## Installation
1. Upload the plugin to the `/wp-content/plugins/` directory.
2. Activate the plugin through the ‚Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
3. Configure settings under `Settings Chat Engine`.
4. Add the `[init_chatbox]` shortcode anywhere you want the chatbox to appear.
5. Optional: Visit `Chat Engine Management` to moderate messages and users.
## FAQ
### Can guests send messages?
Yes, if enabled in the plugin settings under Basic Settings. Guests will be asked
to enter a display name before sending messages.
### How do I moderate messages and users?
Go to `Chat Engine Management` to view recent messages, ban/unban users, and see
chat statistics. You can search messages, delete inappropriate content, and ban
users by IP or user account.
### Does it support real-time messaging?
This plugin uses REST API with smart polling (3.5-10 second intervals) for broad
compatibility. No WebSocket setup required, works on any hosting.
### How many messages are stored?
Configurable in settings (default: 1000 messages). Old messages are automatically
deleted when the limit is reached. You can also set up automatic cleanup based on
age.
### Can I customize the chat appearance?
Yes, multiple ways:
– Use the Custom CSS field in Advanced Settings – Override
the template by placing `chatbox.php` in your theme’s `init-chat-engine/` folder–
Use shortcode attributes for basic styling – Disable plugin CSS entirely and use
your own
### How does the ban system work?
Administrators can ban users by IP address or user account from the Management panel.
Bans can be temporary (with expiration date) or permanent. Banned users see a clear
message explaining their restriction.
### Can I limit message frequency?
Yes, use the Rate Limiting setting to control how many messages users can send per
minute (1-100 messages). This helps prevent spam and abuse.
### Is it translation-ready?
Yes, the plugin is fully translation-ready with Vietnamese translation included.
All text strings use proper WordPress internationalization functions.
### How do I backup chat data?
Chat messages are stored in your WordPress database in the `wp_init_chatbox_msgs`
table. Use any WordPress backup plugin or database backup tool.

## Changelog
#### 1.3.3 – March 30, 2026
* Added expand/collapse support for pinned message content in banner
* Allows viewing full pinned message without jumping to original message
* Stores full message content via `dataset` to avoid additional queries or requests
* Updated pinned banner to use absolute positioning to eliminate layout shift (
CLS)
* Ensures stable layout when banner appears or updates
* Refined animation and interaction for smoother realtime UX
* No changes to API, database, or existing chat flow
#### 1.3.2 – March 30, 2026
* Introduced Pin Message feature for chat moderation (admin only)
* Allows pinning a single message to the top of the chat box (auto-replaces previous
pin)
* Added hover-based Pin/Unpin button on messages for admins with dynamic state
handling
* Implemented pinned message banner with jump-to-message and highlight animation
* Added REST endpoints: POST /pin and DELETE /pin (nonce-verified, admin only)
* `GET /messages` now includes `pinned_message` for real-time sync across clients
* Pin state cached (5 minutes) with immediate invalidation on update
* Uses existing database (`init_chatbox_stats`) — no schema changes required
* Fully translation-ready via `InitChatEngineData.i18n`
* Fully backwards-compatible and does not affect existing chat flow
#### 1.3.1 – March 26, 2026
* Performance optimization: added object caching for frequently called checks
* `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_has_messages()` now cached (24 hours) to reduce
redundant DB queries during render
* `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_check_user_banned()` now uses 10-minute cache
with multi-key strategy (user ID + IP)
* Implemented proper cache invalidation on ban/unban actions to ensure real-time
accuracy
* Added negative caching to eliminate repeated queries for non-banned users
* Internal optimization only — no UI or database changes
* Improves scalability and reduces database load under high traffic chat environments
#### 1.3.0 – March 2, 2026
* Introduced new **Minimum Account Age Requirement** (Security setting)
