  * Add - Add a read-only AutomateWoo Referrals program summary ability.
* Add - Automatically create a "Refer a friend" share page with the automatewoo_referrals_page shortcode on install.
* Add - Display the WooCommerce Admin activity panel and breadcrumbs on the Referrals admin pages.
* Add - Filter 'automatewoo/referrals/check_existing_customer_before_share' to skip the existing-customer order lookup on large stores.
* Add - Option to restrict referral coupon usage to invited email addresses only.
* Add - Validate and apply referral coupons on orders created from the admin interface.
* Add - Warn in the settings when WooCommerce coupons are disabled, since referral rewards require them.
* Add `{{ referral.friend_email }}` variable for referral workflows.
* Dev - Add test coverage for advocate-eligibility based on counted orders (failed/cancelled orders do not count).
* Dev - Add test coverage for referral privacy handling and option variable substitution.
* Dev - Add test coverage for the share form email-field autofill fix.
* Dev - Add translator comments to internationalized strings and enable the related PHPCS sniffs.
* Dev - Update vulnerable npm dependencies flagged by Dependabot.
* Fix - Add unique id attributes and WHATWG section-* autocomplete tokens to share page email inputs to prevent browser autofill from filling all fields with the same address.
* Fix - Backfill referral credit amount on payment failure for orders created before the AUTOM8-157 fix.
* Fix - Preserve line breaks in social share text for X and WhatsApp sharing.
* Fix - Re-deduct referral credits when a failed subscription renewal payment subsequently succeeds via automatic retry.
* Fix - Respect the store's tax display setting when calculating credit used in an order, so the deduction from the advocate's balance matches the discount shown to the customer.
* Fix - Set a default text colour for the share widget/page container so it stays legible on dark themes.
* Fix - Use order count instead of account existence to determine if an email belongs to an existing customer in the invite form, matching the validation logic already used in coupon and referral validation.
* Tweak - Improve performance of referral lookups for registered customers by querying the referrals table directly.
* Tweak - Reduce the default referral coupon code length from 10 to 6 characters for easier sharing.
* Tweak - Remove the compatibility declaration for the product editor beta, which is being retired in WooCommerce 11.0.
* Update - Declare compatibility with WordPress 7.0 while requiring WordPress 6.9 or newer.
* Update - Require WooCommerce 10.7+.
