Signup and the profile page now ask for a four-digit year between 1900 and the current year. Anything else — a short year, a full date, a year in the future — is discarded rather than stored, so a typo cannot leave a nonsense age on the record. The year lives in a new us_birth_year user meta rather than reusing us_date_of_birth, which would have left one key holding two formats. The old key is not migrated in bulk. Instead GuardianService handles it in two halves: birthYear() falls back to the year of the old date when the new key is absent, so a student added before this change still shows one, and setBirthYear() deletes the old date on every save. That deletion is what makes the fallback safe rather than merely tidy. Without it, clearing the birth year on a student who predates the change would leave the old date behind for the fallback to read straight back, and the year could never be cleared at all. Stored in user meta, so no Schema.php change and no USC_VERSION bump. Closes #147 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.

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.