* Administrators can now require users to have an account older than **X days**
before participating in chat
* Rule only applies when **guest chatting is disabled** (login required mode)
* Fully integrated across backend and frontend:
- REST `/send` endpoint now enforces account age validation via centralized
security check
- Shared reusable function `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_check_account_age_requirement()`
ensures single source of truth
* Frontend UI enhancement:
- Chat input is automatically disabled (`pointer-events: none; opacity: 0.6`)
when account is too new
- Context-aware warning message displayed directly under the input area
* No impact on guest mode — public chats remain unaffected when guests are allowed
* Backwards-compatible with existing settings and database schema
* Security-focused enhancement to mitigate spam, clone accounts, and coordinated
war activity
#### 1.2.9 – February 13, 2026
* Overhauled **User Ban System** with timezone-aware logic and optimized detection
flow
* Fixed **timezone inconsistency** across ban creation, validation, and display
layers
- `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_ban_user()`: now uses `DateTime` with WordPress
timezone for precise `expires_at` calculation
- `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_check_user_banned()`: replaced `NOW()` (GMT)
with `current_time('mysql')` for accurate expiration checks
- `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_render_banned_message()`: switched to `date_i18n()`
to prevent double timezone conversion
* Improved **ban detection priority** — user accounts are now checked first, IP
fallback only when user is not banned
- Prevents trivial IP-based bypass when logged-in users are banned
- Guest users (no `user_id`) continue to rely on IP-only detection
* Eliminated redundant dual-condition SQL queries (`user_id OR ip_address`) in
favor of sequential checks
* Ban expiration timestamps now remain consistent across creation validation
display (e.g., 48-hour ban created at 8:57 AM expires exactly at 8:57 AM, not
3:56 PM)
* Enhanced WP_DEBUG logging with detailed timestamp comparisons for admin troubleshooting
* Fully backwards-compatible with existing ban records and database schema
* Internal security hardening only; no UI or frontend behavioral changes
#### 1.2.8 – November 11, 2025
* Hotfix: fixed **Load More (history pagination)** message order becoming inconsistent
- **API (`before_id`)**: changed `ORDER BY id` from **ASC DESC**
- **Frontend (Load More)**: removed `.reverse()`, now directly `prepend()` using
API DESC order
- **Frontend (Initial load)**: unchanged — reverse initial batch then `append()`(
old new)
- **Frontend (Realtime / after_id)**: unchanged — API returns ASC, frontend `
append()`
* Result: timeline in the DOM remains strictly **old new**
* Minimal change — **no DB schema changes, no UI changes**
#### 1.2.7 – November 10, 2025
* Fixed **Load More / Pagination** logic returning messages in reversed order
* API now consistently outputs messages in **chronological ASC** order across:
- Initial load
- History pagination (`before_id`)
- Realtime polling (`after_id`)
* No frontend sorting required — FE only append/prepend based on mode
* Ensures smooth timeline continuity when fetching older batches
* Internal change only; does **not affect DB schema or UI behavior**
#### 1.2.6 – October 20, 2025
* Overhauled **Word Filter Engine** with hardened validation lifecycle
* Default strategy is now **aggressive substring detection** (catches `https://`,
domains, encoded text, spam links, etc.)
* Fully respects existing Security settings:
- `Enable Word Filtering` toggle
- `Blocked Words` textarea (one per line, supports Unicode)
- `Word Filter Exceptions` (role-based whitelist: Administrators always bypass)
* Introduced new developer extension hooks (no new UI options):
- `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_word_filter_strategy` — switch filter logic(`
substring`, `word`, `regex`)
- `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_blocked_words` — modify blocked word list programmatically
- `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_bypass_filter` — bypass filtering based on
custom logic (VIP, IP ranges, etc.)
