G&M Maintenance Portal - Session Notes (Session 3)

Date: February 5, 2026

What We Worked On

• Fixed admin client page not showing site-linked reports (Chandler Conway bug)
• Fixed save button staying "dirty" after saving a report
• Disabled "Pull Before" button after previous plugin versions are already populated to prevent accidental overwrites
• Attempted database backup restore (no backups existed yet — cron hasn't fired its first run)

Key Decisions Made

• Skip data restore for the accidentally overwritten plugin versions — fix the UI to prevent it going forward
• Replace redirect() with revalidatePath() in the report save server action so setIsDirty(false) can execute
• "Pull Before" buttons show "Pulled ✓" when disabled, manual version editing still allowed

Changes Made

3 commits pushed to main:

1. b4671f5 - Fix: Admin client page now shows site-linked reports (1 file) - frontend/app/admin/clients/[id]/page.tsx — query now includes sites.reports, combines with direct reports into allReports

2. 43813a8 - Fix: Save button dirty state not clearing after save (1 file) - frontend/app/admin/reports/[id]/page.tsx — replaced redirect() with revalidatePath() so the handler returns normally and setIsDirty(false) runs

3. d5e15cf - Fix: Disable Pull Before button after previous versions are populated (1 file) - frontend/components/Admin/PluginSection.tsx — hasPreviousData check disables both SSH "Pull Before" and API "Fetch Before" buttons

Still Pending

• Database backups haven't fired yet — cron is set for 9 AM UTC daily. First backup should appear tomorrow. Verify it works.
• Chandler Conway's plugin previousVersion data was overwritten by accidental re-pull. Eric may need to manually fix the values.
• package-lock.json has an unstaged change from swc patching — not committed, harmless.

Technical Notes

• redirect() in a Next.js Server Action throws internally (NEXT_REDIRECT error). Any code after it in the calling client function won't execute. Use revalidatePath() instead when you need the function to return normally.
• Admin client page query had where: { siteId: null } which excluded reports linked to sites. Now fetches both client.reports (direct) and client.sites[].reports (site-linked) and merges them.
• No database backups exist yet in Vercel Blob. The backups/ prefix is empty. Cron schedule is daily 9 AM UTC.
