gear, technology, search, reading-list, show-coverage, authors/[slug],
forum/thread/[id] all now render the 300x600 + 300x250 stack as a
floating right column at the top of the content area. Existing
single-column page structure preserved (content wraps).
Maximizes impression count: every pageview across these pages now
counts 300x600 + every 300x250 in the stack, on top of the existing
728x90 in Header.
The Featured-story card's right edge wasn't lining up with any of the
ad banners below or beside it on the homepage. Two root causes:
1. Pages I redesigned (/about, /about/contact, /about/team,
/about/advertise, /show-coverage/[slug]) used `max-w-6xl px-6`
(1152px / 24px-pad). Every other page uses `max-w-container
px-4` (1200px / 16px-pad). Pages didn't line up with the
header leaderboard or with each other.
2. ArticleFeed used a flexible 12-col grid where lg:col-span-4
ends up ~280px wide (depending on container) — so the 300x250
image inside the sidebar didn't extend to the column's right
edge, leaving a visual gap relative to the full-width Featured
card above.
Fix:
- All redesigned pages now use `max-w-container mx-auto px-4`.
- ArticleFeed switches to `lg:grid-cols-[1fr,300px]` so the sidebar
column is *exactly* 300px wide. The 300x250 ads fill that column
flush, so their right edge meets the container's right padding
edge — same x-position as the Featured card's right edge above.
Also linkified the "Relevant Media Properties" copyright string in
Footer.tsx → opens https://www.relevantmediaproperties.com/ in a new
tab.

Switch the bare single-column layouts on these pages to a two-column
grid that pulls in <SidebarAdStack /> on the right (pinned 300x600 +
every 300x250 rotated). Header keeps the leaderboard above. The
in-content 728x90 banners added earlier are removed since the sidebar
now carries the ad load (avoids stacking two of the same unit on the
page).
Pages updated:
- /show-coverage/[slug] event detail
- /about
- /about/contact
- /about/team
- /about/advertise (also gets a real-banner grid in "Available units":
the actual 728x90, 300x600, and 300x250 sample creatives are
rendered next to each unit's description, so advertisers see what
the inventory looks like in production rather than just a label).
The /about pages also got a small refresh: serif H1 + accent-blue
"Broadcast Beat" eyebrow line + bordered content blocks, bringing the
look closer to the cinematic homepage.

Both /show-coverage and /show-coverage/[slug] were rendering bare
<main> elements with no site chrome — no top nav, no leaderboard ad
above the page, no footer, no in-content banners.
- Wrap each page in <div className="min-h-screen bg-background">
<Header />…<Footer /></div>. <Header /> already brings the site-wide
728x90 leaderboard with it (see Header.tsx footer of the component)
so that banner appears automatically above the page content.
- Add one in-content 728x90 banner per page (between Upcoming/Past on
the index, and between event header / Coverage list on the detail
page) so the show-coverage pages carry the same ad inventory as
other sections.

Replace the four accent-family hex codes site-wide with the teal palette
(keeps the dark theme; only swaps the accent family, not the dark base):
#3b82f6 (accent primary CTA) → #5B7C8D (teal) [839×]
#2563eb (accent-dark / hover) → #4A6473 (darker teal) [44×]
#60a5fa (info link, lighter) → #8FB0C3 (mid teal) [68×]
#1e3a5f (accent-muted bg) → #2F4F5F (navy) [44×]
tailwind.config.js tokens updated to match (accent/accent-dark/accent-muted).
Sweep also covers tailwind.css. 108 files touched. The dark base (#0d0d0d,
#111, #161616, #1a1a1a etc.) is intentionally untouched.

Eliminates 72 hardcoded rocket.new image refs in one shot. Section pages
(/gear, /technology, /show-coverage, /news) now render from
bb.wp_imported_posts via getLegacyArticlesBySection(section), which maps
each non-news section to a curated tag set (e.g. gear -> Audio, Cameras,
lighting, Blackmagic Design, monitoring; technology -> AI, Streaming,
OTT, IP, Cloud, AV; show-coverage -> NAB, IBC, BroadcastAsia).
Also:
- src/lib/articles/types.ts: Article interface lifted out of the deleted
seed file. Type-only consumers (NewsArticleDetailClient,
ArticleDetailClient, legacy-source) re-imported from here.
- /news (client component) now wrapped: server fetches articles from DB
and passes to NewsPageClient. Filter UI unchanged.
- generateStaticParams on /news/[slug] and /articles/[slug] no longer
references seed slugs; pre-renders 50 most-recent imported slugs and
relies on dynamicParams + revalidate=3600 for the rest.
- sitemap.ts now sources article URLs from
getLegacyRecentSitemapEntries() (up to 5000 most-recent imported posts).
Default BASE_URL fallback updated from the rocket.new placeholder to
bb-staging.onsethost.com.
- src/app/api/ai/article-suggestions/route.ts now pulls candidates from
the DB (top 100 recent news) and resolves AI-returned slugs via DB
lookup if not in the candidate window.
Inline rocket.new image refs in homepage components (ArticleFeed,
FeaturedBento) are unchanged in this commit; those are inline seed
arrays in the components, not imports of sampleArticles.
