Users (Tools > Users)
- Everyone can update their display name, email and password; administrators can add,
edit, invite (one-time link), block and delete accounts.
- Accounts in config.local.php stay locked to config (the main administrator); CMS
accounts live in data/users.json. Sign-in is by login name.
- Roles are now editor and administrator (publisher is an alias of editor).
- Account protection: password hashes only (12-72 characters), administrator password
confirmation for sensitive actions, rate-limited failures, hashed single-use invite
tokens, self-lockout guards, sessions of blocked/deleted users end on the next request,
every account event audited without secrets.
- dataDirectory can move data outside the web root; the dashboard recommends it.
Media library
- Upload images, documents, video and audio, sorted into four categories by extension.
- Extension allow-list; executables, scripts, HTML/SVG, archives, legacy and macro Office
files refused; content sniffing; files containing code refused; PDFs with scripts refused;
Office/OpenDocument packages inspected for macros and embedded objects.
- Media library button in the editor inserts an image, document link, video or audio.
Navigation menus, pages and interface
- The site scan detects primary/secondary navigation and seeds Navigation Menus; menus can be
renamed, edited and deleted but not created by the CMS; a scan button finds new navigation.
- New page wizard (template, name, navigation group) in the Pages dialogue; new pages stay
private drafts until published; pages can be used as templates.
- Deleted pages can be recovered from the Dashboard.
- Full-width top bar with the user at the top right, device icons, consistent buttons.
Tests and docs updated (tests/run.php, README, ARCHITECTURE, DEVELOPMENT, CHANGELOG).
