# Documentation release notes — 9 September 2026

This edition contains eleven coordinated guides, including a dedicated
**How to use Half-Mind.com for new users** and a reusable **site description**.
The site user guide and admin guide now cover the latest prepared features.

## Added or corrected

- Continent Clubs at 3/4/5/6/7, the world-map badge and pending classifications.
- Nine old areas kept separate from the new real-continent field.
- Country editor, initial migration proposals, review process and pdb connection fix.
- Exact-name kennel search, personalized profile link and retained global rank.
- Fun certificate, real PDF preview/download, embedded fonts, details and CSV.
- Removed older statements that export/milestones source had not been inspected.
- Recorded map-versus-export indexing differences and PDF character limitations.
- Updated deployment, backup, content, troubleshooting and test-status guidance.

## Included files

Editable Markdown and printable HTML for every guide; an offline index; an
updated authenticated docs.php with an explicit allowlist; legacy README and
backup-guide entry points. Documentation contains no credentials or member records.
Static HTML is not protected simply because it is inside siteadmin.

## Installation and status

This is a documentation update only. It does not change authentication, passwords,
database schema/records, maps or export code. Read INSTALL.txt for upload paths.
The publication date is not a live-site verification date. Features are described
from supplied source and generated packages; check their installed versions.

## Maintaining the set

Edit Markdown, regenerate the matching HTML and refresh guide lists together.
Keep examples free of secrets. Record meaningful test evidence and distinguish
prepared files from confirmed deployment. The site user and new-user guides
should stay focused on user tasks; put technical caveats in admin/reference
sections where possible.
