Quietly log every track that scrolls past the player to a per-user
history (capped 500). A star button promotes the good ones to a
separate Favourites tab that doesn't age out. Each row has four
search-provider deep links so you can find the track on whichever
service you use.
Storage
Two new user_meta keys (separate from radio_state so frequent
inserts don't churn the player-state blob):
- radio_history — capped FIFO of last 500 played tracks
- radio_favourites — uncapped user-starred list
New page: Radio → History
- History tab: capped FIFO list, newest first.
- Favourites tab: starred tracks (uncapped).
- Each row: when (relative + full timestamp on hover) / station /
artist — title / four search links / favourite-star toggle.
- Filter by artist/title (live, client-side) + by station (dropdown).
- Clear history button (favourites preserved).
- Search providers: Spotify, YouTube, Apple Music, Bandcamp.
Deep-link URLs only — no API keys, no third-party JS.
Auto-logging during playback
fetchTrack (existing 30s SomaFM poll loop) now hands new tracks to
logTrackIfNew → POST to wp_ajax_radio_log_track. Dedup client-side
(lastLoggedSig) AND server-side (against last entry in user_meta).
Junk filtered server-side: (unknown) artist, missing artist/title.
New AJAX endpoints
- radio_log_track (nonce radio_save_state — player pages)
- radio_toggle_favourite (nonce radio_history — history page only)
- radio_clear_history (nonce radio_history — history page only)
Files
- radio.php (version, require new include, submenu page, asset
enqueue hook adds radio_page_radio-history, three AJAX endpoints,
three new localized strings)
- inc/history.php (NEW — storage helpers + admin page renderer)
- assets/css/radio.css (history table, toolbar, search-link pills,
favourite star, dark-theme overrides)
- assets/js/radio.js (logTrackIfNew wired into fetchTrack;
bindHistoryPage handles filter/favourite/clear)
- inc/about.php (history entry)
- CHANGELOG.md (full entry)
