Version History changes

Post by bigyihsuan »

Currently, anything that got changed/introduced/removed in an update merely has a bold number in a section called "Version Updates" with no links to the relevant section.

Similarly, the version list box on the Version History pages does not link to the version header. So if I click 0.13.5, it takes me to the page for 0.13.0 but doesn't go to the relevant header.

I sorry but I don't quite get what you mean. Do you mean the History section on the pages of items/entites? If yes, I'll have a look into changing the template that is used for that to include the links to the specifc versions.

The box links to the version header, but for some reason you don't end up there if you hid the table of contents on the page. This is an issue with the wiki software that we are using. It should be possible to fix this by making it so there is no table of contents on the page, but that would make navigation harder. I'll speak with the other active admin and see if we can find a better solution.

Hey there. I have resolved the issue with the Navbox, it was due to the huge table of contents offsetting the browser when you end up on the page. The links in the Navbox should now correctly move the browser to the relevant part.

We are currently looking into making the history template link to the relevant pages.

Thanks for the report, and happy reading!

Seems to be fixed, save for the x.xx.0 releases, which still lead to the version page rather than the version header.
