## Description

Eloquent is an awesome front-end editor for your website. Edit posts and pages directly
from your website front-end!

It is not a full-featured editor like the WordPress editor in the admin panel, but
it is a great solution for your not-too-tech-savvy clients to quickly edit existing
posts and pages, right where they see them.

Features:
 * Edit post/page title and content directly on the front end, with the
same rich-text tools ContentTools provides * Upload images straight to the WordPress
Media Library – rotate and crop before inserting, no separate media step * Pick 
which of your theme’s own CSS classes are offered as one-click styles in the editor,
curated from Settings / Eloquent * Autodetect title/content selectors for your active
theme, so there’s nothing to hand-configure on a typical site * Draft support – 
unpublished entries can be edited and published straight from the front end

## Installation

 1. Upload the plugin files to the `/wp-content/plugins/eloquent` directory, or install
    the plugin through the WordPress plugins screen directly.
 2. Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ screen in WordPress.
 3. Use the Settings -> Eloquent screen to configure the plugin: set up title/content
    selectors (or use Autodetect) and pick which theme CSS classes to offer in the 
    editor.
 4. Enjoy using Eloquent!

## FAQ

### How do I upload images to the WordPress media library?

Use the image tool in the front-end editor – it uploads straight into your Media
Library, the same place block-editor uploads go. Rotate and crop it before inserting;
there’s nothing extra to configure.

### The Autodetect option isn’t detecting selectors, what do I do?

Set the selectors manually on the Settings / Eloquent screen. Use your browser’s“
Inspect element” tool on your theme’s post title and content area to find their 
CSS classes.

### Can I choose which CSS classes are available in the editor?

Yes. The “Editor styles” section on Settings / Eloquent lets you scan your site 
for classes your theme already uses (or add one manually), then pick which ones 
appear as one-click styles in the element properties dialog.

### I changed my theme and the editor stopped showing up, why?

Different themes use different CSS classes for the title and content area, so Eloquent
needs to re-detect (or be told) the new selectors. You’ll see an admin notice after
a theme switch linking straight to the settings screen.

Handy front-end editor. It would be better to add several functions if possible:
Directly create a new article editor in the front end Category can be selected

## Changelog

#### 1.0

 * Fixed a bug where saving through the editor stripped Gutenberg’s block markers,
   breaking the block editor on any post edited through Eloquent
 * Images now upload to the WordPress Media Library instead of being embedded as
   base64 data in post content; rotate and crop are handled server-side
 * Added a curated CSS class picker (“Editor styles”) so theme classes can be applied
   to elements from inside the editor
 * Fixed autodetection: the placeholder entry it creates is previewed rather than
   opened directly, so it no longer 404s on the front end
 * Moved front-end save/publish/selector actions to the REST API, with proper capability
   checks and nonces
 * Bundled SweetAlert2 locally instead of loading it from a CDN
 * Updated ContentTools to 1.6.16
 * General code cleanup and hardening (capability checks, output escaping, translatable
   strings)

#### 0.2

 * Updated SweetAlert
 * Updated ContentEditor

#### 0.1
