## Description

⚠️ **PLUGIN RETIREMENT NOTICE**

This plugin is being retired and will no longer receive updates or support. We strongly
recommend migrating to the **Fetch Meditation** plugin which provides the same SPAD
functionality plus additional features.

**Migration Information:**
 – New Plugin: https://wordpress.org/plugins/fetch-meditation/–
The new plugin supports both “Just For Today” (JFT) and “Spiritual Principle A Day”(
SPAD) meditations – Full backward compatibility: your existing `[spad]` shortcodes
will continue to work – Includes additional language support and timezone features–
Actively maintained and supported

**Original Description:**
 Fetch SPAD is a plugin that pulls the Spiritual Principle
A Day from https://spadna.org and puts it on your page or post.

_Third Party Disclosure_

This plugin pulls from the SPADNA service at https://spadna.org to get the current
days meditation. This is a GET request only and no information is posted to this
third party service. This service itself has no privacy policy, but you can view
