There will be no courses. What was there: one draft called "jk" with two empty
lessons, and 4,000 lines of code around it — courses, modules, lessons,
enrolments, per-lesson progress, SCORM, BigBlueButton, completion certificates,
three React pages, a router, two models.
Its real cost was everywhere else. Every query that measured practice had to
remember `Quiz.course_id.is_(None)`, and forgetting it in one place would have
silently mixed course attempts into a learner's analytics; the bank predicate
carried a subquery to exclude a course's own questions from every search,
recommendation and share; quiz access had a second, parallel rule about
enrolment. All of that is gone, so the remaining rules say what they mean.
`quizzes.allow_review` goes with it. It was only ever enforced for a course
quiz, so it had become a promise nothing keeps — the public session page was
still offering "no answer review" about sessions that review fine.
The fixtures' question 5 lived in a course quiz and stood for "a question that
exists but is not in your bank". There is no such thing now — a question is in
the bank unless it is deleted — so the counts it kept out of the numbers are
back in, and the tests that turned on it now turn on deletion or on the
attempt that actually holds a question.
Files the LMS uploaded stay on disk and stay protected: LEGACY_LMS_PREFIXES in
app/utils/upload_access.py is what keeps them unreachable.

Four things that share a spine, so they arrive together.
**Folders.** A hand-picked set of questions, and the fourth thing a grant can
name beside exam, discipline and category. Deliberately not `user_collections`
with a sharing flag: a library is a consequence of access — you save what you
can already see — while a folder is a source of it, and one table holding
thousands of private lists beside a handful that confer permission is one
mistake away from a leak. Built from the question manager, granted on /access.
Membership stays with the owner and moderators so a grantee cannot widen their
own reach, and deleting a folder takes its grants with it.
Two live constraints had to be rewritten to accept it: `ck_grant_has_a_dimension`
and `uq_grant_dimensions` both predate `folder_id`, so a folder-only grant
failed the check and two folder grants collided on the unique index.
**Per-question feedback.** The learner's half already existed. What was wrong
was who could read it: any grant at all let an educator list and delete reports
about the whole bank. Reports are now scoped by `question_scope_predicate`, the
same predicate that decides which questions that educator can see, and a reply
thread makes the report a conversation the learner can follow rather than a
form that swallows what they said.
**Per-section notes and article feedback.** Two tables on purpose:
`article_section_notes` is private to whoever wrote it, `article_feedback` goes
to whoever maintains the article. Both point at the section id inside
`articles.sections` rather than at `article_section_index`, whose rows are
dropped on unpublish — a cascade from there would delete a learner's writing
because an educator took an article down for an afternoon. A rename keeps a
note attached; a deleted section leaves it marked orphaned under the heading it
was written on, for its writer alone to remove.
The header's feedback badge covers both, because questions and reading are the
same job to whoever is doing it.

The exam player takes the window. The shell was sized against the header with
a number that did not include the navbar's own 32px of margin, so the block bar
— the one thing on the screen that must always be reachable — sat below the
fold and had to be scrolled to. Exam mode now hides the site chrome entirely
and is the viewport, which makes the arithmetic honest and matches what a board
looks like: item and block in a box at the left, the two arrows in the middle,
the tools at the right, the question-status rail down the side, and the clock,
Pause and End Block along the bottom.
Shortcuts is gone from the bar, and the labs open into the column beside the
question in both modes rather than a box over it.
Nothing is handed in behind the learner's back. The clock reaching zero stops
the block and says so; closing Time's Up submits, and the player stays put
showing the answers, which is the review. The server no longer settles an
expired attempt at all — listing sessions used to mark any paper whose clock
had run out, so opening a page could score a block the learner had walked away
from, and the first they knew of it was a result.
Reviewing an attempt is now the player with the answers in, not a dropdown and
a card. Same rail, same layout, same labs, same way out — and on a phone the
same burger opens the same question list, from one shared rule about which
routes are a session.
Also: the rule-out toggle sits beside its option instead of pinned to the far
edge of the card, so an option box is as wide as its own words; the voice
picker leaves the player, since a reader's voice is a setting and not a
decision to retake every session; figures carry no invented "Figure 1" — a
label is what prose refers to, and the backfill knew of no prose, so 346 of
them said only that an image was an image; and the landing page shows the two
modes happening rather than promising six things in a sentence.

