tools/build_blog.py converts a Markdown source into the site's scrollspy blog
article (title, header, hero, sidebar nav from ## headings, body). First output:
the new EN post "Where to search for student accommodation in Slovenia", added at
the top of the blog index (newest first), dated 2026-08-03, SEO injected.
MK/SI of this post and the rest of the blog batch (refresh 1-5, split trilingual
posts 2-4, personal essay post 7) still to come.

#9.2 Full-width auto-rotating team hero (crossfade every 4.5s, transparent blue
overlay) directly under the About Us title — 11 landscape photos supplied by MSOS.
#9.4 "Our members & friends" appreciation section after Mission & Vision: a
contained photo carousel + name chips. Photos and names are PLACEHOLDERS
(names in "First L." format) pending the full members list.

Add tools/build_listings.py: copies the top 3 cards from each language's News
hub into the homepage "Latest news" block (marker-wrapped), so editing the News
page now updates the homepage. The News hub stays the hand-edited source of truth
(it may hold curated teaser cards without a detail page).
Also: fix the Gallery meta description (was a copy of the FAQ text) and add a
durable gallery override to seo_inject.py; refresh llms.txt / links-for-bots.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Add tools/build_botlinks.py which regenerates, from the pages already on disk:
- /llms.txt llmstxt.org-style Markdown index (English, with descriptions)
- /links-for-bots/ a lightweight fully-linked crawl hub covering EN/MK/SI
Re-run `python tools/build_botlinks.py` after adding or removing pages; it only
reads each page's <title> and meta description, so it stays current automatically.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Footer disclaimer on every page (informative-only, verify with official sources)
- "Good to know" callout across all Student Welcome Guide pages, pointing to
the "Was this page helpful?" box for reporting errors
- "Website content & liability" disclaimer card on the Official information page
All three languages (EN/MK/SI).

- #9.1 Reorder "Who We Are" nav to Our team, Timeline, MSOS Hub (all 225 pages)
- #4 Fix MK "Ask MSOS" label to "Прашај го МСОС"
- #11 Landing hero overlay -> radial blue vignette (lighter centre)
- #3 Gallery cards show the event date under the title (DD.MM.YYYY)
- #1 Membership/support CTA at the end of project pages (memorials excluded)
- #8 "Illustrative image" tag on blog/news photo captions
- #9.3 Mission & Vision: full-width gradient band + more space above title
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
New posts (Ad futura scholarship, learning Slovene, welcome days,
study in North Macedonia) across EN/MK/SI, plus blog index and _blog.css
updates. (Also carries the site-wide nav reorder and the illustrative-image
caption tag on the bank-account post.)

Convert the Hub / Become-a-member carousels from a pure-CSS marquee to a
JS-driven scroller with click-and-drag, touch swipe, and progress dots
(setupHubCarousel). Turn the "ways to be part of MSOS" cards into hub-style
photo cards and add the final Become-a-member photos (WebP).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Convert the fixed 6-card grid in the "There is more than one way to be
part of MSOS" section into the Hub's auto-scrolling marquee, reusing the
existing .hub-carousel mechanics with icon-based gradient cards. Applied
across EN/MK/SI.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replace the temporary placeholder images in the "What you can do here"
and "A glimpse of the space" sections with the final Hub photos
(converted to WebP) across EN/MK/SI, and drop the placeholder notes.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Applies the corrections from "msos web corrections.docx" across 6 Macedonian
pages, plus two global fixes, plus matching English tweaks.
Per-page (MK):
- Landing: hero eyebrow/subtitle, story section, testimonials, FAQ block
- About us / Our team: "Раководен тим" -> "Управен одбор", team names to
Cyrillic, Marko's title, removed duplicate top gradient + added spacing,
fixed the broken "Still have questions" footer to match the landing page
- MSOS Hub: title widow (nbsp), hub descriptions
- FAQ: intro + 9 answer corrections (also fixed leftover English fragments)
- Become a Member: card label, removed stats note, consistent "ти" voice,
Cyrillic names, form step + success text
- Support: title, subtitle, community section, support options
Global (all MK pages): header menu "Нашиот тим, мисија, визија и вредности"
-> "Нашиот тим"; напатница -> напотница. Visible punctuation dashes changed
to commas per owner preference.
English: testimonials section (en/index.html) and two document answers
(en/faq) updated to match.
Adds docs/MK-PROOFREADING.md (6 proofread, 63 remaining of 69 MK pages).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Replace the "Image placeholder" boxes on all 30 guide subpages + the guide
landing hero with real, optimized photos and captions, EN/MK/SI (93 figures).
- 31 source photos (up to 18 MB) optimized to WebP (<=1400px, all <500 KB)
as images/guide-<slug>.webp.
- Captions follow the Get-to-Know style: description + "Photo:/Фото:/Foto:"
+ linked source (or MSOS for own event photos). Photographer credits kept.
MK/SI descriptions are translated (proofread welcome).
- CSS: move the banner crop from the figure onto the <img> so the caption
shows below it (was clipped by the figure's fixed height + overflow).

