2.5.4: August 7th, 2019

• New: Stripe compatibility solution – There is now a setting under Donations > Settings > Advanced > Stripe that allows you select which implementation of Stripe you wish to use. If you are using another plugin that uses Stripe to accept payments there is a chance that it may include the Stripe SDK (Software Development Kit) either through Composer or manually initialized. This can cause conflicts with GiveWP because WordPress does not have a dependency management system to prevent conflicts and the other plugins may be using outdated versions compared to GiveWP’s. To help resolve conflicts we have included two options to use Stripe alongside these other plugins. The recommended way is Composer, but if that is not working then we recommend manual initialized. If both options do not work please contact support. #4193
• Fix: When using Stripe there was a chance your donors would get a receipt from Stripe and from GiveWP. There is now a setting to set whether you want to send Stripe generated receipt emails or use GiveWP’s. We recommend using ours if you’re using multiple gateways, but if you’re only using Stripe you may enable this new option and disable the default receipts. #4203

• Fix: When editing a donor you can now properly remove the “Title” for the donor (such as “Mr”, “Mrs”, etc). #4211
• Fix: Ensure the requirement on the state field is removed from hidden state fields for certain countries and regions. #4201
• Fix: Resolved a compatibility issue with the Tickera plugin’s implementation of QR codes within the PDF generator. The issue was with our shared library of TCPDF and now the QR codes display correctly due to a constant change on our end. #3880
• Tweak: You can now activate any plugin under Settings > Licenses. Previously we were requiring the author to only be GiveWP which caused an “this plugin does not have a valid header” error message to annoyingly display. #4217

2.1.3: May 23rd, 2018

• New: Better SPAM protection through the usage of improved client and server side validation to only allow alphabet characters for first and last name, validation to ensure that the gateway field is not left empty (to combat SPAM bot scripts), and sanitize all input fields when processing the donation. #3035

• Fix: GiveWP’s API was not respecting the date range parameters passed to it. Now it does so you can filter the API by date ranges as expected. #3191
• Fix: This version contains a database cleanup routine to delete donation payment meta that is not attached to any payment. For instance, if you deleted a payment the metadata associated with it still remained prior to this version. With this upgrade the orphaned data will be removed. #3205
• Fix: Resolved PHP notices when exporting donor in lower PHP versions. (#3222)[https://github.com/impress-org/givewp/issues/3222], #3218

• New: The email system within GiveWP has been revamped so it’s easier to toggle on or off and customize the various notifications all via one interface. #1346
