=== Persicus Access & Utility ===
Requires at least: 6.0
Requires PHP: 7.4
Stable tag: 0.8.12
License: GPLv2 or later

Rank-based page protection, protected sections, secure downloads with public preview images, and visible member status.

Version 0.8.12 adds Status and Resource Group filters to the Persicus Resources administrator list. Administrators can show only drafts, only one group, or combine both filters.

Version 0.8.11 adds a layered three-card 16:9 slider presentation with a timed white-cover transition and an administrator-only protected-download security report under Persicus Downloads. The centre frame becomes white, changes behind the cover, and fades into the new slide. Larger side cards overlap behind the centre card and act as invisible previous/next controls on desktop; mobile displays one card. The report records actual delivered, denied, and unavailable protected-file requests without storing tokens, direct paths, wallet addresses, API keys, or raw IP addresses.

Requires Persicus Member Connection 0.2.0 or newer.

Import / Export:
Use Persicus Resources > Import / Export to transfer Resources, Groups,

Protected file contents and credentials are deliberately excluded.

Ranks are cumulative: a higher rank always includes access granted to lower ranks.

Persicus Resources provide one reusable card for text, picture, music, video,
and download entries. Resources can be free, verified-member-only, or require
a cumulative minimum rank. Resource Groups create reusable card grids.

Internal Page / Link resources can optionally display their destination page's
title, featured image, excerpt, and last-30-day Independent Analytics views.
Groups can optionally sort these internal pages by views. Existing saved Resource
content remains untouched. Separate checkboxes control analytics ranking and whether
the destination page's title, image, and excerpt are displayed.
