This release makes Django admin feedback and dashboard activity states clearer in Vanta Admin.

Added

• Added clear empty-state messages for today and yesterday in the recent-activity dashboard panel.

Changed

• Kept the Today and Yesterday activity headings visible even when either period has no entries.
• Manual message dismissal now uses the same existing timer and hover-pause behavior as automatic dismissal.

Fixed

• Fixed admin messages missing a manual close control.
• Fixed empty recent-activity groups disappearing from the dashboard.

Impact

• Admin users can dismiss feedback messages when they are finished reading them.
• The dashboard keeps a predictable Today/Yesterday structure, even when there is no recent activity.

0.15.0

• Renamed the default auth sidebar group to Admin.
• Replaced the changelist bulk-action clear icon with a clearer Cancel button.

• Bulk-action selections are easier to cancel, while Vanta still keeps normal Django admin behavior underneath.

Added

• Added a clear button for the sidebar navigation filter.

• Added Escape-to-cancel support while dragging sidebar sections.

Changed

• Refined sidebar section dragging so Vanta temporarily simplifies the sidebar state during reordering, then restores it cleanly.
• Improved the disabled reorder-handle state so it is clearer when section dragging is unavailable.
• Polished the changelist bulk action bar layout, positioning, and button styling.
• Tightened nearby input and action styling so changelist controls feel more deliberate.

Impact

• Added browser-local persistence for each user's saved sidebar section order.

Impact

• Larger Django admins feel more personal without changing project settings, permissions, models, URLs, or server-side data.
• Vanta keeps the normal Django admin underneath while making everyday navigation easier to shape per browser.

0.12.0

This release makes editing related records feel cleaner and easier in Vanta Admin.

Added

Impact

• Search results are easier to reset without starting the whole list view over.

Impact

Added

• Added a font-size selector to the sidebar account menu, with small, normal, and large options.
• Added browser-local persistence for each user's selected admin font size.

Changed

• Extended the account-menu display preferences so theme, time format, and font size live together.

Impact
