Move theme toggle, notifications, app switcher, and user profile from
the top header bar into the sidebar. App switcher at the top (scope
switch), utilities at the bottom. Header now only shows on mobile for
the hamburger menu.
With ssr:false, the sidebar rendered nothing in server HTML, so the
content area took full width and page content (site name "Ciphera")
appeared in the sidebar zone. Now the dynamic import has a loading
placeholder — a 64px div with matching border/background that reserves
the sidebar space in the server HTML. Content area never occupies the
sidebar zone. Sidebar replaces the placeholder on client mount.
The sidebar now uses next/dynamic with ssr:false, meaning it renders
NOTHING in the server HTML. No DOM content = no possible flash of
"Ci" or any text during SSR-to-hydration gap. The sidebar only mounts
on the client where localStorage is immediately available, so
collapsed state is correct from the very first render.
Previous opacity-0 approach still rendered DOM content which could
flash during SSR hydration. Now render an empty div (just border +
background, no content) at collapsed width until useEffect fires.
Then swap in the real aside with content. Zero DOM content = zero
possible flash of text or icons.
The sidebar is now invisible (opacity-0) on the initial render.
In a single useEffect: read collapsed state from localStorage,
then requestAnimationFrame to reveal (opacity-1). React batches
the state update with the reveal, so the sidebar appears at its
correct width with correct label visibility in one frame. No
intermediate states, no hydration mismatch, no transitions on load.
Root cause 1: hydration mismatch — SSR rendered collapsed=true but
client useState initializer read localStorage synchronously, causing
an immediate state change and visual flash. Fix: always initialize
collapsed=true, read localStorage in useEffect so the transition
is smooth (collapsed→expanded animates cleanly).
Root cause 2: three-phase badge rendering (skeleton→letter→favicon)
caused visible state changes. Fix: just show the empty orange badge
until the favicon arrives. No skeleton, no letter fallback. One state
transition: empty→favicon.
When clicking the site picker in collapsed mode, the sidebar expands
and opens the dropdown. After selecting a site or clicking outside,
the sidebar re-collapses to its previous state.
Fix "Ci" flash on reload: default collapsed to true on SSR and when
no localStorage value exists, preventing hydration mismatch where
labels briefly render at full opacity in the narrow sidebar.
Use Google's favicon service to display the site's actual favicon
instead of the first-letter initial. Falls back to the letter if
the favicon fails to load. Matches the site list dashboard behavior.
Every interactive item (logo, site picker, nav links, settings,
collapse) now wraps its icon in a 28px flex container. Combined with
consistent px-2 outer + px-2.5 inner padding, all icon containers
start at exactly 18px from the sidebar edge and center at 32px — the
midpoint of the 64px collapsed sidebar.
Reduce all sidebar section outer padding from px-3 to px-2 so hover
backgrounds are wider and items center properly in the 64px collapsed
width. All sections now consistent: px-2 outer + px-2.5 inner.
Sidebar and content header were too transparent — content bled through.
Bump from bg-*/70 to bg-*/90 with backdrop-blur-xl for a subtle glass
effect that's still readable.
Apply the same backdrop-blur-2xl + semi-transparent bg treatment from
the AppLauncher dropdown to the sidebar and content header. Matches
the Ciphera design language: bg-white/70 dark:bg-neutral-900/70 with
supports-[backdrop-filter] progressive enhancement. Soften all borders
to /60 opacity.
Collapsed width 56px→64px to stop clipping site picker badge and icons.
Return null while auth is loading on site pages to prevent brief flash
of the public floating header before the sidebar layout renders.
Root cause: class switching (px-2↔px-3, justify-center↔gap-2.5,
conditional DOM rendering) caused instant layout jumps during the
200ms width transition.
Fix: internal layout is now 100% static — same padding, same gap,
same DOM structure in both states. Only opacity transitions on text
labels (via Label component). The sidebar overflow:hidden + width
transition handles the visual collapse. Collapse icon rotates 180deg
instead of swapping between two icons.
Icons now use justify-center + px-0 when collapsed so they sit
perfectly centered in the 56px rail. Track pending navigation href
optimistically — clicked item shows orange immediately instead of
flashing through the inactive hover state during route transition.
Use framer-motion animated sidebar from 21st.dev — collapses to icons,
expands on hover. Phosphor icons instead of lucide. Remove old manual
collapse/expand and sidebar-context. Top bar has Pulse logo + user
actions, sidebar below with site picker and nav groups.
Restructure layout: top bar spans full width (Pulse logo left, user
actions right) with continuous bottom border. Sidebar sits below with
no vertical border collision. Remove logo from sidebar. Remove all
transition-colors from nav items to prevent white flash on click.
- Fix stretched logo with object-contain
- Remove border below logo
- Add overflow-hidden to prevent scrollbar flash during transition
- Match utility bar height to old header (py-3.5)
- Remove transition-colors from active nav items to prevent white flash
Sidebar takes full viewport height with Pulse logo at top. No Header
on site pages — UtilityBar in content area provides theme toggle, app
launcher, notifications, and user menu. Non-site authenticated pages
keep static Header. No footer on dashboard pages.
Use h-screen overflow-hidden on the root container for authenticated
views. Sidebar and content fill the remaining height below the header.
Remove footer from dashboard pages. Content scrolls inside its own
container, sidebar stays fixed in place.
Replace floating pill header with static variant for authenticated
views. Add collapsible sidebar with site picker, grouped navigation
(Analytics/Infrastructure), and mobile overlay drawer. Remove
horizontal SiteNav tab bar.
Show step-by-step progress during PDF/XLSX exports with percentage,
stage label, and animated orange bar. Yields to UI thread between
stages so the browser can repaint.
Numbers smoothly count up/down when switching date ranges,
applying filters, or as real-time visitor count changes.
Uses framer-motion useSpring for natural spring physics.
Add proportional background bars (brand-orange) to Pages,
Referrers, Locations, Technology, and Campaigns tables.
Bars scale relative to the top item in each list.
- SiteNav: add horizontal scroll for 8 tabs on mobile
- NotificationCenter: full-width dropdown on mobile
- ContentStats/Locations/TechSpecs: scrollable tab bars
- FrustrationTable: fix selector text overflow
- FrustrationByPageTable: horizontal scroll on mobile
- CDN: better stat card grid breakpoints
- Home: reduce stat card height, prevent button wrap
- Billing: shorter invoice labels on mobile
- Bump @ciphera-net/ui to 0.2.6 (AppLauncher mobile fix)
Remove Performance tab, PerformanceStats component, settings toggle,
Web Vitals observers from tracking script, and all related API types
and SWR hooks. Duration tracking is preserved.
Performance metrics moved from dashboard into a new Performance tab.
Fixed null handling so "No data" shows instead of misleading zeros.
Script no longer sends INP=0 when no interaction occurred.
Peak Hours back in its original grid position next to Campaigns.
Search panel now placed below as a standalone row, and hides
entirely when there's no GSC data instead of showing zeros.
