- 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.

- 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/

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.

- Update the residence-permit "sufficient means" figure to 507,43 EUR/month
(Slovenian basic minimum income from 1 April 2026, source gov.si) across the
guide, FAQ, budget note, sample parent statement and my-route tip; replaces
the old 484,88 everywhere.
- New standalone news announcement page /<lang>/news/proof-of-means-updated-2026/
(trilingual), published 1 August 2026, with a clickable gov.si source box and a
hero image (Pixabay, credited). news.js now supports announcement items
(slug + body) and shows them newest-first on the homepage and News hub; the
image doubles as the card thumbnail. Optimised 6.98MB to 255KB.
- Switch English EUR amounts to European format (comma decimal, dot thousands):
507,43 / 9.600 / 1.000 etc. Only euro-prefixed amounts are touched, so SI/MK
(which use a euro suffix) are unaffected. New generator eurofmt.js.
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.

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).

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.

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).

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.

Add legal name, real social links (FB/IG/LinkedIn/YouTube), clickable email, guide and section navigation, and 2026 copyright. All links depth-correct per page and translated per language.

Adds role, faculty (typed), and budget fields; the configurator now navigates to a new per-language results page (my-route/) carrying the answers in the URL. The results page renders a branded, printable report: profile chips, tailored ordered steps, city/budget/role/level focus tips, key page links, a disclaimer, and a Save-as-PDF/print button (print CSS shows only the report). my-route.js also has a Google Form hook to collect the profile for demographics once configured.

Adds a 5-card featured row (journey, deadlines, eVS apply, residence permit, accommodation) above the stages, and converts the six stage cards into native details/summary accordions (first open by default, chevron rotates). Links inside open into a compact grid. Cuts the empty white space and visual noise.

Replaces the flat crowded quicklink wall with six numbered stage cards (Start here, Apply to study, Residence and healthcare, Move and settle in, Everyday student life, After your first year), each with an icon, a one-line description, and its topic links. New guide-cats/guide-cat styles; section retitled to Find your way through the guide.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Adds a reusable {video} block (responsive 16:9 youtube-nocookie embed) rendered as a prominent orange callout with title and caption, placed right after the warning box on evs-application-guide so students see it first. Trilingual title/caption.

Voting now locks the widget for the page view (buttons disabled, chosen one highlighted, thank-you shown); reload to vote again. Fixes the CSS bug where display:flex overrode the hidden attribute so buttons stayed clickable. On No, an optional comment box posts to a separate Comment field. Adds a guarded [hidden] rule and selected/disabled/comment styles.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
Every guide page and the landing now end with a help section: an Email us contact, a prominent Viber community join button, and a Was this page helpful Yes/No widget. guide-feedback.js records the vote in localStorage and on No invites emailing MSOS or asking in Viber; it exposes a sendVote hook for later central collection.

Studentski dom place, the faculty-brokered non-subsidised route (Dijaski dom Vic), and
the free m2 room-brokerage contact (Studentska hisa SRCe, 080 98 67, svetovalnica.com/sobe).

life, study cities, budget, wellbeing, renewal, and official

SI/MK bodies of dense administrative content still need a native
proofread before publishing.
