Quick update to wpSwimTeam v1.12.662

Mike Walsh — Mon, 27 Jun 2011 16:03:54 +0000

There was a typo in one of commits I made over the weekend which resulted in the Opt-In/Opt-Out CC address not working correctly. This release fixes that problem (which was affecting the MacDolphins). The release is available from the Download page and has also been committed to the Plugin repository. It should appear via the Auto-Updater in the next hour or two.

Update: I had the version number wrong in the post title – the correct version is 1.12.662.

wp-SwimTeam v1.11.659 now available

Mike Walsh — Sat, 25 Jun 2011 13:30:37 +0000

About a week ago one of the volunteers inadvertently registered (Opt-In) our entire rosters for a swim meet. An Opt-In will supercede any existing Opt-In or Opt-Out information so we lost our entire scratch list for our meet this past Tuesday. I was out running errands getting my son ready to go on a mission trip when I started seeing numerous registration e-mails coming across my phone. Yikes – what happened? Initially I thought someone had gotten administrative access to our database and was playing games.

As it turns out the mistake our volunteer made was an honest one and I tracked it down by examining the Opt-In/Opt-Out records in the database. I have always logged the user ID for the user who submitted an Opt-In/Opt-Out request but never displayed it as I never had a need. It would have been really useful last weekend – imagine digging through your database using phpMyAdmin on an iPhone which is how I found it because I wasn’t anywhere near a computer at the time.

As a result of this exercise I have enhanced the Swim Meet Report on the Report menu to optionally show the user detail for the user who submitted the request. I also changed the Time Stamp so it can be shown if desired. Both of these options are on by default.

This release also addresses a bug where Opt-In/Opt-Out email confirmations were being sent to the Registration e-mail address. For a lot of teams this is probably same address but for the MacDolphins it is not. The result was our Accountant was being flooded with Opt-In/Opt-Out email confirmations and has been for the past three years! She never mentioned it to me until recently. Oops!

The release is now available from the Download page but has not been committed to the WordPress Plugin Repository yet because WordPress changed all of their passwords last week. While I can login to WordPress.com without any problems, I cannot get access to the plugin repository. Hopefully I will get this sorted out soon and then it should appear as an automatic update from the WordPress plugin repository shortly.

Update: I finally got my WordPress.org password issue straightened out and have committed the latest set of changes. The automatic update process should proceed within a couple hours.

wp-SwimTeam v1.10.651 now available

Mike Walsh — Mon, 20 Jun 2011 13:34:42 +0000

I have tracked down the problem that was causing the opt-in/opt-out list to be displayed incorrectly when called from the wpst_meet_report short code. I have fixed the problem and made a new release available. The release is now available from the Download page and has been committed to the WordPress Plugin Repository. It should appear as an automatic update from the WordPress automatic update process in the next couple of hours.

Definite bug in Swim Meet Report short code

Mike Walsh — Mon, 20 Jun 2011 12:07:46 +0000

There is definitely an issue with the Swim Meet Report, particularly the opt-in/opt-out list, produced by the wpst_meet_report short code. It produces different results depending on whether or not a user is logged in to the web site and what WordPress capabilities the user has. I hope to have a solution this morning as it is causing a fair amount of confusion with my own team!

Possible Bug in Meet Report Short Code

Mike Walsh — Fri, 17 Jun 2011 16:32:33 +0000

I noticed an inconsistency on our meet opt-in/opt-out page (which is based on the short code) earlier this week and it was also seen by another team. I suspect there is a bug that I need to track down. In my case the report generated from the short code didn’t include all of the swimmers that the meet report generated from the Options->Reports->Swim Meets tab on the Dashboard included. In looking at it, the Dashboard report was correct, the short code report was not. I plan to chase this down in the next day or so.

wp-SwimTeam v1.7.608 now available

Mike Walsh — Tue, 24 May 2011 16:46:22 +0000

A quick turnaround on the bug reported a short time ago. It has been fixed and I have posted v1.7.608 of wp-SwimTeam. This fixes the bug which essentially made the Manage->Users tab almost unusable unless you had a very small number of users.

This release has also been pushed to the WordPress plugin repository so it should be available via the plugin updater fairly soon.

New Bug on Manage->Users Tab

Mike Walsh — Tue, 24 May 2011 16:18:44 +0000

In the latest 1.6.x released I changed the actions on the Manage->Users tab from a row of buttons to a drop down list. In the process I have introduced a bug because none of the controls on the user list (expand, search, page forward, page back, etc.) work. I am working on the issue and hope to have an update out shortly.

wp-SwimTeam v1.6.605 released

Mike Walsh — Mon, 23 May 2011 22:53:46 +0000

It took longer than I wanted and I didn’t get all of the features I wanted done, but I have release v1.6.605 of wp-SwimTeam tonight. This release addresses a number of things my own team has been asking for, in particular with respect to jobs. A number of our parents have asked how they can see which jobs they have signed up for and if they have scratched their swimmers or not. A key new feature in this release is the Swim Meets report is now exposed to all users but the information presented to users is limited to their swimmers and their jobs.

Fixed bug when optional user and/or swimmer field count is zero preventing reports from running.
Added My Jobs tab for all users. User can now easily see which jobs they’ve signed up for.
Added e-mail field to user profile. Users are familiar with the swim team profile, easy to update.
Exposed Swim Meet report to all users allowing users to see their swimmer opt-in/out and jobs easily.
Added Dashboard widget.
Fixed quite a few minor bugs – too many to list!

This release is available now on the Download page and will be available from the WordPress plugin updater later tonight

Potential Report Bug

Mike Walsh — Fri, 20 May 2011 19:52:31 +0000

There is a bug with the User and Swimmer reports which will manifest itself when either the User or Swimmer optional field count is set to zero AND the table where the optional fields are stored is completely empty. I have fixed the bug and checked it but am not quite ready to do a release due to some other changes I am in the process of making not being finished yet. The bug will also manifest itself when trying to export a list of users or swimmers as CSV.

If you run into this problem, let me know – there is a fairly easy work-around that will prevent it from happening.

wp-SwimTeam v1.5.579 released

Mike Walsh — Sun, 17 Apr 2011 06:48:48 +0000

I have just released wp-SwimTeam v.1.5.579, you can find it on the download page and shortly, via the automatic plugin updater. This release fixes an issue which has bothered me personally for a long time.

There was a problem in the E-mail Confirmation code for both registrations and opt-in/opt-out. This same code was used for the new Jobs module so it existed there too. For a long time the confirmation e-mails were duplicated and if a swimmer had to two contacts, only one of them would receive the e-mail. I have finally found and fixed this problem so e-mail confirmation should be cleaner and sent to the appropriate people.
