chore(version): pre-release bump to 02.52.19-dev [skip ci]

fix: show progress modal for pre-extension-update backup
The pre-update backup ran synchronously in onExtensionBeforeUpdate with no browser feedback — the page just hung until backup + update finished. Now the system plugin injects JavaScript on com_installer and com_joomlaupdate pages that intercepts the update button, shows a Bootstrap modal with a progress bar, and runs the backup via the stepped AJAX API (ajax.init + ajax.step). On completion it proceeds with the original update. On failure it shows Skip & Cancel buttons. The server-side handler remains as a fallback for CLI/API updates. A session flag prevents double-running when JS already handled it. Claude-Session: https://claude.ai/code/session_01MbEjBtsSjPuTWhqqrMS2wG

 # Changelog

 ## [Unreleased]

-### Added
- Pre-update backup **notice + live-progress modal** on the admin update pages (Joomla Update and Extensions → Update). Because the server-side `onExtensionBeforeUpdate` backup runs synchronously and can't drive a browser modal, the system plugin now injects a "back up before you update" notice with a **Back up now** button that runs the same stepped backup as the dashboard and shows a live progress bar. On success it pings a new `ajax.preupdateAck` endpoint, which arms the same throttle the server-side hook checks — so clicking Joomla's Update afterwards won't run a duplicate backup. Gated by the existing `show_update_notice` + `backup_before_update` params. (#196)
- Pre-update modal **phase 2 — "Auto-run on Update click"** (new opt-in param `preupdate_auto_intercept`, off by default). When enabled, clicking the toolbar **Update** button on the Joomla Update / Extensions-update page first pops the backup progress modal, runs the pre-update backup, then automatically continues the update. Implemented by wrapping `Joomla.submitbutton` for the `update.update` / `update.install` tasks only (Find Updates / Clear Cache are untouched); the manual "Back up now" notice remains as a fallback for any flow that doesn't route through `submitbutton`. (#196)
- Retention now prunes **remote** copies too: when a backup is pruned by age/count, its archive is deleted from every enabled remote destination (SFTP / FTP / S3 / Google Drive), not just the local copy. Each uploader gained an idempotent `delete()` method (already-absent file = success), and removal is best-effort — a failing destination is logged but never blocks local pruning. The shared standalone `restore.php` is intentionally left in place (every backup overwrites it, so newer backups still depend on it). (#229)
+## [02.52.18] --- 2026-06-30

-### Changed
- Consolidated backup plumbing into shared helpers (#230):
-  - New `RemoteUploaderFactory` replaces the `createUploaderFromParams()` copy that was duplicated in `BackupEngine` and `SteppedBackupEngine`.
-  - `RetentionManager` is now the single retention authority — it takes the global `max_age_days`/`max_backups` fallback and gained `pruneOrphans()`; the system plugin's hourly cleanup delegates to it and its duplicate `deleteBackupRecord()` logic is removed.
-  - The backend controller, Web Services API controller, and legacy `cli/mokosuitebackup.php` now run backups through the shared `BackupRunner` (gaining the normalized complete/warning/fail status) instead of instantiating `BackupEngine` directly.
+## [02.52.18] --- 2026-06-30

-### Fixed
- Standalone restore script generation no longer aborts backups with `str_replace() expects at least 3 arguments, 2 given`. `MokoRestore::generateStandaloneScript()` had a `str_replace()` call (the "Backup Archive" pre-check rewrite) that was missing its `$php` subject argument, so **every** standalone-mode backup fatally errored while "Generating standalone restore.php…" — the archive still finalized and uploaded, but no `restore.php` was ever produced (the true root cause behind #226). (#226)
- Remote upload: the standalone restore script upload is no longer silent — its result is now checked and logged, and a failed restore-script upload marks the backup as `warning` (previously the result was discarded, so a missing restore script on the remote went unreported while the archive still showed success). (#226)
+## [01.45.00] --- 2026-06-28

+
+## [01.45.00] --- 2026-06-28
+
+## [01.43.35] --- 2026-06-28

 ### Added
- SFTP destinations: **upload an SSH private key file** in the Add/Edit Destination modal instead of pasting it (reads the file into the key field client-side; pasting still works).
+- Customizable restore script filename per backup profile (reduces discoverability on remote servers)
+- MokoRestore standalone mode: multi-ZIP selector when multiple backup archives are present
+- MokoRestore preflight: Joomla installation detection warning before overwriting an existing site
+- MokoRestore error handling: try/catch on fetch calls, HTTP status checks, JSON parse recovery
+- Download button on individual backup record detail toolbar
+- Profile column in backup records list links to the profile edit view

 ### Changed
- Add/Edit Destination modal: wrap the content in a Bootstrap `.container-fluid` and give it a 1rem padding frame via the WAM stylesheet (Bootstrap's `.modal-content` has no padding of its own).
+- Moved download, browse archive, and view log actions from backup list rows into the individual backup record view
+- Removed "Run Backup" / "Backup Now" buttons from profiles list, profile edit toolbar, and backup records view (backups are triggered from the dashboard only)
+- Removed ordering field from profiles; default sort is now by ID ascending
+- MokoRestore cleanup and security messages now reference the actual script filename instead of hardcoded "restore.php"

