Virto Commerce limits forced password changes to password sign-ins after its admin UI split.

ecommerce platformmodular architectureauthenticationadmin uibackports
◆Current state
Virto Commerce 3.1092.0 moved the AngularJS admin UI out of the core into its own module, so a platform without an admin module now runs API only. It followed sign-in method management and passkey groundwork in 3.1091.0. On November 2, 3.1093.0 and the 3.1076.12 backport force a password change only for users who signed in with a password.
◆Where it's heading
Main is reworking authentication and modular architecture, with the 3.1076 support branch getting the same fixes within days. Expect the sign-in work to keep producing small corrections as external sign-in and passkeys spread.
◆Prediction
Passkey sign-in is the likely next visible step after the groundwork in 3.1091.0; timing is unclear from the notes.

    3.1092.0 moves the AngularJS admin UI into a separate module

    ⚡ SPARK

    After the sign-in releases on main, 3.1092.0 turns to architecture and takes the admin UI out of the core. It also changes what an install needs, since the platform now requires an admin module to show a back office at all.