Consolidates outstanding items so nothing is lost during the pause: domain
decision, content placeholders, MK/SI proofread, GA4 setup, plus a record of
what's already hardened. Dev-only doc (docs/ excluded from deploy).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Switch CSP from Report-Only to enforcing, with an allowlist verified in a
browser against a server sending this exact header (0 violations across the
homepage, a YouTube project page, the assistant, MailerLite JSONP, GA/gtag,
and the Google Forms endpoint).
Adds the sources the old report-only policy was missing (and would have
broken if enforced blindly): Google Fonts (style/font), Font Awesome cdnjs
(style/font), MailerLite newsletter (script/connect), the Google Forms
endpoint in connect-src, plus object-src 'none'. Keeps 'unsafe-inline' for
the in-<head> consent bootstrap; the host allowlists + form-action/base-uri
are the real hardening on top of existing output escaping.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Redirect all plain-http requests to https (double condition guards against
a redirect loop behind a TLS-terminating proxy).
- Add Strict-Transport-Security (6-month max-age, no preload/includeSubDomains
so it stays easy to adjust) so browsers refuse http after the first visit.
Closes the "HTTPS everywhere" gap: previously http:// served in the clear.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The earlier "canonical domain" redirect forced msos.spletnimojster.si (where
the site is actually served) to msosorg.com, which does NOT yet host these
files — so every page 404'd. Replace it with a host-relative root -> /en/
redirect so the live domain serves the site again. A canonical-host redirect
can be re-added once msosorg.com is pointed at this same docroot.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add a subtle disclaimer under the greeting (EN/MK/SI): "automated guide,
can make mistakes — check the linked page for official steps." Shown once,
not on every message, so it sets expectations without clutter. Persistent
footer disclaimer stays.
- docs/GA4-ASSISTANT-REPORT.md: step-by-step for registering the custom
dimensions and building the "top questions" + "unanswered questions"
explorations in GA4 (dev-only doc, not deployed).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Addresses real gaps found in testing (a Macedonian question on an English
page returned nothing):
- Detect the language of the QUESTION (Cyrillic -> MK; Slovene markers -> SI;
else the page language) and load that language's index + curated answers.
Fixes cross-language questions.
- Expand curated multilingual intents (now incl. enrolment/eVŠ, deadlines,
health, "what is MSOS", etc.) with stem keywords for better paraphrase
matching. MK/SI answers machine-drafted — proofread before launch.
- Suggested-question chips on open (localized) to guide users.
- Privacy-safe analytics: fire a GA4 'assistant_query' event ONLY after the
visitor accepts cookies (q text, result type, question vs page language) so
the team can see real FAQs and unanswered questions.
- Move the widget to bottom-left on pages with the floating "Become a member"
CTA so they never overlap. Design polish (chips, typing dots, launcher pulse).
- CI: rebuild the search index on every deploy (setup-python + build script)
so the assistant stays in sync with content automatically. Build script is
now path-portable (no hardcoded path).
Verified in a headless browser: MK-on-EN now answers correctly, chips work,
analytics event fires only with consent, become-a-member offset applies,
zero console errors.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
A privacy-friendly help widget that answers visitor questions from the
site's own content and links to the full page — runs 100% in the browser,
no API, no server, no per-token cost.
- tools/build_search_index.py: parses every EN/MK/SI page into ~720
heading-level chunks per language -> assistant/index-<lang>.json
(lazy-loaded only when the chat is opened; gzips to ~80 KB).
- assistant.js: dependency-free BM25 search + multilingual stopword
filtering + a curated short-answer layer for common questions, plus an
accessible chat widget (role=dialog, keyboard, aria). CSP-safe (self only).
- assistant.css: scoped .msa-* styles in the site's teal palette;
responsive (full-screen panel on mobile).
- Injected on 208 pages (blog WIP excluded; picks it up when that lands).
Verified in a headless browser across EN/MK/SI: curated answers, search
fallback with correct ranking (rare terms win), correct deep links,
Cyrillic + Slovene diacritics, and zero console errors. Curated MK/SI
answers are machine-drafted — proofread before launch.

