0.4.0
This release adds display preferences to the sidebar account menu and makes date-heavy changelists easier to scan.
Added
- Added a time-format selector to the sidebar account menu, with 12-hour and 24-hour options.
- Added browser-local persistence for the selected time format.
- Added shorter changelist date formatting with abbreviated month names and day-first ordering.
Changed
- Reworked the account popup into clearer sections for display preferences, account links, support, and logout.
- Changed the theme switcher into compact icon controls inside the new Display section.
- Widened the account popup so the new display controls fit cleanly on desktop and mobile.
Impact
- Admin users can choose the time format that fits how they read operational tables.
- Date and time values in plain changelist cells are easier to scan without changing Django models, database values, or server-side formats.
Notes
- The time-format preference is stored in the browser with the rest of the theme behavior.
- Vanta still keeps Django admin server-rendered and does not add a frontend build step.
