Changelog — System - RCA Auto Menu

1.0.6 — 2026-10-13

Shippable docs/manual/ set synced with public paste sources (doc-index through support) for Content Uploader and com_content documentation menu.

Docs intro article as product menu root: when an article title matches the product Docs category (e.g. RCA ArrowChat Docs), the parent menu item links to that Single Article—not an empty separator or category list.
Auto-upgrade: existing product menu roots retarget to the intro article when it is saved or when child doc articles trigger menu root creation.
New product menu item type default: Intro article (when available); falls back to separator/heading/category per plugin setting if no intro exists yet.

Documents root category: resolves the product documentation category (direct child of Documents) from each article’s category chain.
Auto-create product menu parent (default on): under Search under menu item, creates a menu root titled like that category when CU (or admin) first saves articles for a new product—no per-product mapping row required.
New product menu item type: separator, heading, or com_content category list.

Match menu by category title (default on): parent menu = site menu item whose title matches the article’s com_content category (e.g. RCA Themer documentation). Optional Search under menu item (Documentation) limits the search. Fallback mapping table used when no title match.

J6 DatabaseQuery::bind() rejects \PDO::PARAM_INT; use Joomla\Database\ParameterType::INTEGER in category lookup and menu queries.

Category mapping: match article category or any ancestor (e.g. map Documents → Documentation menu; CU imports into RCA Themer documentation child category).

Initial internal release.
Category → parent menu item mapping (subform).
On new com_content article save: create menu item under mapped parent; menu title matches article title.
On article update: sync menu item title (and alias/published/access/language when linked item exists).
Works for Content Uploader imports and normal admin article saves.
