Theme Changelog

Publishing and organization

• Added paired English and Chinese tag inputs, with validation and preservation of existing translations.

• Added parent/child category switching on the homepage and hierarchical category archives, retaining existing URLs and resource associations.

A personal starting point

• Redesigned My Space around the existing personal navigation and recently visited data.

• Added local JSON navigation backup and four original CSS backgrounds: Aurora, Stars, Tech grid and Plain, with light/dark styling and optional motion.

Reading and useful tools

• Added on-device image resizing/compression and JPEG, PNG and WebP export as supported by the browser, without uploading image files.
• Disabled unused paid AI tools by default while retaining settings; added free manual bulk draft creation, retired legacy code and fixed the homepage news-count setting.

Release scope

Delivered on November 9, 2026. Resource Care remains v0.4.0. Existing content, permalinks, browser navigation, footer copy and development/testing records are retained. Account navigation synchronization is manual: merge first, then save after editing. Public account registration is not enabled automatically. Short-video parsing, external player lines and hosted encrypted file sharing are not operational services in this release; separate deployment and integration remain future work.

Updates

• Added independent Chinese and English resource titles with the original name as fallback, retaining resource IDs, URLs and administrative names.
• Added bilingual labels to each resource tag without duplicating terms or changing existing resource associations.
• Moved resource-related tags below the complete introduction and placed a site-wide technology-style tag cloud in the sidebar.
• Added bilingual/light-dark cloud styling, counts, context switches, ordering, local shuffling and language-aware tag archives.
• Removed fixed homepage-summary truncation so copy can use wider cards, and set portrait sidebar ads to 300×600 display with 600×1200 artwork guidance.
• Fixed overlapping slogan gradients, renamed the pending category to Mature Men, and hid unconfigured categories while retaining backend settings.

Release notes

Delivered on November 9, 2026. Tag translations are edited in tag management; paired tag inputs on the resource editor, bulk translation and parent/child category switching are not yet delivered. Mature Men still lacks a verified source. Ad artwork uses twice the display dimensions at the same 1:2 ratio.

Updates

• Added one complete introduction per language, using H2 headings as detail cards while retaining legacy sections and native-body fallback.
• Added internal direct-visit chevrons, bounded homepage sidebar width and 300/336px site-managed ad options.
• Renamed the paid strip to Trending, made empty AD tiles inert, moved editorial picks below Deals and retired the single deep-feature article.
• Simplified homepage partner links, shared the gold IDEAL wordmark across pages and unified the Insights Hub story-count setting.
• Added a CSS default video banner, cyan/violet categories, no in-picture category badge and consistent next/continuous button heights.
• Added actual-resolution quality labels, locally generated share QR codes, pink double-tap hearts and a feature-wide counter with an editable display base.
• Reused the same player element when changing sources to reduce fullscreen resets while preserving bounded retries and sound preferences.

Release notes

Delivered on November 8, 2026. Resource names still shared the native title; independent bilingual title fields arrive in v0.9.11. Displayed likes combine an editable base with deduplicated records rather than verified unique people. Native system fullscreen cannot display the page’s heart overlay.

Updates

• Redesigned Video Discover with an introduction panel, glass playback decorations, category controls, a player and responsive light/dark layouts.
• Provided eight default category slots and additional custom sources. Seven categories had corresponding endpoints; Mature Men remained explicitly pending.
• Attempted muted autoplay on entry, enabled continuous play by default, and added next/retry controls and a tap fallback when autoplay is blocked.
• Preserved timeouts and bounded retries while migrating previous custom sources without deleting their original settings.
• Added sidebar and bottom-banner artwork guidance beside existing advertisement upload controls without requiring a plugin update.

Release notes

The default video banner used an image in this release and switched to CSS in v0.9.10. Selected category chips were initially gold and later became cyan/violet. Third-party speed, content and availability are outside the theme’s control; not all eight slots had working sources.

Updates

• Applied a gold IDEAL wordmark on the homepage while retaining NEO, and shortened the bilingual introduction without changing headline sizing.
• Made portrait video sources the default, retained a separate landscape category, and fitted actual video dimensions without cropping.
• Added next/retry controls and bounded source failover after loading or buffering timeouts, stopping after three consecutive failures.
• Isolated stale requests during rapid switching, respected manual pauses and stopped playback on leaving the page.
• Preserved configurable sources and layouts, local navigation data and the existing plugin version.

Release notes

Delivered on November 8, 2026. The gold wordmark was initially homepage-only and became shared in v0.9.10. Playback still required a start action and continuous play was off; v0.9.9 revises these defaults and categories. Portrait orientation alone does not guarantee smooth streaming.

Updates

• Restored Discover a New Digital World. as the homepage headline rather than repeating the large brand name.
• Applied purple/cyan gradients to Discover a and Digital, and the same gold gradient to New and World in both themes.
• Kept World on its own mobile line without replacing the current single-line header.
• Added the corresponding Chinese slogan and configurable bilingual kicker and headline segments.
• Kept preset search shortcuts optional and hidden by default; these are not live trending searches.

Release notes

Delivered on November 8, 2026, with changes scoped to the homepage search hero rather than the old mobile header. Video sources and historical-date behavior were outside this release.

