- Add _convertSettingsForStorage helper method to handle Settings → SettingsWithJsonStrings conversion
- Fix $saveSettings and $saveUserSettings to properly convert searchBoxes arrays to JSON strings before database storage
- Update SearchAreaView.vue to use array format instead of manual JSON.stringify conversion
- Add comprehensive test UI in PlatformServiceMixinTest.vue with visual feedback and clear demonstration of conversion process
- Document migration strategy for consolidating $updateSettings into $saveSettings to reduce code duplication
- Add deprecation notices to $updateSettings method with clear migration guidance
The fix ensures that searchBoxes arrays are properly converted to JSON strings before database storage, preventing data corruption and maintaining consistency with the SettingsWithJsonStrings type definition. The enhanced test interface provides clear visualization of the conversion process and database storage format.
Migration Strategy:
- $saveSettings: ✅ KEEP (will be primary method after consolidation)
- $updateSettings: ⚠️ DEPRECATED (will be removed in favor of $saveSettings)
- Future: Consolidate to single $saveSettings(changes, did?) method
Files changed:
- src/utils/PlatformServiceMixin.ts: Add conversion helper, fix save methods, add deprecation notices
- src/views/SearchAreaView.vue: Remove manual JSON conversion
- src/test/PlatformServiceMixinTest.vue: Add comprehensive test UI with highlighting
- docs/migration-templates/updateSettings-consolidation-plan.md: Document future consolidation strategy

Apply full database migration (databaseUtil → PlatformServiceMixin), replace
raw SQL with service methods, migrate 3 notifications to helper methods.
Preserve 1 complex modal for advanced routing features while extracting
all literal strings to NOTIFY_CAMERA_SHARE_METHOD constant.
Add computed properties (offerTabClasses, projectTabClasses) to streamline
template logic and comprehensive JSDoc documentation for all methods.
Update migration templates to mandate literal extraction from complex modals.
ProjectsView.vue now appropriately incomplete: helper methods for simple
notifications, raw $notify preserved only where advanced features required.
