ranger 431c31a95b fix: Restore button now sends you to Active tab where the note lives (v3.4.1)
After v3.4.0 introduced the Active/Completed tab strip, clicking
Restore on a completed note appeared to do nothing — the restored
note never showed up. David: "the complete log does not return
to active."

Root cause: the Restore handler in wp_notes_page_callback() was
the only action handler without a wp_redirect() + exit; after its
update_option() calls. Every other handler (new note, mark-as-done
single, mark-as-done bulk) had one. So Restore relied on the page
falling through and re-rendering, which used to work when both
Active and Completed sections rendered on the same page (user
could glance up to see the restored note in the Active section).

v3.4.0's single-pane tab render exposed the latent bug: after
Restore, the URL still says ?tab=completed, so only Completed
re-renders (minus the now-restored note), and the restored note
is invisible on Active.

Fix: add the missing redirect to admin.php?page=wp-notes (defaults
to Active tab) after the restore completes. The restored note now
appears in its new home immediately.

Patch bump — bug fix only, no API or behavioural changes beyond
the fix itself. Other handlers, storage model, tab structure, and
CSS are unchanged.

ranger c5d8a34296 feat: Active/Completed tabs on My Log page (v3.4.0)
Replaces the two stacked sections (Active above, Completed below)
on the main Logbook page with a single-pane WP-admin tabbed view
using the native subsubsub pattern (same as Posts/Comments/Plugins).

- Two tabs: Active (N) | Completed (M) with live counts
- URL-driven state via ?tab=active|completed; bookmarkable,
  refresh-stable, back-button works, invalid values fall back to
  Active server-side via whitelist + sanitize_key
- No JavaScript — each tab is a hyperlink built with add_query_arg
- WP-admin core CSS handles .subsubsub + .current; only a small
  margin block added in wp-notes-styles.php
- Single-pane render: only the selected tab's section is in the
  DOM, so no flash-of-wrong-content
- "Add a Note" form stays visible on both tabs for UI consistency

Flagged in the 2026-05-25 UX audit as the highest-payoff next move
(Tier 3 item #7). When the v4 timer/time_logged field ships, the
structure can extend to 3 tabs (TODO/IN PROGRESS/Completed) in
the same place; without it, an IN PROGRESS tab would always be
empty, so v3.4.0 ships the 2-tab version matching the current
data model.

Storage model unchanged — Active and Completed remain in their
separate options (wp_notes, wp_done_notes). The
wp_notes_display_notes($type) function is unchanged.

MINOR bump: new feature, no breaking changes.

ranger bd8c5f2340 ux: replace generic cog admin-menu icon with closed-book (v3.3.5)
The WordPress admin sidebar showed "Logbook" with the generic
cog wheel icon (dashicons-admin-generic) — fine for a settings
page, off-brand for a plugin whose entire identity is "logbook".

Swapped to dashicons-book-alt (closed book) — the most literal
possible match in the Dashicons set, and visually reinforces the
brand at the first place users see the plugin every day.

Alternatives also viable (commented in the changelog for future
reference): dashicons-edit (pencil), dashicons-clipboard,
dashicons-welcome-write-blog, dashicons-format-aside.

VERSION
- wp-notes.php header 3.3.4 → 3.3.5
- WP_NOTES_VERSION constant 3.3.4 → 3.3.5
- About page version-history leads with v3.3.5; v3.3.4 demoted.

ranger ead5bbcd2c release: 3.3.3 → 3.3.4 — rename Gitea repo a-wp-notes-v3 → a-logbook
The repo's old name was a holdover from the v3-of-A-WP-Notes
archival era. With the plugin firmly identifying as "Logbook" now,
the repo and the local working folder should match.

CHANGES IN-CODE
- inc/wp-notes-updater.php: WP_NOTES_GITEA_REPO constant
  a-wp-notes-v3 → a-logbook. Update checker now hits
  https://git.davidtkeane.com/api/v1/repos/ranger/a-logbook/...
  on every check. Override-able via define() in wp-config.php if
  the repo ever moves again.
- inc/wp-notes-about.php: "View the full CHANGELOG.md →" link on
  the version-history card now points at the new repo path.
- Local working folder on M3 renamed
  /Users/ranger/scripts/Gitea/a-wp-notes-v3-archive → a-logbook.
  .git/config survived; remote URL will be updated separately.

