Changelog
Version 2.5.1 – 16th February 2026
- Improvement: Changed the “My Account Description” field in Custom Text settings from a single-line input to a textarea that properly supports HTML formatting.
- Improvement: Increased the priority of the shipping tax exemption filter to ensure compatibility with third-party shipping plugins (e.g. Canada Post Shipping) that may add rates at later priorities.
- Fix: Fixed an intermittent issue where tax exempt customers were still being charged VAT when placing an order, caused by the exemption session being prematurely reset during checkout updates.
- Fix: Fixed an issue where the AJAX exemption session update could silently fail due to strict nonce verification.
- Fix: Fixed an issue where the tax exemption meta box on order edit pages could be empty in some cases when exemption details exist.
