## Skildring

Changelogify is a comprehensive WordPress plugin that automatically tracks and generates
changelog releases from various event sources. It creates beautifully formatted 
changelogs with customizable sections (Added, Changed, Fixed, Removed, Security)
and provides multiple ways to display them on your site.

### Quick Start

 2.  * Upload `changelogify` to `/wp-content/plugins/` and activate it in WordPress
       Plugins.
 3. Configure Sources

     * Choose event sources (Simple History, WP Activity Log, or Native WordPress events).
 5. Generate Your First Release
 6.  * Go to Changelog  Generate Release.
     * Enter a version (e.g., `1.0.0`) and a date range (e.g., since last release),
       then click Generate.
     * Review the generated content and Publish.
 7. Display the Changelog
 8.  * Gutenberg block: add the “Changelog” block to any page/post and configure options.
     * Shortcode:
     * `wordpress
        [changelog limit="5" show_version="true" show_date="true"]

 * Archive: visit `/changelog/` to see all releases.

## Endringslogg

### 1.0.3
