What Changed in October 2023
What changed from March to September 2023
Monday 2 October 2023
Pre-release patch to "numbered lock flight" rotation to restore Bingley 5 Rise. The thing I needed to do was change the icon when the angle was between 90° and 270°, not 180° and 360°
Tuesday 10 October 2023
- Fix for double escaping of HTML entities on index page quotes
- Extended displayname lookup to new database (surface fix for issue 1175)
- Added prefixed new user IDs to revision tables, and new mode to turn to users (deep fix for issue 1175).
→ Release 9.41.3.1
- Fixed the warning about reloading pages when you log in or out of some pages (an old bug but picked up in issue 1161).
Wednesday 11 October 2023
- Proper creation of new photo records when new user adds a photo
- Some auto-reported problems with load/save fixed
→ Release 9.41.3.2
Thursday 12 October 2023
- Default mode for export is now properly set (all I could find when working on issue 1141)
- Restored some missing photos for features (such as Froghall Tunnel)
- Added a way to see other photos of a place as requested in issue 1125
→ Release 9.41.4
Friday 13 October 2023
- Minor change to login to prevent forum and bug track users being created until accounts are activated
Saturday 14 October 2023
- Improvements to waterway editing prompted by issue 1179
- fixed the return URL to show the waterway page
- fixed a typo that prevented the default options being regenerated (and so caused errors when a new waterway was excluded)
- changed the way the reasons for exclusion are presented using some spiffy stuff in HTML5 (thanks W3C)
- ensured that the reason for exclusion is shown in edit.
- Replaced nice "replaceAll" with messy regexp because of crappy browsers
→ Release 9.41.4.1
Sunday 15 October 2023
- Added a parameter-driven check for problems with email providers when creating accounts
Wednesday 18 October 2023
- Fixed the storage of user IDs when places are added
- Fixed the display of users in place history
- Manually patched the database for errors from the first
These collectively fix issue 1183
- Made the message check at build more parameter driven; supports the email providers check
→ Release 9.41.5
To Saturday 21 October 2023
- Lots of work on link-previews. They need some extra tagging of the data on pages, so am putting this live to allow the pages to be regenerated, while still fine-tuning the actual pop-ups (which I've therefore turned off for the moment)
Sunday 22 October 2023
- And now turned it on. Not worth a new version number.
→ Release 9.41.6
Monday 23 October 2023
- Tweak to stylesheet to prevent little blob on pages before you hover
→ Release 9.41.6.1
Friday 27 October 2023
- Added more preview links to the home page (information dynamically added there, so wasn't happening automatically)
- Slight improvement to catching errors in promises
- Added a warning message for whoever it is who uses Chrome 54 pointing out that things won't work properly.
→ Release 9.41.7
- Turned on previews for "nearest place on the waterways" on index page as well
- Fixed location resolution code for 'p:'
→ Release 9.41.7.1
