## Description

If your website layout looks broken after a WordPress migration, host transfer, 
or plugin update, the cause is often that Brizy’s compiled HTML/CSS caches have 
fallen out of sync.

**Layout Recompiler for Brizy** solves this by triggering a clean recompilation 
of all pages built using Brizy.

This plugin does not include license checks, trials, paid feature locks, usage quotas,
or unlockable local features.

### Key Features

 * **AJAX-Based Execution**: Runs incrementally, compiling one page at a time. This
   keeps memory usage low and prevents common “500 Internal Server Error” or execution
   timeouts on low-memory servers (below 256MB).
 * **Careful Re-generation**: Uses your saved Brizy design data to refresh generated
   layouts. A recent backup is recommended before running site-wide changes.
 * **Real-time Logging**: Displays a detailed progress bar and status feed in your
   admin area to show successful compilations or skipped layout assets.

### Brizy Builder Dependency and Service Disclosure

This plugin requires Brizy Builder to be active while recompilation runs. It does
not add analytics or tracking.

Only after an administrator confirms recompilation, the plugin calls Brizy Builder’s
WordPress compiler classes. Brizy may send the page identifier, Brizy and Brizy 
Pro versions, compiler download URLs, and the editor configuration needed to compile
the layout to the compiler service configured by Brizy. The service returns generated
page, project-style, and global-block output that Brizy stores in WordPress. This
communication is provided and controlled by Brizy Builder rather than by this plugin.

### Resolving Collapsed Page Widths (Blocksy Companion Conflict)

The Layout Recompiler can fix instances where full-width pages have suddenly collapsed
to the default container width. If you are experiencing this layout issue due to
a conflict with Blocksy Companion, follow these steps:

 1. **Deactivate Blocksy Companion Premium** temporarily.
 2. Run the **Layout Recompiler** queue to completion (100%).
 3. Once finished, reactivate **Blocksy Companion Premium** and check the front-end
    of your site to see if the issue is resolved.

_Recommendations for Complex Sites_
 For highly complex websites, we recommend temporarily
disabling non-essential third-party plugins before running the recompilation process
to ensure a clean execution. However: * **WooCommerce Sites**: If your website uses
dynamic templates to generate shop pages, cart/checkout areas, or product queries,**
WooCommerce** and its essential related add-ons _must_ remain active. * **Dynamic
Fields (ACF)**: Similarly, if your layouts rely heavily on **Advanced Custom Fields(
ACF)** or other dynamic content engines to fetch database fields, those plugins 
_must_ remain enabled during recompilation.

## FAQ

### Is it safe to use?

The plugin uses Brizy’s own compiler to refresh generated page and global layout
output. It is designed to preserve saved designs, and keeping a recent backup provides
an easy restore point if another plugin or site configuration affects the result.

### What should I do after compiling?

Once the recompilation process is complete and you have verified that your layouts
are fixed, you can safely deactivate and delete the plugin. It does not need to 
run continuously.

Excellent plugin to keep in your arsenal if you migrate a site made with Brizy builder.
It did the magic on the first run.

Brizy Layout Recover is a lifesaver. It makes recovering lost or damaged Brizy layouts
quick and hassle-free. The plugin is lightweight, easy to use, and works exactly
as expected. I was able to restore my layouts within minutes without any complicated
steps. If you use Brizy regularly, this is a great utility to have. It can save 
hours of work and provides peace of mind when something goes wrong. Highly recommended
for any Brizy user.

## Changelog

#### 1.5.7

 * Corrects Brizy and Brizy Pro stylesheet and script URLs when translation plugins
   use language directories such as `/de/`, `/es/`, or `/fr/`.
 * Limits URL normalization to Brizy plugin assets and preserves query strings.

#### 1.5.6

 * Restricts direct recompilation to published Brizy pages and posts.
 * Prevents global blocks, headers, footers, saved sections, and layouts from being
   compiled as standalone records.
 * Keeps shared global-element updates within Brizy’s normal page compilation response.

#### 1.5.5

 * Adds per-item completion records to skip unchanged Brizy content on later runs.
 * Adds final manifest snapshots so shared global elements are recorded in their
   final compiled state.
 * Adds successful-run tracking and confirmation before recompilation begins.
 * Allows Brizy and Layout Recompiler for Brizy to be deactivated independently 
   while retaining runtime compatibility checks.
 * Some UI tweaks.

#### 1.5.2

 * Shows the optional review invitation only after the recompilation queue completes.
 * Improves the review invitation spacing and emphasizes the plugin name.

#### 1.5.1

 * Added a non-intrusive invitation on the plugin’s own Tools page to leave an honest
   WordPress.org review.

#### 1.5.0

 * Removed the missing-media scan and placeholder-repair tools so this plugin focuses
   exclusively on layout recompilation.
 * Retained the existing page-by-page AJAX recompilation workflow and Brizy asset
   URL compatibility handling.

#### 1.4.4

 * Added blank placeholder creation for missing Brizy media when yellow fallback
   blocks are not desired.
 * Blank placeholders can replace only plugin-created yellow placeholders or fill
   missing upload paths; real media files are never overwritten.
 * Improves handling for Brizy background-image sections where removing a yellow
   placeholder can reveal the section fallback color.

#### 1.4.3

 * Added an option to remove yellow placeholder files created by the plugin.
 * Existing yellow placeholders are now detected during the media scan and clearly
   marked in the report.
 * The create and remove placeholder actions run in small batches and never overwrite
   or delete real media files.

#### 1.4.2

 * Improved Missing Brizy Media Scan so it can detect media references generated
   in rendered Brizy beta output.
 * Fixed cases where the media scan reported no missing files even though the front
   end showed broken Brizy images.

#### 1.4.1

 * Added compatibility handling for Brizy and Brizy Pro asset URLs on subdirectory
   WordPress installs.
 * Fixed an issue where Brizy beta could load front-end CSS and JavaScript from 
   duplicated paths, causing pages to appear unstyled.

#### 1.4.0

 * Adds a missing Brizy media scanner with a clear report of missing local files,
   source links, and affected pages.
 * Adds yellow placeholder creation for missing upload paths without overwriting
   existing files or changing database content.

#### 1.3.0

 * Enqueues JavaScript externally and maps internal hex UID titles to clear descriptions.