The session analysis ranked its weakest topics by primary category only,
while the Analysis page asked the same question three ways and rolled
answers up the category tree. Two sets of rules for "where does this
question belong" is two pages that can disagree about a learner and
neither able to explain why.
So the rules moved to services/knowledge_groups.py: ancestor roll-up,
article reached through its category, organ system reached through the
symptom keyword. study_tools now asks that service instead of building
the lookups inline, and GET /attempts/{id}/recommendations gives one
session the same Articles / Disciplines / Systems switch. Grouping is its
own call, so changing it does not re-read the question table and the peer
statistics beside it. A running exam ranks nothing — marking it there
would answer the question the exam is asking.
The ungrouped `recommendations` key is gone from the analysis payload
along with the code that built it.
And the document page had no way back. It is reached from the Tools
workbench, which by design has no menu of its own, so leaving it meant
the browser button. It opens onto Tools now, as Tools opens onto
Settings.

Opening a tip before answering is a nudge. The answer that follows is
still right — it is counted as right, and the percentage is not docked —
but it is not the same as right, so it keeps its own arc on the donut and
its own line in the legend: "3 correct after a tip".
attempt_answers.used_hint records it. The player reports which questions
had a tip opened before the answer went in; a tip read afterwards is
revision and does not count, which is the difference two of the tests
turn on. Both endings agree about it — an explicit submit carries the
list, and an exam that runs out takes it from the saved progress, so a
tab closing cannot launder a score.
Found while wiring this: RichText declared its component overrides inline
in the render, so every one was a fresh component type and React
remounted the whole rendered tree on each render. An open tip closed
itself every time the exam clock ticked. The map is memoised now.

Sitting the same questions again is practice, not a new measurement. You
have already seen the answers, so getting them right the second time
says nothing about whether you knew them — and it cannot be allowed to
raise a figure that means "how much of this do you know". A repeated
session is titled "(repetition)", analysed in full on its own page, and
left out of every aggregate: the overall accuracy, the per-quiz history,
the averages, and the readiness that drives recommendations.
Deleting a single session is gone — control, endpoint, tests and all. A
session is a record of work done, and removing one edits the history
every figure on the analysis is computed from, which turns a measurement
into a number somebody chose. Starting again is still offered whole,
under Settings, Your data, which takes everything rather than the parts
that flatter.
Two layout bugs behind that. The category tree kept its appearance in
QuestionBankPage.css, so it looked right on the bank and took whatever
the host page did to a label everywhere else — in the question editor
that centred the name, leaving it adrift with the count at the far
right; it owns its own stylesheet now. And the editor's grid collapsed
to `1fr` below 900px, whose automatic minimum lets one unshrinkable
child push the column past the window: the page had padding down its
left and none down its right because the right was off the screen.

Unanswered questions were counted as wrong in every percentage the site
reports. That made leaving an exam early look like failing it, and made
the figure say more about how far you got than about how well you did —
and how far you got is already the number sitting beside it.
An unanswered question is not a wrong answer. It is not an answer.
score_percent() and answered_counts() give the rule one definition, used
by all seven places that reported a percentage: submission, attempt
history, per-quiz history, the overall average, per-quiz stats, one
attempt's detail, and the session analysis. The list endpoints count in
one query rather than one per row.
The review dialog said unanswered questions count as incorrect, which
was true and is not any more. It now says they will not be marked wrong,
and will not be marked.

The card offered Review answers and Resume session at once on a session
still in progress, which is the muddle: there is nothing to review yet
and nothing to resume once it is done. It is one or the other now, and
what decides it is whether anything is left to answer — not whether it
was an exam or a study session, which have the same two states as each
other. A study session keeps going until every question is answered and
becomes the review at that point, without waiting to be handed in.
Repeat is offered either way. The questions worth sitting again are
worth sitting again now.
"Skipped" meant gone past, and was shown for questions in a session
still running that had not been reached. Those read "not yet answered".
And a timed block is now ninety seconds a question, set from the count
rather than asked for. Choosing a limit is a decision nobody has the
information to make — the pace belongs to the exam being rehearsed, not
to a preference — and a block sat at the wrong pace teaches the wrong
pace. Forty questions is an hour. An explicit limit is still honoured.

