November: Latest RaceCafe Upgrade

Hi All

Another major upgrade to the core RaceCafe software was completed on Saturday.  This latest upgrade fixes a number of bugs that many of you have referred to.  It also introduces some new features which will be of interest and use to many of you.  For example check out the Activity tab on the menu at the top of the page.  This is useful if you want to see quickly activity that has occurred since the last time you visited RaceCafe.  There are other new features that you may find - we will slowly inform members over time however they are there and live if you want to go looking.

You will also notice some significant speed improvements.  It is now easier to cut and paste information from a variety of sources and the editor is much simpler and more efficient.

There are also options to customise your own RaceCafe interface - this is a double edged sword for Admin as no doubt some users will fill their boots and many "non-standard" user experiences will be created.

There are also in-browser notifications now - you will get a pop-up box asking if you want to allow notifications and if you do allow you will get pop-up messages telling when those threads and/or posters that you are following have had changes like new posts or replies.

The logging in issues seem to be fixed - if some of you are still experiencing issues then the first step is to clear your browser cache and then click on http://www.racecafe.co.nz

Now that we have a solid up to date core platform we can begin to release some more features over the next few months.  Does anyone want to run their own blog on a specialist topic?

Cheers

The RaceCafe Team
