feat: Phase 2 TEC Community Events replacement with native HVAC forms

Replace TEC Community Events templates with native HVAC Event Form Builder:

✅ Template Replacements:
- page-tec-create-event.php: Now uses HVAC_Event_Form_Builder with template integration
- page-manage-event.php: Redirects to integrated event management system
- Both templates preserve trainer authentication and role-based access

✅ Native HVAC Implementation:
- Enabled hvac_create_event shortcode with comprehensive form builder
- Integrated template system with category support (general,training,workshop,certification)
- Added Phase 2 success indicators and enhanced UI styling
- Auto-save functionality and template selector AJAX integration

✅ Authentication & Security:
- Proper trainer login redirect (/training-login/) for role-specific access
- Role validation for hvac_trainer/hvac_master_trainer
- WordPress nonce security and input sanitization maintained

✅ Backward Compatibility:
- Legacy URL redirects preserved through existing route manager
- TEC Core integration maintained for event display and calendar functions
- Template system ready for bulk operations and advanced features

🔄 Ready for Phase 2B: Template system UI enhancements and Save-as-Template functionality

+# Phase 2: TEC Community Events Integration Analysis
+## Comprehensive Page Audit & Refactoring Strategy
+
+**Date**: September 25, 2025
+**Status**: Phase 1 Complete - Moving to Phase 2 Frontend Refactoring
+**Current Branch**: feature/native-event-system
+**Implementation Plan**: TEC-COMMUNITY-EVENTS-REPLACEMENT-PLAN.md
+
+---
+
+## Executive Summary
+
+Based on comprehensive analysis of the codebase, **Phase 1 foundation integration is complete** with the HVAC Event Form Builder successfully integrated and operational. This analysis documents the current state of TEC Community Events usage and provides a strategic refactoring plan for Phase 2 implementation.
+
+**Key Finding**: The system already has substantial native HVAC event management capabilities that can replace TEC Community Events forms while preserving TEC Core integration.
+
+---
+
+## Current TEC Community Events Usage Analysis
+
+### Primary TEC Integration Points Identified
+
+#### 1. **Event Creation & Management Templates**
+- **`page-tec-create-event.php`**: Uses iframe to embed TEC Community Events form (`/events/network/add/`)
+- **`page-manage-event.php`**: Uses `[tribe_community_events]` shortcode
+- **`page-manage-event-integrated.php`**: HVAC native implementation with TEC Core integration
+- **`community-edit-event-prototype.php`**: Custom template override with excerpt field
+
+#### 2. **Event Listing & Display**
+- **`page-tec-my-events.php`**: Native HVAC implementation using `tribe_events` queries
+- **All event display uses TEC Core**: No Community Events dependency for display
+
+#### 3. **URL Structure & Routing**
+```
+Current TEC Community Events URLs:
+/events/network/add/          → TEC Community Events create form
+/events/community/edit/{id}/  → TEC Community Events edit form
+
+Target HVAC Native URLs:
+/trainer/events/create/       → HVAC native create form ✅ Ready
+/trainer/events/edit/{id}/    → HVAC native edit form ✅ Ready
+/trainer/events/my-events/    → HVAC native event list ✅ Working
+```
+
+---
+

+
+---
+
+## User Workflows Analysis
+
+### Current User Journey
+
+#### Trainer Event Creation Workflow
+1. **Login**: `/training-login/` → Trainer dashboard
+2. **Navigation**: `/trainer/dashboard/` → Event management
+3. **Creation Options**:
+   - **Option A (TEC)**: `/trainer/events/create/` → iframe TEC form
+   - **Option B (HVAC)**: `/trainer/event/manage/` → Native HVAC form ✅
+4. **Management**: `/trainer/events/my-events/` → Native list ✅
+5. **Editing**: `/trainer/events/edit/{id}/` → HVAC form ✅
+
+#### Master Trainer Administrative Workflow
+1. **Bulk Operations**: Template system with background processing ✅
+2. **Event Approval**: Native HVAC workflow ✅
+3. **Analytics**: Performance dashboards ✅
+
+---
+
+## URL Structure & Backward Compatibility
+
+### Legacy Redirect Mappings (Already Implemented ✅)
+**Source**: `includes/class-hvac-route-manager.php`
+
+```php
+$legacy_redirects = [
+    'manage-event' => 'trainer/event/manage',           // ✅ Working
+    'hvac-dashboard' => 'trainer/dashboard',            // ✅ Working
+    'community-login' => 'training-login',              // ✅ Working
+    'find-trainer' => 'find-a-trainer',                 // ✅ Working
+];
+
+$parent_redirects = [
+    'trainer' => 'trainer/dashboard',                   // ✅ Working
+    'master-trainer' => 'master-trainer/master-dashboard', // ✅ Working
+];
+```
+
+### TEC Community Events Replacement Strategy
+
+#### URLs to Replace (Phase 2 Target):
+```
+OLD: /events/network/add/
+NEW: /trainer/events/create/ ✅ (HVAC native form ready)
+
+OLD: /events/community/edit/{id}/
+NEW: /trainer/events/edit/{id}/ ✅ (HVAC native form ready)
+
+OLD: iframe TEC embed in page-tec-create-event.php
+NEW: Direct HVAC form in page-hvac-form.php ✅ (Template ready)
+```
+
+---
+
+## Page-by-Page Refactoring Plan
+
+### Priority 1: HIGH IMPACT (Week 2, Days 1-2)
+
+#### 1. **Replace page-tec-create-event.php**
+**Current**: iframe TEC Community Events form
+**Target**: Direct HVAC_Event_Form_Builder implementation
+**Template**: `page-hvac-form.php` (ready)
+**Effort**: 2 hours - Remove iframe, implement native form
+
+#### 2. **Replace page-manage-event.php**
+**Current**: `[tribe_community_events]` shortcode
+**Target**: Use existing `page-manage-event-integrated.php`
+**Effort**: 1 hour - Redirect traffic to integrated version
+
+### Priority 2: MEDIUM IMPACT (Week 2, Days 3-4)
+
+#### 3. **Enhance page-manage-event-integrated.php**
+**Current**: Basic HVAC implementation
+**Target**: Full template system integration
+**Features to Add**:
+- Template selector dropdown
+- "Save as Template" functionality
+- Progressive disclosure for advanced options
+- Auto-save functionality
+
+#### 4. **Update page-tec-my-events.php**
+**Current**: Already native HVAC (✅ no changes needed)
+**Action**: Validate functionality, add template integration
+
+### Priority 3: LOW IMPACT (Week 2, Day 5)
+
+#### 5. **Remove community-edit-event-prototype.php**
+**Current**: Template override with excerpt field
+**Action**: Merge excerpt functionality into native HVAC forms
+
+#### 6. **URL Cleanup & SEO Preservation**
+**Action**: Ensure all old TEC Community Events URLs redirect properly
+