 ### Fixed
- Pre-update backup now shows an admin notification on **every** outcome (success / warning / failure) — previously a *successful* pre-update backup fired nothing, so it looked like the notification wasn't working. (#192)
+- SSH key indicator detection and missing delete language key
+- Bootstrap 5 modal conversion for snapshots view (data-bs-dismiss, modal-footer, getOrCreateInstance)
+- ntfy default URL changed from ntfy.sh to ntfy.mokoconsulting.tech
+- Untranslated JFIELD_ORDERING_ASC / JFIELD_ORDERING_LABEL language keys replaced with component-specific keys
+- Options page title now shows "MokoSuiteBackup Options" instead of raw language key
+- Profile dropdown IDs in backup records and dashboard show "#ID — Title (type)" format
+- MokoRestore stalling: unhandled promise rejections from network errors or non-JSON responses left UI in loading state

-### Changed
- Component admin CSS now loads via the Joomla **Web Asset Manager** (`media/com_mokosuitebackup/` + `joomla.asset.json`) instead of an inline `<style>` block.
- "Keep local copy" is configured **per remote destination** (in the Add/Edit Destination modal); the redundant profile-level field and its "Remote" tab are removed.
- Add/Edit Destination modal: cleaned up the cramped padding/margins.
-
-### Fixed
- Admin menu / duplicate-component fallout: (a) the orphaned `com_component-mokosuitebackup` is now removed in **preflight** too, so its "Backup" menu no longer collides on install ("The alias backup is already being used"); (b) `ensureSubmenuItems()` **recreates the top-level "Backup" menu** if it was deleted, instead of giving up — so Backup no longer disappears from the admin menu (and the cPanel module / MokoSuiteClient can find it again); (c) the component menu label now uses the short constant `COM_MOKOJOOMBACKUP_SHORT`. (#213 fallout)
- Installer no longer aborts on MySQL 8 with "This command is not supported in the prepared statement protocol yet" (error 1295). The legacy remote-column purge migration (`02.56.01.sql`) used `PREPARE`/`EXECUTE`/`DEALLOCATE`, which Joomla's installer rejects; the drop now runs in the package installer script via an INFORMATION_SCHEMA-gated plain `ALTER` (portable across MariaDB and MySQL 8). (#213 update path)
-
-## [02.57.00] --- 2026-07-05
-
-### Added
- `BackupRunner` service — a single synchronous entry point for backups that unifies final status and notification gating across the pre-update, web-cron, pre-install, scheduled-task and CLI triggers (delegates to `BackupEngine`; no double-notify). Returns a normalized result including the real complete/warning/fail status. Dashboard "Backup Now" (AJAX) unchanged; installer progress popup deferred to #196. (#214)
-
-### Fixed
- Release automation: the changelog-promote step is now idempotent — it only inserts a `## [version]` header when that version isn't already present, preventing the empty, duplicated version headers that repeated/same-version builds were producing. (workflow)
-
-## [02.56.11] --- 2026-07-05
-
-### Fixed
- Package `postflight` now removes the orphaned `com_component-mokosuitebackup` registration (stray extension record, admin menu items, schema rows, and `administrator/` folder) left behind by the old "Type - Name" component `<name>` — self-healing on update so affected sites reconcile to the real `com_mokosuitebackup`. (#213 follow-up)
-
-## [02.56.08] --- 2026-07-05
-
-### Fixed
- Component manifest `<name>` reverted to the element-safe `MokoSuiteBackup`. The "Type - Name" convention derived element `com_component-mokosuitebackup`, registering a duplicate component and leaving the real `com_mokosuitebackup` orphaned on the old version. (#213)
-
-## [02.56.07] --- 2026-07-05
-
-### Security
- Mask the FTP password in `AjaxController::maskSecrets()`/`mergeExistingSecrets()` — stored FTP remotes no longer leak their password via `listRemotes`. (#169)
- Stop the API single-item view (`Backups/JsonapiView`) leaking the server `absolute_path`. (#187)
- SFTP uploader uses `StrictHostKeyChecking=accept-new` instead of `no`. (#182)
-
-### Fixed
- `DatabaseDumper` writes a real newline after `DROP TABLE` (was a literal `\n`). (#179)
- Profile-picker forms order by `id` instead of the dropped `ordering` column. (#180)
- `uninstall.mysql.sql` now drops the snapshots table. (#181)
- CLI snapshot delete uses the `data_file` column (was non-existent `file_path`). (#184)
- Remove the duplicate pre-update backup (content plugin no longer subscribes to `onExtensionBeforeUpdate`). (#186)
- `DatabaseImporter` collects non-fatal statement errors (`getErrors()`/`hasErrors()`). (#188)
