Weal Profile

Опис

Weal Profile adds a dedicated front-end account page for authenticated users (default: /my-account), allowing them to manage selected profile fields without accessing the WordPress admin dashboard.

The plugin also includes an admin settings page where site administrators can configure the account page and choose which profile fields are editable by users.

Admin Features

Available in the WordPress admin menu under Weal Profile.

Administrators can:

• Enable or disable profile fields shown on the public account page
• Set a custom URL slug for the personal account page (default: /my-account)
• Enable or disable the comment likes/dislikes system

Available profile fields:

• Avatar\Gravatar
• Display Name
• Website URL
• Nickname
• First Name
• Last Name
• Biography

Front-End User Features

On the public account page, logged-in users can:

• Edit their personal profile information (based on admin settings)
• Upload and remove a profile avatar
• View their comment activity and reaction statistics (likes/dislikes received)

Post Rating System

A 5-star rating system is automatically displayed on single post pages. Features:

• Visitors can rate posts from 1 to 5 stars
• Rating is stored in post meta (rating_sum, rating_count, rating_average)
• Partial star visualisation (e.g. 3.5 stars shows 3 full + 1 half-filled star)
• Anti-double-vote protection via cookies
• AJAX-based submission with instant UI update
• Schema.org AggregateRating markup for SEO

Comment Likes / Dislikes

Logged-in users can like or dislike comments on posts. Features:

• Toggle likes and dislikes with a single click
• Active state visual feedback on voted buttons
• Vote counts update instantly via AJAX
• Configurable toggle in admin settings to enable/disable the system
• Comment reaction statistics shown on the user profile page (total likes/dislikes received, top voted comments)
• Dedicated database table (weal_comment_votes) for efficient vote storage
• Unique constraint prevents duplicate votes per user per comment

Activity Center

The plugin provides a convenient centralized space where users can track their comment history and quickly return to conversations they participated in.

Database

The plugin creates a custom database table on activation:

• wp_weal_comment_votes — stores comment likes/dislikes (comment_id, user_id, is_liked, created_at)

When updating the plugin, the table is automatically created or updated via a version check — no need to deactivate and reactivate.