Updates

• Restored independent full-width editorial picks with visibility controls separate from the twelve advertising slots.
• Added On-site, Google, Bing and Baidu search engines, remembered selection and matching prompts and destinations.
• Enabled optional suggestions for external engines with keyboard navigation and Escape dismissal; on-site search does not request suggestions.
• Added input debouncing, stale-request handling, caching, rate limits and graceful failure.
• Provided bilingual engine labels, prompts, ordering, query templates and default selection while retaining a standard GET-form fallback.

Release notes

Delivered on November 8, 2026. With suggestions enabled, query text is forwarded through the site to the selected provider. This release does not add on-site suggestions or video-source improvements. Editorial picks initially sit below advertisements and move below Deals in v0.9.10.

Updates

• Added a twelve-slot placement strip with bilingual copy, icons, destination URLs and AD placeholders.
• Introduced moderated advertising applications with pending-review feedback and administrator-managed offline payment arrangements; there is no online checkout or automatic activation.
• Organized Insights Hub into Chinese, international, and technology/AI sections with six configurable RSS sources, filtering, refresh, caching and fallback.
• Added Video Discover with HTTPS playlists or direct endpoints, categories, next-video controls, optional continuous play and bounded retries.
• Tightened resource cards and applied the shared standalone-page layout and bilingual interface to the new pages.

Release notes

At delivery, video playback required a start action, continuous play was off, and news cards defaulted to five stories; later releases revise these defaults. Independent editorial picks are restored in v0.9.6 after the top strip became paid placements. Resource Care remains v0.4.0.

Updates

• Moved Featured Resources and My Navigation into full-width rows above the main-content/sidebar split.
• Added top-row ordering controls and a one-time layout migration that preserves subsequent administrator changes.
• Matched category icons and colors to category meaning rather than position, while retaining manual overrides.
• Adjusted resource logo/title alignment and added expandable featured items on mobile.
• Centered the mini namecard identity, removed its Follow Us badge and unboxed the social icons with corrected sizing.

Release notes

Delivered on November 7, 2026. This release did not introduce paid placement slots; those arrive separately in v0.9.5. Existing resources and local navigation data were retained, with Resource Care remaining at v0.4.0.

Updates

• Added favicon loading with an initial-letter fallback, preserved resource icons in recent visits, and supported icon recovery for older visits to published site resources.

• Replaced category shortcuts with eight configurable colored vector icons, bilingual labels, category links, ordering and visibility controls.
• Changed homepage resource cards to a logo-left layout and added restrained hover, keyboard and touch feedback to Discover.
• Added selectable sidebar ad ratios and artwork guidance, and set the homepage announcement default to five available entries.

Release notes

Delivered on November 7, 2026, with Resource Care v0.4.0 unchanged. Icon availability depends on the destination site, and personal navigation remains browser-local. Later releases further refine category matching and homepage structure.

Updates

– Added My Navigation and Recently Visited above Explore Categories, with browser-local storage, simple name/URL entry, editing, removal, duplicate detection and recent-history clearing. No account or cross-device synchronization is required.
– Added backend controls for the personal module title, visibility, visible item count and history limit. Icons use local initials without sending private bookmark URLs to an external icon service.
– Automatically displayed published resources from the first eight top-level resource categories, including their child categories. Each category defaults to twelve resources: six columns and two rows on desktop; mobile initially shows six items with expansion. Empty categories remain hidden.
– Added drag-and-drop and up/down module ordering, visibility switches and reset controls for the main content, sidebar and full-width sections. Each category has its own item count and resource sorting controls.

Release notes & known limitations

Delivered on November 7, 2026. Personal links are stored only in the current browser and can be lost when site data is cleared. Existing pages and manually configured menus are not replaced; older empty or untranslated pages need editorial completion. Support and policy text must reflect actual operations and enabled services. No advertising approval or production acceptance is claimed. The date-disappearance report remains unconfirmed locally.

Updates

– Preserved bilingual archive content, component and release-status fields, and expandable testing records.

Release notes & known limitations

Delivered on November 7, 2026, with Resource Care v0.4.0 unchanged. The Partner Links image placement could show a visible boundary between the solid background and artwork; v0.9.2 subsequently restored a CSS default. The reported disappearance of records after changing their display dates was not reproduced locally and remains unresolved for the live environment. Delivery does not establish production installation or acceptance.

Updates

#### Release notes & known limitations

The user installed and reviewed this release. Subsequent feedback identified overly similar mobile banners, replacement of the community’s original banner, a missing journey jump index, an unused legacy notice-date field, and room to improve announcement-detail typography. These are follow-up items, not fixes included in v0.9.0. Full production acceptance is not claimed. Resource Care remains v0.4.0.

#### Release notes & known limitations

Use with Resource Care v0.4.0. Internal sidebar scrolling was later reported to retain an independent position and was replaced in v0.9.0. Homepage partner cards were also simplified to text in v0.9.0. Real-host email, CAPTCHA and CDN behavior remained outside local verification.

Updates

Updates

– Avoided duplicate headings on community, partner and featured-resource pages.
