- Rework the About Us hero so the eyebrow, title and description are overlaid on
the auto-rotating team images (centred, white, text-shadowed) exactly like the
landing hero, instead of sitting in a separate white band above them. Remove the
old page-header band and move its text into the hero. All three languages.
- Rename the "Who We Are" menu item from "Our team" to "About Us"
(MK "За нас", SI "O nas") across all pages; footer "About us" link unchanged.

Previously /llms.txt and /links-for-bots/ existed but were not linked anywhere,
so users/bots couldn't find them. Following Proxify's pattern, add a "For bots"
footer column (all 225 pages, EN/MK/SI) linking to category link lists and an
AI summary page.
build_botlinks.py now also generates:
/links-for-bots/blog|guide|projects/ per-section link lists (EN/MK/SI)
/links-for-bots/about-msos/ "Hey AI, learn about us" summary
/links-for-bots/ hub + /llms.txt

- "Good to know" callout across all Student Welcome Guide pages, pointing to
the "Was this page helpful?" box for reporting errors

All three languages (EN/MK/SI).

pages, plus two global fixes, plus matching English tweaks.
Per-page (MK):
- Landing: hero eyebrow/subtitle, story section, testimonials, FAQ block

Cyrillic names, form step + success text

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.

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.

- 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

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.

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.

tax number (44932448), VAT status, SKIS activity, registration date, bank
(NLB d.d.), IBAN SI56 0284 3026 6115 703, SWIFT LJBASI2X, representative,

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.

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>
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 branded 1200x630 og-default.jpg; article pages use their hero as
og:image, others use the default
- Wire the existing (previously unlinked) favicon set into every page
- Add branded 404.html with root-absolute paths + noindex
- Emit Article + localized BreadcrumbList JSON-LD on all article pages
- Convert 74 heavy served photos to WebP (28MB -> 8.5MB, -70%), rewrite
references, add loading=lazy/decoding=async to below-fold images and
fetchpriority=high to heroes (protect LCP)
- Stop tracking images/original/ (458MB of unused source masters; kept on
disk, gitignored) and ignore .playwright-mcp/
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
SEO (all 201 pages, en/mk/si):
- Inject canonical, hreflang (en/mk/sl + x-default), Open Graph, Twitter
cards and Organization JSON-LD via idempotent SEO:START/END block
- Generate multilingual sitemap.xml (xhtml:link alternates) + robots.txt
- Curated meta descriptions for lead-less pages (home, become-a-member,
faq, news hub, my-route); every page now has a description
- Absolute URLs target final domain msosorg.com, not the temp host
- Add reusable tools/seo_inject.py (+ README)
Content fixes:
- Translate about-us and timeline-and-milestones into MK + SI, wire up
their pages, and repair the previously-dead "Who We Are" nav links
across all mk/si pages
- Remove duplicate en/projects/makedonska-studentska-vecer-vo-ljubljana
(unreferenced; already covered by macedonian-student-night-in-ljubljana)
Locale correctness:
- Normalise Slovene pages to <html lang="sl"> (correct ISO 639-1)
- Map sl->si in main.js so the language-switcher highlight and newsletter
i18n keep working on Slovene pages (data-lang="si" still maps to /si/)
MK/SI translations and descriptions are AI-drafted; flag for native review.

Navigation
- Replace "Donate" with a "Support MSOS ❤️" CTA site-wide
- Remove dead nav links (Gallery, Press releases)
- Turn the one-item News dropdown into a direct link
Homepage
- Replace the non-functional "Become part" contact form with a
"Find your people in Slovenia" join CTA (blue/white gradient band,
orange button, photo collage), in all three languages
- Fix the placeholder Activities subtitle
- Redesign Activities into card-style tabs with icons; move per-tab
content into HTML panels and switch by index so the tabs work in
every language (MK/SI tabs were previously dead)
Newsletter (MailerLite)
- Add the subscribe block to the News hub, news articles, and every
events/projects page and hub, in all three languages
- Resize/rebalance the block, shrink the privacy line, add top spacing
- Standardise on honest copy (drop the "2,000+ subscribers" claim)
- Load main.js on the News hub pages (they shipped without it, so the
form and header dropdowns didn't work there)
- Fix a dead privacy-policy link on the makedonska-vecer page
- Document the signup convention in docs/newsletter-signup.md