UNCHANGED (zero-migration commitment continues)
- Plugin slug 'wp-notes'.
- Plugin text domain 'a-wp-notes'.
- All wp_notes_* function names, WP_NOTES_* constants, DB option
  keys, user_meta keys, file names inside the plugin folder.
- Historical CHANGELOG references to a-wp-notes-v3 stay as
  truthful history of the v3.2.0 era.

VERSION BUMP
- wp-notes.php header Version: 3.3.3 → 3.3.4
- WP_NOTES_VERSION constant: 3.3.3 → 3.3.4
- About page version-history leads with v3.3.4; v3.3.3 demoted.

ranger e51b087545 release: 3.3.2 → 3.3.3 — verification bump to test the "Check now" flow end-to-end
Pure version increment with no functional changes. Lets David's
Local install (currently on v3.3.2) hit the "Check now" button in
Settings → Updates and verify the panel correctly reports a real
version delta — should render "v3.3.3 available — Download .zip"
with a working download link to the source archive on Gitea.

After the test passes, `git pull` brings the local install to
v3.3.3 and the same panel should flip back to "You are up to date
(v3.3.3)".

VERSION
- wp-notes.php header 3.3.2 → 3.3.3
- WP_NOTES_VERSION constant 3.3.2 → 3.3.3
- About page version-history leads with v3.3.3 as latest (with a
  cheeky "if you can see this line, you successfully pulled the
  test release" note); v3.3.2 demoted to previous entry.

## [3.4.1] — 2026-05-27
### Fixed — Restore button now sends you to the Active tab where the restored note lives
After v3.4.0 introduced the Active/Completed tab strip, clicking **Restore** on a completed note appeared to "do something" but the restored note never showed up. David reported it as *"the complete log does not return to active."*
Root cause: the Restore action handler in `wp_notes_page_callback()` (line ~1340) was the **only** action handler in the file without a `wp_redirect() + exit;` after its `update_option()` calls — every other handler (new note, mark-as-done single, mark-as-done bulk) had one. So Restore was relying on the page falling through and re-rendering, which used to work when both Active and Completed sections rendered on the same page (the user could just glance up to see the restored note in the Active section). v3.4.0's single-pane tab render exposed the latent bug: after Restore, the URL still said `?tab=completed`, so only Completed re-rendered (minus the now-restored note), and the restored note was invisible on Active.
Fix: add the missing redirect to `admin.php?page=wp-notes` (which defaults to the Active tab) after the restore completes. The restored note now appears in its new home immediately.
### Files changed
- `wp-notes.php``wp_notes_page_callback()` Restore handler: added `wp_redirect(admin_url('admin.php?page=wp-notes')); exit;` after the two `update_option()` calls. Five-line change plus a load-bearing comment explaining the bug history so future-Claude doesn't reintroduce it.
- Plugin header `Version: 3.4.0 → 3.4.1`; `WP_NOTES_VERSION` constant updated to match. PATCH bump (bug fix, no API or behavioural changes beyond the fix itself).
### Not changed
- The other three action handlers (new note, mark-as-done) — they already had correct redirects; no need to touch.
- Storage model, tab structure, CSS — all unchanged from v3.4.0.

