Changelog / Improved Validation for Opt-In Redirection URLs

Improved Validation for Opt-In Redirection URLs

Our SDK Integration page from the Developer Dashboard allows you to configure various settings to tailor the Opt-In experience as per the behavior of your plugin.

One such option is to enter a redirection path that triggers after the plugin activation. When enabled, the SDK ensures the user is redirected to the specified URL after the Opt-In is completed.

However, we noticed a bug where makers could mistakenly enter the redirection URL in absolute form instead of relative form. This often happened when the full URL was copy-pasted directly from the browser without stripping the unnecessary parts. As a result, the SDK integration and Opt-In flow could break.

Freemius WP SDK activation redirection option

To fix this, we’ve now updated our UI to strictly accept only relative URLs for Opt-In redirection. This ensures consistency and prevents accidental misconfigurations.
