# Folx Music Television - folx.tv ## Overview The official website for Folx Music Television (folx.tv). Dark-themed bento grid layout with content for folk music (Volksmusik/Schlager) fans. Features articles, videos, photo gallery, horoscope widget + subpage, recipe widget + subpage, Google News feed, and integrated AdSense ads. All content is hardcoded in seed for production deployments. ## SEO - Primary keyword: "Volksmusik" — used across all page titles, meta descriptions, OG tags, and structured data - Dynamic canonical URLs via `usePageMeta` hook (updates `` per page) - SSR article pages: server-side meta tags (OG, Twitter, description, keywords, canonical) in both `server/vite.ts` (dev) and `server/static.ts` (prod) - SSR gallery page (`/gallery`): OG meta, Twitter card, description, canonical — emphasizes exclusive backstage/concert photos from recordings - `stripExistingMeta()` removes duplicate meta/canonical from base HTML before injecting article-specific ones - JSON-LD structured data: WebSite (home) with SearchAction, NewsArticle + BreadcrumbList (articles) - Sitemap at `/sitemap.xml` — includes all static pages, categories, horoscope signs, and articles - robots.txt disallows `/api/`, `/search`, `/admin/` - H1 tag on home page (sr-only): "FOLX TV – Volksmusik & Schlager Fernsehsender" - Logo alt text includes "Volksmusik & Schlager Fernsehsender" ## Architecture - **Frontend**: React + Vite + TailwindCSS + shadcn/ui (dark mode) - **Backend**: Express.js + Node.js - **Database**: PostgreSQL with Drizzle ORM - **Routing**: wouter (frontend), Express (backend API) ## Key Features - MSN-style bento grid homepage with mixed article/widget layout - FeaturedCarousel with 5 article pages (page 2 = wide layout) + gallery page - Photo gallery widget (547 Dropbox images) with fullscreen lightbox carousel - Horoscope widget with element colors, star ratings, full /horoskop subpage - Recipe widget + full /rezepte subpage (21 recipes across 5 regions: Österreich, Bayern, Schwaben/Baden, Südtirol/Alpen, Norddeutschland) with AI-generated images - Google News RSS widget (Volksmusik/Schlager news, 5 items, auto-rotate) - Google AdSense integration (ca-pub-4465464714854276) - Interstitial overlay ad on article pages (3s delay, shows every other article visit, sessionStorage counter) -

Article listing with featured carousel and category filtering - HTML content supports embedded iframes (bunny.net, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram, TikTok) - DOMPurify sanitization for safe HTML rendering - Responsive design with mobile navigation ## Data Model - `articles`: id (serial), title, slug (unique), excerpt, content (HTML), coverImage, category, author, featured, views, publishedAt - `article_views`: id (serial), articleId, ipHash (sha256 truncated to 16 chars), viewedAt — tracks unique IP views per article ## Seed Behavior - `server/seed.ts` runs on startup and **always syncs** article content from seedArticles array to the database - Existing articles (matched by slug) are **fully updated** with latest title, excerpt, content, coverImage, category, author, featured, publishedAt - New articles are inserted; articles not in seed list are deleted - HTML entity „/“ in title/excerpt are auto-replaced with „/" after seeding - Any changes to article content in seed.ts will be reflected on next deployment - Currently all articles are under "News" category (+ "Video" for video-only articles) - Future subcategory plan: add subcategory field for "Porträt" label on portrait articles - Portrait articles (for future subcategory): die-edlseer, die-pagger-buam, anita-hofmann, oeschs-die-dritten ## API Endpoints -

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 ## Adding Articles Workflow When adding new articles: 1. **Always optimize images first**: Resize to max 1200px wide, quality 85%, target <300KB. Use `convert` command: ``` convert input.jpg -resize 1200x -quality 85 output.jpg ``` For OG/social sharing images, use 1200x630 crop: ``` convert input.jpg -resize 1200x630^ -gravity center -extent 1200x630 -quality 85 output.jpg ``` 2. Copy optimized image to `client/public/uploads/` 3. Add article to `seedArticles` array in `server/seed.ts` 4. Add UPDATE migration at bottom of `seedDatabase()` function to update existing articles in production DB 5. If article already exists in DB, seed won't update it — must add explicit UPDATE SQL migration 6. Featured articles appear in homepage carousel; set `featured: false` for items that should not appear there 7. Videos use category "Video", news uses category "News" 8. Bunny CDN embeds: use `https://player.mediadelivery.net/embed/476412/{video-id}` — do NOT take text/title from Bunny, use user-provided text only 9. Facebook embeds: copy the iframe code as-is from user 10. After deploy, go to Facebook Sharing Debugger and click "Scrape Again" to refresh cache ## Article Page Layout - Outer wrapper: `max-w-7xl` (for PageSideAds), inner content: `max-w-4xl mx-auto` - Cover image: `max-h-[420px]` with object-cover - Title: `text-2xl md:text-3xl` font-bold - Meta (author/date/views): `text-xs` with `w-3.5 h-3.5` icons - Body text: `prose-base` with `prose-p:text-[15px]` and `prose-headings:text-lg` - In-article ad splits content at midpoint ## 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
