Release Notes

Features

Featured Content

The featured content system was pretty broken which meant it wasn't possible to add new climbs or climbers. We've added a new tool for selecting lead media (i.e. the piece of media that appears on the front page alongside the article) and cleaned up a lot fo the background logic to make the functionality much more usable.

Fixes

Metadata

Following feedback from contributors that meta data table was too prominent I've shrunk the table a bit.

Features

FAQs

Added a new FAQs section where we can answer common questions.

Maps

Added buttons to link out to some more external map services (OSM, Apple and Bing).

Fixes

Search

The / keyboard shortcut for focusing the search box now no longer overwrites the contents of the search if there was text already there.

Climbers, Crags

Tabs for separating climb types now scroll horizontally rather than overflowing on mobile.
