chore(release): 2.6.23

##### [Version 2.6.23](v2.6.22...v2.6.23) (2026-07-29)

- Strengthened the automated testing that runs behind the scenes, helping catch problems earlier and making future releases more reliable
- Fixed an existing page selected as the maintenance page being left private and returning a 404 after maintenance mode was turned off, and its content being overwritten when a template was applied
- Fixed the chat bot on small screens, where the avatar was hidden and the chat box did not fit the phone display
- Fixed template imports staying stuck on Importing when the request failed — the error is now shown and the import can be retried without reloading the page
- Fixed a parse error that broke the setup wizard on PHP 7.1 and 7.2
- Updated dependencies
