    "changelog": "<p><strong>0.6.1</strong><br />\n* No-DCM district pages now show a short \"this service seat is open\" page with a get-involved link, instead of returning a \"page not found\" error.</p>\n<p><strong>0.6.0</strong><br />\n* A cleaner, friendlier wp-admin for the volunteers who edit the site: the editing experience now matches the site's look — warm colours, the site fonts, plainer wording, and far less clutter.<br />\n* Committee chairs get a simplified dashboard — a welcome with quick shortcuts to the pages they manage, plus a site-stats panel (unique visitors, sessions, a 30-day trend, and top pages).<br />\n* A branded login screen and site header carrying the Area 28 mark.<br />\n* Calmer editing screens: fields grouped by space instead of boxes, related fields placed side by side, short fields sized to fit, plain-language labels, and \"(optional)\" markers instead of required asterisks.<br />\n* New \"Chair\" and \"Content Editor\" roles with least-privilege defaults, and a trimmed admin menu so non-technical volunteers see only what they need.</p>\n<p><strong>0.5.0</strong><br />\n* The \"Submit an Event\" form now matches the rest of the site — brand colours, fonts, and buttons throughout, including the date-range calendar and the time pickers, with a tidier two-column layout.<br />\n* Two new page-building blocks any editor can drop into a page: a gradient hero banner (eyebrow, heading, text, and an optional button or background photo), and a resource list of bordered link rows where each row can carry several links (for example \"Read\" and \"PDF Download\").<br />\n* New Digital Newcomer Packet and New to AA pages, built from those blocks, gathering the AA newcomer resources in one place.<br />\n* A page that opens with a hero banner no longer shows a duplicate page title above it.</p>\n<p><strong>0.4.3</strong><br />\n* The homepage hero can now hold more than one banner photo. Add several and the site can rotate through them on each visit, or leave rotation off to always show the first.<br />\n* Give any hero photo a season — a start and end date — so it only appears during part of the year (for example a winter photo from December through February); the dates wrap across the new year automatically.<br />\n* Choose which part of each hero photo stays in view — top, middle, or bottom — when it is cropped to the banner.<br />\n* Fully optional and non-destructive: a single existing hero photo keeps working unchanged, and with nothing set the homepage looks exactly as before.</p>\n<p><strong>0.4.2</strong><br />\n* Added a theme preview image — the card shown under Appearance → Themes. No change to the public site.</p>\n<p><strong>0.4.1</strong><br />\n* New \"Page Settings\" screen for each index page — Committees, Districts, Boomerang, Documents, Assemblies, and the Events page — so editors can add a custom heading, a subtitle, and rich intro text above or below the list.<br />\n* Add an optional header photo to any of those pages; a built-in overlay keeps the title readable over any image, and you choose which part of the photo stays in view.<br />\n* An \"Edit This Page\" button appears in the toolbar while viewing one of these pages, linking straight to its settings.<br />\n* Fully optional and non-destructive: every index page looks exactly as before until you fill something in.</p>\n<p><strong>0.4.0</strong><br />\n* New colour system: pick a brand colour, an accent, and a neutral \"paper\" colour — surfaces, borders, and buttons all derive from them, with WCAG-AA contrast still guaranteed automatically.<br />\n* A Brand tint dial washes the whole page toward the brand colour, or leave it at zero for a clean neutral; an optional \"Match neutral to brand\" gives surfaces a subtle brand tint.<br />\n* Hero and call-to-action panels now use a richer on-brand gradient instead of a flat fill.<br />\n* New Corners dial (sharp to round) and a Preset picker — Area 28, Harbor, Pine, Slate, and Dusk — that sets a whole look in one click, with room to fine-tune from there.<br />\n* Retired the separate neutral-temperature dial; choosing a warmer or cooler neutral colour now does the same job.</p>\n<p><strong>0.3.0</strong><br />\n* Structured content: Standing Committees, Districts, Assemblies, Documents, and the Boomerang newsletter are now their own content types with dedicated fields and templates, instead of hand-typed pages.<br />\n* Committee pages are a tabbed detail (Info / Meeting / Files / Get Involved) with a persistent facts header. \"Zoom\" is relabeled to a platform-agnostic \"Meeting / Join\" ahead of the move to Teams.<br />\n* Getting Involved lists the committees with open positions and links straight to each committee's Get Involved tab; open positions are editable per committee.<br />\n* News gains an All / Area / GSO category filter, and Events gains an All / Area / District filter over one branded list.<br />\n* Assemblies feature the next assembly on top, with upcoming and past listed in date order.<br />\n* Homepage pathway buttons now smooth-scroll to their section, and each section can carry a \"Read more\" link to a full page.<br />\n* Added a rich site footer, a scheduled announcement band, and a two-line wordmark.<br />\n* Data-heavy content types use the classic editor so their fields are easy to see and edit.<br />\n* Mobile polish: aligned list cards, tidier text-size controls, and consistent spacing.</p>\n<p><strong>0.2.0</strong><br />\n* Colors now flow through GeneratePress's own Global Colors and the block palette, so blocks and Elementor pages inherit the site palette automatically.<br />\n* Light mode only — the dark mode and manual dark toggle have been removed.<br />\n* New design-knob system: pick a brand color and an accent color, then fine-tune with surface-depth, text-contrast, neutral-temperature, elevation (flat to lifted), density (compact to airy), accent-vividness, and text-temperature dials — all with live preview.<br />\n* Self-hosted fonts (Manrope and Syne) delivered through GeneratePress Typography, with nothing hot-linked to third parties.<br />\n* Accessibility and fidelity fixes: responsive headings, WCAG-AA contrast, clear keyboard focus, and teal buttons.</p>\n<p><strong>0.1.0</strong><br />\n* First release: selectable design-token system with brand, accent, and neutral-warmth choices; contrast is checked for WCAG-AA safety, generated when you save, and cached.<br />\n* Automatic light and dark mode following your device preference, plus a manual dark toggle; per-visitor A-, A, and A+ text-size control; no flash of the wrong theme on load.<br />\n* Self-hosted fonts (Manrope, Syne, Source Sans 3, Libre Baskerville) with nothing hot-linked to third parties.<br />\n* GeneratePress styled on-brand through the token system, with Customizer controls and live preview.<br />\n* Accessibility foundations: skip link, semantic landmarks, and ARIA on tabs and controls.</p>"