Opening the analysis of a live attempt graded it whatever the mode. In
an exam that is a way to answer, look at whether it was right, and go
back and change it — the exam defeated rather than analysed. It reports
progress now: how many are answered, how long it is taking, and each row
as answered or not. No score, no percentage, and the donut counts how
far through it is instead of how much of it is right.
Study mode still grades live, because study mode marks each answer as it
is given; there is nothing here it has not already said.
Recommendations are withheld too, which is stricter than AMBOSS — they
show a dash for correct and then list the topics to go back to, which
says which questions were wrong by another route. A recommendation is a
verdict.
The withholding stops the moment the exam is over, submitted or expired:
settle_if_expired grades through the same function a manual submit does
and sets completed_at, and everything opens from there.
Tested on both sides, because this is an integrity rule and would come
back quietly the next time the live-analysis path was touched.

Comments are gone. A thread under every question was a discussion nobody
moderated, and what it was used for was telling an educator something was
wrong. That is now feedback: a private report, carrying the question id,
that someone is expected to act on.
* Give feedback sits in the question bar's new "more" menu, beside Save
and Share — occasional actions, folded away rather than each taking a
slot in a bar read on every question.
* An educator gets a badge of what is outstanding. Each row names the
question and opens its editor, where the report sits beside the field
it is about; reply, resolve, reopen or delete from there.
* Resolving keeps the report. A question with a history of the same
complaint should visibly have one; deleting is for the ones that were
never about the question.
* A granted educator sees only their own branch. The badge answers
quietly with zero for someone with no access, so the header can ask
without first working out who is asking.
The question bank is now the Qbank: create a session, and the last three
with Resume. Its facets, tag tree and create-a-quiz were a second copy of
the custom-session page; marking and folders belong in the player while
you are sitting a question. Import and export moved to the question
manager, which is the one place questions are managed, and which now has
a Preview that opens over the list instead of a page you have to come
back from.
Fixed while there: a session in progress analysed as 0/0 with an empty
table, because the analysis read attempt_answers — written on submit —
while the session list counted the saved progress. They read the same
thing now. The category trail is gone from the player: it named the
answer's own topic and led out of a session part-way through. An option's
reasoning opens on click and closes on the next one.

question_media replaced the two filename columns months ago: any number
of figures per question, each with a role, a label the prose can refer
to, a caption and an order. Only the editor's own endpoint ever read
them. The editor showed the two legacy text fields, and the player and
the answer review rendered the legacy paths — so the model existed and
nothing used it.
- FigureManager in the question editor: add from the image bank, name,
caption, reorder, remove, per role. A figure with no caption is called
out, because a caption is how anyone finds it again. The image id is
shown, since that is what the link survives a rename by.
- FigureStrip on the player and the review. Explanation figures are
labelled thumbnails that open full size and page between them — a
stack of full-width radiographs between two paragraphs pushes the
explanation off the screen, and "as in Figure 2" needs Figure 2 to be
named where it sits. A stem figure stays full size: it is the question.
- question_figures.py is the single place rows become what a page
renders, so the three views cannot disagree.
- Explanation figures are withheld until answers are revealed, the same
rule the explanation itself follows.
The legacy paths still render where a question was never backfilled, so
nothing that worked before stops working.

Two bugs, one visible cause. `.an-page`, `.an-rail` and four more classes
were defined in both AnalysisPage.css and AnalysisSessionPage.css with
different values — one a 280px grid, the other 260px. Once the two pages
shared a rail both stylesheets loaded together, the later won, and the
content column collapsed to rail width: "General Pediatrics" wrapped one
letter per line and the table headers floated away from their rows.
AnalysisShell now owns the frame and the session list for both views.
The page stylesheets style their content and nothing else.
And a session nobody has sat is no longer a bespoke "nothing here" panel.
GET /attempts/quiz/{id}/analysis answers with the same shape at zero —
0%, 0/20, every row "skipped" — so it is visibly the same page the
learner will see filled in, with a line saying why the figures are zero
and Start below. A part-finished session says how many are outstanding
and offers Resume. Once an attempt exists the quiz address returns the
real analysis, so both ways in reach the same page.
Mobile: below 1000px the rail becomes a band above the content that
starts closed — on a phone the first thing on screen should be the
analysis asked for. Search field is 16px on touch so iOS does not zoom
the page in and refuse to zoom back out; rail rows are 44px targets.

