🛠️ Enhancements & Improvements
💰 Comprehensive Financial & Fund Management
Building on our financial overhaul, local currency formatting and donation tracking are now seamless across all screens.

- Refactored Donation Fund Editor: Managing pledge funds and donation categories is faster, more reliable, and fully integrated into the modern finance module.
- Open Deposit Indicators: A new badge on the main Finance navigation menu displays the count of open deposits at a glance, helping staff keep track of pending accounting tasks.

👥 Usability & Navigation Polish
We have eliminated common display issues across menus, carts, and report tools.
- Cart to Group Routing: Fixed an issue where opening the Cart to Group tool with an empty selection prevented group and role dropdowns from displaying.
- Clean & Consistent Icons: Restored missing navigation, PDF export, and shopping cart icons across all headers and tables for a uniform visual experience.
- Improved Badge Layouts: Adjusted birthday and anniversary badge text to display cleanly on a second line, preventing text overlap on member profile cards.

⚙️ Administration & Ongoing Platform Safety
As with every release, we continually work behind the scenes to keep your software safe, stable, and secure.
- Calendar Sidebar Translations: Public and private calendar names in the sidebar now automatically adapt to your active language settings.
