Merge branch 'feat/event-series'

Event series (1.47.1)
Group separate events (Camp 2025, Camp 2026) on a series page at /series/<slug> with upcoming and past events. Events join a series from the event editor (copies keep it); a series can span campuses. Event pages show "Part of ..." and "Next in this series". Signed-in people can follow a series; the new `series` job emails followers once when a new event in it goes live, as News & announcements (opted-in only, with unsubscribe). Follows are in the data export and removed on anonymising. Migration 20261028140000_event_series. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>

+
+### Added
+
+- **Event series** — group separate events (Camp 2025, Camp 2026; the monthly men's breakfast) on
+  one page. Supervisors make series on the new **Event series** page (name, web address,
+  description, picture) and put an event in one with the **Series** box in the event editor; a
+  copied event keeps its series. A series can have events at several campuses.
+- **Series page** `/series/<slug>`: what's coming up (event cards) and past events. Each event in a
+  series shows "Part of …" and **Next in this series** on its page.
+- **Follow a series** — signed-in people follow on the series page. When a new event in the series
+  goes live (and hasn't started) followers get one email, sent as News & announcements: only to
+  people opted in to news, with the unsubscribe link and one-click headers. New `series` job every
+  15 minutes (`SERIES_JOBS_ENABLED`); an event moved into another series is announced to that
+  series' followers.
+- Followed series are in "Download my data" and removed when an account is anonymised.
+- API: `/api/series` (list, create, change; delete for admins; `by-slug`; follow/unfollow),
+  `seriesId` on event create/update, `?series=<slug>` on `GET /api/events`, `series` and
+  `nextInSeries` on `GET /api/events/:id`. Creating and changing series is blocked in licence
+  read-only mode. Audit actions `series_created`, `series_updated`, `series_deleted` (migration
+  `20261028140000_event_series`).
+
+## [1.47.0] - 2026-10-28
+
+### Added
+
+- **Copy an event** — "Copy" on each card on the Events page opens the event editor filled in from
+  that event: details, campus, sessions, ticket options, variants and early-bird tiers, sections,
+  the registration form, notification recipients, the feedback questions, certificates and session
+  reminders. Everything can be changed before saving. A **New start** box at the top moves every
+  date by the same amount — the end, the sessions, the registration deadline, early-bird deadlines
+  and the feedback date. On save the event's allocation groups (rooms, buses, teams) are copied
+  too, and for admins its planned costs (a cost on a ticket option goes to the option with the
+  same name). Not copied: registrations, coupons, attachments, bundles, the short link, the go-live
+  time, cancelled sessions, kids check-in (kids ticket and rooms) and volunteer roles.
+- `POST /api/events/:id/copy-from` (blocked in licence read-only mode, campus-checked for both
+  events); `POST /api/events` takes `clonedFromId`, recorded in the `event_created` audit entry.

+## Where copying an event lives (1.47.0)
+
+- The copy is made in the browser: `EventModal` in `app/dashboard/supervisor/events/page.tsx` takes
+  `source` (create mode, `cloning`), fills its state from it (`cloneOptions` leaves out the kids and
+  volunteer tickets and all ids; cancelled sessions dropped; sessions keyed by the source's ids so
+  late joining still points right; sections loaded and mapped onto the copied options; feedback
+  questions without the sent/answered state), and `moveAllDates` shifts every date for "New start".
+  It saves through the normal create path, so **a new field on the event form is copied
+  automatically** if it's initialised from `base`.
+- What the form doesn't hold is copied by the server afterwards: `utils/eventClone.js`
+  (`copyEventSetup`: allocation sets/groups except `kidsRoomSetId`, costs for admins only since
+  costs are admin-only) via `POST /api/events/:id/copy-from`. Tests: `tests/eventClone.test.js`,

+## Where event series live (1.47.1)

+- `backend/src/utils/series.js` — input cleaning, `seriesForEvent`, `nextInSeries` (next public event
+  starting later), `splitEvents`, follow/unfollow, the `series` job (`runAnnounceJob`: public, not
+  started, `seriesAnnouncedAt` null → claimed, then followers filtered with `filterRecipients` as
+  news), `exportFollows`. Tests: `tests/series.test.js`; e2e `series.spec.ts`.
+- `controllers/seriesController.js` + `routes/seriesRoutes.js` (`/api/series`, campus-independent:

joshuaandClaude Opus 5.5	740897635f	Event series (1.47.1) Group separate events (Camp 2025, Camp 2026) on a series page at /series/<slug> with upcoming and past events. Events join a series from the event editor (copies keep it); a series can span campuses. Event pages show "Part of ..." and "Next in this series". Signed-in people can follow a series; the new `series` job emails followers once when a new event in it goes live, as News & announcements (opted-in only, with unsubscribe). Follows are in the data export and removed on anonymising. Migration 20261028140000_event_series. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>	2026-10-28 10:29:59 +02:00
