Fixes Applied - House of Prayer Song Lyrics System

Issues Fixed

1. Profile Dropdown ✅

• Before: Showed static "Profile" button
• After: Dropdown shows selected profile name with arrow (e.g., "Default Profile ▾")
• Click to toggle dropdown listing all profiles
• Select a profile to switch active user
• Selection persists in localStorage across sessions

2. Data Storage ✅

• Before: Only backend SQLite database
• After: Hybrid system with localStorage fallback
• Toggle USE_LOCAL_STORAGE = true in api.js for offline mode
• All data (profiles, songs, plans) stored in browser localStorage
• Automatic fallback if backend is unavailable
• Default profile created on first load

3. Backend Connection Issues ✅

• Fixed: Database connection pool exhaustion (SQLAlchemy timeout)
• Added proper session closing with try/finally blocks
• Backend now stable and running on http://localhost:5000

4. Worship Planning Creation ✅

• Plans now save to localStorage successfully
• Create New Day modal works properly
• Latest plan displays on Home page
• Click to navigate to planning details
