[1.3] - 2025-01-10

Added

• Regenerate Secret Key button on the Settings page, which creates a new random 32-character key and updates the plugin’s secret key option automatically.
• Poster Image Support in the Elementor widget, allowing an uploaded image to appear as a thumbnail before playback.

Improved

• Updated the default Protected Base URL to https://contactcustody.kcdev.site/ppv/ (can be changed under plugin settings).
• Minor UI enhancements for the settings page layout.

Fixed

• N/A (no known bugs from the previous version).

Note:

• If you have server-side checks (check_access.php or .htaccess scripts) using the old secret key, regenerating your key in the plugin will invalidate those links unless you also update the server-side code.
• The poster image is optional but recommended for a better user experience (otherwise some browsers show a blank or black screen).

Improved
