v1.8.3 - January 20, 2026

Billing System Standardization & Two-Pool Credit System

This release implements industry-standard billing practices and introduces the two-pool credit system for clearer credit management.

💳 Two-Pool Credit System

Architecture:

account.credits = Plan credits (from subscription, resets on renewal)
account.bonus_credits = Purchased credits (NEVER expire, NEVER reset)

Deduction Priority:

Plan credits consumed FIRST
Bonus credits consumed only when plan credits = 0

Key Behaviors:

Event	Plan Credits	Bonus Credits
Payment success	Reset to plan amount	No change
No payment (24h)	Reset to 0	No change
Late payment	Reset to plan amount	No change

Implementation:

All deduction logic centralized in CreditService.deduct_credits()
AI functions unchanged - they call the same credit check/deduct methods
Transparent to all consumers - two-pool logic is internal only

🔄 Renewal Workflow Standardization

Stripe/PayPal (Auto-Pay) - Industry Standard:

No advance notice (like Netflix, Spotify, Adobe)
Day 0: Auto-charge attempt
Success: Receipt email + credits reset to plan amount
Failure: Retry notification, Stripe retries 4x over 7 days
Day +7: Expired if all retries fail

Bank Transfer (Manual Pay) - Simplified 3-Email Flow:

Day -3: Invoice created + Email sent
Day 0: Renewal day reminder (if unpaid)
Day +1: Urgent reminder + credits reset to 0
Day +7: Subscription expired

📋 Admin Improvements

Payment Logs in Admin Sidebar:

Added "Payment Logs" link under Plans & Billing menu
Quick access to WebhookEvent records

WebhookEvent Logging:

All payment types now logged to WebhookEvent model:
- Stripe webhooks (existing)
- PayPal webhooks (existing)
- Bank transfer approvals (NEW)
- Manual payment events (NEW)

🔧 Celery Task Updates

Renamed Tasks:

Old Name	New Name	Purpose
`send_renewal_notices`	`create_bank_transfer_invoices`	Invoice 3 days before (bank transfer only)
`send_invoice_reminders`	`send_renewal_day_reminders`	Day 0 reminder (bank transfer)

Combined Tasks:

send_day_after_reminders now handles both Day +1 reminder AND credit reset
Removed separate reset_unpaid_renewal_credits task

Updated Schedule:

Task	Schedule	Purpose
`create_bank_transfer_invoices`	Daily 09:00	Invoice 3 days before
`process_subscription_renewals`	Daily 00:05	Auto-pay renewals
`send_renewal_day_reminders`	Daily 10:00	Day 0 reminder
`send_day_after_reminders`	Daily 09:15	Day +1 urgent + credit reset
`check_expired_renewals`	Daily 00:15	Expire after 7-day grace

v1.8.2 - January 19, 2026

Keywords Library Complete Redesign & Sector-Specific Filtering

This release delivers a comprehensive redesign of the Keywords Library page with major architectural improvements to ensure sites only see keywords from their configured sectors, new UI components for better keyword discovery, and cascading filters matching the Planner pages pattern.

🎯 Critical Fix: Sector-Specific Filtering

Problem: Sites were seeing keywords from ALL sectors in their industry, not just their configured sectors. For example, a "Technology Consulting" site was seeing AI & Machine Learning keywords even though it wasn't configured for that sector.

Root Cause: Backend get_queryset() was filtering by industry_id, which returned ALL IndustrySector records for that industry, regardless of which sectors the site actually has.

Solution:

Added sector_ids parameter support to backend API endpoints
Frontend now passes site's specific industry_sector IDs
Keywords filtered to only those matching site's configured sectors
Both sector_stats and list endpoints respect sector filtering

API Changes:

# New parameter support
GET /api/v1/keywords-library/?sector_ids=1,2,3
GET /api/v1/keywords-library/sector_stats/?sector_ids=1,2,3

Impact:

Sites now see ONLY keywords relevant to their configured sectors
Stat counts accurate (available, added, high-opportunity, etc.)
Sector metric cards show correct totals
Smart Suggestions reflect only relevant keywords

📊 Sector Metric Cards (New Component)

New Feature: Sector overview cards at top of page showing key stats per sector.

