Add UX-focused validation to prevent user accidents and provide immediate feedback. Includes DOMPurify integration for basic content sanitization and real-time form validation.
Features:
- Real-time input validation with visual feedback
- Field-type specific validation (text, URL, markdown)
- DOMPurify integration for display sanitization
- Validation messages with auto-dismiss
- Prevents common user mistakes (HTML in text fields, invalid URLs)
- Client-side sanitization for markdown rendering
- Maintains security awareness while focusing on user experience
Note: This is UX-focused validation - server-side validation remains the primary security boundary.
Implement markdown collection support alongside existing element-level editing. Users can now choose between individual element editing (headlines, buttons) and rich markdown editing (stories, bios). Includes responsive overlay forms, smart field detection, and comprehensive documentation updates.
Features:
- Markdown collections with data-field-type="markdown"
- Responsive overlay forms that adapt to element width
- Element-level editing for granular control
- Updated documentation and integration guide
- Fixed marked.js renderer configuration issues
- Enhanced about.html to demonstrate both approaches
Replace container-based blob editing approach with individual element editing. Each .insertr element now gets appropriate field type (text, textarea, link) based on HTML tag and classes. Provides much better UX with separate inputs for headlines, paragraphs, and buttons while preserving HTML structure and styling.
🐛 Issue: marked is not a function error
✅ Fix: Properly access marked.js v16.x UMD API
🔧 Changes:
- Correctly access window.marked object from UMD build
- Find the parse function within the marked object
- Properly configure custom renderer with .use() method
- Add comprehensive error checking and logging
💡 UMD API Structure:
- UMD exposes: window.marked (object)
- Parse function: window.marked.marked or window.marked.parse
- Configuration: window.marked.use() method
Now ready to test the two-button scenario! 🎯

Ready to test the two-button hero scenario! 🚀
🐛 Critical Fix: Maximum call stack exceeded error
✅ Solution: Properly handle regex match result in parseMarkdownToBlocks()
🔧 Issue:
- line.match(/^#+/)[0].length caused infinite recursion
- Browser crashed when editing rich content with headings
🔧 Fix:
- Store regex match result in variable first
- Add null check before accessing match result
- Prevents stack overflow when parsing markdown headings
⚡ Now safe to edit content with # headings without crashes
🎯 Problem: Buttons and styling lost when saving rich content
✅ Solution: Smart content application that preserves HTML structure
🔧 New Features:
- parseMarkdownToBlocks() - Intelligently parses markdown
- updateRichContent() - Updates elements in place vs wholesale replacement
- canUpdateElement() - Checks element/content compatibility
- updateElementContent() - Preserves classes while updating content
- looksLikeButton() - Heuristics to detect and preserve button styling
🎨 Layout Preservation:
- Buttons keep their 'btn-primary' classes and styling
- Headings maintain existing CSS classes and hierarchy
- Paragraphs preserve lead/subtitle classes
- Links maintain href and visual styling
✨ User Experience:
- Edit 'Get Started Today' button → still looks like a button after save
- Rich content maintains professional appearance
- No more plain text where buttons should be