The "Get Involved" dropdown (Become a member / Support MSOS) had dead href="#"
links and only duplicated the two top-right buttons (Become a member, Donate).
Removed it site-wide (desktop + mobile, en/si/mk) - 390 blocks across 195 pages,
including the privacy-policy header the generators slice from, so regeneration
stays clean. Nav is now Who We Are / What We Do / For Students / News + the two
pill buttons.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Mobile fixes (article, guide, get-to-know, projects pages):
- Remove duplicate main.js include site-wide. footer.js emitted a
<script src=main.js> inside the footer block while pages also load one
before </body>, so DOMContentLoaded ran twice and every tap toggled the
mobile menu / article TOC twice (net no-op). Menu and TOC only worked on
the homepage. Now exactly one main.js per page, before </body>.
- Kill horizontal overflow: add overflow-x: clip to html/body (clips the
off-canvas mobile nav panel without breaking position: sticky, unlike
overflow-x: hidden).
- Reset align-items to stretch in the mobile .article-layout-container
rule; the desktop flex-start made .article-container size to max-content
width in a column flexbox and overflow the viewport.
Membership form hardening (Become a Member):
- Honeypot field + localStorage cooldown (30s gap, max 3/24h) + stronger
email regex; trilingual cooldown alert message.
- Apps Script (setup doc): per-email auto-reply dedupe + daily send cap;
applicant reply is a plain thank-you that never echoes submitted answers.
- Draft HTML welcome email (email-welcome-preview.html) for later use.

New trilingual /<lang>/become-a-member/ conversion page: hero with real-photo collage, why-join benefits, animated MSOS-in-numbers, ways to participate, membership-in-real-life and projects showcase (real project photos), testimonials, who-can-join, an adaptive multi-step form (student + supporter flows, conditional fields, progress, personalised messages, validation, success screen), FAQ and final CTA. Site-wide 'Become a member' buttons now link here. Form posts to a Google Form once wired; metrics/testimonials are placeholders to confirm.

New /<lang>/news/ hub aggregates real projects (title+image read from their pages), placeholder news announcements, and blog items, newest-first with type badges and a type filter. Homepage Latest news now shows the newest dated items as badged cards with a working See all to the hub; the News menu link points there too. Dates in news.js are placeholders to replace with real publish dates.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Remove 'Mentorship Programme' and 'Open calls' from the menus, rename 'Announcements' to 'News and Announcements', and wire the Blog link. Add a trilingual /<lang>/blog/ page with a distinct look: featured strip, client-side topic filters, and a masonry card wall with colour-coded tags (placeholder posts for now).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
New /<lang>/faq/ page (en/si/mk) with categorised accordion Q&A that link into the Student Welcome Guide, plus a contact/Viber block. Nav 'FAQs' links and 'See all FAQs' buttons across the site now point to it.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Flags: replace flag-icons CDN with local SVGs (images/flags/{gb,si,mk}.svg) referenced as CSS backgrounds, so no external dependency and no per-page path issues. Partners: replace the static home-page logo row with a seamless auto-scrolling, hover-pausing marquee (CSS-only, reduced-motion aware, edge fade).
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Desktop dropdown and mobile modal now show circular country flags (flag-icons) with clean language names and an active-language highlight, driven by the page lang via main.js.

Complete the two country sections with the place, food, culture, and
heritage stories, so every hub card now leads to a full article instead
of a pending page.
Articles (EN/SI/MK each):
- Slovenia: Lake Bled Beyond the Famous View, A First Taste of Slovenian
Food, Slovenian Habits That May Surprise You, and Slovenia's Stories in
Stone and Tradition.
- Macedonia: Ohrid, More Than a Postcard, plus the earlier Skopje and
Ljubljana stories that were still untracked.
- Table, Music and Dance, and History articles for Macedonia are in place
and still use image placeholders until their photos are sourced.
Images:
- Real, sourced photos wired into every finished article, each with an
attribution caption (place, photographer where known, source link).
Images are center-cropped to a uniform 3:2 and downscaled; webp and
jfif sources converted to jpg.
- Each article's hero image is reused on its hub card.
- Welcome to Macedonia now opens with Macedonia Square in Skopje; the
Church of St. John at Kaneo photo moves to the Ohrid story.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Launch the two country sections as a cultural bridge, following the
approved Phase A spec and reusing the Events & Projects structure.
Hubs (6 pages, EN/SI/MK each):
- get-to-know-slovenia and get-to-know-macedonia
- Section header + newsletter form, 6-category filter (Places & Nature,
Culture & Traditions, Food & Flavours, History & Heritage,
People & Identity), 6 launch cards, empty state, client-side pagination.
- Five cards per hub link to articles that arrive in later batches.
Articles (6 pages, EN/SI/MK each):
- Welcome to Slovenia and Welcome to Macedonia, full text with the
auto-generated table of contents and sticky mobile header.
- Real, sourced images with attribution captions (place, photographer,
source link). Wikimedia photos also link the CC BY-SA licence and note
that the image was cropped. Images center-cropped to a uniform 3:2 and
downscaled. Each article's hero image is reused on its hub card.
Site-wide:
- Wire the For Students menu links (desktop and mobile) to the new hubs on
every page and in the header templates; rename the menu label from
North Macedonia to Macedonia (formal name kept in body content).
- Placeholder styles for images and cards still awaiting a sourced photo.
- Add caption styling for the hero image and give the article table of
contents clear separation from the footer.