## [3.4.0] — 2026-05-27
### Added — Active / Completed tabs on the My Log page
The main Logbook page used to render two stacked sections — Active notes from `wp_notes` above, Completed notes from `wp_done_notes` below. As the lists grew, this became a "wall of stacked sections" with Completed pushing content off the visible fold and users having to scroll past it to scan their active work.
v3.4.0 replaces the stacked layout with a **single-pane tabbed view** using WordPress's native `subsubsub` filter-tab pattern (the same one Posts / Comments / Plugins admin pages use):
- **Two tabs**: `Active (N)` and `Completed (M)`. Counts in the labels match the actual list lengths.
- **URL-driven state**: `?page=wp-notes&tab=active` (default) and `?page=wp-notes&tab=completed`. Bookmarkable, refresh-stable, back-button works. Invalid tab values fall back to Active server-side.
- **No JavaScript**: each tab is a hyperlink. WP-admin core CSS handles the `.subsubsub` and `.current` styling; we just add a small top/bottom margin block.
- **Single-pane render**: only the selected tab's section is in the DOM, so no flash-of-wrong-content and no wasted markup.
- **"Add a Note" form stays visible on both tabs** — even from Completed you can think of something new to log.
This was flagged in the 2026-05-25 UX audit as the highest-payoff next move (Tier 3 item #7). When the v4 roadmap's timer / `time_logged` field ships, the tab structure can extend naturally to three tabs (TODO / IN PROGRESS / Completed) in the same place; for now, without that field, an IN PROGRESS tab would always be empty, so v3.4.0 ships the 2-tab version that matches the current data model.
### Files changed
- `wp-notes.php``wp_notes_page_callback()`: tab detection from `$_GET['tab']` (sanitized + whitelisted), `subsubsub` markup with link-builder via `add_query_arg`, single-pane conditional render of either the active or completed section. Replaces the previous two-stacked-section block.
- `inc/wp-notes-styles.php` — minor spacing (`margin: 12px 0 18px`) on `.subsubsub` so the tab strip has breathing room.
- Plugin header `Version: 3.3.5 → 3.4.0`; `WP_NOTES_VERSION` constant updated to match. MINOR bump (new feature, no breaking changes).
### Not changed
- Storage model — Active and Completed remain in their separate options (`wp_notes`, `wp_done_notes`).
- The `wp_notes_display_notes($type)` function in `inc/wp-notes-display.php` — already accepts the section type, no signature change needed.
- No new DB writes, schema changes, AJAX endpoints, or dependencies.

## [3.3.5] — 2026-05-25
### Changed — Admin-menu icon
The WordPress admin sidebar icon for Logbook is now
**`dashicons-book-alt`** (a closed book) instead of the generic
cog wheel (`dashicons-admin-generic`). The closed-book glyph is the
most literal possible match for the word "logbook" in the Dashicons
set — reinforces the brand identity at the first place users see
the plugin every day.
If you'd prefer a different icon, the line lives in
`wp-notes.php → wp_notes_admin_menu()` as the 7th arg to
`add_menu_page()`. Alternatives worth considering:
`dashicons-edit` (pencil), `dashicons-clipboard` (clipboard),
`dashicons-welcome-write-blog` (pencil over paper),
`dashicons-format-aside` (notes glyph). Full list at
https://developer.wordpress.org/resource/dashicons/
### Version bump
- wp-notes.php header 3.3.4 → 3.3.5
- WP_NOTES_VERSION constant 3.3.4 → 3.3.5
- About page version-history leads with v3.3.5; v3.3.4 demoted.

## [3.3.4] — 2026-05-25
**Repo renamed on Gitea: `a-wp-notes-v3` → `a-logbook`.** Also the
local working folder on M3: `/Users/ranger/scripts/Gitea/a-logbook`
(was `a-wp-notes-v3-archive`). The old repo name was a holdover
from the v3-of-A-WP-Notes archival era; with the plugin firmly
identifying as Logbook now, the repo and folder names should match.
### Changed
- **`inc/wp-notes-updater.php`** — `WP_NOTES_GITEA_REPO` constant
updated from `a-wp-notes-v3` to `a-logbook`. The update checker
now hits `https://git.davidtkeane.com/api/v1/repos/ranger/a-logbook/...`
on every check. (The constant remains override-able via
`define()` in `wp-config.php` if the repo ever moves again.)
- **`inc/wp-notes-about.php`** — "View the full CHANGELOG.md →"
link on the version-history card updated to the new repo path.
- **Local working folder on M3** renamed to `a-logbook` to match
the Gitea repo name. `.git/config` survived the move intact;
remote URL updated separately.
### Unchanged (zero-migration commitment continues)
- Plugin slug (`wp-notes`).
- Plugin text domain (`a-wp-notes`).
- All internal function names, constants (`WP_NOTES_*`), DB option
keys, user_meta keys, file names inside the plugin
(`wp-notes.php`, `inc/wp-notes-*.php`).
- Historical CHANGELOG references to `a-wp-notes-v3` (e.g. in the
v3.2.0 entry) stay as historical truth.

## [3.3.3] — 2026-05-25
**Verification bump.** Pure version increment to test the end-to-end
"Check now" flow against the now-publicly-hosted Gitea repo. No
functional changes. David's Local install (running v3.3.2) should
now see *"v3.3.3 available — Download .zip"* in the Settings →
Updates panel once "Check now" is clicked, confirming the update
mechanism works against a real version delta. After the test, he
can `git pull` to land on v3.3.3 and watch the same panel flip back
to *"You are up to date (v3.3.3)"*.
