🚀 StoryBoost 🚀

✨A modern Stories upgrade for Sngine — reactions, private replies, polls, background music, highlights, and analytics, with zero database restructuring.

📝 StoryBoost adds Instagram/TikTok-style features to Sngine's native Stories: 😍 emoji reactions, 💬 private replies, 🗳️ two-option polls, 🎵 background music with a built-in picker, ⭐ permanent highlights, and 📊 per-story analytics — plus an admin dashboard to manage all of it. Installs as a self-contained add-on with its own database tables; core Sngine files are untouched unless you opt into the automatic popup/menu patcher.

📖 Sngine's built-in Stories feature is solid but bare-bones. StoryBoost drops in as a self-contained plugin and brings it up to the standard users expect from modern stories: reactions, replies, music, highlights, and analytics — all with a redesigned "Create New Story" popup.

🔥 Why StoryBoost

• 📦 Self-contained — its own database tables (all prefixed storyboost_), its own PHP endpoints. Nothing in Sngine's core stories, users, or other tables is touched or restructured.
• 🎨 Works on any theme, out of the box — reactions, replies, polls, highlights, and analytics are pure front-end overlays that watch Sngine's existing Stories timeline and viewer. No template edits required for any of it.
• ⚡ One-click automatic installer for the two features that do need theme/core changes (the music picker in the Create Story popup, and a real "StoryBoost" entry in Sngine's own Admin Panel sidebar) — no manual code editing, no FTP diffing. The tool backs up every file it touches before changing anything, and it's safe to re-run any time, including after a Sngine update.
• 🖌️ Pre-built support for Default, and Diamond_Pro themes, with the sidebar/admin integration working automatically on any theme, including renamed or forked copies.
• 🔌 Fully removable — a single "Enable StoryBoost" toggle turns off all the new CSS/JS site-wide; stories revert to Sngine's native, unmodified look.

🌟 Features

• 😍 Emoji reactions — tap a reaction while viewing a story; admin picks which emoji set is offered (up to 10).
• 💬 Private replies — a reply box under other people's stories, routed to the story owner's own StoryBoost inbox (separate from Sngine's Messages system).
• 🎵 Background music — admin uploads mp3/ogg/wav/m4a tracks; users attach one to their story via a simple picker with search and preview playback baked into the Create Story flow.
• ⭐ Highlights — save story items into a permanent, named highlight reel that survives past the normal 24-hour expiry, shown as a bubble row on the profile page.
• 📊 Analytics — story owners see live view/reply/top-reaction counts on their own story; admins get a sitewide stats summary plus a live, paginated list of every currently-active story with one-click delete.
• ⚙️ Admin dashboard — configure every feature toggle, manage the music library, moderate replies, and monitor active stories, either standalone or embedded directly in Sngine's own Admin Panel.
• 📐 Customizable story size — adjust story bubble/tile height (140–420px) site-wide from Settings, no template edits.