An unsuspended exam keeps running. When its clock runs out it is
submitted with what was answered and the score counts — a learner who
ran out of time sat an exam, which is a result and not an accident to
hide. Previously it was graded, flagged expired=1, excluded from every
statistic, and the client was told the opposite ("submit manually").
- attempt_expiry.settle_if_expired: one path, used by resume and by the
sessions list, so an exam left open elsewhere shows its score rather
than "in progress" forever. Suspended attempts hold their clock and
never expire.
- resume returns {expired_submitted, attempt_id}; the client opens the
analysis. The suspend dialog and the leave warning now say what
actually happens.
- delete: saved progress and device lock cleared; a study-plan block
whose only completed attempt is deleted goes back to unfinished.
- POST /attempts/reset-all: typed RESET, removes attempts, answers,
in-progress state, plan progress, reading marks, saved questions and
question notes; leaves the account, authored content and AI chats.
Settings → Your data, with the counts reported afterwards.
Also fixed on the way: the first version of the sessions-list change
mutated the dict it was iterating; the test only passed because it had
one attempt. Now two.

From the three recordings and the AMBOSS screenshots.
Study plans
- Blocks of about 40, split evenly: 202 questions is six blocks of
33-34, not five of 50 and one of 2. Reseeded (no progress or reading
existed yet); the seeder now splits the same way.
- A block has its own page, laid out as a course module: the plan's
blocks down the left, this block's reading then its session in the
middle, back / previous / next along the bottom. Study or exam mode
is chosen there, before the session exists; afterwards the mode is
shown, not offered. The plan page is the table of contents and links
into blocks rather than starting anything.
- Progress on a block comes from the same /quizzes/sessions row the
Sessions page shows, so the two cannot disagree.
Sessions <-> plans
- A session started from a block carries its place in the plan: the
session list and the analysis both return `plan` (plan, block,
position, previous and next block). The analysis shows a strip with
the way back to the block and on to the next one.
- Submitting a session marks its block complete. Nothing ever set
completed_at before — every block read as unfinished forever.
Recommendations
- Framed by the learner's chosen study objective: answers and bank
material linked to a different exam are left out, and the page is
titled for the exam. Unlinked material stays in, as elsewhere.

The linking was the gap
The marker system was built weeks ago — resolves by id, survives a rename, shows
a preview on hover — and not one of 333 articles used it. Every article was
written in isolation, so a piece on croup named stridor and epiglottitis and
offered no way to reach either. `scripts/link_articles.py` reads what is written
and links it: 3,718 cross-references across 307 articles, by id, so a later
rename cannot break them.
Conservative on purpose, because a wrong link is worse than a missing one: only
the first mention in a section, whole words, longest title first so "Otitis media
with effusion" beats "Otitis media", never inside an existing link, marker,
heading, code span or table, and never an article to itself.
That exposed a second thing: the reading view had its own Markdown pipeline with
its own cross-reference regex, and it only understood the old slug form. It would
have printed every one of those 3,718 links as literal brackets. Article prose
now goes through the same renderer as the rest of the site.
Short and Clinical looked empty
Both are usually a single section, and everything starts collapsed, so the tab
showed one heading over blank space. A view of one section is not a contents
page; it opens.
Removed
Quiz reminders — emailed nudges to retake anything under 75%, with a scheduler
that existed solely to send them: the model, the service, the scheduler, the
email, the table. Article comments. The dashboard's in-progress list and its
stat cards, both of which the analysis page now answers better.
One mistake worth recording: the first pass at removing the reminder cleanup used
a regex that took 109 lines with it, including an unrelated endpoint. The test
suite caught it (`/attempts/quiz/{id}/in-progress` returning 404 instead of 403),
and the file was restored and edited by exact match instead.

Figures
A question could carry exactly one stem image and one explanation image, each a
bare path with no title, no legend, and no way for the prose to refer to it.
`question_media` makes a figure a row: it points at an image already in the bank,
carries a role, a label the text can name ("Figure 1"), a caption and an order,
and there can be as many as the question needs. The same radiograph can serve two
questions without being stored twice.
The 346 existing paths were backfilled into figure records and retitled —
`page_339_img_0.png` says where a file came from and nothing about what it shows,
so the filename moved into the caption where it is still searchable, and the
title became something a person can read.
On the editor question: no new platform needed. Milkdown is already installed —
ProseMirror-based, MIT, GFM tables, code blocks, LaTeX — and already used for
articles, courses and the quick question modal. Only the question *page* still
has plain textareas, and that swap is written down rather than rushed, because
the stem carries manual-highlight offsets and a WYSIWYG rewrite would move them.
Fewer hints during a quiz
The category trail and the difficulty pill were shown beside every stem. Being
told a question is filed under Neonatology, or that it is "hard", narrows the
answer before the stem has been read. Both now wait until the answer is in,
where the trail becomes a way to more of the same topic.
The dashboard is about questions
Quizzes and attempts describe how the material happens to be packaged. What a
learner is working through is questions: how many of the bank they have seen,
how many they have answered correctly, and their average. The old per-quiz
performance card — which needed two attempts before it showed anything — is
gone, superseded by the session analysis. The greeting sits above "continue your
study" rather than below it, where it read as a heading for the wrong section.

