Release Notes - College Football Survivor

Version 1.1.4-beta

Release Date: November 18, 2024

Fixed an issue where if the user made a pick for the current week, the dashboard was displaying the previous week's result when it should show a 'Pending' game. No integrity of the picks were affected, just the display on the user dashboard.

Release Date: November 7, 2024

Added a "Modify Picks" button to the user dashboard page so that the user can change their picks if they desire without having to manually navigate to the Picks page.
Styled the buttons to be full-width on mobile.
The "Picks" page now includes a link to return to the dashboard.
Added a "Return to Dashboard" button on the Picks page in case the user doesn't make any picks changes.
Added a "Go to My Dashboard" button on this (Release Notes) page.
Added the footer with version info and a link to report issues to the Picks page.

Fixed an issue where if a user had not made picks for the current week, they would see their previous picks along with current week opponent under the "Your Picks for Week X" section of the dashboard. Now if a user has not made picks for the current week, they should be prompted to make picks for the current week.

Release Date: October 2, 2024

Registration now requires an invite code. This was implemented to prevent strangers/spammers from joining he league and enhance security. Invite codes will come directly from the administrator currently.

Fixed an issue where a user pick on the dashboard would display also as that user's opponent, e.g. "Miami vs Miami". Now the display is correct as "Away @ Home" for each game.

Release Date: September 19, 2024

On the picks page, users will now see which week they picked a team. Instead of (Already Picked) next to teams users have picked, users will now see (Picked - WX) where X is the week they picked the team.
The dashboard pick tiles will now show the conference next to the pick's name, for example Michigan (Big Ten).

Release Date: September 12, 2024

Updated user dashboard so picks are shows as tiles. "Live" game data is being pulled in and game tiles are updated accordingly. As of now, we are rate-limited in our calls, so game data will update every 15 minutes or so. The data refresh date is displayed as a footnote beneath the user's picks.
Eliminated custom CSS to ensure consistent design and better mobile optimization.
When users are making their picks, the opponent is displayed in parentheses to clarify that the user is selecting the first team in the dropdown, e.g., Michigan (vs Michigan State) instead of simply Michigan vs Michigan State.
Removed the redundant "Select a team from {Conference}:" text to just display the conference name to improve readability when making picks.

Fixed an error in which 'Pending' instead of a 'Loss' was displayed even after a loss had occurred.
Fixed an error in which if a user was eliminated from a conference, they were still able to select teams from that conference when selecting picks for future weeks.
Fixed an error in the API call which was only fetching future game data instead of checking for games that have happened but hadn't been updated yet.
Fixed an issue that was causing users to display as eliminated from conferences they were still alive in.
Fixed an issue where the user's picks were stuck on their week 1 picks on the dashboard page.
Users are no longer able to select teams on a Bye for a given week on mobile.
Fixed an issue where users were sometimes erroneously marked as eliminated from a conference even though their pick won.

Password reset request isn't working but we believe this is due to DNS propagation. It appears the smtp server is affected. We expect this to resolve itself, but will continue to monitor.

Release Date: September 4, 2024

When making picks, users will now see the opponent in the form of "Pick vs Team" or "Pick @ Team". Users are always picking the first team listed.
For example, if the dropdown shows "Michigan vs Texas", Michigan is the home team, Texas is the visiting team, and the user would be picking Michigan. Likewise, if it were Michigan @ Ohio State, Michigan is the visiting team, Ohio State is the home team, and the user would be picking Michigan.

Adjusted CSS to make tables (view picks and user conference status) responsive. This should make the mobile experience better.

Fixed the incorrectly-working password reset link. Users should no longer see an error after they click the button to reset their passwords.
