See [API usage examples](https://github.com/yellowtree/wp-geoip-detect/wiki/API-Usage-Examples) * ADD: New filter `geoip_detect2_shortcode_country_select_countries` for the country list of `[geoip_detect2_countries]` * ADD: New constant `GEOIP_DETECT_IP_EMPTY_CACHE_TIME` that can be used to specify a shorter cache time in case temporarily no external IP was found. * FIX: Compatibility with CF 4.6 (remove deprecated function call) * Maxmind vendor code was updated to the current version (2.4.5). = 2.6.0 = * ADD: New datasources for Cloudflare & Amazon AWS CloudFront (countries for current IP only). * ADD: Country information (names, lat/lon, continent, localized in the different languages) are now filled in for sources that only detect the country code (Cloudflare, Amazon, hostip.info) * ADD: 2 shortcodes for [Contact Form 7](https://wordpress.org/plugins/contact-form-7/) (a select with all countries `[geoip_detect2_countries mycountry]`, and tracking information for the email text `[geoip_detect2_user_info]`) - see [Documentation](https://github.com/yellowtree/wp-geoip-detect/wiki/API-Documentation#wp-contactform7-shortcodes) * FIX: Cron scheduling is checked every time you visit the plugin page. * FIX: Timezones of US & Canada are now detected more often (if country+state is known) * FIX: Shortcode didn't use current sitelang as default, but always english * Maxmind vendor code was updated to the current version (2.4.2). = 2.5.7 = * ADD: Shortcodes can now optionally specifiy the IP: `[geoip_detect2 property="country.isoCode" ip="(ipv4 or ipv6)"]` * ADD: Plugin is now translated into German. * FIX: `geoip_detect2_get_info_from_current_ip()` now also handles the case when REMOTE_ADDR contains multiple IP adresses = 2.5.6 = * FIX: Removed noticed concerning open_basedir. = 2.5.5 = * Clean-up changes to prepare plugin translation. * FIX: Only show the "no database installed" admin notice to admins (props @meitar) = 2.5.4 = * FIX: Manual datasource filepath handling corrected. * FIX: Potential incompability with BuddyPress removed. = 2.5.3 = * FIX: (Security) Add nonces to backend to avoid CSRF (thanks to Gerard Arall). * FIX: Do not use PHP shortcode tags (ipAddress * FIX: Hostip.info does not include data for IPv6.

(Useful in development scenarios without internet, or mixed internet/intranet cases. You can also use this to speed up things on the production server if you know the IP will not change.) * NEW: Hidden feature/side-effect: Clicking on save in the General Options section also empties the external IP cache. = 2.4.2 = * FIX: Trim whitespace of IP adress. * FIX: some PHP notices. * FIX: The Installation message "No database installed" failed to install the Maxmind database since 2.4.0 * NEW: Show IPv6-not-supported notice. * FIX: Add empty fallback functions in case the plugin requirements are not met.

You can check if the result is coming from the cache by checking $result->extra->cached (it is 0 when not cached, UNIX timestamp of cache event otherwise). * This also applies to the shortcode API (`[geoip_detect2 property="extra.cached" skip_cache="true"]`) * NEW: Error messages during lookup are now in `$record->extra->error`. * NEW: Experimental support for the Maxmind Precision API. * NEW: Shortcodes now also support fallback languages.
