 ## [01.01.00] --- 2026-05-30
 
+### Planned
+- Configurable card fade-in delay (#39)
+- Video audio mute/unmute option (#40)
+
+## [01.01.00] - 2026-05-30
+
+### Fixed
+- WebAsset registration: added `#style`/`#script` suffixes to preset dependencies (was causing `UnsatisfiedDependencyException`)
+- Asset URI resolution: use `extension/filename` pattern instead of `extension/folder/filename` (Joomla auto-inserts `css/`/`js/` folders)
+- iframe video cover: split CSS into `<video>` (`object-fit: cover`) and `<iframe>` (oversize + centre-crop) rules since `object-fit` doesn't apply to iframes
+- Card link styling: exclude `.btn` elements from `color: inherit` so buttons retain their own styles
+
+### Added
+- Module title renders inside the hero card as `<h2>`, respecting Joomla's Show Title toggle
+- IntersectionObserver pauses/resumes videos when the hero scrolls out of/into the viewport (YouTube, Vimeo, and native `<video>`)
+- YouTube embeds include `enablejsapi=1` for postMessage playback control
+
 ### Changed
 - Migrated all workflow and template paths from `.github/` to `.mokogitea/`
 - Template source paths updated
