Layout:
- Removed max-w-6xl from <main> — content now fills available width
- Removed padding from <main> — each page manages its own padding
- Heroes go edge-to-edge (no inner margins)
- Content below heroes has p-4 md:p-6 lg:p-8 padding wrapper
- WhatsApp banner has its own margin so it doesn't break hero bleed
- overflow-hidden on main prevents horizontal scroll from heroes
All 6 pages:
- Hero section sits flush against edges (no gaps)
- Content below hero wrapped in padding container
- Two-column grids now use the FULL available width
- On a 1920px screen: sidebar 192px + content fills remaining ~1728px
- Right columns are now substantial (5/12 of full width = ~720px)
Home:
- Empty state: 2-column with 'How it works' 5-step guide

Money:

- Step 2: 'Where should donors send money?' (natural follow-up)
- Step 3: 'Want auto-reminders?' (WhatsApp as bonus, skippable)
- Step 4: 'Here's your link!' (dark section with copy/WhatsApp/share)
- Auto-creates event + first pledge link during flow
- User holds a shareable link within 90 seconds of signing up
Updated: /dashboard (context-aware home)
- State 1 (no events): auto-redirects to /dashboard/welcome

- State 4 (has 'said paid'): amber prompt to upload bank statement
- State 5 (100% collected): celebration banner
- No more onboarding checklist — dashboard adapts instead
- Event name as page header (not generic 'Home')
- Event switcher for multi-event orgs
Updated: /signup → redirects to /dashboard/welcome (not /dashboard)

POSITIONING FIX — PNPL is NOT just 'QR codes at events':
- Charities collecting at events (QR per table)
- High-net-worth donor outreach (personal links via WhatsApp/email)
- Org-to-org pledges (multi-charity projects)
- Personal fundraisers (LaunchGood/Enthuse redirect)
TERMINOLOGY (throughout app):
- Events → Campaigns (sidebar, pages, create dialogs, onboarding)
- QR Codes page → Pledge Links (sharing-first, QR is one option)
- Scans → Clicks (not just QR scans)
- 'New Event' → 'New Campaign'
- 'Create QR Code' → 'Create Pledge Link'
- Source label: 'Table Name' → 'Source / Channel'
SHARING (pledge links page):
- 4-button share row: Copy · WhatsApp · Email · More (native share)
- Each link shows its full URL
- Create dialog suggests: 'WhatsApp Family Group, Table 5, Instagram Bio'
- QR code is still shown but as one option, not the hero
LANDING PAGE (complete rewrite):
- Hero: 'Collect pledges. Convert them into donations.'
- 4 use case cards: Events, HNW Donors, Org-to-Org, Personal Fundraisers
- 'Share anywhere' section: WhatsApp, QR, Email, Instagram, Twitter, 1-on-1
- Platform support: Bank Transfer, LaunchGood, Enthuse, JustGiving, GoFundMe, Any URL
- Islamic fund types section: Zakat, Sadaqah, Sadaqah Jariyah, Lillah, Fitrana
ZAKAT & FUND TYPES:
- Organization.zakatEnabled toggle in Settings
- Pledge.fundType: general, zakat, sadaqah, lillah, fitrana
- Identity step: fund type picker (5 options) when org has zakatEnabled
- Zakat note: Quran 9:60 categories reference
- Settings: toggle card with fund type descriptions
FUND ALLOCATION:
- Event.fundAllocation: 'Mosque Building Fund', 'Orphan Sponsorship' etc.
- Charities can also add external URL for reference/allocation (not just fundraisers)
- Shows on campaign cards and pledge flow
OLD FLOW (8+ screens):
signup (4 fields) → auto-login → setup wizard step 1 → step 2 → step 3 → step 4 → dashboard
NEW FLOW (2 screens):
signup (3 fields) → dashboard with inline checklist
- Signup page: just charity name + email + password. No 'your name' field. One button.
- Dashboard: shows getting-started checklist when org has no pledges yet
- /api/onboarding: returns setup progress (bank, event, qr, pledge)
- Checklist: progress bar, next-step highlighting, done states with strikethrough
- Each step links directly to the right page (settings, events, pledges)
- Tip shown for brand new orgs: 'Add bank details first'
- No more separate setup wizard — guidance is inline on the dashboard
- Signup loading state: pulsing emoji while account creates
AUTH:
- NextAuth with credentials provider (bcrypt password hashing)
- /api/auth/signup: creates org + user in transaction
- /login, /signup pages with clean minimal UI
- Middleware protects all /dashboard/* routes → redirects to /login
- Session-based org resolution (no more hardcoded 'demo' headers)
- SessionProvider wraps entire app
- Dashboard header shows org name + sign out button
LANDING PAGE:
- Full marketing page at / with hero, problem, how-it-works, features, CTA
- 'Get Started Free' → /signup → auto-login → /dashboard/setup
- Clean responsive design, no auth required for public pages
WAHA QR FIX:
- WAHA CORE doesn't expose QR value via API or webhook
- Now uses /api/screenshot (full browser capture) with CSS crop to QR area
- Settings panel shows cropped screenshot with overflow:hidden
- Auto-polls every 5s, refresh button
MULTI-TENANT:
- getOrgId() tries session first, then header, then first-org fallback
- All dashboard APIs use session-based org
- Signup creates isolated org per charity
