Requirements:
- parametres.php toggle: 'restricted_files_enabled' enables/disables the feature
- Public TFE page: when enabled + access_type=Interne, hides files, shows French
restriction message + access request form (metadata/synopsis still visible)
- ERG emails (@erg.school / @erg.be): auto-approve, send 24h access link immediately
- External emails: show justification textarea, create pending request, notify admin
- Admin panel /admin/file-access.php: approve/reject requests with optional notes,
sends access email on approval (linked from admin nav with pending count badge)
Security:
- One-time 24h email tokens (used_at + is_valid=0 on first click)
- Token redeemed via POST /validate-access (GET shows confirmation page only)
- Long-lived 30-day browser session in file_access_sessions table
- Cookie: HttpOnly + Secure + SameSite=Strict
- CSRF on all mutations, rate limiting on request submission
- Audit trail: IP, UA, event, timestamp in file_access_audit
Bug fixes:
- admin/file-access.php: $vars never extract()ed → page was blank
- Template had self-contained head/footer includes (double-include)
- Admin approval URL used $requestId instead of $request['thesis_id']
- App::boot() now starts session so CSRF token works on public pages
- Dispatcher routes /validate-access and /request-access through front controller
- Add dedicated 'confirmation_email' (type=email, required) field
to student form at end of submission (partage + admin).
- ThesisCreateController now validates it is present and a valid
email; form is rejected if missing/invalid.
- Autofocus mapping for confirmation_email errors.
- StudentEmail uses confirmation_email directly (removed extractEmail
hack that mined email from free-form contact field).
- Remove require_once for config/config.php (file was never deployed — outside app/)
- Inline DB path resolution directly in Database::determineDatabasePath()
- Uses APP_ROOT when defined (bootstrap already loaded), falls back to __DIR__/../
- DB_ENV=test|prod env-var override preserved for tests
- php -S cli-server -> test.db, nginx/fpm -> posterg.db
- Create app/public/index.php as front controller (bootstrap + Dispatcher)
- Rewrite app/router.php for PHP dev server → all non-asset requests to index.php
- Update Dispatcher to render full page layouts (head+header+view+footer)
- Move public view templates into templates/public/ (home, search, tfe, about, repertoire)
- Delete dead direct-access public/*.php files (apropos, search, tfe, licence, repertoire)
- Add clean URL routes to Dispatcher (/search, /tfe, /repertoire, /apropos, /licence, /media)
- Remove .php extensions from all internal links (header, views, templates, URLs)
- Update OG tags in controllers to use clean URLs
- Update nginx posterg.conf → front-controller try_files pattern, block direct .php access
- Update header.php and search-bar.php form actions to clean URLs
- Switch AboutController nav key from 'nav' to 'currentNav' for consistency
