modal, theatre, fullscreen, registration and form options. Campaign tracking is also
passed to CamSoda embeds and model URLs.

Chaturbate whitelabel users can now choose a custom service term name to display instead of Chaturbate across the website.

Added support for the new official Stripcash Player for Stripchat aggregator websites. It is now available as a third playback mode alongside the normal embed and HLS player.
The new player passes the model username as modelName and the configured
Stripchat affiliate code as userId for affiliate attribution.
Stripchat has announced that direct HLS streams will stop working on aggregator websites after 31 August 2026. The HLS player option remains temporarily available for migration compatibility but is now clearly marked as deprecated.
Stripchat HLS thumbnail hover previews remain enabled in this release. A later PluginCams and theme update will remove Stripchat HLS hover support when the migration is completed.
Added Stripcash Player rendering to normal webcam singles, Generic Module output, JSON fallback integrations and supported WP-Script compatibility helpers.
Added theme-aware JSON fallback rendering for Theme Pro and CamGrid so deleted webcam permalinks keep the native visual structure of each theme.

Improved Generic Module CSS isolation, independent Font Awesome loading and file timestamp cache busting for module CSS and player resize assets.
Added a new Chaturbate New Embed option for the CAM ONLY interactive embed format, while keeping the legacy embed available for compatibility.
The Generic Module now supports the new Chaturbate embed format, making it compatible with random WordPress themes that rely on PluginCams shortcode output.
The Chaturbate settings card now explains that New Embed requires the CAM ONLY tour code from Chaturbate’s “Cam Selection: Embed Your Chat Room” tool.
→ Important: using another tour code may show random cams instead of the selected chatroom.
Corrected iframe URL output so Chaturbate New Embed parameters are printed cleanly and the selected chatroom loads correctly.
Settings accordions now remember their open or closed state using localStorage, improving navigation in the PluginCams admin screen.
Added a dedicated JSON Fallback AutoCleaner to remove old fallback JSON files independently from database posts.
JSON fallback files are now stored by provider/site, making it easier to clean only selected providers such as Stripchat.
Added tools to help remove Stripchat fallback JSON files for models that have not appeared again within the configured threshold, such as 30 days or less.
Fallback JSON snapshots are refreshed when webcam posts are updated, allowing the cleaner to detect when a model has not appeared again for the configured number of days.
The PluginCams settings interface has been redesigned with cleaner cards, modern toggles, improved provider cards, better buttons, and a more responsive admin header.
Fixed an issue where taxonomy grids generated by shortcodes could stay on the first page instead of loading the selected paginated result page.
Pagination now correctly respects the selected page when PluginCams automatically injects shortcode-based taxonomy grids.
Added support for SinParty, including import, affiliate tracking, redirect, embed support and theme compatibility updates.
A small adjustment was made to improve compatibility when custom category permalinks or filters use numeric values.
→ Impact: helps prevent conflicts in setups where category-related URLs or filters rely on numbers.
Fixed outbound BongaCams affiliate profile links so the required
models[] brackets are preserved correctly in generated URLs.
→ Impact: profile URLs now open the intended model page instead of redirecting users to the homepage.

→ Impact: same options, better organization and a more polished experience.
Several internal functions were refactored and cleaned up to improve maintainability, structure clarity and long-term scalability of the codebase.

Core files have been reorganized and partially modularized to improve maintainability, structure clarity and long-term scalability of the plugin.
→ Impact: no visual changes, but cleaner architecture for future updates.
Fixed an issue where CAM4 whitelabel profile links could fail to open properly or cause redirect inconsistencies. Profiles now load directly and reliably.
→ Action required: update PluginCams to 4.6.4 to ensure CAM4 whitelabel links work correctly.
Fixes slow-loading Stripchat HLS streams in Chrome desktop (after the latest browser update)
by starting the main embed muted with autoplay, playsinline and preload enabled.
This matches the behaviour of the hover previews and makes streams start instantly again.
→ Compatibility: behaviour remains correct in Safari and Edge.
→ Action required: update PluginCams to 4.6.3 to ensure Stripchat streams load instantly in Chrome.
Minor MU-plugin adjustment to correctly add the /cam slug to Streamate whitelabel external URLs in WP-Script themes.
