Disable the automatic writing of data to JSON files in `createPageContentController`, `admissionsController`, and `policiesController` to prevent redundant file system operations during updates.
Add functionality to manage tuition data within the admissions admin editor. This includes implementing state normalization for tuition series, label extraction, and the rendering logic for the tuition tab.
- Add `renderTuitionSection` and `normalizeTuitionState` logic
- Implement helper functions for tuition series and point normalization
- Integrate tuition tab routing in the editor script
Replace the legacy `cms-icon-combobox` implementation with a new, standardized `icon-picker` across multiple admin modules. This change simplifies the UI by using a Bootstrap input group with a dedicated "Pick Icon" button and a preview cell.
Affected areas:
- Policies block editor
- Accreditation, Admissions, History, and Policies admin editor scripts
- Admissions calculator options view
This removes redundant icon list generation and manual dropdown management in favor of a centralized icon picker utility.
Implement a more flexible, configuration-driven approach for CMS editors across accreditation, admissions, and partnerships modules.
- Move UI labels, help texts, and field limits from hardcoded views to `editorUi` configurations in config files.
- Add server-side and client-side validation to prevent duplicate category tabs in accreditation and partnerships editors.
- Refactor partnership and admission views to dynamically render tabs and fields based on the provided configuration.
- Update field length constraints and default values across multiple content editors to better align with frontend requirements.
- Improve the admissions calculator editor with dynamic field configurations and default value fallbacks.
Improve the policy content management experience by adding a dedicated fullscreen editing mode and a structured date picker for effective dates.
- Implement fullscreen toggle in `policies-block-editor.js` with corresponding CSS for an expanded workspace
- Add `date` field type to `sharedFields.js` and integrate it into `policiesConfig.js`
- Implement date parsing and formatting utilities in `editor-script.ejs` to handle "Effective Date" strings
- Update `policiesController.js` to use `updateOne` for more reliable document persistence and state reloading
- Add support for `ICON_OPTIONS` in the policy editor configuration
- Refine editor UI layout and overflow handling for better stability with long content strings
Replace the legacy section-based policy editor with a flexible block-based system. This transition enables real-time previews, a wider variety of content types (headings, quotes, callouts), and improved data normalization.
- Implement `policies-block-editor.js` for dynamic content management
- Add `normalizePoliciesDocument` and `validateContent` utilities to handle data migration and integrity
- Update `policiesController.js` to support the new block structure and validation logic
- Migrate `policies.json` from `sections` array to a `content.blocks` structure
- Remove obsolete section editor views and partials
- Update `policiesConfig.js` to reflect the new editor capabilities
Refactor tuition data from a simple numeric array to a structured object
containing time labels and values. This allows for more flexible
charting and precise data entry in the CMS.
- Add `normalizeTuition`, `normalizeTuitionSeries`, and `normalizeTuitionPoint` to `admissionsController.js`
- Update `admissionsConfig.js` to use `objectList` for tuition data points instead of `stringList`
- Migrate existing tuition data in `admissions.json` to the new structured format
- Fix duplicate text in `admissions.json` grant amounts and descriptions
Improve the CMS administration interface across multiple pages (Accreditation, Admissions, History, Partnerships, and Policies) with a focus on usability and data integrity.
Key changes include:
- Implement `ensureUniqueIds` utility to automatically generate and maintain unique slugs for content items, removing the need for manual ID entry in the UI.
- Refactor the Admissions calculator to support detailed per-option editing via a new dedicated view and routes.
- Replace basic datalists with a custom, searchable icon combobox component for better visual selection.
- Update `_renderSingletonPageView` to handle active tab persistence via query parameters.
- Streamline editor configurations by removing redundant fields and improving help text.
- Enhance the Admissions "Key Dates" editor with a dynamic table interface for managing columns and rows.
- Normalize data payloads in controllers to ensure consistent API responses and internal linking.
Enhance the CMS administration interface by introducing a more refined design system for content editors. This update replaces generic Bootstrap utility classes with dedicated CMS styling to improve visual hierarchy and usability.
Key changes:
- Introduce `cms-editor-group` and `cms-item-card` classes for consistent grouping and item styling.
- Implement collapsible functionality for item cards to manage long lists of content more effectively.
- Standardize editor buttons, including new styles for drag handles, remove buttons, and add buttons.
- Update the fixed bottom action bar with improved backdrop filters, shadows, and spacing.
- Refactor editor scripts across Accreditation, Admissions, History, Partnerships, and Policies to utilize the new UI components and collapse logic.
- Add comprehensive CSS to `main.ejs` to support the new CMS design tokens and layout behaviors.
Refactor the CMS page content system to use a more modular configuration-driven approach. This replaces the monolithic `pageContentConfig.js` with individual configuration files for each page and introduces a shared field utility to standardize editor components.
Key changes:
- Implement a generic `_renderSingletonPageView` helper to reduce duplication across controllers.
- Enhance `_createPageContentController` with `normalizeForEditor`, `normalizeForApi`, and `preparePayload` hooks for custom data transformation.
- Create dedicated configuration and view structures for Partnerships, History, Accreditation, Admissions, and Policies pages.
- Add a specialized section editor for Policies to manage complex nested content.
- Improve the frontend `page-content-editor.js` with support for visibility logic, auto-sequencing for arrays, and URL synchronization for active tabs.
- Update data JSON files to align with the new schema.
Implement a singleton page content system to manage static informational pages. This includes:
- New controllers, models, and data files for Partnerships, History, Accreditation, Admissions, and Policies.
- Admin routes and views for updating page content.
- Public API endpoints for fetching page data.
- Migration scripts for initializing page data.
- Updated admin navigation layout to include a dropdown for "About" sections.
