## Overview Stacks on #1083. Drops the extra ContentRenderer path and duplicate settings template; `header.html` owns the static placeholder, `header_logo.html` stays settings markup as on `main`. ## Related - requires #1083 - footer Structure label: #1188 (merged to `main`) - static-placeholder perm: #1187 (merged to `main`) ## Changes - **deleted** `render.py`, `constants.py`, `header_tags`, and `header_logo_via_settings.html` - **updated** `header.html`: `{% static_placeholder "header-logo" or %}` → `header_logo.html` - **updated** `CMS_PLACEHOLDER_CONF` for `header-logo` (keeps `footer-content` with #1188) - **updated** `docs/gh-999-editable-header-plan.md` (minimal deltas) ## Testing Same as #1083 steps 1–4 after this branch is merged into `feat/GH-999-let-cms-admin-edit-header`. ## UI No new UI; structure only.

Overview
Content editor groups should not be able to change sitewide static placeholders (footer, future header slots). This removes that permission when group setup runs, so existing sites drop it on the next deploy that runs the helper.

No UI change.
Notes
Includes a TODO to delete the revoke block after all sites have deployed once. Open question in code: whether “Sitewide Content Manager” should retain this permission.
