Ravanix – Smart Psychological Assessment

Changelog

Full history (every release before 1.3.0) is in changelog.txt.

1.3.10

• Fixed: the actual root cause of the Settings page tabs not working under an RTL/Persian admin language (1.3.9’s fix was a real, worthwhile improvement, but not the cause on the reporting site): WordPress derives a top-level menu page’s hook-name component from sanitize_title() of its translatable menu title, not from the literal slug passed to add_menu_page() — so when a Persian translation for “Ravanix” is active, the Settings page’s actual hook was something other than the hardcoded “ravanix_page_ravanix-settings” this plugin was comparing against, and its CSS/JS silently never loaded at all (confirmed via the reporting user’s own document.styleSheets/document.scripts console output). The hook is now captured from add_submenu_page()’s own return value instead of guessed

1.3.9

• Fixed: on the redesigned Settings page (1.3.8), the tabs could fail to switch at all under an RTL admin language (worked fine under LTR) — on the reporting site, this traced back to a host/security-plugin Content Security Policy blocking eval(), which broke the rich-text editor’s RTL-specific code and, because that failure wasn’t isolated, took tab-switching down with it too. Tab switching no longer depends on the rich-text editor succeeding at all; if it fails for any reason, the affected field just stays a plain text box instead of breaking the rest of the page

1.3.8

• New: redesigned Settings page — 4 tabs (General, Notifications, Roles & Permissions, Tools) with card-grouped sections, replacing the previous single long-scrolling page. All existing fields kept exactly as before (same names/values); only the layout changed
• Fixed: the “Copy” buttons next to each shortcode, previously plain text, are now actual buttons that copy the shortcode to the clipboard
• Accessibility: the new toggle switches have a visible focus indicator for keyboard navigation (WCAG 2.4.7), and the tab bar uses proper ARIA roles (role=”tablist”/”tab”, aria-selected)

1.3.7

• Fixed: the “Ravanix Manager” role (added in 1.3.6) had only the read capability besides its Ravanix-specific ones, which is indistinguishable from a mere site visitor/customer to plugins like WooCommerce that redirect anyone without edit_posts away from wp-admin to the frontend account page. Adding edit_posts (the same baseline capability WordPress’s own Contributor role has, for the same reason) fixes wp-admin access on any site where such a plugin is active, on both new and already-created “Ravanix Manager” roles
• Improved: notification messages (Settings → Email notifications) now use the Classic Editor (rich text: bold, links, paragraphs) instead of a plain textarea, and are sent as formatted HTML email instead of plain text. Every placeholder value that can come from a participant’s own submitted text ({participant_name}) is escaped before being placed into the formatted message, since that message is now HTML

1.3.6

• New: role-based permissions. Six capabilities (manage tests, view results, delete results, export results, import/export test structure, manage settings) can each be granted to any WordPress role from Settings → Roles & Permissions, so e.g. a counselor can manage tests and view results without full site administration. A ready-made “Ravanix Manager” role is available under Users → Add New as a quick start. A site administrator always keeps every capability regardless of this table — enforced at the WordPress capability-resolution level (a ‘user_has_cap’ filter), not just in this plugin’s own code, so this can never turn into a lockout
• Improved: the “Participant Results” list only shows bulk-select checkboxes and the “Delete” action to a user who actually has the new delete-results capability

1.3.5

• New: two extension points in the email-notification system (added in 1.3.4) for Ravanix Pro to use — ‘ravanix_notification_settings’ (per-test recipient/subject/body/on-off overrides) and ‘ravanix_notification_placeholders’ (extra {tokens}, such as Pro’s opt-in {scores_summary}). No effect on Lite-only sites; Lite itself never adds a callback to either
• New: 8 new columns on the tests table (notify_admin_mode and related, notify_participant_mode and related) — inert placeholders unless Ravanix Pro 1.2.4+ is active; existing tests default to “use the site-wide setting”, identical behavior to before this update

1.3.4

• New: optional email notifications after a test is submitted — to the site admin (with a link to the result in wp-admin) and/or to the participant (a simple thank-you), configurable under Settings. Neither email ever includes scores or answers, since email isn’t encrypted and this data is treated as sensitive; the participant email is only sent if that submission actually collected an email address

1.3.3

• Improved: the gap between the “Add New…” form and its list/table (Dimensions, Questions, Interpretation Ranges tabs) is narrower (15px, was 30px), and there’s now a dedicated in-between layout (45%/55%) for tablet/small-laptop widths (783–1100px), between the desktop 40%/60% split and the single-column mobile view

1.3.2

• Improved: loading a test’s full structure (dimensions, questions, options, interpretations, norms, composites) now uses a fixed, small number of batched database queries instead of one query per dimension/question/composite, and the result is cached — noticeably faster on large questionnaires (200+ items), with no change to stored data or behavior
• Improved: activating/updating the plugin on a site with many existing questionnaires no longer risks a timeout re-syncing the custom-post-type mirror for every one of them in a single request; on larger sites this now finishes in the background instead
• Security: the anonymous-participant token (used to let a guest view their own result later) is now generated with PHP’s cryptographic random-number source rather than a general-purpose password generator; a token issued before this update keeps working unchanged
• Fixed: an admin-chosen interpretation-range color that was light could make the fixed white badge text (result page, admin result view, PDF/CSV reports) hard to read; it now gets the same automatic WCAG-AA contrast check already applied to the brand color, computed fresh each time rather than stored
• Fixed: the “Add New…” / list two-column layout shared by the Dimensions, Questions, and Interpretation Ranges tabs used a fixed-pixel form column next to a flex-grow list column, which became visibly unbalanced on wide screens (the form column stayed a small fixed width while the list column claimed all the rest); it’s now a CSS Grid with a fixed 40%/60% split that holds steady at any screen width
• Fixed: the Questions and Interpretation Ranges tables could overflow their column and the page instead of scrolling internally, the same issue already fixed on the Dimensions tab in a previous release; now consistent across all three tabs
• Fixed: two colors used on the “Upgrade to Pro” admin screen (the button, and the ✓/✕ icons in the comparison table) measured below WCAG AA contrast against their background
• Fixed: a database error while saving a test was shown to the admin with the raw SQL error text; it’s now a generic message, with the real error going to the debug log instead

1.3.1

• Fixed: several admin tabs (Dimensions, Questions, Interpretation Ranges, and Ravanix Pro’s Norms and Composite Factors) needed horizontal scrolling on their main table; the “Add New…” form column next to it is now 20% narrower and no longer expands to steal that space

1.3.0

• New: test intro now shows question count, estimated time, and total participants so far, each with its own icon (replaces the old plain “Number of questions” text)
• Improved: “Start Test” and “Submit answers” buttons are noticeably larger and more prominent