- `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_word_block_hit` — event fired when a blocked
word triggers
* Improved unicode normalization and internal cleanup of blocked-word lists (removes
empty lines and `#comments`)
* Fully backwards-compatible — no disruption to existing settings or workflows
* Strengthened message security layer; prevents all major spam patterns (URL, Discord
invite, Telegram link, obfuscated characters)
#### 1.2.5 – October 18, 2025
* Added new **“Delete All Messages”** button under **Quick Actions** in the management
panel
* Feature permanently removes all chat messages from the database with a single
click
* Protected by full security stack: admin-only capability, nonce verification,
and SQL transaction safety
* Resets all chat statistics (`total_messages`, `messages_today`, `active_users_today`,
etc.) post-deletion
* Includes detailed WP_DEBUG logging for admin audit trail (`who`, `when`)
* UX-consistent with existing “Run Cleanup Now” button — executes instantly without
JS dependency
* Designed as a “nuclear cleanup” option for administrators managing public chat
environments
* No other functional or visual changes; this update focuses solely on administrative
maintenance tools
#### 1.2.4 – October 18, 2025
* Rebuilt **FX Keyword Engine** for per-message precision and zero-DOM overhead
* Replaced global `TreeWalker` scanning with on-demand inline FX application during
message render
* Introduced new internal helpers: `getCompiledFXRules()` and `applyFXInMessageContainer()`
* Rules are now compiled once and reused, ensuring stable performance even with
large message histories
* Removed redundant functions `initChatboxReplaceFXKeywords()`, `safeReplaceFXKeywordsInDOM()`,
and `runFXIfHasMessages()`
* Eliminated repeated DOM traversals after message batch rendering (initial load,
polling, or history fetch)
* Maintained full compatibility with external `runEffect()` logic and `FX_KEYWORDS`
data structure
* Improved keyword detection accuracy using unified regex alternation with named
groups
* Achieved significant runtime gains — messages now apply FX instantly upon creation
* Internal optimization only; no visual or behavioral changes for end users
#### 1.2.3 – October 14, 2025
* Added safe integration hook for cross-plugin Init FX Engine keyword replacement
* Chat engine now auto-invokes external DOM keyword highlighter (`replaceFXKeywordsInDOM`)**
only when new messages are loaded**
* Added conditional wrapper with `typeof` check to prevent errors if the external
plugin is not active
* Introduced new internal helper: `safeRunFX()` for async idle execution (avoids
blocking UI on message bursts)
* Implemented new scoped function `initChatboxReplaceFXKeywords()` — optimized
DOM scanning limited to `.init-chatbox-text` only
* Rewrote FX keyword parser with `TreeWalker` for deep text traversal and regex
stability
* Eliminated duplicate link generation and ensured idempotent behavior (no double
replacements)
* Performance improved significantly when many messages are rendered or refreshed
in batch
* Internal enhancement only — no UI changes; improves plugin compatibility and
runtime stability
#### 1.2.2 – October 7, 2025
* **Hotfix Release:** removed redundant ban check inside `[init_chatbox]` shortcode
* Eliminated secondary `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_check_user_banned()` call(
already handled by shortcode controller)
* Prevented duplicate banned-message rendering and minor timezone mismatches
* Simplified shortcode logic for better maintainability and consistency with ban
middleware
* No user-facing behavior change — internal backend cleanup only
#### 1.2.1 – October 7, 2025
* Added role-based word filter exceptions in Security settings
* New UI option: **“Word Filter Exceptions”** allows selecting user roles that
can bypass blocked-word restrictions
* Default exempt role: **Administrator** (others can be toggled via checkboxes)
* Enhanced backend sanitization with strict role validation against existing WordPress
roles
* Updated message validation logic: users in exempt roles can send blocked words
without triggering filter
* Preserves security for guests and non-exempt roles (still subject to normal word
filtering)
* Improved localization: added Vietnamese translations for all new settings strings
#### 1.2.0 – October 2, 2025
* Introduced new filter `init_plugin_suite_chat_engine_enrich_message_row` for
extending message rows with custom user metadata
* Enables themes/plugins to attach extra flags (roles, VIP status, moderation rights,
etc.) without touching core logic
* Improves flexibility and forward-compatibility of the chat engine API, allowing
richer integrations and UI features downstream
#### 1.1.9 – October 1, 2025
* Added optional support for user profile links in chat messages
* Introduced `profile_url` field in API responses for registered users
* Provided frontend hook (`initChatEngineMessageElementHook`) to linkify display
names if desired
* Feature is opt-in only; by default, names remain plain text for backward compatibility
#### 1.1.8 – September 13, 2025
* Hardened `/send` security for logged-in users: strictly validate `X-WP-Nonce`
and block cross-site POST attempts
* Sanitized inputs on the server before storage: apply `wp_strip_all_tags()` to
both `message` and `display_name` (logged-in and guest paths)
* Rejected empty or non-visible messages: now fails fast on whitespace-/zero-width-/
control-character–only content
* Enforced length limits server-side (pre-insert) to prevent oversized payloads;
behavior matches UI constraints
* Kept output defense-in-depth: responses continue to use `wp_kses_post()` for
message rendering
* Tightened server-side anti-abuse: permission callback rate-limit check remains
authoritative (in addition to any client throttling)
#### 1.1.7 – September 13, 2025
* Updated URL auto-linking logic to only apply when the link matches the current
site domain

bolds „2”)
* Updated regex patterns to use OR logic: format when either start OR end has whitespace
boundary
* Enhanced support for edge cases like `*start* and *end*` now properly formats
both words
* Maintained strict content validation: no spaces immediately after opening or
before closing markers
