## Descripció

Heartbeat Manager allows you to optimize your WordPress site’s performance by limiting
or completely disabling the Heartbeat API calls.

The WordPress Heartbeat API uses AJAX calls (`admin-ajax.php`) to provide real-time
information, such as when other users are editing a post or to show real-time notifications(
like in WooCommerce). While useful, on many sites, especially E-commerce stores 
with high traffic, these frequent calls can put a significant strain on the server’s
CPU.

This plugin allows you to granularly control this behavior via a simple settings
card in **Settings > Heartbeat Manager**.

**Key Features:**

 * **Backend Frequency Control:** Increase or manage the «beat» interval while inside
   the WordPress Admin Dashboard.
 * **Flexible Frontend Management:** Choose whether to keep the Heartbeat API active
   on the public site or disable it completely.
 * **Integrated Testing Guide:** Includes a built-in step-by-step Vademecum in the
   sidebar to verify your settings via browser Developer Tools.
 * **Lightweight & Translation Ready:** Clean, lightweight code that is fully internationalized
   and ready for translation using the standard `levelnetwork-heartbeat-manager`
   text-domain.

Developed by sonofgod80 (LevelNetwork.it) to maximize site fluidity.

## Instal·lació

 1. Upload the `levelnetwork-heartbeat-manager` folder to the `/wp-content/plugins/`
    directory.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress.
 3. Go to **Settings > Heartbeat Manager** to configure the values.

## PMF

### Will disabling the Heartbeat API break my site?

No, it will not break your site’s core layout. However, completely disabling it 
on the frontend might affect real-time updates from third-party plugins that rely
on it (e.g., live notification badges or certain real-time WooCommerce cart dynamic
updates). If you notice issues, you can change the setting from «Disabled» to a 
higher time interval (e.g., 60 or 120 seconds).

### What is the recommended setting for an E-commerce store?

For maximum performance under high traffic, we highly recommend setting the Backend
interval to 60 or 120 seconds, and setting the Frontend to «Disabled». This drastically
reduces the number of background AJAX requests (`admin-ajax.php`) hitting your server.

### Why do I get an «Uncaught ReferenceError» or «undefined» error when testing the frontend in the browser console?

This is completely normal and actually a good sign! WordPress does not load the 
Heartbeat script on the public frontend by default. If you see this error, it means
neither your theme nor any active plugins are currently triggering the Heartbeat
API on your public pages. Your frontend is already naturally optimized and completely
free of these background AJAX hits. The frontend custom interval setting will only
apply if an asset explicitly requests the Heartbeat script.

## Registre de canvis

#### 1.0.2

 * Tweak: Raised the minimum allowed interval for the Backend Frequency to 30 seconds(
   previously 15) to prevent accidental server CPU spikes from overly aggressive
   polling.
 * Docs: Updated the Plugin Vademecum & Testing Guide to clarify that frontend testing
   is only applicable when the theme or another plugin actively enqueues the Heartbeat
   API.

#### 1.0.1

 * Enhancement: Fully internationalized (i18n ready) with default language set to
   English.
 * Enhancement: Added a comprehensive step-by-step «Plugin Vademecum & Testing Guide»
   section in the admin sidebar.
 * Fix: Completely refactored prefixing (changed short `hm_` to unique `lnhm_`) 
   across all constants, options, classes, and variables to ensure 100% compliance
   with WordPress.org guidelines and avoid collisions.
 * Fix: Greatly improved logic for handling frontend heartbeat intervals (disabling
   via inline script, changing frequency via standardized localization).
 * Fix: Added missing escaping (`esc_attr`, `esc_html`) and proper sanitization (`
   intval`) for better security.
 * Feature: Added «Settings» and «Donate» links directly beneath the plugin name
   in the plugins list.
 * Dev: Cleaned up CSS and separated layout structures to avoid class name conflicts
   with WordPress core.

#### 1.0.0

 * Initial release.
 * Granular heartbeat control and dedicated UI.