The results page showed a score and a wall of explanations. What a learner needs
afterwards is where the time went and what to go back to, so
/analysis/session/:attemptId gives them: a rail of recent sessions, the four
figures they act on — correct, completed, time per question, total time — a
donut, the weakest topics, and a paginated table of every question with its
status, difficulty, time and how peers did on it.
Time per question was not recorded at all, so it could not be reported. It is
now (`attempt_answers.seconds_spent`), banked when you leave a question and
including the one still open at submission — without that the last question of
every session would show nothing. Answers from before this read "—" rather than
claiming zero, and a question nobody else has answered has no peer rate rather
than 0%, which would read as everyone having failed it.
Also in this pass, from the review:
* quiz categories are gone from the library — a second taxonomy beside the
real one, putting a heading above every test;
* the board review sets are numbered rather than dated, in both the quizzes
and the study plans built from the same material, so a learner does not meet
2019 in one place and VII in another;
* the footer's standing note is one clause, and the gap above it no longer
looks like the page ended early.
Everything else asked for today is written down in docs/TODO.md rather than
half-built: resume instead of restart, an unsuspended exam that keeps running,
deleting a session's data, reset-all-data with a warning, recommendations split
by article/discipline/system, and the adaptive session. Two questions I owe
answers to are in there too.

Recovery snapshot of the existing worktree before the Orthobullets-inspired revamp. Includes explanation images, classification snapshots, quiz visibility/resume fixes, quiz codes, TTS options and bot formatting. Secret heuristic and Python syntax checks passed; not a release or full behavioral validation.
Suspend now pauses the timer instead of letting it run out:
- 'Suspend & Leave' sends suspended=true with time_left to backend
- On resume, backend re-anchors started_at to now with held time_left
- Closing tab without suspending continues to run the timer (unchanged)
Timer-expired auto-submits are marked with expired=1 and excluded from:
- Attempt history (GET /attempts/history)
- Dashboard stats (quiz count, total attempts, average score)
- Attempt list (GET /attempts)
- DDL: ALTER TABLE quiz_attempts ADD COLUMN expired INTEGER DEFAULT 0
Course-quiz decoupling is preserved — these changes only touch
non-course quizzes (Quiz.course_id IS NULL).

- Model row overflow fixed (minWidth: 0 + ellipsis on model_id)
- Embedding model search shows all proxy models (no auto-filter by "embed")
- Navbar correctly excludes cancelled/failed jobs from "extracting" count
README:
- Added Rebuild & Restart section with commands
- Updated embedding model reference

Mobile touch fix:
- Added touch-action: manipulation and -webkit-tap-highlight-color: transparent
to .question-card .option CSS — prevents mobile browsers from interfering
with tap events (double-tap zoom, highlight flash, delayed clicks)
Documents hidden for regular users:
- Dashboard: stats card hides Documents count for non-moderators
- Dashboard: document list section completely hidden for non-moderators
- Documents API not called for non-moderators (saves a request)
Timer improvements:
- Custom timer input on ModeSelectScreen — set any number of minutes
for exam mode (overrides the quiz default, or add time to untimed quizzes)
- timeLeft saved to Redis progress every 1.5s (alongside answers, mode, voice)
- On resume: timer restarts from the saved remaining time
- Timer auto-submits when it reaches 0 (already worked, now also works on resume)
- Progress bar shows remaining time relative to what was left at resume
Nextcloud settings — server-side storage:
- GET /auth/me/settings — load user settings from Redis
- PUT /auth/me/settings — save settings to Redis (linked to user_id)
- SettingsPage loads Nextcloud config from server on mount
- Saves to BOTH server (cross-browser persistent) and localStorage (for UploadPage)
- Clear function wipes both server and localStorage
- Switching browsers and logging in restores Nextcloud settings
Also fixed: saved.attemptId → saved.attempt_id in ModeSelectScreen resume check

