**Root Cause**: EF Core Include() was not properly materializing the Variants navigation
property despite correct SQL JOIN generation.
**Solution**: Load variants separately and manually group by ProductId for DTO mapping.
This bypasses EF Core's navigation property fixup issues.

AsNoTracking() prevents EF Core from properly wiring up navigation properties.
Removing it allows Include() to populate Variants collection correctly.

**Problem**: EF Core was not materializing Variants navigation property when using
.Select() projection directly in the query. The .Include() was being ignored.
**Solution**: Changed approach to:
1. Load entities with .Include() + .ToListAsync() first
2. Then project to DTO with in-memory .Select()
This ensures navigation properties are fully loaded before mapping to DTOs.
**Impact**: Variants will now properly appear in all product API responses.

Previous commit (e931f77) only fixed GetAllProductsAsync and GetProductByIdAsync.
This commit fixes GetProductsByCategoryAsync which also had the broken filtered Include syntax.
**Impact**: Variants will now appear when browsing products by category in TeleBot.

Critical bug where ProductVariants were never loaded from database.
**Problem:**
`.Include(p => p.Variants.Where(v => v.IsActive))` syntax was NOT
generating SQL JOIN statements in EF Core 9.0, causing all products
to return empty variants array even when variants exist in database.
**Solution:**
- Changed to simple `.Include(p => p.Variants)`
- Filtering still happens in DTO mapping (Select statement)
- Only IsActive variants are returned to API consumers
**Impact:**
- TeleBot can now display product variants with selection UI
- Variant pricing and stock levels now visible to customers
- Multi-variant products (e.g., Size/Color) now functional
**Test Case:**
Product 131cc3ad-07f4-4ec9-89ca-b05a0b4cfb41 has 7 variants:
- Size: Small, Medium, Large, XL
- Color: Black, White, Navy Blue
These will now appear in API responses and TeleBot UI.

Critical fix for production deployment issue where code changes were
deployed without corresponding database schema updates.
Changes:
- Add Price column to ProductVariants table (decimal 18,2, nullable)
- Add ProductVariantId column to OrderItems table (TEXT, nullable)
- Add index on OrderItems.ProductVariantId for query performance
This migration was manually applied to production on 2025-10-04 to
resolve "no such column: p2.Price" errors that broke the product
catalog API.
Future deployments must include database migration steps in CI/CD.

Added Price override input field to the JavaScript variant collection editor on the product Edit page.
**Changes:**
- Added Price input field (with £ symbol) in variant details section
- Updated serialization to save Price to VariantsJson
- Excluded Price from variant label generation
- Updated button text: "Price, Stock & Weight Details"
**Location:**
Product Edit > Variants Collection > Toggle Details > Price Override
Now variant prices can be set through BOTH methods:
1. Individual variant management (CreateVariant/EditVariant)
2. Bulk variant collection editor (product Edit page)

Enables individual variants to have their own prices, overriding the base product price.
**Database Changes:**
- Added Price (decimal?, nullable) to ProductVariants table
- Added ProductVariantId to OrderItems table with foreign key relationship
- Created index on OrderItems.ProductVariantId for performance
**API Changes:**
- ProductVariantDto: Added Price field
- CreateProductVariantDto: Added Price field with validation
- UpdateProductVariantDto: Added Price field
- OrderItemDto: Added ProductVariantId and ProductVariantName
- CreateOrderItemDto: Added ProductVariantId
**Business Logic:**
- OrderService: Variant price overrides base price (but multi-buy takes precedence)
- ProductService: All variant CRUD operations support Price field
**Admin UI:**
- CreateVariant: Price input with £ symbol and base price placeholder
- EditVariant: Price editing with £ symbol
- ProductVariants list: Shows variant price or "(base)" indicator
**Client Library:**
- Updated all DTOs to match server-side changes
- Full support for variant pricing in order creation
**Migration:**
- EF Core migration: 20251003173458_AddVariantPricing
- Backward compatible: NULL values supported for existing data
**Use Case:**
Products with size/color variants can now have different prices:
- Small T-shirt: £15.00 (variant override)
- Medium T-shirt: £18.00 (uses base price)
- Large T-shirt: £20.00 (variant override)

## Issue
Order creation failing with 400 BadRequest when using CustomerInfo (Telegram users).
Validator required IdentityReference to always be populated, but it's null when using CustomerInfo.
## Root Cause
CreateOrderDtoValidator.cs:10-12 enforced NotEmpty() on IdentityReference unconditionally.
TeleBot sends CustomerInfo for identified users, leaving IdentityReference null.
## Solution
Updated validator to accept EITHER IdentityReference OR CustomerInfo:
- New rule: At least one must be provided
- IdentityReference validation only applies when it's provided (.When() condition)
- Maintains backward compatibility with anonymous orders
## Impact
✅ Telegram bot orders can now be created successfully
✅ Anonymous orders still require IdentityReference
✅ Proper validation error messages for both scenarios
## Testing Required
- Create order via Telegram bot (with CustomerInfo)
- Create anonymous order (with IdentityReference)
- Verify both scenarios work correctly

Fixed checkbox to send proper boolean values:

- When unchecked: sends "false" from hidden field
- When checked: sends "true" from checkbox (overrides hidden field)

**Issue**: Edit category form not displaying existing values and not updating
- Form fields were empty when loading edit page
- Submitting changes had no effect on the category
**Root Cause**:
- Edit view used asp-for helpers which don't bind properly in production
- Create view used explicit name/id attributes which work reliably
- Model values weren't being rendered in the form fields
**Solution**:
- Changed from asp-for helpers to explicit name/id attributes
- Added value="@Model.Name" to populate name input
- Added @Model.Description between textarea tags
- Changed checkbox to @(Model.IsActive ? "checked" : "")
- Matches the working pattern from Create.cshtml
