Restarters.net software updates (changelog)

Late December 2020 / Early January 2021

:microscope: Introducing the Workbench

  • We’ve added a new section to the site: the Data Workbench. The Data Workbench is home to microtask activities—quests—that let anyone analyse the repair data we all record. Each quest helps us learn more about why products break and how they could be made easier to fix.

:bulb: While some experience with repair is often helpful, you don’t need to be an expert to get involved. Head to the Data Workbench to discover the latest activity!

:memo: Wiki

  • We’ve changed the navigation tabs on the repair wiki to make getting around more intuitive.

:bug: Bug fixes

  • We fixed an issue that broke some calendar feeds (thanks again for reporting this @panda :pray:)
  • We removed a bug with a sense of irony that hid certain data when searching the Fixometer
  • We removed a more humourless bug that prevented events being created if they lacked a postal address

:bulb: Suggest new features and vote for other people’s ideas in Feature requests

:bug: Report any bugs or errors you find in Bug reports
