webmaster 9d14652a57 hide [hidden] site-wide: one [hidden] { display:none !important } in style.css
A filtered-out directory card stayed visible. The card is targeted by an
id-based ready-state selector (`.js #directory[data-dir-state="ready"]
#dirGrid > .dev-card`, two ids), which outranked the old per-element patch
`.dev-card[hidden] { display:none }` — so `card.hidden = true` set the
attribute and every card stayed on screen while the count line correctly
read "Showing 1 of 4".

Fix: one rule, `[hidden] { display:none !important }`, early in /style.css.
A class- or id-based `display` can no longer beat the attribute, so this
cannot recur with the next class that sets `display`. The per-element
`[hidden]` patches are removed so a single mechanism governs:
 - odoo-community-developers: cards + filter row + pager + modal
   (load-bearing — each sets `display`); focus-sliders/noscript (redundant)
 - index/de/es `.hero-notice[hidden]`, odoo-black-friday `.ads-consent[hidden]`
   (redundant — those elements set no `display`)
Re-fingerprint local assets (style.css changed): /style.css?v 3332fbba93 ->
061517baef across 51 pages.

Measured in a real browser (local harness, stubbed webhook; no record created,
no probe write) — computed display + geometry, never the `hidden` property:
 - filtered to one card: the other three report display:none and height 0;
   the visible set (1) equals the count line ("Showing 1 of 4") — 1 == 1
 - HEAD (pre-fix) reproduces the defect: 3 cards hidden=true yet display:flex,
   height 599.38 each; 4 visible vs the count's 1
 - pager: display:none height 0 with one page; display:flex height 66.83 with
   12 cards (Page 1 of 2); page 2 hides page-1 cards (display:none)
 - modals closed: display:none height 0; load state: cards 0, pager/empty
   display:none, filter row visibility:hidden by design
 - 375 px: same result, no horizontal overflow; avatar ask-row top identical
   across a row (2053.97 / links 2086.91)

<p>Two weeks. That is how long it took us to bring up Odoo 20 on our servers, with all of the new features that come with it. It is live now.</p><p>But the version upgrade is not the whole story. Alongside it, we shipped a set of updates to our <a href="../../odoo-hosting-2027.html">management console</a> — the place where you manage your Odoo hosting from inside Odoo itself.</p><h2>An MCP Server for Your Agent</h2><p>The biggest addition is an MCP server that lets your agent control your Odoo hosting directly. That means an agent can:</p><ul><li>Restart the server</li><li>Upload modules</li><li>Add and check domains</li><li>Manage your backups</li><li>Read the logfiles</li></ul><p>Instead of clicking through menus to handle routine hosting tasks, you can hand them to an agent and stay focused on your actual work.</p><h2>Logfiles You Can Keep</h2><p>Logfiles can now be downloaded and archived. When something needs investigating, you can pull the logs and hold on to them, rather than scrolling through a live view and hoping the relevant lines are still there by the time you look.</p><h2>Free Backups for Everyone</h2><p>We also added a free backup scheme for every customer. Backups are the least glamorous part of hosting and the one you miss most when they are gone. Having a baseline in place for everyone meaningfully improves data security across the board.</p><h2>Better AI Server Management</h2><p>Finally, we improved our AI server management backend — the layer that connects the agent-facing tools to the underlying hosting infrastructure. It is now more capable and better suited to the way these tools are actually used.</p><h2>What It Adds Up To</h2><p>Odoo 20 running on our servers, a console that manages your Odoo from within Odoo, an MCP server that opens hosting tasks up to your agent, downloadable and archivable logfiles, a free backup scheme, and a stronger AI management backend. All of it is available now.</p><p>Take a look at our homepage and <a href="../../index.html#pricing">sign up for a trial</a> to see how it works in practice.</p>