Root causes:
1. joinedload(Quiz.questions) was SLOWER (129ms vs 75ms) with the custom
secondary relationship — removed, back to lazy load
2. Redis progress could have stale attempt_id from a completed submission:
GET /attempts/progress now validates the attempt exists and is not completed
before returning; stale entries are auto-deleted
POST /attempts/{id}/submit now clears Redis progress server-side on submit
3. Navbar jobs polling was running every 4s even with no active jobs,
causing unnecessary requests — now polls every 30s when idle,
every 3s when jobs are actively running
Also cleared 3 stale Redis progress entries that were pointing to
already-completed attempts (which caused silent submit failures).

Extraction modes (no restart needed — code ready for next Celery deploy):
- New QuizCreate.extraction_mode field: standard|questions_only|two_step|regex|ai_decide
- extraction_modes.py: independent implementations that don't touch standard path
- questions_only: extract Q+options, correct_answer="PENDING" for manual fill
- two_step: separate answer key section scan + phase1/2/3 matching
- regex: AI detects answer pattern, generates regex, applies to full doc
- ai_decide: AI reads samples from start+end and picks strategy
- DocumentDetailPage: Extraction Mode dropdown with description per mode
- quiz_tasks.py: routes to correct mode, standard path completely unchanged
Database:
- Deleted 11 orphaned questions from PREP 2013 extraction (quiz 12 was already deleted)
- 268 questions remaining (all PREP 2012)
UI fixes:
- Nextcloud section in Settings now only shown to moderators/admins
(regular users can't upload PDFs so they don't need Nextcloud)
- Upload PDF already hidden in navbar for non-moderators (confirmed correct)
- Resume quiz: now async — study mode quiz data loaded BEFORE showing quiz
so correct_answer is available immediately for feedback
- Resume saves and restores voice selection
- voice field added to ProgressSave schema and Redis storage
- Progress save dependency includes selectedVoice
Attempts:
- POST /attempts/start: reuses existing incomplete attempt by default (fresh=false)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
In-progress quizzes section (Quizzes page):
- Shows all incomplete (not submitted) attempts in an amber ⏸ panel
- Each shows quiz title, start date, question count
- Resume button → navigates to quiz (which loads saved answers from Redis)
- Delete button (ConfirmButton) → deletes attempt + clears reminders
Quiz navigation warning:
- beforeunload handler warns when closing browser tab/window mid-quiz
- Leave confirmation modal when navigating away via React Router
(shows "Your progress is saved — resume later" + Stay/Leave buttons)
Quiz progress:
- Scroll on Next/Previous REMOVED per user request — page no longer scrolls
- Progress saved to Redis on every answer/navigation (1.5s debounce)
- Works across browsers, survives logout
- ModeSelectScreen loads saved progress from API and shows Resume button
Attempt management:
- POST /attempts/start now REUSES existing incomplete attempt (no more
creating duplicate incomplete attempts on every quiz start)
Pass fresh=true to force a new attempt
- GET /attempts/in-progress — list incomplete attempts for current user
- DELETE /attempts/{id} — delete attempt + reminders
Cleaned up 10 duplicate incomplete attempts from the database

Critical bug fix:
- DELETE /quizzes/{id} was returning 500 due to {\"quiz_id\": None} update using
the DB column name instead of Python attribute name (source_quiz_id).
Fixed with {QuestionModel.source_quiz_id: None, synchronize_session=False}
Extraction fix:
- Two-phase extraction was incorrectly triggering for PREP 2012/2014 format
documents that have 'Preferred Response:' in their explanation text.
Fix: check for inline 'Correct Answer:' first — if found, always use standard
extraction regardless of 'Preferred Response:' appearing elsewhere.
Quiz trash bin:
- DELETE /quizzes/{id} now soft-deletes (sets deleted_at)
- GET /quizzes/trash — list deleted quizzes (moderator)
- PATCH /quizzes/{id}/restore — restore from trash
- DELETE /quizzes/{id}/permanent — permanent delete (must be in trash first)
- TrashPage.jsx — accessible via Settings → Admin → Trash
Hide/publish quizzes:
- is_published column on quizzes (1=visible, 0=hidden)
- PATCH /quizzes/{id}/publish?published=false — hide from regular users
- Moderators see all quizzes; regular users only see published
- 👁/🙈 toggle button per quiz card (moderators only)
Quiz progress resume (cross-browser via Redis):
- POST /attempts/progress — save {answers, current_idx, mode} to Redis (7 days)
- GET /attempts/progress?quiz_id=N — retrieve saved progress
- DELETE /attempts/progress/{quiz_id} — clear on submit
- QuizPage auto-saves to Redis every 1.5s (debounced) while in progress
- ModeSelectScreen loads saved progress from server, shows Resume button
- Works across browsers, devices, and after logout
Delete attempt:
- DELETE /attempts/{id} — user can delete own attempt + clears reminders for that quiz
ConfirmButton component:
- Replaces all window.confirm() / window.prompt() across the app
- Double-click pattern: first click shows [Confirm] [Cancel] inline
- Applied to: QuizzesPage, DocumentDetailPage, QuizEditPage, QuestionBankPage
Category delete (QuestionBankPage):
- window.prompt() replaced with inline modal dialog with select dropdown
- User chooses where to move questions before deletion

