Fixed admin page styling inconsistencies!

Problems Found:

  1. Template inheritance inconsistency - Some admin pages used standalone HTML while others extended base.html
  2. CSS duplication - Each admin page had 300+ lines of duplicate styles for similar components
  3. Header styling variations - Different admin pages had slightly different header styles
  4. Inconsistent class naming - Mixed naming patterns (.users-table vs .admin-table)

Root Cause:

Admin pages were developed independently without a shared styling foundation, leading to massive code duplication and visual inconsistencies across the admin interface.

Solution Implemented:

New Shared Admin Foundation

  • Created _admin_base.html - Unified base template for all admin pages
  • Consolidated styles - Moved all common admin styles to shared base template
  • Standardized components - Unified buttons, tables, badges, forms, navigation
  • Consistent layout - Standard admin container, header structure across all pages

Template Refactoring

  • admin.html - Now extends _admin_base.html, removed 300+ lines of duplicate CSS
  • admin_polling.html - Converted to use base template with cleaner structure
  • admin_polling_logs.html - Completely rewritten to use base template
  • Unified class names - All admin tables now use .admin-table consistently

Benefits Achieved

  • Maintainability - Single source of truth for admin styling
  • Visual consistency - All admin pages now have identical professional appearance
  • Performance - Reduced CSS duplication improves page load times
  • Extensibility - Easy to add new admin pages with automatic consistent styling

All admin pages now share a unified, professional look and feel!
