Editing a link now requires permission to edit that specific post, not just posts in general. The block editor panel is given the meta key from PHP, so the lh_page_links_to_return_link_meta_key filter now applies to the editor too, and the panel’s strings are registered for translation. The redirect action name is derived from the plugin namespace (unchanged: lh_page_links_to_redirect_url). Removed unused code: write_log(), the debugging status filter, and the empty activation and deactivation hooks. Removed the Domain Path header, which pointed to a languages folder that does not exist. Added an index.php guard to the js folder. The on-disk readme.txt has been removed; readmes are now compiled from the portfolio documentation, which gained an overview, FAQ, and Hooks and filters page. The obsolete Add Page Link dialog, classic metabox instructions and screenshots, and the relative URL FAQ answer were deliberately dropped.

The link field accepts absolute http or https URLs only; an empty or invalid value is never saved, and clearing the field in the block editor removes the link instead of leaving an empty value behind. Previously the block editor saved an empty value on every post save, and because the sitemap exclusions only checked that the value existed, those posts and pages were wrongly hidden from the core XML sitemap and the LH HTML Sitemap. Both exclusions now skip empty and invalid values, and they no longer stop at five posts (get_posts defaulted to five). Relative links are no longer supported: they already failed validation, so no working redirect changes. Validation no longer does a DNS lookup on every request. The admin Link Url filter now treats empty values as having no link and keeps its selection after filtering. Also: the header now carries License, License URI, Requires at least and Requires PHP; plugin_version() reads the header; the editor script is versioned from it; the class_exists() wrapper and the unused rel2abs() helper are removed; admin output is escaped.