Features:

6 Stat Types:
- 📦 Total Keywords - All keywords in sector
- ✅ Added - Keywords site has added
- ⭐ High-Opportunity - Premium keywords with high volume
- 🎯 Available - Keywords not yet added
- 💰 Paid - Premium keywords requiring credits
- 🆓 Free - No-cost keywords
Interactive Filtering:
- Click any stat type to filter table
- Active stat highlighted with success color badge (top-right)
- Aggregates counts across all site sectors
- Respects search and other filters
Visual Design:
- Card layout with sector name and description
- Metric grid showing all 6 stats
- Hover effects and smooth transitions
- Active badge in top-right corner when filtering by that sector

Location: Appears at top of page, before filters and table

✨ Smart Suggestions Redesign

New Behavior: Smart Suggestions now appear dynamically after user interaction (search or filter) instead of always visible.

Features:

6 Bulk-Add Options:
- All Available - Add all unfettered keywords
- High-Opportunity Available - Add premium keywords not yet added
- High-Opportunity Missing - Suggest premium keywords to add
- Top 50 by Volume - Add highest traffic keywords
- Low Difficulty - Add easiest-to-rank keywords
- Paid Available - Add premium keywords
Dynamic Display:
- Hidden by default on page load
- Appears after search or filter interaction
- Breathing animation indicator when active
- Metric cards show available counts for each option
Bulk Add Confirmation:
- Modal confirmation before bulk operations
- Shows count of keywords to be added
- Prevents accidental mass additions

Note: Smart Suggestions metric cards do NOT show active badges (only Sector Cards do)

🔍 Cascading Filters Implementation

Pattern Match: Keywords Library now uses same filter UX as Planner pages (Keywords, Clusters, Ideas).

Filter Options:

🔍 Search - Keyword name search
🌍 Country - Filter by target country
📈 Volume - Traffic volume ranges
💪 Difficulty - SEO difficulty levels (Easy, Medium, Hard, Very Hard)
📊 Status - Added vs Available
🎯 Sector - Filter by specific sector (NEW)

Cascading Behavior:

Each filter shows only values present in current data
Filters update based on other active filters
"Clear Filters" button appears when filters active
Active filter indicator shows count

UI Improvements:

Centered filter bar matching Planner pages
Consistent spacing and styling
Responsive layout
Clear visual hierarchy

🎨 UI/UX Improvements

Typography:

Reduced font sizes across page for better density
Keyword names: text-base (was text-lg)
Descriptions: text-sm (was text-base)
Stat labels: text-xs (consistent with design system)

Layout:

Sector cards at top with proper spacing
Smart Suggestions below sector cards (when visible)
Filter bar centered and properly aligned
Table with improved readability

Interactions:

Smooth transitions and hover states
Active filter highlighting with success color
Breathing indicator for Smart Suggestions
Clear add/added button states

State Management:

"Added" button state persists correctly after page reload
Aggregated available counts accurate across all stats
localStorage tracks added keywords
Real-time stat updates when keywords added/removed

🔧 Backend Changes

Files Modified:

backend/igny8_core/auth/views.py - SeedKeywordViewSet

Changes:

sector_ids Parameter Support:

def get_queryset(self):
    sector_ids_param = self.request.query_params.get('sector_ids', None)
    if sector_ids_param:
        sector_ids = [int(id.strip()) for id in sector_ids_param.split(',')]
        queryset = queryset.filter(industry_sector_id__in=sector_ids)

sector_stats Endpoint Updated:
- Accepts sector_ids parameter
- Filters stats by specified sectors
- Returns accurate counts per sector
Improved Query Performance:
- Optimized sector filtering
- Reduced database queries
- Better indexing for sector lookups

🎯 Frontend Changes

Files Modified:

frontend/src/pages/Setup/IndustriesSectorsKeywords.tsx - Main page component
frontend/src/components/keywords-library/SectorCardsGrid.tsx - Sector metric cards
frontend/src/components/keywords-library/SectorMetricCard.tsx - Individual sector card
frontend/src/components/keywords-library/SmartSuggestions.tsx - Smart Suggestions component
frontend/src/services/api.ts - API integration

Major Changes:

Sector Filtering Integration:

const loadSectorStats = async () => {
  const sectorIds = sectors.map(s => s.industry_sector).filter(Boolean);
  const stats = await fetchSectorStats({ sector_ids: sectorIds });
};

Available Counts Aggregation:
- Fixed aggregation for all 6 stat types
- Correct counts for Total, Added, Available, High-Opportunity, Paid, Free
- Respects both sector filtering and search/filters
State Management:
- localStorage for added keywords tracking
- React state for sector stats and filters
- Proper dependency arrays for useEffect hooks
- Real-time updates on keyword add/remove

UI Component Structure:

KeywordsLibrary
├── SectorCardsGrid (if sectors)
│   └── SectorMetricCard[] (per sector)
├── SmartSuggestions (if search/filter active)
│   └── SectorMetricCard[] (for bulk actions)
├── FilterBar (centered, cascading)
└── KeywordsTable (filtered results)

📝 Terminology Standardization

Unified Naming: "Keywords Library" everywhere (was inconsistent: "Keyword Library", "Add Keywords", "Seed Keywords")

Changes:

Sidebar: "Keywords Library"
Page Title: "Keywords Library"
URL: /keywords-library (was /setup/add-keywords)
API Endpoint: /api/v1/keywords-library/ (was /api/v1/auth/seed-keywords/)
Code: Internal SeedKeyword model name kept, but all user-facing text updated

Note: No backward compatibility redirects - direct change to new naming.