Themes / CSS:
- Warm Brown theme: parchment cream background, dark brown navbar, Georgia serif font
beautiful and easy on eyes for reading medical content
- Default theme: slightly warmer bg, softer card shadows, 1200px container (less boxy)
- Navbar: sticky, height-fixed, overflow-x scroll on mobile (no wrapping), smaller text on mobile
- Mobile container: 14px padding for more space
Bug fixes:
- Login page: axios 401 interceptor no longer triggers window.location.href for auth endpoints
(was causing immediate page reload before error message was visible)
- Dashboard quizzes stat now shows distinct quizzes attempted (not created by user)
- PostgreSQL email collation: ALTER users.email to COLLATE "C" in migration
(prevents B-tree index corruption with en_US.utf8 locale causing user lookups to fail)
- get_current_user: verifies email on ALL protected endpoints, returns 403 with X-Unverified header
Frontend auto-logs out and redirects to /login where resend option is shown
DocumentDetailPage:
- Delete Section button with confirmation on each section row
- Create question category inline from dropdown (+ New button → prompt)
- Question Bank Category dropdown now shows question count
Dashboard:
- total_quizzes stat counts distinct attempted quizzes (not user-created quizzes)
Backend:
- DELETE /documents/{id}/sections/{section_id} endpoint added

Question sharing (edits now propagate):
- quiz_question_links junction table: quizzes reference questions, not own copies
- Existing questions migrated to junction (idempotent ON CONFLICT DO NOTHING)
- from-bank and from-category create quiz by adding junction links (no copying)
- Editing a question via QuizEditPage or bank Edit modal updates the ONE record
visible in all quizzes that reference it
- Delete from quiz: only deletes Question record if no other quiz references it
- quiz_service: fixed position counter (was using len() incorrectly, now enumerate)
- question.quiz_id renamed to source_quiz_id in Python (DB column still quiz_id)
- All attempts/quizzes/search code updated to use junction helper or source_quiz_id
Bug fixes:
- PostgreSQL en_US.utf8 collation B-tree index corruption on users.email
Fixed by ALTERing column to COLLATE "C" in migration + immediate repair
- get_current_user now blocks unverified users on ALL endpoints (403 + X-Unverified header)
api/client.js intercepts X-Unverified=true and auto-logs out to /login
- Search (quiz + bank): correct_answer and explanation now included in matching_questions
so study modals work correctly
- Keyword search: order_by updated to use source_quiz_id
- Bulk category: changed from PATCH with body array to POST with Pydantic body
(fixes null category_id removal)
- Question bank: edit button added, answer highlighting removed from list view
- QuestionBankPage: Keyword/Semantic/Hybrid search toggle
- Login: login error message stays visible (removed immediate reload)
Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
- attempts.py: dashboard quiz_stats now queries by attempted quizzes not
created quizzes — regular users now see per-quiz breakdown correctly
- documents.py: moderators/admins can fetch documents by ID (were getting
404 despite seeing them in the list); also restrict section creation and
delete to moderators via require_moderator
- nextcloud.py: sanitise filename in Content-Disposition header (strip
quotes, backslashes, newlines to prevent header injection)
- UploadPage.jsx: importing from Nextcloud no longer switches tab to local,
preserving the selected-file info display
- ResultsPage.jsx: fill-blank correct answers now show correct-bg (green)
instead of always showing wrong-bg (red)
