Legacy Website Module Deprecated
We’re deprecating the legacy Website module. Purchase + configuration surfaces are now disabled, legacy upload endpoints are retired, and conferences should prepare to migrate to the new Website module when it launches.

Deprecated the legacy Website module across organizer flows (store/checkout/activation/module add-ons) so it cannot be newly purchased.UPDATE
Made the Website admin editor read-only with a clear legacy notice and migration guidance for existing conferences.FIX
Retired legacy asset/CSS upload endpoints with HTTP 410 + Deprecation headers.UPDATE
Added a dashboard notice for conferences still using the legacy Website module, warning that legacy websites will stop working soon.UPDATE
Blocked Sixth Meridian approvals/force-enables for the deprecated Website module, and labeled Website pricing as legacy.FIX
Fixed middleware build compatibility by ensuring route config is statically analyzable by Next.js.UPDATE
Added a public Status page notice clarifying the legacy Website module deprecation.SDK v1.0.1
