 All notable changes to this project will be documented in this file.
 
+## 2.10.1 - 2026-08-28
+
+### Added
+
+- Added linear gradient backgrounds to templates, including multiple colours and angle control.
+- Added a visual gradient stop editor with draggable stops, click-to-add support, and stop reordering.
+
+## 2.10.0 - 2026-08-28
+
+### Added
+
+- Added secure kiosk onboarding with QR-first and manual pairing flows.
+- Added browser-specific pairing sessions with expiring pairing codes.
+- Added circular QR presentation and a compatible QR scanner with decoder fallbacks.
+- Added responsive player onboarding and a post-pair option to connect another player.
+- Added stable player identity bindings for paired players and moved-client aliases.
+- Added per-tab client identities backed by browser session storage for commands, pairing, and screen moves.
+- Added RBAC protection for player pairing through the `pairing.allow` permission.
+- Added a dedicated web onboarding workflow for pairing and managing player setup.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Restricted direct screen URLs to the player configured for the requested screen.
+- Added pairing entry points to the dashboard and connected clients workflows.
+- Made pairing QR codes easier to scan by encoding only the short pairing code.
+- Added a mobile-friendly connected clients link after successful pairing.
+- Made connected-client controls and player pairing UI render independently according to their permissions.
+- Added player keyboard feedback for slide navigation, plus `P` pause/unpause and `B` blackout toggles.
+- Removed client identities from onboarding and screen-move URLs; authorized player data now loads after the tab identity handshake.
+- Updated connected-client commands and screen moves to resolve tab and registered-player identities reliably.
+
+## 2.9.0 - 2026-08-28
+
+### Added
+
+- API sources, RSS feeds, and weather locations can be enabled or disabled without deleting their cached data.
+- Added Weather slide regions with current, daily, and hourly placeholders, date/time transforms, and Bootstrap weather icon transforms.
+- Added multiple saved weather locations with provider, coordinate, unit, and refresh settings.
+- Added separate Allow permissions for manually refreshing API sources, RSS feeds, and weather locations.
+
+### Changed
+
+- API, RSS, and Weather refresh jobs now skip disabled sources across scheduled, startup, queued, and manual refresh paths, while re-enabling a source resumes refresh scheduling.
+- Weather placeholders now show all current fields, or all fields for the first daily/hourly entry before the remaining entries in a Show more section.
+- Weather previews, player playback, and slide thumbnails now use cached Weather data and consistent text/icon sizing.
+- API, RSS, and Weather lists now show enabled status and their forms provide action-oriented Enable/Disable controls.
+- Enable/Disable actions on API, RSS, and Weather forms now run asynchronously without reloading unsaved form changes.
+- Weather locations can now be duplicated from the weather list.
+- Startup data-source refreshes now respect each API, RSS, and weather source's configured repull interval.
+- RSS feeds now persist their last collection timestamp.
+- Refreshed the vendored AdminLTE assets to 4.8.5.
+- Added AdminLTE extended palette colours to announcement colour choices and player rendering.
+- Removed Digital Signage Subheading and top padding.
+- API and RSS source saves now preserve cached data without pulling; added explicit manual refresh actions.
+
+## 2.8.7 - 2026-08-22
+
+### Added
+
+- Added configurable JSON POST requests and two-step login-then-token authentication for API sources.
+
+## 2.8.6 - 2026-08-18
+
+### Fixed
+
+- Added live URL validation with inline feedback and explicit HTTP or HTTPS scheme enforcement for URL fields.
+- Prevented Enter in slide editor inputs from implicitly saving the slide.
+- Collapsed nested API response JSON sections by default while keeping the root response visible.
+
 ## 2.8.5 - 2026-08-17
 
 ### Fixed
