== Changelog of 'Auto-Install Free SSL' ==

= 3.6.10 =
* Updated the Freemius WordPress SDK to version 2.6.2.
* [Pro] Fixed an issue with displaying a log message.

= 3.6.9 =
* Updated the Freemius WordPress SDK to version 2.6.1.
* [Pro] Added an existing video documentation in the cPanel settings page.

= 3.6.8 =
* Introduced an email field in the first step of the SSL generation process to gather the admin email ID. This update ensures a valid email ID is provided for Let's Encrypt account registration. In previous versions, the WordPress Administration Email Address was used for this purpose. However, certain hosting providers' systems set an incorrect email as the WordPress Administration Email Address, leading to bounced emails for renewal reminders.

= 3.6.7 =
* Updated the Freemius WordPress SDK to version 2.6.0.

= 3.6.6 =
* Substituted the deprecated function get_currentuserinfo() with wp_get_current_user().
* Enhanced some instructions for manual SSL generation.
* [Pro] Enhanced the logging code for cases where the '.well-known/acme-challenge' directory is not writable.

= 3.6.5 =
* In version 3.6.3, we introduced A record verification for all domain aliases against the server's IP address to cater to specific use cases. However, this caused issues for some websites, especially those using CDNs. In this update, we've adjusted our approach: by default, only the 'mail.' alias A record is verified, as was the case in version 3.6.2 and earlier. However, the user can enable A record verification for all domain aliases if needed by setting 'aifs_verify_ip_for_all_domain_alias' to true.

= 3.6.4 =
* Improved the detection process (and fixed a related bug) of the server's IPv4 address where the WordPress website is hosted.
* Updated the Freemius WordPress SDK to version 2.5.12.

= 3.6.3 =
* Resolved a loading issue with the theme editor in the WordPress 6.3 dashboard when Force HTTPS is activated.
* Enhanced IP address verification logic for all available domain aliases, as opposed to solely the 'mail.' alias in previous versions. Now, it filters out the alias if its A record differs from the server's IP address. Note that if the option 'aifs_verify_ip_for_mail_dot_domain_alias_only' is set to true, it will verify the IP address of the 'mail.' alias exclusively. However, if the option 'aifs_selected_verification_method_dns01' is set to true (making DNS-01 the default method), the above verification will not occur.
* Updated the Freemius WordPress SDK to version 2.5.11.

= 3.6.2 =
* Enhanced error handling logic for cases where after submitting a request to the 'finalize' URL, the response from Let's Encrypt contains an empty 'certificate' key (location value).
* Resolved an issue where the 'finalize' response was unintentionally removed from the database.
* Introduced a new capability to activate the option 'aifs_log_all_ca_server_response' by accessing the following URL (login required): 
http://www.example.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=auto_install_free_ssl&log_all_ca_server_response=yes    (Please replace 'www.example.com' with your domain name.)

= 3.6.1 =
* Fixed the issue with character encoding for sending automated email notifications to support multilingual characters.
* Added feature to write Let's Encrypt server response details in the log files for every API call (if the option 'aifs_log_all_ca_server_response' is set to true). This will be helpful for troubleshooting.
