[us_account], or the Account block: the signed-in visitor's name, their email, a Sign out link, and — only when the account books for someone besides itself — the students it books for. A parent's first question on seeing "signed in as Grace" is whether this is the account their children's lessons are on. Two decisions worth naming. Signed out with no login page chosen, the block renders nothing. Its whole subject is the person signed in, which a stranger is not, and a bare "you are not signed in" in a site header is noise with no way to act on it. With a login page chosen it offers a Sign in link instead. The editor preview is populated regardless, so the block is never an invisible box to the person placing it. Signing out returns to the chosen login page, or to the current page when there is none. A block meant for a header should not also navigate someone somewhere when they use it; the login page wins when configured, because the page they were on may well be members-only. The name comes from UserName::format(), so the block never exposes a username the way display_name can. Also brings docs/features/editor-blocks.md back in step: it still described "four shortcodes" and had never listed the family block. Closes #142 Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <[email protected]>
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.

| Payment reporting (monthly per-instructor + HST + CSV) | payment-reporting.md | ✅ Implemented |
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.
