Restarters.net software updates (changelog)

:left_speech_bubble: Introducing group conversations

Earlier this year, we added the ability to send messages to everyone who has RSVP’d to an event. We’ve now expanded this to allow group organisers to communicate more easily with everyone in your group.

  • If you’re a group host, you can send everyone in your group a private message from your inbox right here on Talk. Simply create a new private message and in the ‘to’ field, start typing the name of your group - press it when it pops up.
  • These messages work like ‘reply-all’ email and be sent to all everyone who follows the group. Anyone in the group can reply and everyone can see each response.
  • Note that by default, everyone included in a message will receive an email notification every time someone posts in the conversation. If you’d like to change your personal settings, you can do this in your email preferences.

You can learn more how this works here:

:clock1: Site updates

  • We’ve updated two important bits of software that power most of Restarters.

:bug: Bug fixes

  • The login door to the wiki wasn’t opening for some people. We’ve changed the locks so everyone should now have access again. (Thanks for reporting this @Dave and @Adam :pray:)
  • It’s now easier to edit the end time of events on Chrome (thanks for reporting this @Jonathan_Vigne :pray:)
  • We fixed an issue affecting which events were displayed in the ‘upcoming events’ or ‘your events’ sections

As always, a huge thanks to @Edward_Hibbert and @neil, the dev engines behind the scenes! :clap:
