## Publishing Workflow

### Adding or Updating Articles
1. **Edit seed data**: Update `server/seed.ts` with new article data
   - Add new articles to the `articlesData` array
   - Update existing articles as needed
   - Use unique slugs for SEO-friendly URLs
2. **Run seed locally** (for development testing):
   - Execute: `npm run seed` 
   - This populates the development database with article data
3. **Commit changes**: Push code changes to the repository
4. **Deploy to production**:
   - Deployment is configured as "autoscale" type in `.replit`
   - Build command: `npm run build`
   - Run command: `node ./dist/index.cjs`
   - The production database is separate from the development database
   - **Important**: Seed must run on every deploy to ensure the production database is updated with new/modified articles
   - To run seed on deploy, add seed execution to the deployment process or manually trigger seed after deployment

### Database Management
- **Development**: Local PostgreSQL database (populated by `npm run seed`)
- **Production**: Separate PostgreSQL database on Replit deployment
- All article content is hardcoded in `server/seed.ts` for reproducible deployments
- The `DATABASE_URL` environment variable automatically points to the correct database (local for dev, production for deploy)

### Deployment Checklist
- [ ] Update `server/seed.ts` with new article data
- [ ] Test locally: run `npm run seed` and verify articles appear in dev
- [ ] Run `npm run build` to ensure no build errors
- [ ] Commit all changes
- [ ] Deploy via Replit deployment interface
- [ ] After deployment, ensure seed runs on the production database (may require manual trigger or additional setup)
- [ ] Verify live site at https://www.folx.tv shows updated content

## Important Notes
- Tailwind `object-[center_25%]` does NOT work — must use inline `style={{ objectPosition: "center 25%" }}`
- Horoscope widget navigates to /horoskop on click (no modal)
- News widget external links open in new tab (target="_blank")
- FeaturedCarousel: page 1 = wide (5 cols, no side cards), last page = gallery
- All images use `objectPosition: "center 25%"` for better face cropping
