Per-Post Control

You can exclude individual posts or pages from auto-posting using the checkbox in the meta box in the post/page editor. This allows you to control which content is posted to Mastodon without disabling auto-posting globally.

Analytics & Statistics

The Analytics tab provides detailed statistics for your Mastodon posts:

  • Aggregated statistics (total posts, replies, reblogs, favourites, views)
  • Average statistics per post
  • Individual post statistics with detailed metrics
  • Boost statistics (separate metrics for boosted posts)
  • Data is cached for 5 minutes to reduce API calls

Extended Emoji Picker

The plugin includes an extended emoji picker with over 2000 Unicode emojis:

  • Categorized emojis for various domains (business, IT/SEO, medical, construction, news, etc.)
  • Lazy-loading mechanism for better performance
  • Quick access toolbar in the template editor
  • "Load More Emojis" function to load all available emojis

Security Features

  • Password-type input field for access tokens with show/hide toggle
  • All user inputs are sanitized and validated
  • All outputs are properly escaped to prevent XSS attacks
  • No SQL injection vulnerabilities (uses WordPress APIs only)
  • No remote command execution risks

UX Improvements

  • Connection status indicator (green/yellow/red) in settings page header for both accounts (primary and boost)
  • "Send test post to Mastodon" button to verify configuration
  • Empty state messages for empty queues
  • Loading states (spinners) for all asynchronous actions
  • Help tooltips for complex fields (access token, template, visibility, language)
  • Modern CSS styling with cards, info boxes, status indicators, and stats grids across all tabs
