Add Google Photos-style justified row layout as a mode within masonry:
- Add masonryMode setting: 'columns' (Pinterest) or 'rows' (Google Photos)
- Create justifiedLayoutCalculator utility for row-based layouts
- Extract and store image dimensions on upload for layout calculations
- Include width/height in gallery API response
- Add row height and last row behavior controls to theme customizer
- Support responsive container width detection with ResizeObserver
Photos in rows mode maintain their aspect ratios while filling
horizontal rows at a consistent height. The number of photos per
row is automatically calculated based on target row height and
photo dimensions.
Closes#146
Add event-level custom logo upload/delete endpoints and UI, allowing
per-event logos to override the global branding logo in gallery views.
Also fixes several bugs discovered during testing:
- fix: category_id 'individual' parsed as NaN causing photo upload failures
- fix: gallery auth race condition where photos query fired before token stored
- fix: gallery-photos query not invalidated after favorite/like mutations
- fix: e2e test race conditions with View Gallery button detachment
Add null checks for expires_at and event_date fields to prevent
TypeError when calling parseISO() on null values. This fixes crashes
that occurred after making event dates optional.
- AdminDashboard: skip events with null expires_at in expiring filter
- GalleryPage: handle null expires_at in expiration calculation
- GalleryView: make daysUntilExpiration nullable with explicit checks
- EventDetailsPage: return null from safeParseDate for null inputs
Add configurable hero logo settings for individual events:
- Logo visibility toggle (show/hide in hero section)
- Logo size options (small, medium, large, xlarge)
- Logo position options (top, center, bottom)
Changes include:
- Database migration for hero_logo_visible, hero_logo_size, hero_logo_position fields
- Backend routes updated to handle new settings
- Frontend admin page with logo customization controls
- HeroGalleryLayout component with dynamic logo rendering
- i18n translations for EN and DE
Also updates .gitignore to exclude test files and artifacts.
Implements GitHub issue #139 - allows users to create and manage custom
event types beyond the default presets (wedding, birthday, corporate, other).
Backend:
- Add event_types table migration with default system types
- Create eventTypeService for CRUD operations with legacy fallback
- Add adminEventTypes routes with full REST API
- Update event validation to use dynamic event types
- Update slug generation to use custom slug_prefix
Frontend:
- Add EventTypesPage with full CRUD admin interface
- Add eventTypes.service.ts API client
- Update CreateEventPage to fetch types dynamically
- Add Event Types navigation in admin sidebar
- Add i18n translations (EN/DE)
Backward compatible: existing galleries continue to work, legacy types
accepted even if database is empty via fallback mechanisms.
The ThemeCustomizerEnhanced component stored customCss in a separate
local state that was never propagated to the parent component when
hideActions was true (used in both CreateEventPage and EventDetailsPage).
Changes:
- handleChange() now includes customCss when propagating theme changes
- CSS textarea onChange now propagates customCss to parent in preview mode
- handlePresetSelect() clears customCss when selecting a preset
Fixes#136
- Remove hidden sm:block wrapper hiding upload button on mobile for Grid layout
- Add upload button to GallerySidebar using existing allowUploads/onUploadClick props
- Ensures upload button is visible in both header and sidebar on all devices
Closes#113
The upload button was hidden in the sidebar on mobile devices, requiring
users to open the menu to find it. Now it appears directly in the topbar
for easy access on all screen sizes.
