Replaces the single "I'm registering as a parent or guardian" tick with "Just myself" / "On behalf of one or more students" / "Both". Radios, not checkboxes as the feedback put it: the three answers are mutually exclusive, and "both" only means anything as a third choice alongside the other two. The tick could only ever say whether there were children to add. It could not say whether the account holder was a student, so bookableStudents() always offered them their own name and any guardian could book themselves a lesson nobody meant to sell. "On behalf of" now records us_guardian_only and leaves them out of the picker. That flag is stored as the negative on purpose. Every account predating this choice is a bookable student, and absence has to keep meaning exactly that, or the picker would quietly stop offering people themselves on upgrade. setGuardianOnly() clears the key rather than writing 0, so "not set" stays the single spelling of "yes, a student". A guardian-only account with nobody linked to it is still offered itself — an empty picker is no way to book at all, and they can put the account right from the profile page. An unrecognised or absent value reads as "just myself": the choice that collects the least and grants the least. A missing radio must never be taken as "register these children". Bumps to 1.4.0. The account holder's own questions stay out of play whenever students are being added, "both" included — asking them there is #146. Verified the form in a headless browser across all three choices: which blocks show, which fields carry `required`, whether the account holder's question panel is disabled, which submit is offered, and that switching back to "just myself" leaves no hidden required field blocking submit.

Unsupervised Scheduler
A WordPress plugin for instructor/student lesson scheduling — private lessons and group classes — with offerings, intake questions, versioned policies, account registration, and online payments.
Version: 1.0.0 · Requires: WordPress 6.0+, PHP 8.1+ · License: GPL-2.0-or-later
Pre-release. The booking platform is being built feature-by-feature; see Implementation status below.
Overview
The plugin is organised package-by-domain under src/ (PSR-4
Unsupervised\Schedular\). Each domain owns its value objects, repositories,
REST endpoints, and admin/front-end controllers. All data access goes through
repository classes against custom {prefix}us_* tables; permissions are enforced
with WordPress capabilities, never role-name checks. There is no front-end
build step (vanilla JS/CSS in assets/).
Every feature has a spec in docs/features/ describing its data
model, REST API, classes, and tests. For contributor/architecture guidance see
CLAUDE.md.

Shortcodes
| Shortcode | Purpose |
|---|---|
[us_booking] |
Student calendar + private-lesson registration flow |
[us_group_classes] |
Browse and enrol in group classes |
[us_student_login] |
Front-end student login |
[us_student_register] |
Account registration — invite-based, or open self-signup with email confirmation + admin approval (accepts signup policies) |
REST API
All endpoints live under /wp-json/us-scheduler/v1/ (e.g. /offerings,
/availability, /bookings, /enrollments, /policies, /questions).
Permissions are enforced via permission_callback capability checks. See each
feature doc for the routes and required capabilities.
Roles & capabilities
Three custom roles — Studio Admin (us_studio_admin), Instructor
(us_instructor), and Student (us_student) — plus a user_has_cap filter
that grants every studio-admin capability to WordPress administrators, so the site
owner runs the studio without a separate role. Full capability matrix in
user-roles.md.
Installation
- Build a distributable zip (see Development):
composer build # -> dist/unsupervised-schedular-<version>.zip - In wp-admin: Plugins → Add New → Upload Plugin, choose the zip, install, and activate.
Activation creates the us_* database tables and registers the roles. CI also
publishes an installable zip artifact on every merge to main.
Development
composer install # install dependencies
composer test # PHPUnit (run after every change)
composer lint # PHPStan (level 6)
composer cs # PHPCS (WordPress coding standards)
composer cs:fix # auto-fix coding standards
composer build # build the plugin zip into dist/
# a single test file / single test
./vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Unit/Offering/OfferingRepositoryTest.php
./vendor/bin/phpunit --filter testInsertReturnsId
Tests use Brain\Monkey and Mockery to
stub WordPress and $wpdb without a full WP install. To run the plugin in a real
WordPress without Docker, wp-now works well: npx @wp-now/cli@latest start.
CI
Gitea Actions (.gitea/workflows/ci.yml) runs on every push and pull request:
lint (PHPCS), static-analysis (PHPStan), test (PHPUnit on PHP
8.1/8.2/8.3), and no-debug (rejects debug statements in src/). On merge to
main a build job publishes the installable plugin zip as an artifact.
