3.0.0

Breaking Changes
Generation of settings_name in v2.0.0 was using namespacing as part of the generation, but this included full paths, so it made the settings_name long. Settings name can now be configured manually, but will fallback to plugin_name_settings as the generation no longer handles namespaces. If you use v2.0.0 you will need to migrate your plugin's config to pass your setting name. The default is fine for non published plugins, but for published plugins you should include your company/name to prevent conflicts such as test_plugin_settings_polyplugins instead of the default test_plugin_settings. We are also working on a new boilerplate which includes an Admin class that handles generation of your plugin settings so you can just drop in the admin class and not worry about having to define this for each plugin. The boilerplate is also going to have a Utils class which will have a static method for getting options to make it easier to fetch options outside the Settings class.

2.0.0

Breaking Changes
This version contains breaking changes from previous versions. We aimed to preserve full backward compatibility, but doing so would have added unnecessary complexity and made the codebase harder to maintain. Instead, we’re limiting potential breaking changes to major releases only. This update simplifies the foundation and makes it possible to support features like sub-fields within sub-tabs in the future. You will need to migrate your plugins to this version manually and test for compatibility. The main change is adding icons to navigation tabs. You'll need to update your fields property to account for this. For example:

$this->fields = array(
      'general' => array(
          array(
            'name'     => __('Enabled', $this->plugin_slug),
            'type'     => 'switch',
            'default'  => false,
          ),

You would need to move your options under the fields key like this:

$this->fields = array(
      'general' => array(
        'icon' => 'gear-fill',
        'fields' => array(
          array(
            'name'     => __('Enabled', $this->plugin_slug),
            'type'     => 'switch',
            'default'  => false,
          ),

You can also exclude the 'icon' key if you don't want to use icons, but if you want to use icons you can pull it from Bootstrap Icons.

The easiest way to install Settings Class for WordPress is via composer within your /wp-content/plugins/test-plugin/ directory:
