We're now at revision 1329! This was meant to be a small drop but looking back it isn't anything of the sort. There was a lot of coding over the last month including Amelia's first two patches *celebrates*.

On a different note, we're looking to communicate more and will be posting answers to some frequently asked questions about the archive on the OTW-blog and associated mirrors. There are also slightly less official and more regular updates by Samvara and Elz if you're interested.

Highlights
  • Performance! We have been optimising and filters should load faster now.
  • Changed redirects on tag - tag now takes you to search results (used to take you to tag meta-data page)
  • Fixed html sanitising on Summary field and in Comments (FYI, they allow a href, b, big, blockquote, br, center, cite, code, del, em, i, img, ins, p, pre, q, small, strike, strong, sub, sup and u - we will add help text to this effect)
Known Issues
  • We're still having problems with OpenID - we're working on it!
  • Rich text editor - upgraded but we're having problems with tables (seems to be reluctant to paste in tables from word documents without inserting extra lines breaks) - we are investigating)
  • Filters - pagination when filtering on more than one fandom returns wrong total - we are investigating
Next Projects
  • Co-located servers
  • Browse redesign
  • Tag Wrangling 4.0
  • Archive Admin posting (Release notes, FAQ, updates, bugs)
