Changelog

Version 1.2.2 – 10-11-2026

DRAMA COMMENTS SYSTEM & MODERATION (NEW FEATURE)
*   [Multi-Platform / Feature] Full Drama Comments System: Implemented an end-to-end interactive commenting system across the Website (Next.js 15), Native Android App (Jetpack Compose), and Flutter App.
*   [Admin Panel] Per-Drama Comment Control: Added an `allowComments` toggle switch in `/admin/series/edit/[id]` and `/admin/series/add` to easily enable or disable user comments on individual dramas.
*   [Admin Panel] Comments Moderation Dashboard (`/admin/comments`): Added a dedicated Comments Management page to the Admin Sidebar (with `MessageSquare` icon). Admins can view all comments, view commenter details (avatar, username, email, ID), view associated drama titles with direct edit links, search/filter by drama or user, edit comment text via a modal dialog, and permanently delete comments.
*   [Website] Series Detail Interactive Comments: Added a Comments button next to Like/Save/Share in the drama action bar and a complete comments section with user avatars, real-time relative timestamps, comment counter, and seamless sign-in modal triggers for guest users.
*   [Android App] Material 3 Comments Bottom Sheet: Integrated `CommentsBottomSheet` across `DramaDetailScreen.kt`, `ShortsScreen.kt`, and `VideoPlayerScreen.kt`. Fixed an edge-to-edge layout issue where the Android 3-button system navigation bar (Back/Home/Recents) overlapped the comment input field by applying `navigationBarsPadding()` and `imePadding()` on a dedicated `Surface`, allowing comfortable typing above the software keyboard.
*   [Flutter App] Comments Bottom Sheet: Integrated `CommentsBottomSheet` across `drama_detail_screen.dart`, `shorts_screen.dart`, and `video_player_screen.dart`.
*   [Backend API] Comments Endpoints: Implemented `/api/comments` and `/api/mobile/v1/comments` (GET, POST, DELETE) with MongoDB persistence, supporting both session-based web auth and mobile API keys.

INSTALLATION WIZARD & LICENSE ACTIVATION FIXES
*   [Installation Wizard] Resilient License Verification: Resolved `Unexpected token '<', "<!DOCTYPE "... is not valid JSON` when activating licenses in Step 1 of `/install`.
*   [Backend / MongoDB] Safe Database Initialization: Refactored `mongodb.ts` to prevent top-level module crashes when `MONGODB_URI` is not yet configured, enabling the installer to load and verify licenses before database setup.
*   [Installation Wizard] Triple-Fallback Activation: Updated `install-wizard.tsx` with a multi-layered verification strategy: local API route -> safe Server Action fallback -> direct CORS validation against `devsnaplix-api.gadohost.com`.
*   [Central Licensing API] CORS Support: Added full CORS headers (`OPTIONS`, `Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *`) to `devsnaplix-api` for seamless direct browser validation.

BUILD & SERVER DEPLOYMENT OPTIMIZATIONS
*   [Next.js Build] Resolved `pages-manifest.json` ENOENT Error: Added `src/pages/_app.tsx` and `src/pages/_document.tsx` alongside Webpack compiler hooks in `next.config.ts`, ensuring Next.js 15 App Router never fails with missing `pages-manifest.json` on GadoHost, cPanel, or Docker.
*   [Build Scripts] Clean Cross-Platform NPM Scripts: Removed `cross-env NODE_OPTIONS=--max-old-space-size=2048` and prebuild scripts from `package.json`, resolving `sh: 1: cross-env: not found` errors on minimal Linux servers/VPS while keeping memory optimizations inside `next.config.ts`.

CONTENT & CUSTOM PAGES FIXES
*   [Website / Admin] Fixed text bunching and formatting on Custom Pages (`/p/[slug]`): Implemented structured HTML formatting (`page-formatter.ts`), line-break retention, and enhanced the Admin Custom Page Editor with an interactive toolbar (bold, lists, headings) and live preview.
