Well, 2021 has certainly been a year, hasn’t it. Apologies for the delay | ||
between releases, but we are now releasing **version 4.0**, with a number of | ||
new features, outlined below. For those who don't want to update immediately, | ||
we are also releasing **version 3.1.1** as an update to 3.1 including a number | ||
of bugfixes and the update necessary to deal with issues caused by the rollover | ||
of the Let’s Encrypt root certificate. | ||
|
||
### Multi-page reporting form | ||
|
||
The main change in this release is the move to a multi-page reporting form, | ||
where you pick the category first, then the subcategory if relevant, any extra | ||
questions for that category, photos, problem details, and then user details | ||
last. Research shows people find a form easier to fill in this way, and it | ||
makes it clearer what is expected at each step of the process. We have also | ||
switched from a category drop-down to radio buttons, as this is easier to use, | ||
especially on mobile. | ||
|
||

|
||
### Photo redaction | ||
|
||
We have added photo redaction support, letting you moderate parts of a photo | ||
that should not be public without removing the whole photo, and photos can also | ||
be moderated individually. | ||
|
||

|
||
### Development Docker environment | ||
|
||
We now include a development Docker environment, which should hopefully make it | ||
easier for people to spin up a local copy of the code for development. If you | ||
have Docker and Docker Compose installed, a fresh clone and then | ||
`docker/compose-dev up` should set everything up for you. | ||
|
||
### Other improvements | ||
|
||
You can now specify a radius when signing up for an email alert, the mobile | ||
site has an improved navigation menu, users can set global notification | ||
preferences, and the search box supports Maidenhead Locator references. | ||
|
||
A few admin pages have had their layout improved, and you can now customise | ||
hints on a per-category basis. The CSV export includes device type, staff | ||
can find non-public reports when using the front page ID search, and user login | ||
attempts can be throttled per user. | ||
|
||
The alert script has been split up, so you can e.g. choose to send local alerts | ||
at a different frequency to update alerts. | ||
|
||
### Bugfixes | ||
|
||
As always, we have fixed a number of issues that have arisen – for example, if | ||
a category has more than 10 extra questions, they should now be sorted in the | ||
correct order, there was a bug in update text moderation, and categories with | ||
slashes in no longer break the CSV export. | ||
|
||
