External services
This plugin connects to the OpenAI API for two optional features: the Wine AI Assistant, and reading a wine label from a photo. Neither works until you add your own OpenAI API key under ”Wine AI Settings”, and nothing is sent before then.
The Wine AI Assistant sends your question together with the list of wines in your cellar (name, vintage, winery and quantity). Reading a label sends the photo you choose, resized in your browser before it leaves the site. No other data is transmitted, and the plugin stores nothing on OpenAI’s side.
Requests go to https://api.openai.com and are billed to your own OpenAI account.

Ändringslogg
3.4.0
- Fixed: the Location column in the wine list always showed ”No location”, whatever was stored. Location is a custom field, but the column was reading it as a taxonomy. Your saved values were never lost — only the reading was wrong — and sorting by Location now works too.
- Much faster on larger cellars, in two places. The wine list by type used to run one unbounded query per wine type plus extra lookups for every single wine: on a 200-bottle cellar that was 226 database queries, now 7, and the number no longer grows with the collection. The public wine menu was also re-reading every wine from the database on each page load even when its cache was warm; that is now gone too.
- Fixed: sorting the wine list by a custom field quietly dropped every wine that had no value for it. All wines are kept now, and numeric fields sort as numbers — bottle size no longer puts 150 before 75.
- New field: bottle size in centilitres, available on the wine screen and as a sortable column, so half bottles and magnums are visible at a glance.
- Grape varieties and bottle size can now be shown in the public wine menu. Both are off by default: turn them on under the plugin settings.
- Fixed several untranslatable strings that mixed English with your language, such as ”No location”.
- New: add a wine by photographing its label. The label is read for producer, vintage, denomination, region, grape variety, bottle size and alcohol content, and the photo can be kept as the wine image; you fill in quantity and location before saving. If the bottle is already in your cellar the plugin says so and offers to raise its count instead of creating a second entry — matching on producer, vintage and bottle size, so a magnum stays a separate entry from the 0.75. Off unless you have configured an OpenAI API key, and each photo is a request billed to your own account.
- Fixed: the charts library on the Statistics page was loaded from an external CDN. It now ships with the plugin, so the page keeps working offline and your visits are no longer visible to a third party.
- Hardening and tidying throughout: the internal redirect now uses the safe variant, form and filter input is unslashed and sanitized consistently, admin scripts and styles are versioned so browsers pick up updates, and a leftover debug line that wrote to the error log on every stock movement has been removed.
- Tested up to WordPress 7.1.
