
= 1.2.4 =
* Fixed: wordpress.org and incomplete installs missing `src/Compat/ListTableLoader.php` (fatal on activation)
* Fixed: release package now always ships `src/Compat/` for `WPR\Compat\ListTableLoader` (Composer PSR-4 autoload)

* Requires WordPress 6.0+ and PHP 8.1+ (tested up to WordPress 6.8)

* Improved text domain loading with English (en_US) fallback
