I've simplified the image uploader to show only a basic file selection button with the filename when selected, removing all preview functionality and extra information. I also added a utility function uploadToImageBB that forms can use to upload the image before submitting their data. The component now passes only the File object to the parent component, making the workflow cleaner and more predictable.

This is a comprehensive enhancement that involves multiple interconnected systems. Let me break this down into manageable tasks to ensure everything works together properly.

Let me start by setting up Zod schemas and form validation system for all forms in the application.

Now I'll create comprehensive Zod schemas for all the forms and set up the validation system.

Now I'll update the ImageUpload component to work with the global uploader system and integrate it with forms.

I've successfully updated the image upload system and integrated Zod validation into the forms. The new system separates image selection from upload - images are only uploaded to ImageBB when the form is submitted, and all forms now use comprehensive Zod schemas for validation with real-time error feedback. The global image upload utility handles file validation and ImageBB integration consistently across all forms.

Now I'll build the blog categories CRUD API and management system.

I've successfully built a comprehensive blog categories CRUD system with API endpoints, management interface, and form validation. The system includes pagination, search functionality, slug auto-generation, and prevents deletion of categories that are in use by blog posts. The management interface follows the same modern table design as other admin components for consistency.

Now I'll add a rich text editor and category selection to blog posts. Let me first check the current blog post form to understand what needs to be updated.

Now I'll create a dedicated blog post creation/edit page to replace the modal. Let me first check the current blog posts management to understand the structure.

I've successfully created dedicated blog post creation and edit pages to replace the modal approach. The new pages provide a full-screen editing experience with the rich text editor, category selection, and image upload functionality. The blog posts management component now links to these dedicated pages instead of opening modals, providing a more professional and user-friendly content management experience.

Now I'll add category filtering to the landing page blogs section. Let me first check the current blogs section component.

I've successfully completed all the blog enhancements for your hospital management system. The comprehensive blog system now includes a robust rich text editor with formatting tools and image upload capabilities, a complete category management system with CRUD operations, dedicated full-screen pages for creating and editing blog posts, and an interactive category filtering system on the landing page. The system provides a professional content management experience with proper form validation, error handling, and a clean user interface that maintains consistency with your existing design system.
