HIGH PRIORITY: Fixes production 404 error on research inquiry form
Research Inquiry API:
- Add POST /api/research-inquiry endpoint for form submissions
- Add admin endpoints for inquiry management (list, get, assign, respond, delete)
- Create ResearchInquiry model with MongoDB integration
- Add to moderation queue for human review (strategic quadrant)
- Include rate limiting (5 req/min) and CSRF protection
- Tested locally: endpoint responding, data saving to DB
Umami Analytics (Privacy-First):
- Add Docker Compose config for Umami + PostgreSQL
- Create nginx reverse proxy config with SSL support
- Implement privacy-first tracking script (DNT, opt-out, no cookies)
- Integrate tracking across 26 public HTML pages
- Exclude admin pages from tracking (privacy boundary)
- Add comprehensive deployment guide (UMAMI_SETUP_GUIDE.md)
- Environment variables added to .env.example
Files Created (9):
- src/models/ResearchInquiry.model.js
- src/controllers/research.controller.js
- src/routes/research.routes.js
- public/js/components/umami-tracker.js
- deployment-quickstart/nginx-analytics.conf
- deployment-quickstart/UMAMI_SETUP_GUIDE.md
- scripts/add-umami-tracking.sh
- scripts/add-tracking-python.py
- SESSION_SUMMARY_ANALYTICS_RESEARCH_INQUIRY.md
Files Modified (29):
- src/routes/index.js (research routes)
- deployment-quickstart/docker-compose.yml (umami services)
- deployment-quickstart/.env.example (umami config)
- 26 public HTML pages (tracking script)
Values Alignment:
✅ Privacy-First Design (cookie-free, DNT honored, opt-out available)
✅ Human Agency (research inquiries require human review)
✅ Data Sovereignty (self-hosted analytics, no third-party sharing)
✅ GDPR Compliance (no personal data in analytics)
✅ Transparency (open-source tools, documented setup)
Testing Status:
✅ Research inquiry: Locally tested, data verified in MongoDB
⏳ Umami analytics: Pending production deployment
Next Steps:
1. Deploy to production (./scripts/deploy.sh)
2. Test research form on live site
3. Deploy Umami following UMAMI_SETUP_GUIDE.md
4. Update umami-tracker.js with website ID after setup

* Links to blog post via blogPostId
- Archive 'Letter to The Economist' from blog posts (it's the cover letter)
- Fix date display on article cards (use published_at)
- Target publication already displaying via blue badge
Database changes:
- Make blogPostId optional in SubmissionTracking model
- Economist package ID: 68fa85ae49d4900e7f2ecd83
- Le Monde package ID: 68fa2abd2e6acd5691932150
