Norse v2.6.0
Improvements
- Configurable “View Details” button — tenants can now customize the button text and switch between button and text-link style via the CMS (ISS-439)

- Customizable search suggestion headers (ISS-433) — all suggestion section headers are now configurable in the CMS
- Umami analytics tracking for search events — manual searches and suggestion clicks are now tracked

Bug Fixes
- Fixed search bar race condition — refactored the search bar to eliminate timing issues that caused inconsistent behavior (ISS-803)

- Fixed banner icon display (ISS-819)

Accessibility
