Change log:

[3.9.2] - (20 September 2026)
- SaaS Billing with Stripe Integration — Full subscription management with Pro plan pricing ($12/month or $99/year).
- Stripe Webhook Handling — Automatic payment event processing for checkouts, subscriptions, and invoicing.
- Billing Dashboard — New billing controller and management interface for users to view plan status and manage subscriptions.

[3.9.2] - (3 August 2026)
- Shared look — New fonts and a teal accent so Link-in-Bio, Landing Page, and Resume feel like one product.
- Link-in-Bio — Cleaner public page with link icons, soft motion, and three themes: Classic, Glass, and Bold.
- Resume — Cleaner document layout, print-friendly toolbar, and a working two-column layout.
- Landing Page — Stronger full-bleed hero, lighter sections, and a font choice in page settings.

[3.9.1] - (10 July 2026)
- Restructured the main menu into logical groups (User Management, Products, Leads, Content, Settings) instead of a flat list.
- Fixed several broken admin pages (Blog, FAQs, Knowledge Base, Languages, Types) that crashed with "Cannot find module" — built the missing Vue pages and corrected their Inertia render paths.
- Fixed user/role management: role assignment was silently broken (new users always forced to Admin, several profile fields were dropped on save) — wired up proper role selection and fixed mass-assignment.
- Fixed a crash where Customer-role users hit a dead route and added demo login credentials (Admin/Customer) to the login page.
- Extended the Roles permission matrix with modules for the current features (Cards, Resumes, Leads, etc.) so admins can grant/restrict access per role.
- Made the main menu hide items a user's role doesn't have access to, and fixed a dead-end "Dashboard" link for the Customer role.
