   "1.0.5":
     changed:
-      - Reworked ticket creation to use a normal HTTP POST route instead of the Livewire update endpoint, preventing proxy or hashed Livewire update-route 404s from blocking ticket creation.
-      - Added a dedicated TicketStoreController for standard ticket creation validation, attachments and redirects.
-      - Changed the ticket-create Blade form to use real form field names, CSRF protection and a non-Livewire rich HTML editor payload.
-      - Removed the module-level Livewire update route override so the Helpdesk module no longer changes the application's global Livewire endpoint.
+      - Added the missing POST helpdesk.tickets.store route so native form submission to /helpdesk/tickets no longer returns 404.
+      - Added TicketStoreController as a safe non-JavaScript fallback while keeping the Livewire ticket create flow intact.
+      - Updated the ticket create form with method, action, CSRF, multipart support and named fields for fallback posting.
       - Kept module.json version in sync with changelog.yaml.
 
+  "1.0.6":
+    changed:
+      - Rebuilt the Helpdesk database seeder with the requested Categories, Team, Priority and Status lookup values.
+      - Added contrasting colour assignments for seeded lookup records.
+      - Corrected the seeder namespace to Modules\\Helpdesk\\Database\\Seeders for PSR-4 module autoloading.
+      - Kept module.json version in sync with changelog.yaml.
