2.0.2

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed incorrect early usage of conditional query tags and get_query_var() in ucf_faq_sort_order().

Enhancements:

• Upgraded packages

2.0.0

Enhancements:

• (Breaking change) Updated Handlebars and Typeahead to enqueue by default, since those were incorrectly set to not enqueue out of the box. To do this, the existing Typeahead/Handlebars enqueue options have been completely removed and replaced with new options. You'll need to adjust these settings again if you depend on these scripts not being enqueued.
• (Breaking change) Renamed Handlebars/Typeahead script handles for consistency with our other plugins
• Implemented late JS enqueueing, so that only pages that utilize the [ucf-faq-search] shortcode will load dependent JS files
• Renamed ucf-faq-script.min.js to ucf-faq-search.min.js for clarity
• Split out existing Common and Shortcode classes into their own separate files
• Added a display function for FAQ searches for consistency with other shortcodes
• Upgraded packages; added Github issue/PR templates and CONTRIBUTING doc

Bug fixes:

• Fixed issue with the handlebars_handle option being formatted as a boolean instead of enqueue_handlebars
• Fixed option_{$option_name} hook to actually work + use the correct option name
• Added default_option_{$option_name} hook to ensure defaults values get returned by get_option() when a unique default param isn't passed in

1.3.0

Enhancements:

• Added the ucf-faq-search shortcode

1.2.0

Enhancements:

• Adds the option to add structured microdata to FAQs.

1.1.6

Enhancements:

• Added a Resource Link Search layout specifically for FAQs.

1.1.3

• Reduced font size of FAQ questions to match Athena Framework font sizing at mobile

Bug fixes:

• Fixed issue with FAQ sort order values not working as expected

1.1.2

Enhancements:

• Moved collapse classes/attrs up to the FAQ's parent <a> tag to prevent issues with misclicks opening the single FAQ post instead of toggling the accordion
• Added aria-expanded attr to FAQ collapse links for improved accessibility

1.1.1

• Added ability to customize (and remove) View All FAQs call-to-action button on FAQ lists (footer_cta_text and footer_cta_url shortcode params). Either of these new shortcode params can be set to a blank value (e.g. footer_cta_text="" to disable the button entirely.)
