+### Fixed
+- Fixed Autotask ticket not being automatically linked to new runs when internal ticket is resolved by implementing independent Autotask propagation strategy (now checks for most recent non-deleted and non-resolved Autotask ticket on job regardless of internal ticket status, ensuring PSA ticket reference persists across runs until explicitly resolved or deleted)
+- Fixed internal and Autotask tickets being linked to new runs even after being resolved by removing date-based "open" logic from ticket query (tickets now only link to new runs if they are genuinely unresolved, not based on run date comparisons)
+- Fixed Job Details page showing resolved tickets for ALL runs by implementing two-source ticket display: directly linked tickets (via ticket_job_runs) are always shown for audit trail, while active window tickets (via scope query) are only shown if unresolved, preserving historical ticket links while preventing resolved tickets from appearing on new runs
+- Fixed Run Checks page showing resolved ticket indicators by removing date-based logic from ticket/remark existence queries (tickets and remarks now only show indicators if genuinely unresolved)
+- Fixed Run Checks popup showing resolved tickets for runs where they were never linked by replacing date-based ticket/remark queries in `/api/job-runs/<run_id>/alerts` endpoint with explicit link-based queries (now only shows tickets/remarks that were actually linked to the specific run via ticket_job_runs/remark_job_runs tables, completing the transition from date-based to explicit-link ticket system)
+
+### Changed
+- Added debug logging to ticket linking function to troubleshoot resolved ticket propagation issues (writes to AuditLog table with event_type "ticket_link_debug", visible on Logging page, logs EVERY run import to show whether tickets were found and their resolved_at status, uses commit instead of flush to ensure persistence) - **LATER REMOVED** after ticket system was fixed
+- Reduced test email generation from 3 emails per status to 1 email per status for simpler testing (each button now creates exactly 1 test mail instead of 3)
+- Updated Settings Maintenance page text to reflect that test emails are Veeam only and 1 per button (changed from "3 emails simulating Veeam, Synology, and NAKIVO" to "1 Veeam Backup Job email" per status button)
+
+### Removed
+- Removed debug logging from ticket linking function after successfully resolving all ticket propagation issues (the logging was temporarily added to troubleshoot why resolved tickets kept appearing on new runs, wrote to AuditLog with event_type "ticket_link_debug" showing ticket_id, code, resolved_at status for every run import, debug code preserved in backupchecks-system.md documentation for future use if similar issues arise)

+## v0.1.26
+
+This critical bug fix release resolves ticket system display issues where resolved tickets were incorrectly appearing on new runs across multiple pages. The ticket system has been completely transitioned from date-based logic to explicit link-based queries, ensuring resolved tickets stop appearing immediately after resolution while preserving audit trail for historical runs.
+
+### Bug Fixes
+
+**Ticket System - Resolved Ticket Display Issues:**
+
+*Root Cause:*
+- Multiple pages used legacy date-based logic to determine if tickets should be displayed
+- Queries checked if `active_from_date <= run_date` and `resolved_at >= run_date` instead of checking explicit `ticket_job_runs` links
+- Result: Resolved tickets kept appearing on ALL runs between active_from_date and resolved_at, even runs created after resolution
+- Impact: Users saw resolved tickets on new runs, creating confusion about which issues were actually active
+
+*Fixed Pages and Queries:*
+
+1. **Ticket Linking (ticketing_utils.py)**
+   - Fixed Autotask tickets not propagating to new runs after internal ticket resolution
+   - Implemented independent Autotask propagation strategy: checks for most recent non-deleted and non-resolved Autotask ticket on job regardless of internal ticket status
+   - Fixed internal tickets being linked to new runs after resolution by removing date-based "open" logic from ticket query
+   - Tickets now only link to new runs if `COALESCE(ts.resolved_at, t.resolved_at) IS NULL` (genuinely unresolved)
+
+2. **Job Details Page (routes_job_details.py)**
+   - Fixed resolved tickets appearing on ALL runs for a job
+   - Implemented two-source ticket display for proper audit trail:
+     - Direct links via `ticket_job_runs` → always shown (preserves historical context)
+     - Active window via `ticket_scopes` → only shown if unresolved
+   - Result: Old runs keep their ticket references, new runs don't get resolved tickets
+
+3. **Run Checks Main Page (routes_run_checks.py)**
+   - Fixed ticket/remark indicators (🎫/💬) showing for jobs with resolved tickets
+   - Removed date-based logic from indicator existence queries
+   - Now only shows indicators if `COALESCE(ts.resolved_at, t.resolved_at) IS NULL` (genuinely unresolved)
+
+4. **Run Checks Popup Modal (routes_api.py)**
+   - Fixed popup showing resolved tickets for runs where they were never linked
+   - Replaced date-based queries in `/api/job-runs/<run_id>/alerts` endpoint with explicit JOIN queries
+   - Tickets query: Now uses `JOIN ticket_job_runs WHERE job_run_id = :run_id`
+   - Remarks query: Now uses `JOIN remark_job_runs WHERE job_run_id = :run_id`
+   - Removed unused parameters: `run_date`, `job_id`, `ui_tz` (no longer needed)
+   - Result: Only shows tickets/remarks that were actually linked to that specific run
+
+*Testing & Troubleshooting:*
+- Temporarily added debug logging to `link_open_internal_tickets_to_run` function
+- Wrote to AuditLog table with event_type "ticket_link_debug" for troubleshooting
+- Logged ticket_id, code, resolved_at status for every run import
+- Debug logging removed after successful resolution (code preserved in documentation)
+
+**Test Email Generation:**
+- Reduced test email generation from 3 emails per status to 1 email per status
+- Each button now creates exactly 1 test mail instead of 3 for simpler testing
+
+**User Interface:**
+- Updated Settings → Maintenance page text for test email generation
+- Changed description from "3 emails simulating Veeam, Synology, and NAKIVO" to "1 Veeam Backup Job email"
+- Updated button labels from "(3)" to "(1)" to match actual behavior
+
+*Result:*
+- ✅ Resolved tickets stop appearing immediately after resolution
+- ✅ Consistent behavior across all pages (Job Details, Run Checks, Run Checks popup)
+- ✅ Audit trail preserved: old runs keep their historical ticket links
+- ✅ Clear distinction: new runs only show currently active (unresolved) tickets
+- ✅ All queries now use explicit link-based logic (no date comparisons)
+
 ## v0.1.25
 
 This release focuses on parser improvements and maintenance enhancements, adding support for new notification types across Synology and Veeam backup systems while improving system usability with orphaned job cleanup and test email generation features.
