What’s changed?
- We upgraded frontend libraries to improve view loading.

- The default page sizes have been increased to show more content per page.
- The paging arrows will be completely hidden when only one page exists.
- Post counts in the menu have been restored.
- We made the application startup more robust, preventing unnecessary reloading of content.
What’s New?
- Searching for numbers will search for matching post IDs.
- Vagrant VM was overhauled to perform a more complete install.
- Form groups can now be created and edited from the UI.
- User paging preferences are now persistent.
