The bar now holds only Lists, Settings and Sign out, right-aligned, and
is shown only when signed in, so visitors never see it on any page.

Visitors see the home page with no top bar at all. Signed in, the bar
sits behind a small tab at the top center that drops it down; Escape or
a click outside closes it. Every other page keeps the regular bar.

Backups are .tar.gz archives of a consistent database snapshot (VACUUM
INTO) plus the images folder. They run on a cron schedule, daily at 3:00
by default, and the newest N scheduled ones are kept (7 by default).
Manual backups are never pruned.
Settings → Backups offers schedule presets or a custom cron expression,
retention, "Back up now", and download/delete for each backup. A small
built-in parser handles standard 5-field cron syntax with names, ranges,
steps and @daily-style shorthands.
Backups go to CANON_BACKUP_DIR (default data/backups). Compose mounts a
separate canon-backups volume at /backups, overridable with
CANON_BACKUP_PATH.

Podium, Spotlight and Grid render smaller on the home page on desktop so
one entry no longer fills the screen; list pages keep full size.
Compose now builds on every deploy (pull_policy: build), stores data in
the canon-data named volume outside the synced folder (CANON_DATA_PATH
overrides), and takes optional bind/port/version settings.

- Every provider can look an entry up again by its ID (TMDB, TheTVDB,
IGDB, Deezer, MusicBrainz, Wikipedia); search and lookup share parsing
- POST /api/items/{id}/refresh re-applies title, subtitle, year,
description, link, details and artwork. Kept: the "why" note, rank,
theater production/venue/cast and a theater entry's year, the Deezer
preview match. Empty source fields don't erase existing values
- New items.image_custom column (migration 4; existing uploads marked)
records artwork the owner chose; refresh keeps it unless asked
- Refused for custom lists and hand-added entries; entries the source
dropped are reported, and a refresh whose title shares no words with
the current one is rejected as a likely bad ID
- Editor: refresh button per row (asks about the owner's own artwork),
and "Refresh all" with a confirm step, replace-my-art checkbox,
progress with Stop, and a summary of problems

The Podium and Spotlight ring was a box-shadow, which the card hover
shadow replaced. Draw it as an outline instead.

- Each list picks a style in List settings (new lists default to Podium);
existing lists keep Grid or List
- Podium: top 3 on medal-colored steps (#1 center and raised), the rest
behind a native <details> "Show N more"; stacks #1 over #2/#3 on phones
- Spotlight: #1 as a feature card (art, why-note or description, play
button), the rest as a numbered list
- Visitors can switch styles on a list page (?style=), preserved across
pages; later pages fall back to a plain list since they don't start at #1
- Entries' detail data now lives on a wrapper per list, so featured and
collapsed entries all open the detail view

Search
- Albums and songs search Deezer and MusicBrainz at once and merge the
results: duplicates keep the Deezer copy, best word matches first.
Deezer's search misses albums it carries (Death Magnetic) and most game
soundtracks; MusicBrainz finds them
- MusicBrainz secondary types are shown ("Soundtrack", "Live")
- Settings: Deezer + MusicBrainz (default), Deezer only, MusicBrainz only
- Search results show which service they came from
Previews
- Songs and albums get a play button (cards, rows, detail view, editor,
and Deezer search results) for a 30-second Deezer clip; albums play
their most popular track
- Clips are looked up fresh (Deezer URLs expire), cached 10 minutes, and
streamed through Canon with Range support; hidden lists stay private
- Entries from MusicBrainz or added by hand are matched to Deezer on save
so they can preview too
- "Play previews" toggle in Settings → Profile
Tests cover merging and title/artist matching; `-tags live` runs checks
against the real services.

Pure #000 background (OLED pixels off), near-black panels with dark red
borders, and a red accent (#e0263a) that passes 4.5:1 as text on black and
behind white button labels. Badges use a brighter red to stay legible on
their tinted background.

Descriptions
- Items keep the source's description (TMDB/TheTVDB overview, IGDB
summary, Wikipedia intro) in a new items.description column
(migration 3); editable in the item form
- Deezer/MusicBrainz track counts and album names are now display-only
hints, not saved as descriptions
Why it's #N
- The owner's note is presented as "Why it's #N" in the editor and the
public detail view, above an "About" section with the description
IGDB developers
- IGDB credits internal divisions ("Nintendo EAD", "Nintendo EPD
Production Group No. 8"). A developer whose name shares its first word
with its parent company is credited to the parent ("Nintendo");
independently named studios keep their name (Retro Studios, Naughty
Dog, Landfall Games)
- Fall back to the publisher when IGDB lists no developer

- Module github.com/cdnutter/canon, binary/command cmd/canon, Docker
image and compose project "canon"
- Environment variables now use the CANON_ prefix
- Default site title is "<Your name>'s Canon" (or "Canon" with no name);
a Site title set in Settings still overrides it
- Existing topdeck.db (and WAL files) is renamed to canon.db on start
- README: upgrade notes, including moving the old compose volume

Export
- GET /l/<list>/export?format=csv|txt downloads a list's titles in rank
order, one per line, with no header or other fields (CSV gets a UTF-8
BOM for Excel)
- Export menu in the list editor and, for the owner, on the public list
page; hidden lists stay owner-only
Custom lists
- New "Custom" category for anything not built in (sports teams,
drinks…): owner-named, slug from the title, entries added by hand or
from an unfiltered Wikipedia search
- Per-list artwork shape (square or tall), stored in a new lists.art
column (migration 2)
- Art can be uploaded while adding an entry, not only after

- Artwork cached locally; URL override and uploads
- Drag, arrow and type-a-rank reordering; paginated for long lists
- 12 theme presets plus custom CSS
- First-run setup code or env-provided admin; bcrypt, rate-limited login,
CSRF-guarded JSON API
- Dockerfile and docker-compose.yml
