    Latest development and bug fixes for TSR - Build 1.35
    Build 1.35 went live last night and there do not seem to have been any associated problems.

    Here's the work which the build contained:

    • Latex (which allows you to write formulae in posts and articles) was adjusted to prevent wider problems in situations where it runs in to difficulty creating a formula.
    • We made adjustments to allow us to link together two adverts set to appear on different parts of a page so they always show together on the same pages (this actually was done a few days ago, but the code changes are associated with the others in this build).
    • We have made some database adjustments to help us better record stats associated with post reports and where threads and posts are actually made (rather than just knowing the forums they are currently sat in).
    • We have archived another block of 'spam' accounts so they are no longer on TSR. The accounts were mostly made between April and July 2011.
    • The registration process and 'edit profile' page have been fixed so that people choosing the 'education professional' option for their education status can now do so.

    :yy: Updated the sticky.

    I don't suppose you've had the chance to look into filling in the gaps there yet? :puppyeyes:

    Would it be possible for you to make each further update in a new post?

    Just updating a post doesn't pop it up in my watched threads.

    I'll think of a way to do it next time

    Cheers (and apologies - am I the only one watching that thread (if you can reveal such things)? If so I wouldn't be (too) offended if it just continued with the editing updating. Works great as a digest anyway)

    Well, I'm subscribed to it as well (automatically), if that counts We can't get a list of who's subscribed, actually.
