Replace rendered favicon and Apple touch icon links with the official PNG using a versioned URL, including layouts whose database template overrides have not taken effect. Create an icon link when absent without duplicates.
Validated injected script on live homepage and login HTML, PNG response, repeated execution, JavaScript syntax, and manifest completeness. Production still requires loading the updated assets.
Set page-specific titles for website, login, and member portal routes while retaining dynamic titles for other pages. Replace the default favicon with the official TNCSC logo. Add TNCSC to the backend title service without losing action names or notification counters.
Validated XML, title expressions, manifest entries, JavaScript syntax, and backend action/counter updates against the Odoo 19 title service. Live template rendering still requires deployment and module upgrade.
Add a shared login button to all 11 custom navigation templates, linking to /web/login with /my as the post-login destination. Style it in ivory and gold with visible keyboard focus and allow navigation to wrap.
Validated template insertion points, SCSS compilation, and desktop/mobile browser previews. Confirmed the button opens the login form with the member portal redirect.
Use an ivory canvas, white card and fields, readable dark text, and gold accents. Update autofill, passkey, focus, and alert colours, and improve small-screen spacing. Replace the lotus with the existing TNCSC brand logo.
Validation: SCSS compilation, XML parsing, and browser previews of the live login page with local changes at desktop and mobile widths. No credentials were submitted.
Replace the decorative lotus with the existing website brand logo and remove its gold glow. Preserve the logo proportions and sidebar spacing. Validated template XML and asset path.
Add a frontend style scoped to pages containing the custom TNCSC header. This complements template overrides and also covers website-editor copies while preserving standard navigation on other pages.
Validated by injecting the compiled CSS into the live homepage at desktop and mobile widths, checking custom mobile menu expansion, and confirming an ordinary page retains its default header. SCSS compilation and manifest checks passed.
Extend the ivory and gold palette to shared backend screens and remove conflicting toolbar layout overrides. Correct sidebar action selection and reserve compact sidebar spacing on smaller screens.
Hide the default website header on the 11 pages with custom TNCSC navigation using upgradeable template overrides that preserve edited page content.
Validation: SCSS compilation, JavaScript syntax, sidebar action selection, XML and manifest checks, brand-leak check, and static browser layout checks at four viewport widths passed. Live Odoo verification remains pending because the local Docker engine is unavailable.
Re-extracted the raw HTML of tncsc.com's homepage (the earlier pass used a
summarizing tool that dropped whole sections and paraphrased copy). The
home page was missing entire sections and had shortened text throughout:
- Hero was a single static banner; the real site is a 4-slide carousel
(Bootstrap carousel, real headline/subhead/CTA/image per slide).
- "Watch Our Story" section was missing entirely.
- "Why Join TNCSC?" FAQ section (Where is TNCSC based / How can I join)
was missing entirely.
- The 3 program cards, the "Speak the Language" section, and the final
CTA all had shortened/paraphrased copy - replaced with the real text.
- About section and Upcoming Events now use the real image grids instead
of a single photo each.
- Final CTA copy corrected to "Be a Part of the Legacy" (was invented
copy); kept the live membership-tier price strip merged into it rather
than dropped, since that's real dynamic data the static site can't show.
8 more real images downloaded from tncsc.com for the carousel and events
section. Verified against a live container: fresh install + module test
suite (9/9 passing) + HTTP 200 with correct content on every page.
Replaces the Phase 7 "content to be finalized" placeholder pages with
TNCSC's actual site content (captured 2026-08-20), verified against a
live Odoo container on a dedicated fresh database (tncsc_site):
- Home, About, About/Tamil Nadu, About/Board of Directors (12 real
members), Membership hub, Membership Benefits, Tamil Class, and
Contact pages, with nav restructured to match tncsc.com's real
structure (About and Membership as dropdowns).
- Real images downloaded from tncsc.com and self-hosted under
static/src/img/ instead of hotlinking the WordPress site.
- Home's "Upcoming Events" and the membership pricing tables are wired
to live event.event / community.membership.tier records instead of
being static copies; Tamil Class links to the real /school/register
flow. One real event seeded (Summer Picnic 2026).
- Deliberately not reproduced: tncsc.com's own Sponsors page and Contact
phone number are unmigrated WordPress theme demo placeholders on the
live site itself (generic client-01..09 logos, a non-Canadian demo
number) - confirmed by inspection, not assumed. Contact page uses the
real, verified email and social links instead.
- post_init_hook now also fixes two Odoo website Copy-On-Write gotchas
that silently prevented the new homepage and nav dropdowns from
rendering at all (auto-forked per-website duplicates winning over
this module's records) - see HANDOFF.md for the full explanation.
