The 1.8.0 entry started straight into a bullet, so it has a short intro now. Also added how to actually set SESSION_SECRET (with links), since the upgrade notes just said to set it. Fixed "document pages" too, it reads like PDFs/Word only but it's every file. Release notes on GitHub are already updated to match.
The 1.8.0 changelog adds an upgrade note for SESSION_SECRET and updates descriptions of account features and the Metadata card. The upgrade guide adds a command to generate SESSION_SECRET, instructions to add it to .env, and a restart step.
Merge Risk: Low · up to 86d08
The upgrade instructions may leave the configured secret unapplied or cause an unexpected second sign-out. Clarifying them would reduce operator confusion.

Explanation
The title names the two changes in the PR: an intro paragraph added to the 1.8.0 changelog entry and a how-to for setting SESSION_SECRET. It is specific and concise, though it uses a shorthand ("intro") and a plus sign, and it does not mention the wording fix to "document pages".

Full details: Description check
Explanation
The description states why the change was made: the 1.8.0 entry needed an intro, and the upgrade notes said to set SESSION_SECRET without showing how. It also explains the 'document pages' wording fix and notes the GitHub release notes were updated. It does not follow the repository template. It has no 'How I tested it' section, and the 'Before merging' checklist is missing. It also does not state the upgrade impact or the new env var, though the upgrade notes cover that. It does not link the issue, and the template marks that as optional.
Resolution
Add a 'How I tested it' section. Briefly say how the docs were checked, for example by reading the rendered Markdown or following the SESSION_SECRET steps. Add the 'Before merging' checklist from the template and mark each item. Note the upgrade impact: SESSION_SECRET is a new env var for 1.8.0 upgrades. Link the related issue if one exists.

Nothing to set up. Pull the new image and restart as usual.
Startup runs a migration that adds user roles, API tokens and the audit log. The account you set up becomes an admin, and it's the only account there is until you add more from **Settings > Users**. Sessions you already have keep working until they expire. The exception is installs that never set `SESSION_SECRET`: they get signed out once, because the key they used before was a built-in one that is now replaced. Setting `SESSION_SECRET` avoids that on future upgrades.

The exception is installs that never set `SESSION_SECRET`: they get signed out once, because the key they used before was a built-in one that is now replaced. Setting `SESSION_SECRET` avoids that on future upgrades: generate a key with `openssl rand -base64 32`, add `SESSION_SECRET=<that key>` to your `.env`, and restart.

Recreate the container after changing .env.
If an operator uses docker compose restart, the container keeps its old environment, so SESSION_SECRET remains unset. Specify docker compose up -d instead, using the applicable Compose file. (docs.docker.com)

Warn that setting a new secret ends current sessions.
If users sign in after the upgrade and then follow this instruction, the new key replaces the generated key and signs them out again. Recommend setting the secret before upgrading, or warn about the second sign-out. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