The homepage "Every Student Has a Story" section had a <button class=
"play-button"> with no handler and no video wired to it — clicking did
nothing. Remove the dead button; keep the team photo and section copy.
The story video can be wired back in later.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The mobile hamburger is a <div class="mobile-menu-icon"> with a click
handler, so it worked on tap but was invisible to keyboard and screen-reader
users. Expose it as a button in main.js: role="button", tabindex="0",
aria-label, aria-expanded toggling, and Enter/Space activation. Verified in
a headless browser (focusable, Enter opens, aria state flips).
Also adds docs/PRE-LAUNCH-CHECKLIST.md (dev-only, excluded from deploy):
inventory of remaining content placeholders for the public launch.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Site-wide health pass (excludes in-progress blog work). Verified with a
local server + headless browser: Timeline, homepage and gallery pages load
with zero console errors and no layout distortion.
Render bugs
- Timeline page (en/mk/si): fix ../../../ paths that overshot the site root,
so the main stylesheet and hero image load again.
- Meet Student Slovenia 2023 (en/mk/si): remove a <figure> referencing
event3-photo-11.png, an image that was never uploaded (broken image).
Performance
- Add intrinsic width/height to 1039 raster <img> tags to prevent layout
shift (CLS); 450 SVGs correctly skipped. Add a global
`img { max-width:100%; height:auto }` safety net so aspect ratio is
preserved and images never overflow.
- Preload the homepage hero (LCP) image on en/mk/si.
- Load Font Awesome non-blocking (media=print/onload swap) with a <noscript>
fallback, on 225 pages.
Accessibility
- Add aria-label to 57 unlabeled newsletter email inputs.
- Add an sr-only <h1> to the three "My Route" pages (had no h1).
- Add an .sr-only utility class.
SEO
- Add meta descriptions to legal/msos-hub/support pages (en/mk/si).
Note: MK/SI meta descriptions are machine-drafted and should be proofread
by a native speaker before considering them final.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Proactive security & health pass. No live/exploitable vulnerabilities were
found; these changes remove information-disclosure surfaces and add
standard hardening.
- Remove publicly-downloadable 1.1 MB full source dump (code_export.txt)
and stray empty l.php; add code_export.txt to .gitignore.
- Exclude dev files/folders (*.sh, *.py, docs/, templates/, tools/,
README.md) from the rsync deploy so they never reach the live server.
- .htaccess: add X-Frame-Options, Referrer-Policy, Permissions-Policy,
and a report-only Content-Security-Policy; add defense-in-depth deny
block for dev/VCS files (robots.txt & sitemap.xml left served).
- .htaccess: fix root redirect to canonical msosorg.com + /en/.
- Swap 4 project-page YouTube embeds to youtube-nocookie.com so no
Google cookies are set before consent (GDPR).
- Add rel="noopener" to 30 team social links on the About Us pages.
- Harden esc() in my-route.js to also escape single quotes.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Fixed 3 SI event posts that were missing their </article> and </main> tags
- Replaced all punctuation em-dashes and spaced en-dashes (435 across 64 files)
with commas; normalized a SI date range to a hyphen to match EN/MK
- Verified the new Gallery + in-post gallery content is fully translated in
EN/MK/SI (headings, titles, links, nav labels) with no English leftovers
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Added the reusable lightbox gallery block to all 9 event posts in every
language (27 pages): shows 5 thumbnails + "+N more", opens the full-screen
viewer with the whole photo set
- Inserted inside <article> (before the author footer where present) so it
