 ## [Unreleased]
 
+## [1.31.0] - 2026-10-22
+
+### Added
+
+- The registration funnel's traffic source works without tagged links: visits from Facebook, Instagram, Google, X, LinkedIn and other sites are recognised from where the visitor came from (and Facebook's/Google's click ids). Links without a tag used to count as "direct". WhatsApp still only shows from tagged links (`?utm_source=whatsapp`), since it doesn't pass that on.
+- The event page's Share button shares the link tagged `?utm_source=share`, and Save QR encodes it tagged `?utm_source=qr`, so those visits show separately.
+- Event pages tell search engines about the event in Google's event format (schema.org `Event`): name, dates, venue, picture, organiser, ticket prices in Rand and whether it's sold out. Google can then show events with their date, venue and ticket link in search results and in its event listings. Contact-only events are listed without tickets.
+
+### Changed
+
+- Event pages, the events list and the home page tell search engines their one official address, so `?utm_source=…`, `?src=…` and alias links all count towards the same page in search rankings. Shared event links also carry the event's address.
+
+## [1.30.1] - 2026-10-22
+
+### Changed
+
+- All tickets now share the design of the tickets printed from the user dashboard: rounded white cards with a light border and soft shadow, the date beside the event name, and the QR code in the middle. This covers the PDF sent by email and WhatsApp (now 6 per page, so the QR codes are bigger) and printing from Event Tickets (staff) and At the door (supervisor). Printed names are now escaped, so a name with `<` or `&` prints correctly.