🐛 Bug Fixes

"Added" Button State:
- Fixed state not reflecting correctly after page reload
- Now properly checks localStorage and aggregates counts
- Real-time updates when keywords added/removed
Sector Card Active Badge:
- Moved to top-right corner (was bleeding into card content)
- Uses success color variant
- Only shows on Sector Cards, not Smart Suggestions
Wrong Sector Keywords:
- Sites no longer see keywords from unconfigured sectors
- Sector filtering now works at backend level
- Accurate filtering prevents data pollution
Available Count Accuracy:
- Fixed aggregation logic for all stat types
- Correct counts regardless of active filters
- Proper handling of edge cases (0 available, all added, etc.)

v1.8.1 - January 18, 2026

Automation Scheduling Overhaul & Centralized Default Settings

This release introduces a complete overhaul of the automation scheduling system, moving from 15-minute window checking to hourly scheduling. It also introduces the DefaultAutomationConfig singleton model for centralized default settings management, test mode functionality for admins, and backend-driven reset functionality for the frontend.

⏰ Hourly Scheduling System

Previous Behavior (v1.8.0):

Celery checked every 15 minutes for automations within a 15-minute window
Complex time window calculations prone to edge cases

New Behavior (v1.8.1):

Celery checks every hour at :05 (crontab(minute=5))
Simple hour matching: scheduled_hour == current_hour
Users select hour only (12-hour AM/PM format in UI, stored as 24-hour HH:00)

Celery Beat Schedule:

Task	Schedule	Purpose
`check_scheduled_automations`	Every hour at `:05`	Check if automations should run
`check_test_triggers`	Every minute	Check for admin test triggers
`schedule_approved_content`	Every hour at `:00`	Schedule approved content
`process_scheduled_publications`	Every 5 minutes	Publish scheduled content

🔧 DefaultAutomationConfig Model

New Singleton Model (backend/igny8_core/business/automation/models.py):

A centralized configuration model for all default automation settings:

Scheduling Defaults:

is_enabled, frequency (daily/weekly/monthly)
base_scheduled_hour, next_scheduled_hour (auto-increment for new sites)

Stage Defaults (per stage 1-7):

stage_X_enabled - Enable/disable individual stages
stage_X_batch_size - Items per batch
stage_X_use_testing - Use test AI model (AI stages only)
stage_X_budget_pct - Credit budget percentage (AI stages only)

Per-Run Limits:

max_keywords_per_run, max_clusters_per_run, etc.
max_credits_per_run

Publishing Defaults:

auto_approval_enabled, auto_publish_enabled
daily_publish_limit, weekly_publish_limit, monthly_publish_limit
publish_days (JSONField - e.g., ['mon', 'tue', 'wed', 'thu', 'fri'])
publish_time_slots (JSONField - e.g., ['09:00', '14:00', '18:00'])

Image Defaults:

image_style (default: 'photorealistic')
max_images_per_article (default: 4)

🧪 Test Mode (Admin Feature)

New fields on AutomationConfig for admin testing:

test_mode_enabled - Enable test functionality for a config
test_trigger_at - When to trigger (set to now for immediate)

How It Works:

Admin enables test mode and sets trigger time
check_test_triggers task runs every minute
When test_trigger_at <= now, automation starts with trigger_type='test'
Bypasses 23-hour blocking and schedule requirements

Admin Actions:

🧪 Trigger test run - Sets test mode and immediate trigger
🧹 Clear test mode - Disables and clears trigger

🔄 Reset Button Backend Integration

New API Endpoint: GET /api/v1/integration/settings/defaults/

Frontend reset button now fetches defaults from backend instead of using hardcoded values:

Response Format:

{
  "automation": {
    "enabled": false,
    "frequency": "daily",
    "time": "02:00"
  },
  "stages": [
    {"number": 1, "enabled": true, "batch_size": 50, "per_run_limit": 0, "use_testing": false, "budget_pct": 15},
    ...
  ],
  "delays": {
    "within_stage": 3,
    "between_stage": 5
  },
  "publishing": {
    "auto_approval_enabled": false,
    "auto_publish_enabled": false,
    "daily_publish_limit": 3,
    "weekly_publish_limit": 15,
    "monthly_publish_limit": 50,
    "publish_days": ["mon", "tue", "wed", "thu", "fri"],
    "time_slots": ["09:00", "14:00", "18:00"]
  },
  "images": {
    "style": "photorealistic",
    "max_images": 4
  }
}

Note: Image settings are NOT reset by the reset button - they come from a separate global system (/api/v1/account/settings/ai/).