- Remove !isMobile condition from header upload button
- Add responsive text (short on mobile, full on desktop)
- Remove duplicate upload button from sidebar
Fixes#113
Update document title based on company name and tagline settings:

- settings.imageSecurity: Bildschutz, Ratenbegrenzung, Sicherheitsüberwachung
- Protection level options in both EN and DE locales
- Add CSS template selector to ThemeCustomizerEnhanced component
- Rename "Custom CSS" to "Event-specific Custom CSS" for clarity
- Load and save css_template_id when editing events
- Fetch CSS templates when entering edit mode on EventDetailsPage
- Pass CSS template props to ThemeEditorModal
- Add backend validation for css_template_id field
- Fix upload category selection by looking up category from database
and saving category_id to photos table (was being ignored before)
- Use category slug for filename generation during upload
- Improve Like/Comment button visibility in CarouselGalleryLayout and
PhotoLightbox with semi-transparent background and border styling

This commit fixes the core bugs that prevented Reference mode from functioning:
1. Missing external_relpath Error (CRITICAL FIX)
- Root cause: photoResolver prioritized event.source_mode over photo.source_origin
- Problem: Events in "reference" mode with uploaded photos would fail
because uploaded photos have source_origin='managed' but were being
treated as external photos (requiring external_relpath)
- Fix: Prioritize photo.source_origin over event.source_mode
- Result: Events can now have MIXED sources - imported external photos
AND newly uploaded managed photos coexisting correctly
- File: backend/src/services/photoResolver.js:19
2. Category Assignment Failure (CRITICAL FIX)
- Root cause: Update endpoints modified category_id column but display
used photo.type field ('individual' or 'collage')
- Problem: Category changes appeared to succeed but had no visible effect
- Fix: When category_id is 'individual' or 'collage', update the type
field instead of category_id
- Result: Category assignments now work correctly for all photos
- Files: backend/src/routes/adminPhotos.js:489-497, 605-607
3. Scroll Button Non-Functional (UX FIX)
- Root cause: Scroll indicator was purely visual (no click handler)
- Problem: Users expected to click the animated chevron to scroll
- Fix: Convert div to button with smooth scroll to grid section
- Result: Scroll button now functions as expected with proper a11y
- File: frontend/src/components/gallery/layouts/HeroGalleryLayout.tsx:165-184
Technical Details:
Mixed Source Support:
The photoResolver now correctly handles events that mix:
- External photos: source_origin='external' + external_relpath set
- Uploaded photos: source_origin='managed' + path in storage/events/active
This allows users to start with external media import and later upload
additional photos without errors.
Category/Type Distinction:
The system uses photo.type ('individual'|'collage') for display but also
has a legacy category_id column. The update logic now handles both:
- String values 'individual'/'collage' → update type field
- Numeric values → update legacy category_id field (backward compat)
Notes on Remaining Issues:
Issue #30 also mentioned:
4. Image display (cropped square) - This is by design. Thumbnails use
fit='cover' by default for consistent grid layouts. Can be changed
via app_settings.thumbnail_fit if needed.
5. Theme application - The "Apply Theme" button updates the form state
correctly. Users need to click "Save Changes" to persist to database.
This is standard form behavior, not a bug.
Testing:
- Create event in reference mode with external media
- Upload new photos to the same event → verify no external_relpath error
- Change categories on both external and uploaded photos → verify changes apply
- Use Hero gallery layout → verify scroll button works
Fixes#30
- Grid, Masonry, Mosaic, Timeline, Hero, and Carousel layouts now expose inline Like/Favorite buttons when feedback is enabled
- Respect requireNameEmail; prompt via identity modal before submitting feedback
- Wire feedback settings from GalleryView -> layouts via feedbackOptions
feat(lightbox): keep feedback usable while navigating
- Add initialShowFeedback prop; preserve panel state across navigation
- Offset Next button when feedback panel is open so it remains accessible
- Hide/avoid overlapping nav on small screens
Refs: #19
- Left-align logo across breakpoints; remove duplicate centered/mobile blocks
- Add date separator and spacing; keep header compact and readable
fix(admin): prevent category badge overlap in grid
- Move badge to top-left; make non-interactive; constrain width to avoid checkbox collisions
chore(docker): support ADMIN_PASSWORD in docker-compose
- Allow setting initial admin password via env for easier provisioning
chore(backend): normalize EOF newline in set-admin-password.js
Refs: admin-header-layout, category-badge-overlap, docker-admin-password
