[2.2] - 2026-07-29

Description

This release introduces comprehensive block support for the Reviews post type, including new meta blocks, block variations for connecting reviews to core Tour Operator post types, a review card pattern, and updated block-based templates for archive and single review pages.

Added

  • New LSX_TO_Reviews_Blocks class for centralised block and pattern registration (classes/class-to-reviews-blocks.php)
  • Meta blocks for review fields: date-of-visit, rating, reviewer-name, tagline, gallery, no-adults, no-children
  • Connection blocks for linking reviews to other post types: accommodation-to-review, destination-to-review, team-to-review, tour-to-review
  • Related review query blocks for core post types: accommodation-related-review, destination-related-review, tour-related-review
  • Featured review block (featured-review) for highlighting a single review
  • Block variations for reviews registered on accommodation, destination, team, and tour post types
  • Review card block pattern (patterns/review-card.php) for displaying testimonials in query loops
  • Conditional block registration utility (src/utils/conditional-block-registration.js)
  • Post type JSON definition (post-types/review.json) with full field schema
  • Breadcrumbs (Yoast SEO breadcrumbs block) and a hero/cover section with post title and tagline to templates/single-review.html

Updated

  • templates/single-review.html — rebuilt with new meta blocks and connection blocks
  • templates/single-review.html — sticky menu now supports customizable active/hover background and text colors and font size; padding adjusted across review sections and the sticky menu; breadcrumbs section styling refined for layout and readability
  • templates/single-review.html — removed the standalone "Reviewer:" label/value block (reviewer name is still shown via post meta elsewhere in the template)
  • templates/archive-review.html — updated to use review card pattern in query loop
  • patterns/review-card.php — post title in the review card is now a link (isLink: true)
  • classes/class-to-reviews-frontend.php — added travel_dates() filter to format stored date-of-visit timestamps using the site's configured date format
  • README.txt — "Tested up to" bumped to WordPress 7.0
  • Plugin version bumped to 2.2.0

Fixed

  • Schema: replaced duplicate itemReviewed keys (tour + accommodation were silently overwriting each other) with a new add_items_reviewed() method that merges both into a single array.
  • Schema: ratingValue is now cast to (int) to match Schema.org convention; bestRating is fixed at 5 and worstRating at 1; the reviewRating block is now conditional on a non-empty rating value.
  • Schema: review @id updated from #review to #/schema/review/{id} to avoid collisions on pages with multiple reviews.
  • Schema: email removed from the nested author Person object to prevent exposure of reviewer contact data.
  • Schema: taxonomy field mapped from reviewSection → about for category terms.
  • Schema: description now uses \lsx\schema\Helpers::strip_to_text() on filtered content instead of a bare wp_strip_all_tags() call.
  • Schema: date-of-visit range now formatted as an ISO 8601 interval (start/end) using \lsx\schema\Helpers::format_iso_date(); falls back to an additionalProperty PropertyValue when only one date is present.
  • Schema: destinations typed as TouristDestination (was Country/State based on post parent check); tours typed as TouristTrip; accommodation typed as LodgingBusiness.
  • Schema: replaced get_the_ID() calls with explicit $post->ID for consistency in meta queries.
  • Schema: added url property to the root Review node.

Security

  • Added ABSPATH checks to prevent direct file access in classes/class-to-reviews.php, classes/class-to-reviews-templates.php, includes/post-types/config-review.php, includes/template-tags.php, and patterns/review-card.php
  • Removed an unnecessary load_plugin_textdomain action in classes/class-to-reviews-admin.php
  • Renamed metabox variable for consistency and clarity in includes/metaboxes/config-review.php
  • Addressed Plugin Check and WPCS issues flagged for the plugin (LS-1952)
  • Tested with WordPress 7.0
  • Tested with PHP 8.0+
