OverBooked 2.5.2

Maintenance release: removes the last of the leftover upstream (BoxyStudio) code and branding from the "Booked" fork.

📥 Install

Download overbooked.zip below, then Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin. The archive unpacks to overbooked/ and includes vendor/ and dist/, so it activates with no build step. Upgrading from 2.5.1 is a straight replace.

What changed in 2.5.2

• Removed a dead upstream support call. booked_get_kb_article() in includes/functions.php fetched help-article text from the original vendor's Ticksy API (api.ticksy.com/v1/boxystudio/…) with a hard-coded key, via an unguarded file_get_contents(). It was defined but called nowhere — verified across PHP, JS, templates and dynamic invocation — so removing it changes no behaviour while dropping an external network call and a bundled third-party key.
• Scrubbed residual vendor branding (name, email, URLs) from bundled translation files (.po / .pot / .mo). These were inert — the add-on textdomains are never loaded and the source strings no longer exist — but they still carried the upstream vendor's details on disk. Existing Russian and Swedish translations were preserved byte-for-byte; only the branding was replaced.

A repo-wide search for the upstream vendor now returns nothing (outside vendor/).

Verified

• All 116 PHP files lint clean on PHP 8.3 and 8.4 (enforced by CI)
• The two recompiled .mo catalogs still parse as valid gettext, with every real translation preserved (checked against a backup — zero non-header changes)
• The packaged ZIP was extracted and re-checked: correct version, no vendor code or branding

Requirements

• WordPress 5.0+ (tested up to 6.8)
• PHP 8.3+
• Optional: WooCommerce for paid bookings
