# Phase 2 Plan 01: Registration Dictionary Phrases Summary

Registration wording from the XXXV conference update is now dictionary-backed across the public form, confirmation output, and admin registration views.

## Performance

| Metric | Value |
|--------|-------|
| Duration | ~9 minutes |
| Started | 2026-04-24T21:16:13+02:00 |
| Completed | 2026-04-24T21:25:19+02:00 |
| Tasks | 3 completed |
| Files modified | 4 modified, 2 created |

## Acceptance Criteria Results

| Criterion | Status | Notes |
|-----------|--------|-------|
| AC-1: Dictionary Contains Registration Phrase Set | Pass | Added idempotent SQL and PHP seed runner for the registration phrase set. |
| AC-2: Public Form Uses Dictionary Phrases | Pass | Public form labels/options introduced by the registration update now use `{translate}`. |
| AC-3: Confirmation And Admin Views Use Dictionary Phrases | Pass | Confirmation, admin list, and admin detail views use dictionary-backed labels and display values. |
| AC-4: Existing Registration Behavior Is Preserved | Pass | No controller/model/persistence changes; form names, radio values, pricing logic, and payment status values were preserved. |

## Accomplishments

- Added editable dictionary entries for registration labels, options, yes/no values, missing-value text, participation labels, diet labels, fee labels, and admin action/status text.
- Replaced hard-coded visible phrases in the registration form, confirmation view, admin registration list, and admin registration detail view.
- Preserved the legacy PHP/Smarty architecture and the prior registration behavior from phase 1.

## Files Created/Modified

| File | Change | Purpose |
|------|--------|---------|
| `_rejestracja/sql/2026-04-24-registration-dictionary-phrases.sql` | Created | Idempotent Polish dictionary inserts for registration phrases. |
| `_rejestracja/sql/apply-2026-04-24-registration-dictionary-phrases.php` | Created | Guarded browser/CLI runner to seed missing dictionary phrases. |
| `_rejestracja/template/partial/Index/Index.tpl` | Modified | Public form labels/options now use dictionary translations. |
| `_rejestracja/template/partial/Index/IndexSent.tpl` | Modified | Confirmation/email labels and display values now use dictionary translations. |
| `_rejestracja/Admin/template/partial/Calc/Reg.tpl` | Modified | Admin registration list labels and display values now use dictionary translations. |
| `_rejestracja/Admin/template/partial/Calc/RegEdit.tpl` | Modified | Admin registration detail/edit labels and payment status labels now use dictionary translations. |

## Verification Results

| Check | Status |
|-------|--------|
| `php -l _rejestracja/sql/apply-2026-04-24-registration-dictionary-phrases.php` | Pass |
| Hard-coded target phrase scan across public/admin registration templates | Pass; only non-visible `<!-- Zgody -->` comment remains |
| Duplicate keyword scan in PHP seed phrase list | Pass |
| Boundary check for participant controller/model files | Pass; files were not modified |

## Decisions Made

| Decision | Rationale | Impact |
|----------|-----------|--------|
| Use `registration_*` keys | Stable keys are easier to reuse than raw Polish strings with punctuation/HTML variants. | Admin dictionary can edit replacements without coupling to template wording. |
| Seed existing non-Polish languages with placeholders | Mirrors the existing `Dictionary::CheckAndAdd` convention. | Avoids missing rows if the site has more dictionary languages. |
| Replace old visible admin fee deadline text with 2026 dictionary keys | Old templates still contained outdated visible dates. | Admin display aligns with the current conference phrase set while preserving conditions and values. |

## Deviations from Plan

| Type | Count | Impact |
|------|-------|--------|
| Scope addition | 1 | Added `registration_participation_preferences` after verification found one remaining visible admin label. |
| Existing content correction | 1 | Dictionary-backed admin fee labels now show the current 03.10.2026 deadline phrase instead of legacy 2021/2024 visible text. |

## Issues Encountered

| Issue | Resolution |
|-------|------------|
| Legacy templates contain mixed/mojibake text | Touched only the registration phrases in scope and kept unrelated legacy content alone. |
| Unrelated working tree entries existed | Left `_rejestracja/Static/image/Admin/Thumbs.db` and `.vscode/ftp-kr.sync.cache.json` untouched. |

## Next Phase Readiness

**Ready:**
- Registration phrase set can be seeded and edited through `/_rejestracja/Admin/Dictionary/Index`.
- Public and admin registration views consume dictionary translations for targeted phrases.

**Concerns:**
- Production needs the dictionary seed runner or SQL applied before the new keys appear in the admin dictionary.
- Full end-to-end visual verification still depends on live/staging access.

**Blockers:**
- None for this phase.
