Update Log

• Secure File Upload: Implemented secure file upload for House Admin Infos. Admins can now upload PDF, Word documents, and images (<15MB) to news items. Tenants can download these files directly from the Info page.

• Visitor Privacy: Hidden tenant names and apartment numbers for non-logged-in visitors in the booking modal. Visitors effectively see "Busy" status instead of personal details.

• Mockup Automation: Implemented a Puppeteer script to automatically capture fresh screenshots from the running application for documentation and marketing.

• Improved Language Selector: Replaced the language dropdown with a direct "click-to-switch" horizontal bar (EN DE FR IT ES). This makes changing languages faster and requires one less click.

• Progressive Disclosure: The password change form is now hidden by default and can be toggled via a "Change Password" button to declutter the interface.
