hotfix: Disable analytics to fix gallery clicks - Issue #263

[maxrantil]

Problem

Gallery images are not clickable on production site (both desktop and mobile) due to analytics server failure.

Root Cause: Analytics server (analytics.idaromme.dk) is down (504 Gateway Timeout), returning HTML error page instead of JavaScript. Browser blocks this with MIME type mismatch error, which breaks React hydration and prevents all client-side interactivity including gallery clicks.

Evidence

Browser Console Errors:

GET https://analytics.idaromme.dk/script.js NS_ERROR_CORRUPTED_CONTENT
MIME type mismatch ("text/html" instead of "application/javascript")

Server Response:

$ curl -I https://analytics.idaromme.dk/script.js
HTTP/2 504 Gateway Time-out
content-type: text/html

Solution

Hotfix: Temporarily disable analytics script loading in analytics-provider.tsx until analytics server is restored.

// HOTFIX Issue #263: Analytics server down (504 timeout)
console.warn('⚠️ Analytics temporarily disabled - server unavailable')
return  // Skip script loading

Impact

• ✅ Fixes critical bug preventing gallery clicks
• ⚠️ Temporarily disables analytics tracking
• ✅ No performance impact (actually improves TTI slightly)
• ✅ No user-facing changes except gallery works again

Testing

Manual Testing Required:

1. Deploy to production
2. Test desktop gallery clicks (Safari, Brave)
3. Test mobile gallery clicks (iPhone Safari, iPhone Brave with Lockdown Mode)
4. Verify no JavaScript errors in console
5. Confirm React hydration completes successfully

Next Steps

After verifying gallery works:

1. Investigate analytics server issue (Docker container? Nginx config?)
2. Fix analytics.idaromme.dk
3. Add error handling to analytics loading (try/catch, fallback)
4. Re-enable analytics in new PR

Files Changed

• src/app/components/analytics-provider.tsx: Added early return to disable analytics
