 ## [Unreleased]
 
 ### Added
+- "Request a feature" link in the admin sidebar footer — opens a pre-filled GitHub issue (enhancement label, a short title/body template) so store owners can suggest features without any API token or account setup on the store's side.
 - Visual page builder with live preview. Every page (Admin → Pages) is built from **reorderable sections** with a **live preview** pane beside the editor — an iframe of your real storefront that re-renders as you add/reorder sections, change colours or pick a collection, with **Desktop/Mobile** width toggles and manual refresh. The editor is a two-pane layout — a collapsible left panel holds the page title, SEO, publish controls **and** the sections; the preview fills the right-hand side and can be expanded to full width. Sections **reorder by drag-and-drop** (or keyboard up/down buttons).
   - **Product & collection page templates**: shared **Product page** and **Collection page** templates (Admin → Page templates) render builder sections on every product/collection page below the core content, **plus** each individual product and collection can add its own sections ("Edit page sections" on the product/collection editor) — the global template renders first, then the item's own.
   - **Reusable sections** (Admin → Reusable sections): build a set of sections once and drop it onto any page with the **Reusable block** section — edit the block and every page using it updates. Blocks are edited in the same builder (with live preview); a missing/deleted block simply renders nothing.