never breaks the sidebar/article flex layout
- Handled 3 SI posts that were missing their </article> tag by anchoring on
the newsletter section instead
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Reusable "Photos from the event" grid (shows 5 thumbnails + "+N more") that
opens a full-screen lightbox (arrows / keyboard / swipe / Esc); added to the
Meet Student Slovenia 2024 post as the pattern
- New css/components/_lightbox.css + setupLightbox() in main.js (injects one
shared overlay, wires any .js-lightbox grid)
- Mobile polish: gallery albums go single-column on phones, two on tablets;
event-gallery grid 3-up on mobile; lightbox sizing/controls tuned for small
screens
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Each album is now a bordered card with a resting shadow and clear separation
- Blue brand tint over the cover photos; fades on hover so images brighten
- Whole card lifts with a stronger shadow on hover (album-level, not per image)
- Clicking anywhere on a card opens the event story page (removed the lightbox)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Each album is now a compact collage card (1 large + 2 small photos) with a
"+N" overlay on the last tile; multiple cards per row (responsive grid)
- Title + photo count + "Read the story" link under each card
- All album photos remain in the DOM (hidden) so the lightbox still browses
the full set; clicking any tile opens the lightbox at that photo
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- New multilingual Gallery page (en/mk/si) with 9 event albums and a
keyboard-accessible lightbox (prev/next scoped per album)
- Reuses existing event photos; links each album to its event post
- New css/pages/_gallery.css + setupGallery() lightbox in main.js
- "Gallery" link added to the "What We Do" nav (desktop + mobile) site-wide
- Gallery URLs added to sitemap.xml with hreflang
- Landing "Every Student Has a Story": removed backdrop blur on the video
thumbnail, kept the bluish gradient tint
Note: images/original/ (458 MB of raw source photos, gitignored + unused by
the site) moved out of the working tree to reclaim disk.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
MSOS Hub page:
- "What you can do here": Porsche-style vertical image cards in a
continuous auto-scrolling marquee with edge fades (real photos placeholders)
- "A glimpse of the space": full-bleed band of 4 connected photos
- "A space we built together": full-bleed image banner with blue gradient overlay
- "Made possible by": partner logo tiles (Cultural Association + Ministry);
processed Ministry + Cultural Association logos from source art
- Copy/spacing polish; removed em-dashes; larger section spacing; deeper
final-CTA gradient so it no longer blends into the footer
Branding / partners:
- Per-language MSOS logos (SVG) in header + footer across all pages
- Partner carousel: added Ministry (wide variant), Cultural Association,
Embassy of North Macedonia, and Spletni Mojster (width-capped); de-duplicated
logos within each marquee group so new logos appear sooner
Footer:
- Build credit line (Spletni Mojster + Kristijan), clean centered text
- Synced MK/SI footers to EN (added missing About us + Timeline links)
Landing page:
- FAQ short CTA already avatar design (FAQ page kept its Email/Viber block)
- Swapped blurry stock video thumbnail for the real team photo
- Removed the intentional hero-background blur
Navigation:
- Mobile menu: use 100dvh so the language selector is reachable with submenus open
- Desktop: dropdown parents no longer navigate to dead "/#" links
Language suggestion banner:
- Dismissible, browser-language based banner suggesting the matching locale;
remembers choice in localStorage and waits for the cookie-consent choice
to avoid overlapping the consent card
Removed stale *.html.bak backup files.

