Looks like some new fixes just got implemented. Will we get a list of them, Angelko?

New fixes? It looks like pressing the “Next” button defaults to “most popular” rather than what the user selected in their first search. Try setting the search to “most recent” then “go” then note that the selector goes back to “most popular” and when you hit “next” you get a page of popular pans. The filter selector logic is getting messed up.

Dave

David you’re right on money. This particular issue has just been fixed and is queued up for deployment. We have just today deployed a large number of fixes and improvements. I will be following up with a full list of release notes.

David, I’m glad you brought that up. I was just about to post the exact same thing.

Great to see the new fixes to the website today – I’m particularly pleased to see that Most Popular Galleries now does what it should. :-)

Please update us with a full list of fixes, Angelko. I don’t think you ever got around to it after the last round of updates. :-(

[Update: Okay, my favorite update is officially the addition of “Geology” to the categories list. :-) Of course, it also means I’m going to end up spending many hours editing the categories of my 900+ GigaPans and 80+ Galleries. :-( Hmmm, maybe I can put Berti and Edi on that task…]

Keep dreamin’ big guy! We’ve got better things to do than edit your metadata.

Rofl. Ron, I’m working on the list, will be posting it soon.
