A few small fixes and changes...
- Tests: The tab order of the Tests form has been
fixed.
- Scoreboard: If a behavior is tested but not
trained at a certain level, and the dog failed the test, the
test details will be displayed in the cell even though it is not
colored.
- Community: User pages now mention the date each
user joined the Tracker.

Chipping away at the to-do list.
- Training Sessions, Tests: The form's guess about
the level at which you are training/testing is now smarter. For
example, if your dog passes Come at Level 4, the Level dropdown for
Come will default to 5 in your next Session or Test.
- Journals: Journal pages now include your dog's
profile information and level badge, if applicable.
- Journals: Journal pages now contain a textual
RSS feed link.

New features and long-overdue bug fixes
- Training Sessions, Tests: Short notes can now be
included with each behavior tested or trained. Small note icons
will appear next to the behavior name in Summaries, and the notes
will be displayed when you hover over the name or icon.
- Journal: "On The Road" training session and test
logs are now titled as such in the journal.
- Training Sessions, Tests, Journal: Listing pages
("See All Training Sessions," etc.) are now paginated if you have more
than 15 items, and the New buttons have been moved above the
lists. The wording of page descriptions has also been improved
slightly.
- Training Sessions, Tests, Journal: A bug where
male dogs were referred to as "her" has been fixed.
- Tests: A bug which was causing the Errors
column of test summaries to appear incorrectly has been fixed.
- Account: There is now a Your Account
link next to Log Out which allows changing your account
details and password.
- Journal, Community: Changed the way that journal
URLs are generated. Non-alphanumeric characters in usernames will
now be replaced with dashes, just as they are in dog names. The old
(naïve) URL style will still work, but please do not use it
for future links.

a Hall of Fame. The Journal Directory is yet to come.
- Journal: The Permalink button no longer appears on
single-entry (a.k.a. Permalink) pages.
- Journal: An RSS feed option has been added to the
journal.
- Journal: Journals with more than 10 entries are
now paginated with "See Newer" and "See Older" buttons.

User interface improvements...
- Training Sessions, Tests: Each behavior is now
wrapped in a disclosure box to shorten the page length and make
things a bit clearer. Filled-in behaviors are summarized when hidden.
Behaviors with validation errors are
automatically expanded. There is also a set of buttons across the
top of the behavior area for mass showing/hiding operations.
- Fixed a number of table display artifacts which only appeared in
Internet Explorer due to its bizarre table rendering.

- Dog Home Page: A badge is now displayed for the
highest level you have completed.
- Training Sessions, Tests, Scoreboard: A
couple of On The Road-related bugs have been fixed.
- A typo in the Level 2 Stand Stay description has been fixed.

"On The Road" is more than just a behavior...
- The "On The Road" behavior has been deleted, along with all
training session and test data which referenced it. I'm sorry about
the extra work this will cause for those of you who have diligently
input lots of data! This should be the last of the
destructive changes.
- Training Sessions, Tests: You can now create
On The Road sessions and tests to record progress towards the
OTR goals. On The Road sessions and tests display information
specific to the OTR behaviors.
- Scoreboard: "Tabs" have been added, and clicking
on the OTR Tab will display your OTR training and testing data.
- Reference: On The Road info is included on
the Level reference pages.
- Training Sessions, Tests: Increased maximum length
of Notes from 600 to 5,000 characters. Please note that journal
entries can be even longer (30,000 characters).
- Some changes to hopefully make things look a little better in
Internet Explorer 6.

Enhanced formatting for notes and journal entries.
- Training Sessions, Tests, Journal: You can now
use Textile markup
in your journal entries and notes. The simple upshot of this is that
by hitting the Enter key twice, you can start a new paragraph. By
placing *asterisks* around a word or phrase, you can make it
bold. Using _underscores_, you can make it
italicized. To find out about doing more advanced things,
click the link!
Eventually, I'd like to include a quick reference like that on
this site.
- Journal: A cosmetic bug where the wrong
"Save" button could appear in the entry editor under some
circumstances has been fixed.

Major addition to the Tests model.
- Tests: There is now a "Passed" checkbox for each
behavior on a Test. This is meant to be checked off when you believe
your dog is ready to move to the next level of that behavior.
All existing tested behaviors have been
marked "Passed." Unfortunately, if you entered data for tests in which
some behaviors were not meant to be Passed, you'll need to
go back and uncheck those boxes manually.
- Tests: Passing
information is now displayed in the test summary and test lists.
- Tests: It is now possible (but not necessarily
encouraged) to check the "Passed" checkbox but not fill in any
repetition data for a behavior. Previously, filling in at least
Total Reps was required.
- Scoreboard: Passing information is displayed in
the floating mouse-over box. Tested behaviors which are not
"Passed" will not display as a green cell.

Minor style changes and additions.
- A privacy policy has been added (above).
- In the Scoreboard, the gray (not applicable) and gray barber-pole
(optional) cell backgrounds are now darker.
- In the Scoreboard, behavior descriptions now appear in the floating
mouse-over box.
|
| April 10, 2006 |
Added a few minor features, along with small wording changes in
various places around Your Dogs.
- Behavior quick reference on Training Sessions and Tests now
displays "without training aids" when applicable.
- There is now a checkbox on the Dog Profile form to allow you to
exclude the dog from the (planned) Hall of Fame and other public
areas.
- Level numbers and behavior names in the Reference are now clickable.
For example, clicking Target in the Level 3 Reference takes
you to the page with all of Target's levels.
