Visiting /admin/dashboard while logged out caused a navigation storm:
the dashboard fires ~7 /api/admin/* queries on mount, each returns 401,
each axios interceptor call did `window.location.href = '/admin/login'`.
The path-based guard `currentPath.includes('/admin/login')` reads
`location.pathname` *synchronously* — but `location.href = …` is async,
so all 7 parallel handlers saw the still-old pathname and each fired a
fresh navigation. The browser logged 6+ ERR_ABORTED entries and the user
saw a flicker storm. Same shape would bite any admin page that fans out
queries on mount.
Add a module-level `adminLoginRedirectPending` flag set the moment we
kick off the first redirect; subsequent 401s in the same tick see it
and skip. Single navigation, clean transition to login.
Smoke spec 10-admin-redirect-loop locks the regression in by sampling
the URL across 5 ticks — if any tick lands somewhere other than
/admin/login, the spec fails.
Introduces a new "Per-guest selections" identity mode for event
feedback, letting each visitor register under their own name so their
likes/favorites/comments/ratings are tracked independently. Includes
admin insights (list, per-guest detail, aggregate view, export) and
advanced identity features (forget-me, email recovery, invite tokens,
merge).
New event-level setting
- event_feedback_settings.identity_mode = 'simple' | 'guest' (default
'simple' → zero behavior change for existing events).
- Admin UI radio under Feedback Settings to toggle per event.
Root cause of the previous "all guests share state" bug
- generateGuestIdentifier() was sha256(ip + userAgent), so every visitor
on the same WiFi + similar device collided into one identity.
- Now: when a verified guest JWT is present (x-guest-token header),
req.guest.identifier takes precedence — per-person rate limits and
per-person deduplication.
Phase 1 — identity layer
- Migration 078: new gallery_guests, guest_invites, guest_verification_
codes tables; identity_mode column + check constraint; nullable
guest_id FK on photo_feedback.
- New guest JWT type scoped to (eventId, guestId).
- New middleware guestAuth.resolveGuest (non-blocking) + requireGuest.
- POST /gallery/:slug/guest, GET /guest/me, DELETE /guest/me.
- Gallery feedback route enforces guest identity in guest mode and
reads name/email from the verified token (never from the body).
- Frontend GuestIdentityContext + GuestNamePromptModal; axios
interceptor injects x-guest-token on gallery API calls.
- Feedback-only blocking: gallery opens freely, prompt only on first
interactive feedback action.
- Admin "Guests" tab (conditional on identity_mode='guest') with the
AdminGuestsList component.
Phase 2 — admin insights
- GET /admin/events/:eventId/guests list + aggregated counts.
- GET /admin/events/:eventId/guests/:guestId detail with per-type
groupings; AdminGuestDetail modal with thumbnail grid + tabs.
- GET /admin/events/:eventId/guests/aggregate sorted by distinct guest
pick count; GuestSelectionsAggregate component.
- Per-guest export (txt/csv/json) and bulk export-all ZIP.
Phase 3 — polish
- 3.1 Self-service forget-me link in gallery footer.
- 3.2 Email-based identity recovery: POST /guest/recover sends a
6-digit code via the existing emailProcessor, POST /guest/verify
exchanges it for a token (rate-limited, enumeration-safe).
- 3.3 Admin invite tokens: pre-mint identities, share URLs with
?invite=, single-use redemption stripping the param from history.
- 3.4 Admin merge endpoint reassigns feedback + soft-deletes sources.
Shared helper
- useGalleryFeedbackAction hook wraps the identity-check logic for
inline like buttons across Masonry/Grid/Justified/Mosaic/Carousel/
Timeline/Premium layouts.
Backwards compatibility
- Existing events default to 'simple' after migration; behavior
unchanged.
- Legacy photo_feedback rows keep guest_id NULL; admin shows them in
the generic feedback moderation view as before.
- feedback_count denormalized stat now uses COALESCE(guest_id,
guest_identifier) so per-guest counts are accurate without touching
legacy rows.
Verified end-to-end against local Docker
- Migration clean on existing data.
- Simple mode unchanged (no prompt, legacy flow).
- Guest mode: Alice registers on click, tokens persist in
sessionStorage, feedback rows carry guest_id.
- Carol via invite link auto-redeems, sees Alice's "1 likes" badge.
- Admin Guests tab shows both with correct counts; detail modal
displays thumbnail grid with badges; aggregate view sorts by picker
count (photo 227 = 2, others = 1); CSV/JSON export matches DB.
- Merge Carol into Alice: feedback reassigned, Carol soft-deleted,
Alice count = 4.
- Fixed duplicate German translation for 'downloadSelected' button
- Added client_max_body_size configuration in nginx for file uploads
- Fixed date parsing in FeedbackModerationPanel to handle timestamps
- Fixed admin authentication context (req.admin vs req.user) in feedback routes
- Enhanced clipboard functionality with fallback for non-HTTPS contexts
- Fixed authentication token handling for numeric event IDs in uploads
These changes ensure comment moderation works properly, file uploads are configured correctly, and the UI handles all edge cases properly.

- Remove all console.log/debug statements from production code
- Add NODE_ENV checks for development-only logging
- Remove test scripts (test-feedback, test-image-security, test-backup-*, test-restore)
- Remove one-time fix scripts (fix-temp-photos, fix-migration-state, mark-migration-applied)
- Remove sensitive files (.env.backup, ADMIN_CREDENTIALS.txt)
- Update package.json to remove references to deleted scripts
- Replace console statements with logger utility in backend
- Secure error boundaries to not expose stack traces in production
This makes the codebase production-ready with no debug output or test scripts.

Users were being redirected from gallery pages to admin login due to
useLocalizedDate hook trying to fetch admin settings. Fixed by:
1. Added general_date_format to public settings endpoint
2. Created publicSettingsService for unauthenticated access
3. Updated useLocalizedDate to use public settings instead of admin
4. Fixed API interceptor to not redirect on public endpoint 401s
5. Added backups/ and test-archiver/ to .gitignore
This restores gallery access for all users.

BREAKING ISSUE FIXED:
- 403 errors were triggering redirects, preventing login page from loading
- Public endpoints returning 403 were causing redirect loops
Changes:
- Removed 403 status from automatic redirect logic
- Only 401 (Unauthorized) now triggers login redirect
- 403 (Forbidden) errors are passed through without redirect
This fixes the critical issue where users couldn't access the login page
because public API calls were returning 403 and triggering redirects.
403 errors should be handled differently than 401:
- 401 = Missing/invalid auth (redirect to login)
- 403 = Forbidden (could be rate limit, IP block, etc - don't redirect)
🚨 Emergency fix for production
Co-Authored-By: Claude <[email protected]>
- Added proper HTTP status check before JSON parsing in AnalyticsPage
* Prevents "Unexpected token '<'" error when API returns HTML error pages
* Throws proper error for non-OK responses
- Enhanced API error handling to treat 403 as auth failure
* Both 401 and 403 now trigger redirect to login page
* Clears expired admin tokens automatically
* Prevents users from staying on admin pages with expired sessions
These fixes resolve:
1. JSON parse errors when fetching Umami config
2. 403 Forbidden errors not redirecting to login
3. Backend version display issues due to auth failures
