- Fix admin video upload missing media_type/mime_type and video processing (#203)
- Fix Gallery-Premium Select All using atomic callbacks instead of stale closure loop (#220)
- Add photo dimension repair endpoint and admin UI (#180)
- Add E2E tests for all three fixes
Users behind Cloudflare Tunnel and other reverse proxies cannot upload
batches >100MB. The upload chunking previously used a hardcoded 500MB
limit. This adds a configurable `max_upload_batch_size_mb` setting
(default 95MB) to the admin General settings, leaving headroom below
Cloudflare's 100MB limit.
- #194: Send full date format object instead of just format string to prevent JSON parse errors
- #195: Remove non-functional forgot password link, fix README port 3005 -> 3000
- #196: Use ADMIN_PASSWORD env var in migration, update existing user in create-admin script instead of failing
- #197: Convert camelCase filter keys to snake_case in photo export to match backend PhotoFilterBuilder
Surface the existing original_filename from the database in the admin
photo grid hover overlay and photo viewer sidebar, so photographers can
correlate uploaded images with their Lightroom/disk originals. Only shown
when it differs from the system-generated filename. Gallery guests remain
unaffected.
- Disable production source maps and hide nginx version
- Reduce JSON body limit from 10gb to 50mb (uploads use multer, not JSON)

- Fix E2E tests by loading environment variables via dotenv
- Add test-images/ and backend/*.db to .gitignore
Closes#181
- Fix masonry/mosaic layout regression where tiles displayed uniform heights
instead of respecting image aspect ratios. Changed from fixed 150-500px
height constraints to dynamic constraints based on column width.
- Add hero image optimization pipeline generating 1920x1080 images for
full-width hero sections instead of using low-quality thumbnails.
- New /hero/:photoId endpoint serves optimized hero images with watermark
support and automatic generation/caching.
- Add hero_url field to photos API response for frontend consumption.
- Migration 069 adds hero_path column to photos table.
Admin Dark Mode:
- Add AdminDarkModeContext with light/dark/system preference
- Update all admin components with Tailwind dark: classes
- Add dark mode toggle in admin header
- Persist preference in localStorage
SEO Settings:
- Add robots.txt configuration in Settings > SEO tab
- Block AI crawlers (GPTBot, ChatGPT-User, etc.) with toggle
- Custom robots.txt rules management
- Add RobotsMetaTags component for gallery pages
- Backend service for dynamic robots.txt generation
- Database migration for SEO settings storage
UI/UX Improvements:
- Consistent dark mode styling across all admin pages
- Update gallery components with themed CSS classes
- Fix input, card, and button styling for dark mode
The frontend never sent header_style/hero_divider_style as separate
fields when creating or updating events, so the database columns always
kept their default value of 'standard' — making the hero header
impossible to enable through the admin UI.
- Extract headerStyle/heroDividerStyle from theme config and include in
create and update payloads (CreateEventPage, EventDetailsPage)
- Add backend fallback to extract values from color_theme JSON when not
explicitly provided, ensuring older clients stay in sync
Wire up the hero_photo_id column on photo_categories that was added in
the migration but never connected. Backend routes now accept and persist
hero_photo_id on category create/update, a dedicated PUT /:id/hero
endpoint is added, and the gallery API returns hero_photo_id for each
category. Frontend EventCategoryManager shows a clickable thumbnail per
category that opens a photo picker modal. Includes EN/DE i18n keys.
Add missing i18n translations for hero image focal point picker in both
EN and DE locales. Fix lint errors across touched files: remove unused
imports/variables, replace raw buttons with shared Button component,
eliminate inline styles, extract duplicated backend validation, and
remove dead heroImagePosition type.
Add interactive focal point picker for hero images, allowing precise
crop positioning via click or preset buttons (top/center/bottom).
Includes backend validation, migrations, and gallery rendering support.
- Add try-catch and file existence check for photo path resolution (#161)
- Fix gallery categories to use photo_categories table instead of legacy type field (#156)
- Add byte-size-based chunking (500MB max) for uploads to prevent oversized batches (#155)
- Add separate header_style setting (hero/standard/minimal/none) that can
be combined with any layout type (grid/masonry/carousel/timeline/mosaic)
- Create HeroHeader and HeroDivider components for reusable hero section
- Add hero_divider_style setting (wave/straight/angle/curve/none)
- Add database migration for header_style and hero_divider_style columns
- Remove deprecated HeroGalleryLayout component
- Fix various TypeScript errors across the codebase:
- Add missing type properties (css_template_id, updatedAt, justified settings)
- Fix null handling for event_date and expires_at fields
- Fix translation function calls and i18n config
- Remove unused imports and variables
- Increase nginx client_max_body_size from 100MB to 1GB for video support
- Fix admin photo category filtering to properly handle numeric category IDs
from the photo_categories table, not just legacy 'individual'/'collage' types
- Add support for 'uncategorized' filter to show photos with no category
- Add migration to backfill width/height for existing photos without dimensions
- Replace justified masonry mode with quilted layout (mixed sizes based on aspect ratio)
- Rewrite mosaic layout to use proper CSS Grid with span rules
- Fix theme not being applied after gallery login
- Improve columns mode distribution using shortest-column algorithm
- Apply gallery theme regardless of authentication status
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 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.
