 == Changelog ==
 
+= 1.9.4 =
+* Moved the bird badge from the top-right of beeps to a small emblem at the bottom-left, opposite the Beep! wordmark.
+
+= 1.9.3 =
+* New header emblem: the Beep bird now marks the feed header where the X mark sits on X.
+
+= 1.9.2 =
+* YouTube links no longer display as raw hyperlinks above the video card - the card replaces the URL text (posts, replies, and quoted beeps).
+
+= 1.9.1 =
+* YouTube links in beeps, replies, and quoted beeps automatically render as a video card (thumbnail + play button; click to play inline). Supports youtube.com/watch, youtu.be, shorts, embed, and live URLs.
+
+= 1.9.0 =
+* Reply composer now supports full media: images (up to 4), GIFs, voice notes, quotes, and polls. The reply form has the same toolbar as the top-level composer.
+* Replies can be posted with media only — no text required (server gate mirrors the v1.8.1 post rule).
+* Reply polls live in a new {prefix}beep_reply_polls table; reply images/voice/GIF/quote-id live in comment meta (parallel to post meta).
+* Refactored the top-level composer into shared helpers (beep_render_media_previews, beep_render_quote_section, beep_render_poll_section, beep_render_compose_toolbar) used by both compose and reply forms.
+* New REST routes: POST /reply/{id}/media, DELETE /reply/{id}/media/{attachment_id}, POST /reply/{id}/voice, POST /reply/{id}/gif, POST /reply/{id}/quote, POST /reply/{id}/poll.
+* Beep_Media got parent-agnostic wrappers (handle_upload_for_parent, handle_voice_upload_for_parent, remove_image_from_parent) — upload pipeline now reused for posts and comments.
+
+= 1.8.1 =
+* Image-only / media-only posts: you can now post images, GIFs, voice notes, quotes, or polls without typing any words. The Beep button enables automatically when any attachment is present (server-side too — empty content + no attachments still returns empty_content).
+* The composer button refreshes whenever media is added or removed (images, voice, GIF, quote, poll).
+
 = 1.8.0 =
 * Twitter-style feed: the timeline now shows only top-level beeps; clicking a beep (or its reply count) opens the full conversation in a modal with working reply forms, likes, and nested threads.
 * Light theme + auto mode: theme="auto|dark|light" shortcode attribute; auto follows the visitor's system preference.
