Adds /api/bible-passage server route that proxies the Berean Standard Bible
from Bolls.life per-verse, with in-memory caching. Study lesson scripture
block now displays live BSB text instead of static passageText. Adds
bibleBook field to StudyProgram so admins can set the book name explicitly
when the study slug doesn't match (e.g. a study titled "ephesians-part-2").

Newsletter nudge — was calling /api/study-account/profile (wrong endpoint, ignored subscription). Now correctly calls /api/study-account/preferences with PATCH.
Security:
Email regex — replaced the permissive [^\s@]+@[^\s@]+ pattern with a proper RFC-compliant regex in contact.js and downloads.js
Avatar magic bytes — server now checks actual PNG/JPEG/GIF/WEBP header bytes, not just the data URL prefix
Certificate rate limit — public /api/public/certificate/:token now has a 30 req/15min limiter
Session absolute TTL — admin sessions now have a 30-day hard cap; a stolen token can no longer be kept alive indefinitely by passive reads
Account lockout — 5 failed logins locks a study account for 1 hour
CSP headers — Content-Security-Policy, X-Frame-Options, X-Content-Type-Options, and Referrer-Policy headers added globally
Data integrity:
Cascade delete — deleting a study account now also removes their certificates, community posts, comments, and progress file
UX / reliability:
Escape key on modals — all 3 modal groups (study index, notes, account) now close on Escape
Display name min-length — empty spaces-only names rejected; if provided, must be ≥2 chars
Note save rate limit — 30 saves/minute per user max
Analytics fetch timeout — 5s AbortController so a hanging server doesn't block the browser indefinitely
Email validation on signup — frontend catches bad email formats before hitting the server
Cleanup:
Deduplicated download forms — StudyDownloadForm and ResourceDownloadForm now share a single DownloadForm base; both are now thin wrappers
- **Tag filter bar** appears above the grid whenever any download has tags assigned. Chips for "All" + each unique tag, centered under the heading.
- **Clicking a tag** filters the grid to only matching downloads. Clicking the active tag again (or "All") clears the filter.
- **Empty state** — if a tag has no results it shows a friendly message instead of a blank grid.
- The filter only shows when tags exist — so it's invisible today (your 3 current downloads have no tags) and appears automatically once you start tagging items in the admin.
To use it: go to Admin → Downloads → edit a download item → add tags like `Colossians`, `Worksheet`, `Devotional`. Those tags will show up as filter chips on the public page instantly after publishing.