Major Release: Automation Overhaul & AI Provider Integrations

This release introduces significant improvements to the automation pipeline, adds support for multiple AI providers (Anthropic Claude, Bria AI), implements a centralized Model Registry for cost calculation, and includes comprehensive UI/UX improvements with CSS globalization.

🚀 Automation Pipeline Overhaul

Complete Rewrite of Automation System:

Redesigned 7-stage automation pipeline with accurate progress tracking
Added initial snapshot capture for proper progress percentage calculation
Implemented incremental saves after each item for real-time UI updates
Fixed progress calculation using stage-specific keys instead of summing all numeric values
Stage 7 converted from "Manual Review Gate" to "Auto-Approve and Publish"

New Components:

GlobalProgressBar.tsx - Full pipeline progress across all 7 stages with segmented visualization
CurrentProcessingCardV2.tsx - Simplified real-time progress card

Backend Improvements:

automation_service.py - Complete rewrite with proper item counting
_capture_initial_snapshot() - Captures queue sizes at run start
_update_snapshot_after_stage() - Updates counts for cascading stages
Fixed _get_processed_count() to use stage-specific keys
Credits now tracked via CreditUsageLog (matches billing source of truth)
New run_progress API endpoint for unified progress data

Stage Card UI Improvements:

New layout with icon, stage number, and function name in header
Larger Pending/Processed counts with semantic colors
Breathing circle indicator for active stages
Progress bar with stage-specific gradient colors
Credits and duration displayed inline

Pipeline Overview Fixes:

Stage 1 pending now matches Keywords "New" count (removed cluster__isnull filter)
Stage 3 uses status='new' instead of status='approved'
Stage 4 uses status='queued' matching pipeline_overview

🤖 AI Provider Integrations

v1.2.1 - December 28, 2025

Critical Bug Fix - AI Task Notifications

Problem:

Notifications system was implemented in v1.2.0 but notifications were never being created
AI functions (clustering, idea generation, content generation, etc.) completed successfully but no notifications appeared in the dropdown
NotificationService existed but was never called from AIEngine

Root Cause:

AIEngine.execute() method completed successfully but never called NotificationService
No notification creation in either success or failure paths
Celery logs showed tasks completing but no notification records in database

Solution:

Added _create_success_notification() method to AIEngine class
Added _create_failure_notification() method to AIEngine class
Integrated notification creation in execute() success path (after DONE phase)
Integrated notification creation in _handle_error() failure path
Used lazy imports to avoid Django app loading issues at module level
Maps each AI function to appropriate NotificationService method:
- auto_cluster → notify_clustering_complete/failed
- generate_ideas → notify_ideas_complete/failed
- generate_content → notify_content_complete/failed
- generate_image_prompts → notify_prompts_complete/failed
- generate_images → notify_images_complete/failed

Testing:

Celery worker restarted successfully with new code
Notifications now created for both successful and failed AI operations
Frontend notification dropdown will display notifications via existing API integration

Documentation Added:

Created comprehensive docs/10-MODULES/NOTIFICATIONS.md
Documents all notification types and triggers
Includes frontend implementation details
Lists all 15 notification types with message formats
Debug commands and testing procedures
Added to docs/INDEX.md module listing
Clarified: No dedicated notifications page exists (only dropdown)

Additional Fix - Keyword Import Notifications:

Added notification creation to add_to_workflow endpoint in KeywordViewSet
When users add keywords to workflow, notification now appears
Notification format: "Added X keywords to [site]"
Lazy import pattern to avoid circular dependencies

Files Changed

backend/igny8_core/ai/engine.py - Added notification creation methods and integration points
backend/igny8_core/modules/planner/views.py - Added notification for keyword import
docs/10-MODULES/NOTIFICATIONS.md - NEW: Complete notifications module documentation
docs/INDEX.md - Added Notifications module to index

Files Added

docs/10-MODULES/NOTIFICATIONS.md
