Restore stylesheet loading through HTTPS proxies
Restores stylesheet access through verified HTTPS proxy connections and prevents failed stylesheet responses from being cached, while preserving the existing layout and colours.
Stylesheet reliability
- Verified HTTPS proxy connections are recognised so the site stylesheet can load correctly.
- Only successful stylesheet responses receive the one-hour cache setting. Failed responses keep the no-store setting, and a refreshed stylesheet URL lets browsers recover from the earlier cached failure.
- The site layout, themes and colours remain unchanged.
Safer sessions, contact forms and background maintenance
Improves contact validation, keeps pages responsive during conversion, and refreshes cached content in the background while preserving the familiar site layout.
Contact and accessibility
- Messages over 500 characters now show a validation error instead of being shortened. Contact fields have labels, a layout suited to phones, and accessible sending feedback.
- The contact form confirms submission for delivery. Homepage category links use clearer names, and the original compact sharing controls have larger touch targets.
Downloads and privacy
- Session cookies use stricter security settings. Other pages in the same browser can respond while the server prepares media.
- Repeated download metadata requests reuse recent results and pause retries after provider failures. YouTube sign-in restrictions still apply; downloads continue to use the server connection directly.
Background refresh
- Scheduled refresh serves usable cached content while updates run in the background. Existing page refresh resumes if the scheduled worker becomes unavailable.
- Scheduled cleanup removes abandoned generated files and bounds eligible caches while preserving active conversions and downloads.
Restore original homepage sharing controls
Restores the original compact sharing links and corrects the release history for the reverted redesign.
Interface
- The homepage uses the original black X, blue Facebook and green WhatsApp sharing links again. Leftover replacement markup and its added styling are removed.
Release history
- The v6.6.0 redesign entry is removed because that version was reverted and was not deployed.
Homepage share button styling
Restores the missing styling for the homepage social sharing controls.
Interface
- X, Facebook and WhatsApp sharing links now have separate padded buttons, visible spacing and keyboard focus indicators.
- The sharing row wraps on small screens and uses matching light and dark theme styling.
Download links appear after preparation
The video download page prepares MP4 and MP3 files before offering a download link.
YouTube downloads
- Prepare MP4 or MP3 on the video download page. A download link is shown only after the server creates a non-empty file; failed preparation shows a message instead.
- Prepared links belong to the visitor session and last up to 15 minutes. Existing generation limits and automatic cleanup remain; repeated preparation can reuse a ready file.
- Preparation works without JavaScript too. YouTube restrictions and temporary failures still apply; unavailable files are not advertised as ready.
