What Changed in May and June 2013

What changed in April 2013

Monday 29 April 2013

• When a waterway is split the children inherit a lot more from the parent - both items in issue 715

Tuesday 30 April 2013

• Removed an unwanted "an extra" for shorter places in trips when discussing winding (introduced in Sunday's rework)

Saturday 4 May 2013

• Work on bridge accesses - have code to generate defaults and display them. Now need to be able to edit.

Thursday 9 May 2013

• Tweak to JavaScript to make it harder to submit the same page multiple times (which can overload the server if it's a difficult place finder or complex route calculation).

To Sunday 16 June 2013

• Speed-ups to loading of database
• Speed-up to parsing of user options
• Complete re-work of session and user management moving to using cookies rather than session IDs. The aims of this were to:
• Prevent sessions getting lost along the way
• Make sure "remember me" for user accounts actually worked
• Stopping people leaking session IDs and hence their account details when they posted links.

There will be bugs in such a big rework. I will monitor and patch as fast as I can.

→ Release 9.20

Sunday 16 June 2013

• Fixed bug where clearing routes failed [pre-release]
• Fixed "create PDF" which still used old session code.
• Fixed bug in variant routes
• Fixed a pile of bugs in adding pling places (which I'd moved into the background and never properly tested)

• Finished fixing the background of pling places.
• Fixed PDF creation
• Fixed configuration bug permanently

→ Release 9.20.0.2

• First stage of code to avoid loading marker places when not using them
• Some actions, like coordinate changes, were failing because of reorganised code
• Changed from profiling to production build which should speed general code execution
• Fixed bug with photo editing issue 743

→ Release 9.20.0.3

Monday 17 June 2013

• Fix for facebook widget on home page which had got all fat and needed putting on a diet
• Restored "Queue_Action" to database processing that requires background stuff
• Editing of history and quotes should now work