On mobile, body already has padding-top:60px to clear the fixed header, but
every page ALSO added its own clearance — doubling it and leaving a ~60px
white gap under the menu (content sat too low). Trimmed each page's mobile
top offset so it relies on the body padding (matching .article-page, which
was already correct): page-content, support/hub/legal pages, and the
news-hub / news-article / blog / member heroes. Content now sits ~32-42px
under the header.
Also add a 32px top gap to .newsletter-cta on mobile so it no longer
touches the CTA/content above it.
CSS only.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Account holder on the bank card now shows the full legal name (…za
študentsko podporo in kulturno sodelovanje), matching the Official
information page, in all three languages
- Fix cramped spacing: the .sup-thanks rule had cut the partners section's
bottom padding to 24px, pushing the logos against the teal CTA; raised to
72px for clear separation
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Fix the hero: override the global flex-row .container so the eyebrow,
title and lead stack and centre (they were laid out in a row)
- Short name -> "Društvo MŠOS za študentsko podporo in kulturno sodelovanje"
(official kratki naziv, normal case) instead of "MSOS"
- Add the main activity row: SKD 94.999 (activities of other membership
organisations n.e.c.), and relabel S.15000 as the institutional sector
(SKIS). All three languages.

New legal/registration reference page at /{lang}/legal/ with the official
details: legal name, registered office, registration number (4128133000),
tax number (44932448), VAT status, SKIS activity, registration date, bank
(NLB d.d.), IBAN SI56 0284 3026 6115 703, SWIFT LJBASI2X, representative,
and contact. New css/pages/_legal.css. Linked as "Official information" in
the footer legal bar on all pages.
Also fills the Support page's bank-transfer card with the same real IBAN/
bank/SWIFT (placeholders removed). SEO block + hreflang + sitemap (210
pages) regenerated.
MK/SI labels AI-drafted -> native review. SWIFT LJBASI2X is inferred from
the IBAN bank code (02 = NLB) -> please double-check.

A promo page for the MSOS Hub — a renovated community/event space in
Ljubljana for gatherings up to 50 people. Sections: hero with quick facts,
the funding/partner story (Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade of North
Macedonia, Municipality of Ljubljana, Macedonian Cultural Association
"Macedonia"), what you can do here, what's inside (amenities), an image
placeholder gallery (photos pending — captioned), "made possible by", and a
booking CTA (mailto info@msosorg.com). New css/pages/_hub.css.
'MSOS Hub' added to the Who We Are dropdown (desktop + mobile) on all pages.
SEO block + hreflang + sitemap (207 pages) regenerated.
MK/SI translations are AI-drafted -> native review. Real photos to replace
the captioned placeholders when available.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
New donation/partnership landing page telling the MSOS story of being
community-built: hero, "built by the community" narrative, four ways to
support (partner/sponsor, donate, offer skills/space, spread the word),
"where your support goes" impact, a bank-transfer card (placeholder IBAN/
bank/SWIFT for the org to fill in), a partners thank-you marquee, and a
contact CTA (mailto info@msosorg.com). New css/pages/_support.css.
The header "Support MSOS" button (previously a dead <button>) now links to
/{lang}/support/ on all pages. SEO block + hreflang + sitemap regenerated.
MK/SI translations are AI-drafted -> native review. Bank details are
placeholders pending real IBAN/SWIFT.

- Remove the duplicate Privacy/Cookie links from the footer Organisation
column; keep them (plus Manage cookies) in the bottom legal bar
- Show both info@msosorg.com and info.msosorg@gmail.com in the privacy +
cookie policy prose (en/mk/si)
- Fix the privacy policy's now-false "no tracking cookies" sentence to
reflect consent-based Google Analytics (en/mk/si)
MK/SI policy text is AI-drafted -> native review.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The policy previously claimed the site set no tracking/analytics cookies
and showed no consent banner - both untrue after adding GA4. Updated
en/mk/si: revised "how we use cookies", added an Analytics cookie type
and a Google Analytics third-party entry (_ga/_gid, Consent Mode), and
rewrote the consent section to describe the banner + "Manage cookies"
withdrawal. Bumped last-updated date. MK/SI text AI-drafted -> review.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds a per-language "Manage cookies" link to the footer legal bar on all
201 pages, wired to window.msosOpenConsent() so visitors can change or
withdraw their choice at any time (GDPR requirement). Verified: decline ->
re-open via link -> accept flips analytics consent to granted.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- consent.js: self-contained, non-blocking bottom banner in EN/MK/SI,
remembers the choice in localStorage, links to the per-language cookie
policy. Accept -> gtag consent 'update' granted; Decline stays denied.
- Head GA snippet restores a returning visitor's prior "granted" choice
before the first hit; loads /consent.js on every page.
- Re-openable via window.msosOpenConsent() for a "manage cookies" link.
Verified in-browser: shows for new visitors, Accept grants + remembers,
reload keeps consent without re-prompting, Slovene text + /si/ policy link.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- gtag.js injected on all 201 pages via tools/seo_inject.py + on 404.html
- Consent Mode v2 defaults all storage to 'denied' (EEA-safe: tag loads,
no tracking cookies until a consent banner grants analytics_storage)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- Add datePublished/dateModified to Article JSON-LD on the 11 dated
articles (curated once from EN, applied to all languages)
- Replace og-default.jpg with the official brand OG image (1200x630)
- Add docs/launch-seo-checklist.md (go-live steps: redirects, Search
Console, analytics, rich-result validation, monitoring)
